About removing items from your talk page
Hi, I noticed that you removed the note I left you earlier today, asking you not to remove tags like {{categorize}} from articles unless you had solved the issue that the tag addressed. Although it's not a policy, it is common courtesy not to delete talk page items unless you have at least responded to them. From Misplaced Pages:Talk_pages#User_talk_pages:
- Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages without replying (if a reply would be appropriate or polite) will probably be interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil...
If you didn't understand something that I wrote, feel free to ask me. But in general, you should leave comments on your talk page (or on a talk page archive) unless they're harassment or personal attacks. | Mr. Darcy talk 01:33, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
