Figuring out Misplaced Pages, part 1
hi Gershidze. About this edit note, please know that nobody has personal authority in Misplaced Pages, because a) we strictly protect the anonymity of editors (unless they want to reveal their real life identify and validate it - see WP:REALNAME, and b) on the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog. The only thing that matters is the quality of your edits, and they in turn are measured by the quality of sources you cite and how well you summarize accepted knowledge, neutrally. It takes some time to figure this place out. I'll be happy to help you, if you like. That said I also have to tell you about something about all the articles related to e-cigs in Misplaced Pages, which I will do in the next section. Jytdog (talk) 08:04, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Figuring out Misplaced Pages part 3
OK so above I just gave you notice of the "discretionary sanctions" that are in place in Misplaced Pages about e-cigs, everywhere there are discussed here. E-cigs has turned out to be a very controversial topic in Misplaced Pages, and a whole knot of problems ended up in front of our "supreme court" which is called the Arbitration Committee. As a result, it is really important to go slow editing in this topic. If you edit aggressively, making big changes or breaking the policies and guidelines that govern content and behavior here in Misplaced Pages, you can get blocked, topic-banned, or indefinitely banned pretty quickly. So please, go slow.
I am going to revert the big changes you just made, as they were too much all at once. Please go slow, and learn to walk before you try to run. That means - please consider making small edits, see how they go, and go from there. Step by step.... We have no deadline here, there is no hurry. Good luck! Jytdog (talk) 08:09, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
