Hey Kosh. There are so many issue with that statement that I felt it important to drop by. | |||
*{{xt|policy '''should ''' be enforced '''as written'''}} - from a high level ] is a guideline and ] is policy. The principle is what matters, not exact wording of the rules. Disputes are solved by discussion, not strict adherence to the rules. Does that make sense? The "rules" are just a description of what's happened before and likely will happen again... generally the right thing to do, but not be followed blindly. No matter whether you're right or wrong on the underlying issue, not understanding this fundamental principle is the reason you are blocked. | |||
*So, on to the underlying issue. Is the content on page in violation of POLEMIC? Honestly, I'd say no. POLEMIC '''in bold''' refers to '''Very divisive or offensive material not related to encyclopedia editing'''. Is what he's saying offensive? Barely. Very divisive? Not really. ''AND'' it's related to encyclopedic editing. It just doesn't fit in that section. It's not targeted at individuals or a specific group, let alone attacking or vilifying them. It's not a pre-meditated nasty attack, it's a person ranting on their way out the door. I don't agree with a word of it, but it's important to let people express themselves in situations like that. | |||
This way of thinking is fundamental to Misplaced Pages, it's why IAR exists. ]<sup>TT</sup>(]) 11:15, 29 September 2015 (UTC) | |||

:Oh, I've finally seen it. I don't know what I was looking at last time but I feel it was a wrongful deletion on my part. The image is graffiti on a wall, and therefore it's too original for it to be a copyright violation. The colour's different, there's sufficient original lighting, and it's at an angle. It's a bit like using an image of a work of art. If it's not over 100 years old, then I can't use a photo of it; but if it's my own original photo, taken with original lighting and distance, it would be my own work. If you strongly disagree with my decision, I'd take it to ], but if you do, please notify me and paste this comment on the page. Hope this helps. Best, ] ] 16:55, 10 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

== "Say no to fair use" == | |||
== From your user page == | |||
Have you ever considered that Fair Use is actually a freer system than GFDL? Fair use has a history under US law. Copyleft, as far as I can tell, does not. What happens if someone says "I change my mind?" I don't know - it hasn't been tested in court. More importantly, of course, we have thousands of images in Misplaced Pages which are tagged as GFDL, and ownership is claimed by a person known only by their username. If you were a company interested in reusing Misplaced Pages content (ie, one with real assets that made it worth suing), would you really trust an image tagged by a person known only by a username? | |||
It's complicated, but I don't think that fair use is necessarily less free than GFDL. ] (]) 20:11, 10 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

== Misplaced Pages Articles == | |||
Hi, Misplaced Pages articles are intended to be the products of teamwork. No article should be owned by one Misplaced Pages editor in particular. Am I correct about this? Thanks. ] (]) 18:49, 12 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
== Vandalism warnings == | |||
Hello! | |||
I noticed that you have been placing vandalism warnings on some editors' talk pages after some edits that couldn't really be considered vandalism. Here are some examples: | |||
* was placed on the editor's page in regards to of his. That edit was constructive. | |||
* with regards to this editor's edits on article ]. He made no non-constructive edits there. | |||
Also, barring some other aggravating circumstance, 1 warning is usually enough for 1 non-constructive edit. You have placed several warnings on user's talk pages after they were already warned about that edit. Examples: , , , and others. | |||
Please be careful to check if a warning has been placed on the userpage already and, if it has, consider the user properly warned until their next non-constructive edits. Adding to that, if some other than yourself actually reverted the vandalism edit, chances are that they will be the one to place the warning on the vandal's talk page anyways so just keep an eye out for that. | |||
But the most important thing to remember, by far, is to make as certain as you possibly can to never incorrectly accuse someone of vandalism. When in doubt, refer to ], the official Misplaced Pages policy on vandalism to help you determine if it is or if it isn't vandalism or feel free to ask someone for a second opinion. | |||
Thanks! ] <small>(] • ])</small> 17:43, 13 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
:I'm sorry, but I hope the fact that I incorrectly wrote ''user<nowiki>'</nowiki>s'' instead of ''users<nowiki>'</nowiki>'' doesn't change the fact that , , , were warnings placed by you on other users' talk pages after they were already warned about a specific edit. You've been duplicating warnings and that's what I was trying to say. Check those links and you'll see what I'm talking about. | |||
:Also, I'm afraid that edit is not vandalism. It's not sourced, it may be a BLP violation but it's not vandalism even though warning stated that it was. ] requires an edit to be made ''in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Misplaced Pages'' which the above edit fails to prove to obviousness of such an intent. | |||
:I'm not trying to be a dick either but your warnings were incorrectly placed and I was trying to nicely inform you of that. Please do be more careful in the future. ] <small>(] • ])</small> 18:18, 13 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
::Hey there! | |||
::No intention of beating a dead horse but I want to come back to edit. First of all, the subject of the article is dead, therefore, ] doesn't exactly apply here as strictly as it would if he were alive. Second, many men have female sounding nicknames and it shouldn't be immediately assumed that it's derogatory if a statement like that is made. A simple two step process might have led you to find out that there was no vandalism in that edit. In the first step, you could notice that the article, even before the editor in question got to it, mentions racing stables named ''Eve Stud Ltd'' after which the editor suggests that ''Eve'' is the male owner's nickname. In the second step, you could perform a Google search from which you might come across article which specifically states ''In India Sir Victor raced under the pseudonym of 'Mr Eve'. When he established a stud at Newmarket he named it the Eve Stud.'' I agree that the above editor should have provided the reference but there are other ways to deal with a situation like that. Accusing him of vandalism is the most incorrect way possible because that's as ] as one can get towards a newcomer. | |||
::Anyways, I'm glad you see my point of why we need to be careful about things like these. | |||

Trivial changes are not protection, and she did not always make said changes: for instance, look at the sentence in the first comparison beginning "Lake Kimilili is surrounded by sparse C3 shrubland dominated by Alchemilla, Helichrysum, and Dendrosenecio..." That's a very long passsage where the changes are as likely as not accidental, as that book cannot be copy-pasted from. The third diff has one complete sentence, unchanged at all, and one sentence that is simply slighly abridged from the original. ] (]) 16:42, 20 June 2008 (UTC) Nor did I show everything.

In the end, the entire last two sections differ from the source only in a single word, and in having some footnote numbers stripped in one paragraph. There's similar copy-paste elsewhere. Please strike your comment, you were clearly unaware of the situation. | |||

== Support request with team editing experiment project == | |||
== Thanks == | |||
Dear tech ambassadors, instead of spamming the Village Pump of each Misplaced Pages about my tiny project proposal for researching team editing (see here: ), I have decided to leave to your own discretion if the matter is relevant enough to inform a wider audience already. I would appreciate if you could appraise if the Misplaced Pages community you are more familiar with could have interest in testing group editing "on their own grounds" and with their own guidance. In a nutshell: it consists in editing pages as a group instead of as an individual. This social experiment might involve redefining some aspects of the workflow we are all used to, with the hope of creating a more friendly and collaborative environment since editing under a group umbrella creates less social exposure than traditional "individual editing". I send you this message also as a proof that the Inspire Campaign is already gearing up. As said I would appreciate of *you* just a comment on the talk page/endorsement of my noting your general perception about the idea. Nothing else. Your contribution helps to shape the future! (which I hope it will be very bright, with colors, and Misplaced Pages everywhere) Regards from on meta. | |||

:::::Put your dunce cap on, buddy, because that's the exact situation I was talking about. Nothing was "proven", so I don't know where you came up with that. It's laughably absurd to think that the edit he made with the alt account would have been a tactic at sock puppetry. Everyone knows by now that Beta uses more than one computer, he even has a "Betacommand 2" something account for the sake of some customized monobook or javascript setting. When he made the edit with the wrong account he did so without hiding who he was. He posted under that different account ''as'' himself, acting as he was just moments before. Given the way people have been treating him, it's no surprise, whatsoever, that he would have wanted to make a new account to start fresh with. | |||
Master KoshVarlon, I didn't think that my splittings would become such a big deal. I made such splits on ], ], ], just to name a few, and didn't imagine that I would be bullied and shouted around, because there aren't that many users who patrol the talk pages, so I decided to be bold and split them. The user who has reported me is not a bad person, but I think this is just diminiutive and disparaging, concerning my lengthy experience, working here on Misplaced Pages, and also it is delay for the work on these articles. I beg you not to block me, because in fact, I intend to continue such work and splits of lengthy bibliographies and in fact to be more uncompromising with the user who reported me, because I kind of look at the whole matter more as a "cavil retail" than a serious Misplaced Pages matter. | |||
