* Apologies for that. I was reverting a vandal edit in this page (Content replaced by swears). I have no idea what went wrong with this rollback, as the history of the page shows no vandalisation that i could have reverted. I guess i reverted an incorrect page here.

Just a small point, it's not even important really, but on Misplaced Pages there's a difference between blocking and banning. ] is prevention of editing, like with vandals while ] is more serious, it means that the user is not welcome at all (they are usually blocked as well). Their edits are usually characteristic (they are interested in a particular topic) and they are persitently disruptive. Nonetheless, you have definitely earned a barnstar for your anti-vandalism. Keep it up! <font face="comic sans ms" color="#454545">]</font><sup>] &#124; ]</sup> 13:17, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

* I have been patrolling for just two days, so im really honoured by already receiving this award. I understood the difference between "Banning" and "Blocking" alreay, buy i generally confuse the terms when writing them down. I tend to use "Banning" when refering to infinite blocks for users, and "Blocking" for everything else. Still, thanks for the clarification of the terms, and again a huge thanks for the barnstar, which will make its way to my user page at once :)

I am not sure if you are aware, but comparing a hippie to weirdo is not similar to calling Fatah al Islam resistance. Fatah al Islam is an Al Qaida inspired organization which targeted and murdered hundreds of Lebanese civilians. Can you explain to me how you consider this resistance, and can you explain why the US State Dept. has added them to their terror list and why they are all either dead or in prison awaiting trial in Lebanon right now for their involvement in terrorism?

:* The opinion of the united states is not an absolute truth opinion. Many countries in the middle east will see Fatah Al Islam as a resistance group. If you seriously want to use the word terrorist, at least keep a neutral point of view by adding a reference. You could also think about changing the line to something that denoted that there is a specific group claiming that the group is terrorist. Dont get me wrong, i personally agree with you, but opinions don't matter on encyclopaedic content. --] 06:43, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

::* What countries are you talking about, even Hezbollah considers them a terrorist organization??? The only ones who would consider them resistance are the enemies of Lebanon. I've never heard of a country supporting Fatah al Islam or calling them a legitimate resistance movement. They targetted Lebanese civilians. They were foreign fighters coming from Syria, Saudi Arabia, with Palestinians as well but who are they resisting and how do you figure people assume this of them, are you talking about Al Qaida? Please research them further and let me know which countries consider them a legitimate resistance movement, I've never heard of this. --] 06:49, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

:::* Ok, ok, i guess you are right. I was indeed referring to the enemies of Lebanon when i made my previous post. In all due honesty i expected that this was a mindless alteration without sources, as i see rather regular. Im not sure if its already done, but please add the link you provided to me as a reference next to the word terrorist, so that it remains a NPov article :) --] 06:51, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
