Warnings

Please refrain from abusing warning or blocking templates. Doing so is a violation of Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Please use the user warnings sandbox for any tests you may want to do, or take a look at our introduction page to learn more about contributing to the encyclopedia. Just because I trout slapped you doesn't make me vandal. Trout slaps are for when users who need to change their editing style. You do need to change your style. You constantly attack people and call them names. It got you blocked once already, and you're lucky that it was only once. if you don't stop you'll get permently blocked. And rember you can't warn people just because you don't like their edits. 74.89.58.36 (talk) 02:18, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

On a side note, I'm suprised you didn't complain about being blocked. 74.89.58.36 (talk) 02:20, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

ARE YOU SERIOUS? I am not vandalizing anything. It will be a lot easier to get you blocked then me right now 74.89.58.36 (talk) 02:23, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Please be careful when rolling back

... in case you undo a valid edit, such as here ("diamer" was correctly altered to "diameter", which you undid). --Redrose64 (talk) 21:27, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Warning

Please stay away from User talk:74.89.58.36‎. You were unpleasant to them before, they were unpleasant to you, and both of you have been blocked recently. 74.89 has undertaken to stay away from you; it would be a very good idea for you to stay away from 74.89. → ROUX ₪ 01:48, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

October 2010

Please do not attack other editors, as you did here: Signs (film). If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. You were just blocked because you attacked people. Why are you doing it again? JDDJS (talk) 20:53, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Excuse Me

I'm only trying to be productive by informing potential readers about certain dilemmas they may face while remaining unbiased when doing so. I'm sorry if that's a problem, sir. 207.199.247.19 (talk) 00:28, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Suicide of Tyler Clementi. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 03:53, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Question

why did you undo the blanking of User talk:67.78.133.90? Not only does (s)he have the right to blank their talk page, but the IP hasn't even edited since December 2006. JDDJS (talk) 22:44, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Please review WP:BLANK. Users, even IPs, have the right to blank their own talk pages. Thank you. Doniago (talk) 12:57, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Blocking 86.96.227.103

FYI: I blocked this IP based on your very appropriate report at WP:AIV but I then un-blocked it when I saw it belonged to Emirates Telecommunications Corporation. Like some other Middle Eastern countries, the UAE has a national firewall. Some of these countries as a result funnel thousands of users through just a few IPs. I don't know if ETC does this but I didn't want to take any chances; overzealous admins have sometimes caused extensive collateral damage blocking these sorts of IP addresses from some Persian Gulf countries. --A.

I HAVE HAD IT WITH YOU SABOTYSING MY EFFOTS CAUSE YOU DON`T LIKE THE CTING, WHAT YOU AR DOING IS EITHER BULYING OR MISLEADING PEOPLE, YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF!! Reviewreviewer1 (talk) 01:16, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Barnstar

		The Resilient Barnstar
		Well this my be the first and possibly only time I give a barnstar to someone I posted on WP:AIV in the past. But now it appears you learned from your past mistakes. Not counting that one slip up on signs, you have avoided personnel attacks, even though a user (Reviewreviewer1) was attacking you. This is for your improvment and please don't have a relapse or else I'll have to give you different type of reward JDDJS (talk) 04:56, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Message

Reverting my edits

Why are you reverting my edits? Does having a different and a logical point of view bothers you? For example, "She" by Green Day is definetly pop punk. Why do you keep reverting my edits? You're the one who deserves to be edit blocked. Who the fuck are you to block me? I didn't even edit that page anymore! Stop being such a motherfucker and understand that you aren't allowed to revert other people's edits just because you don't like them! --Revilal90 (talk) 11:36, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Thought you'll find this amusing

I was looking threw your contributions to make sure you weren't attacking users. At first, I thought you did on Talk:Insomniac (Green Day album), but luckly I realized that you wrote "assess" and not "asses" JDDJS (talk) 18:59, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

DYK nomination of Derrick Locke

Hello, your nomination of Derrick Locke at DYK was reviewed and comments provided. --NortyNort (Holla) 08:44, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Ok, I responded back there as well.--NortyNort (Holla) 11:14, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Please try your very best not to use snitty and ad hominem edit summaries

No. I am not the world. But, if you follow the news, you will see that, for example, wearing purple on october 20th, was spurred in part by the perceived bullying of Tyler Clementi among others. So do, please, try to keep a sense of reality in your edits, and politeness in the summaries. I can't be bothered to revert you. I disagree with you, but life is too short.IOn the words of Herb Cohen, "I care, but not that much." Fiddle Faddle (talk) 16:56, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

However, I can be "bothered" to revert you. This can be rebuffed by reliable sources (obviously since it's a template, I won't be putting them on the page itself, but I'll repeat them here...) - "Three young men, three suicides, three cases of anti-gay bullying", "Teen bullied for being gay" and "Tyler Clementi, Rutgers freshman who committed suicide after gay bullying, could have fought back" are all examples of reliable sources suggesting that the suicide of Tyler Clementi was due to gay bullying. Even Ellen DeGeneres thinks so - "It's time to end teenage bullying". Sure, 100% of the world's population won't know about the Tyler Clementi incident, but to say that the suicide wasn't as a result of anti-gay sentiment is not in line with the reliable sources available.

Mellencamp on DYK

Hi PM800. Got your DYK message. Thanks for approving R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A. I understand your concern about multiple songs by the same artist in a short period of time. How about this... if you approve Crumblin' Down (assuming you think the date, sourcing, etc. are OK, of course) I'll hold off on any more Mellencamp nominations until December at the earliest. I've got a big list of other, non-Mellencamp articles to create, I've got no problem switching to them. Reasonable compromise? 28bytes (talk) 01:49, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Hockey awards navboxes

Please stop creating these. We have debated their use many times before, and have found in the hockey project that they are neither useful nor desirable. I am putting the Richard and Art Ross templates up for deletion. Please discuss at WT:HOCKEY if you wish to try and build a new consensus that endorses their existence. Thanks, Resolute 06:11, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Tyler Clementi

You seem to have some sort of idea that the suicide of Tyler Clementi was not related to bullying and was not notable. You make a point of removing his suicide form a relevant template, and the template form the article.

I, and it would appear others, will continue to revert you on this. Should you continue to remove these things without using the talk page to justify your actions I will start to consider it to be vandalism and flag it as such, however experienced an editor you are. If you truly think it has no place as a notable suicide related to bullying, reach a consensus over it. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 09:47, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
