Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Misplaced Pages. When you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 01:23, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

talk page reverts

Please don't do any reverts on my talk page. Thank you. --IIIraute (talk) 04:38, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

But if you have other examples of IIIraute engaging in revenge-reverting then I'd like to see them, preferably on your own talk page, here. If it's a pattern and it's serious enough then a report at WP:AN/I or, depending on topic area, WP:AE, might be in order.Volunteer Marek (talk) 09:13, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

Yes, I'd like to see them too! --IIIraute (talk) 14:45, 2 May 2014 (UTC)

User:Volunteer Marek please look at the asmallworld talk page, also if you look through the history of his talk page his has been warned numerous numerous times for harassment, edit warring etc. I think it is more than enough, it is bullying in my opinion (Mostlyoksorta (talk) 10:39, 2 May 2014 (UTC))

User:Volunteer Marek https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=ASmallWorld&diff=prev&oldid=606549753 - he blanked a section merely because I created it, even though it is mentioned in both the NY Post and NY Daily News (Mostlyoksorta (talk) 15:09, 2 May 2014 (UTC))

https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=ASmallWorld&diff=prev&oldid=605661610 - he changed the factual numerical figure with an subjective opinion without any citation, merely because I made the edit. (Mostlyoksorta (talk) 15:09, 2 May 2014 (UTC))

https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=ASmallWorld&diff=prev&oldid=606547977 - he blanked my edit which cited to ASW's own membership application page only because I made the edit - anyone who tries to apply to ASW can see that it is a membership application, he is provoking a dispute by saying "it is an application to receive an invitation"?!?! (Mostlyoksorta (talk) 15:09, 2 May 2014 (UTC))

Also, if you look through his talk page history you will see multiple investigations, warnings, etc for edit warring, harassment, etc. (Mostlyoksorta (talk) 15:09, 2 May 2014 (UTC))

May 2014

Hi, Mostlyoksorta. I noticed your posts on Talk:ASmallWorld. You really need to start focusing on content, not the contributor, in talkpage discussion. Please see the policy No personal attacks. For instance, this edit is very personal and very rude, and I notice you repeated it on two user talk pages as well. (Avoid quoting yourself at length, please, even if you're not attacking someone.) In this edit, you restored a post by another user that IIIraute had just removed. This is counter to talkpage guidelines (users can remove whatever they like from their own talkpages) and pure harassment as far as I can see. Please edit more collaboratively or you may be blocked.

I haven't had time to look at the dispute on ASmallWorld itself or form an opinion about it, but I'll just note that you seem to have had a certain amount of trouble with sourcing and WP:SYNTH. (Please click on that link and read, it's important.)

By the way, your statements about the Faceplant2020 account are worrying. "I am not the same person… I know that person … We did discuss edits together, which as far as I know is ok." No, off-site collusion is not OK, please read WP:MEAT. Apparently you're closely enough connected to that account that you're able to affirm that "Faceplant2020 will stay out the deletion debate if that makes you happy". In such a situation, it doesn't make much difference if you're actually the same person or not. I've blocked Faceplant2020 as a sockpuppet. Bishonen | talk 09:43, 2 May 2014 (UTC).

Bishonen thanks for the constructive comments, I hope your actions regarding blocking Faceplant2020 finally put an end to the badgering I have received regarding that, I am happy to move on. (Mostlyoksorta (talk) 13:38, 2 May 2014 (UTC))
