If what you are about to write here ...
... actually belongs on the talk page of an article, please put it there, not here! Thank you! --SergeWoodzing (talk) 15:25, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
If you are in a bad mood ...
... (like anybody can be once in a while) please don't be condescending, sarcastic, belligerent or rude here! Thank you! --SergeWoodzing (talk) 15:25, 9 March 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Princess Margaretha of Sweden may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 ""s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
- List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
- | <center>]]{{clear}}Marital arms of Princess Margaretha of Sweden and Denmark
- | <center>]]{{clear}}Arms as displayed in ] in ]</center>
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 09:45, 13 March 2016 (UTC)
The ANI
Hi SergeWoodzing! I wanted to leave you a message to give you a hug and offer my empathy regarding your frustration at the ANI today. In the thread, I tried to provide a level-headed response and explain where opportunities could have been improved on both sides of the table. However, before I could offer you my personal assistance and diffuse the situation for everybody involved, other responses were posted on the ANI that were absolutely not constructive or acceptable from a participant at ANI, and they made the situation much much worse (the opposite of what I was trying to do). I completely understand your frustration today, as well as the fact that the ANI thread left you feeling even more frustrated, even more attacked and criticized, and with your feelings left completely ignored.
Speaking on behalf of the administrators and experienced editors that participate at ANI: ...we are expected to assume good faith, listen to both sides of the story, diffuse the situation, offer a level-headed and local analysis of the situation without jumping to conclusions or taking sides, and do our best to make sure that the discussion ends with everyone involved feeling satisfied and listened to. I feel like this did not happen in your ANI discussion today. And for that, I'm very very sorry, and I feel very disappointed that you were treated the way that you were. While I feel that the discussion started off in a fair manner, and with fair statements made, it certainly did not end this way. We missed an opportunity to demonstrate the leadership and maturity that comes with being an experienced editor, and we failed at our job.
I encourage you to take some time, let emotions and frustrations cool down, and allow yourself to move on and (hopefully) take some part of this (even if it's very small) and see it as a positive learning experience. I also want you to know that my talk page is always open to you, and that you're more than welcome to message me if you want to talk, if you have concerns that you want to express, or if you need someone to help you with anything. I promise that I will treat with respect and I will do my best to help you with anything that you need regarding Misplaced Pages. I hope you have a good weekend, and I wish you happy editing :-) ~Oshwah~ 03:09, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
