Dear Bastun,

Greetings! Thank you for your review on my bio article about Murillo de Aragão. I am trying to locate the draft version of it so I can make the changes you suggested, but I am not managing to find it.
Hi Bastun. I am trying to keep out of a certain editor's way as much as possible to protect what remains of my sanity, but as you were involved in the discussion above I'd be interested in your take on the usage "X was a Member/]..." which seems to have crept into a few articles. I would propose that the form ] would be more in keeping with the MedCab resolution (as I read it) and also with our MoS. Finally, I'd be interested in your take on ; my understanding obviously differs from that of this user's. It may seem like a fairly trivial stylistic matter, but I think it's a shame to go through all the good work that seems to have been done in MedCab only to have the result (apparently) misrepresented like this. Any light you can shed on this would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, --] 23:08, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

:Dear Bastun, greetings once again!
::::''Where the initial definition occurs in the lead section, it should firstly be stated that a person is a member of the IRA. The term volunteer should then normally be mentioned. Lower case "v" should be used for the time being. In the main text of an article the word, volunteer, is free to be used, but this has to be judged in each particular instance to achieve maximum sense and good style. It should not be used rigidly and other terms such as "IRA member" can also be used or any other appropriate reference. Different terms can be interspersed, and may vary from article to article. Please do not modify it. Shyam (T/C) 11:46, 7 February 2007 (UTC)''

See the end of ]. This puts Vk in the clear for his usage of V since on that article - no one responded to his final statement in that talk page section. However, it hasn't achieved a consensus as such which can be enforced, so it is open to further debate still. ] 12:34, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

::I didn't revert anyone, so no point asking me :P As regards the "5 editors", that's stretching things a bit - I think some of them were minor enough edits, e.g., correcting typos? Its common practice to request a block when an edit war is underway (and indeed, more grounds for it with the ArbCom case). ''Which'' version is the one that gets locked is irrelevant (as is made clear by the template that gets put on the page). As far as I understand it, it'll be whatever one is there when/if an admin locks it, but that has no bearing on which is the "proper" one - that gets debated on the Talk page and consensus rules.

== RE. Blatantly Incorrect edit summary ==
Having received an on the background to my first from ] I have recognised where all the suspicion and accusations have come from but I just thought I should point out to you that in my eagerness to edit a page successfully, I took my time and copied and pasted the introduction from the page and essentially tinkered with the formatting, my contribution and previewed endlessly, several days in fact, before I posted my edit and was totally unaware that the page had moved on from what it had been when I started. As ] pointed out to me in the above explanation I had reverted to a version of the page editted by ] and so I have concluded through searching the history of the article that the version of the page I was working from was possibly one and considering that from my view it is evident that I merely added some 400 bytes nowhere near the 70kb you suggested. However I can totally see how from your the changes were substantial. Therefore I accept your view that my summary appeared incorrect, however I would also like you to accept that from my perspective it was a small contribution and my edit summary was in no way intended to deceive or misinform anyone on WP and please take ] into consideration. Kind regards --] 04:16, 22 July 2007 (UTC) PS besides the confusion was there anything else wrong with my edit any advice on my contribution would be welcome

Why did you remove made edit - I am seriously unimpressed with this.--] 14:29, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
:Users are free to remove comments from their talk page at their own leisure. That said, it's considered very bad taste to remove portions of comments in a way that might be misleading. ] 14:31, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
::But as the diff points out - it wasn't my talk page. Apologies, Vintagekits. I think what happened there was I meant to copy and paste part of your comment to use in my reply and ended up cutting and pasting instead. Not my intention. ]<sup>]</sup> 14:35, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
:::Fair enough, I accept then that it was a genuine mistake.--] 14:41, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
