==MedCab case==
Hi there. Per your decision not to participate in the MedCab case on spoiler templates, I really think it would be for the best if you did engage. It looks quite likely that the final outcome of the discussion will be substantial changes to the guideline, and I think it's best that as many interested parties are involved as possible. It would be very counter-productive if you didn't participate, and the consensus ended up being one you didn't agree with, and the whole argument got re-opened afterwards. I think it would be much better to settle this now. -] 20:28, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

== clarification ==

hello Phil. with regards to your comment , is the version which passed FA and was accepted by the community. the main difference between this version and more recent versions is that unilateral and controversial rewrites were instituted in various sections, without discussion, proposal nor an effort to seek consensus beforehand. please also refer to the ] itself. in fact, this is the very cause of the current edit warring, some of the users are restoring sections from the initial article that passed FAC, and others are restoring sections from latter controversial rewrites. though the Jihad section was pretty much settled, the other rewrites (Family life, Other religions) have not been, and have been disputed since their insertions respectively. ] 18:27, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
==]==
This one turned up on the whatlinkshere for ] but I'm not removing those tags for now because in my opinion this article may have deeper problems and arguing over tagging would distract from their resolution.

is the article as I found it. In my opinion the preamble is not really suitable for the article. It looks like an essay about the role of imaginary books, and libraries in general, in fantasy fiction. I removed that and replaced it with a very brief descriptive paragraph, followed by the reference to an essay by ] that at least does belong in the article, though probably not the lead.

This is more your field, I think, so I'd be grateful if you could check it and see if I'm on the right track. --] 17:58, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

=="Misleading edit summary"==
Look, I'll grant that maybe it was ambiguous, but I don't think it was, and certainly didn't intend it to be deliberately misleading. I am sorry if you were misled. I also think that "misleading edit summaries" refers more to edit summaries that are destructively misleading, such as making major changes to an article, and marking them as minor, or seriously mislabelling them (eg: to avoid the attention of the RC-patrol). In this case, simply glancing at the diff should have been enough for you (or anyone else) to see that what I meant was that I made a few changes in my original edit and that Tony had a problem with part of them, but reverted the whole thing. '''That''''s bordering on being disruptive, and is certainly behaviour likely to engender edit wars. -] 01:16, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

== Craft of Research ==

Hello Phil,

My name is Andrey Stanislavskiy (Mr.). I am trying to built Misplaced Pages entries about professors Joseph Williams and Gregory Colomb, authors of ''The Craft of Research''. While doing so, I encountered your user page ''Phil Sandifer/Craft of Research''. I think it would be good to create a special page on the book, and I feel the material on your page would well serve the purpose. As I am a novice on Misplaced Pages, I am afraid I cannot do this right on my own.

If you are interested, please check pages for Wayne C. Booth, Gregory G. Colomb, and Joseph M. Williams and help me in making the page and links for this great source, ''The Craft of Research''.

About myself: I was born and reside in Ukraine, my native language is Russian. I am a freelance translator from English.

I wonder if you'd like to take a look at Rambutan's recent edits on this article. I'm trying to trim speculation and references to gossip while retaining relevant and well sourced information.

: Rambutan asked me on IRC to take a look at his unblock request. I denied it, but he makes a good point that restoring wiki-links to articles that exist is hardly a revert in the normal sense.

== Invitation to participate in a research ==
I'm afraid your edit was misguided. The controversy section SHOULD remain - you have removed a large portion of the article, whereas, if you felt the section violated WP:BLP, it would have made more sense to remove the individual's name instead and make reference to "a teacher"; rather than blanking a whole section, which smacks of vandalism to me. The section is relevant, as the matter was of great public interest, also it concerned a public figure, the leader of a world famous choir. Indeed, it did not contain, to paraphrase yourself, "scandal and gossip", it is factual, referenced, material (as per ]). You claim it is not "substantially important to the college" - this seems to be a rather ignorant remark, as I'm sure the implications of such a case being in the public eye and the substantial ramifications for the College would be obvious to anybody - it IS a significant event in the recent history of the College, despite the fact it might not sit well with some editors. Edits reverted. Please do not blank these sections again unless you can provide some further discussion on the Talk page FIRST. ] 14:38, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
:Fair enough, it seems an admin agrees with you on this point. I'll not revert it again, however I'm still of the view that ] is in places ambiguous in that it can both support and decry the addition of such facts concerning persons notable in such a way as we're discussing, depending upon how you choose to approach the policy. I'll consider it in conjunction with any other applicable policies in a day or two to see if it's worthy of a bringing a case before WP:RFAr. If not, I'll just quietly slink away...!

Any thoughts about this? I removed a heap of stuff that looked to have been copied directly from the site itself, and tagged the rest as unsourced. My main question is: Is this just a group of friends with a shared blog and some comics, or is it more significant than that?

Obviously stuff like this ought to go:

== ArbCom 2024 Elections voter message ==
after reading your userpage, it is quite clear that you are not particularly happy with the way wikipedia is run. wikipedia is all about compromise more than anything else because so many different people have opposing views on what a page should look like. from your attitude towards the Barry Bonds page, you do not seem to be willing to have a discussion. The page exists in its current format for a reason, people have agreed upon it and it works. Although you may not like the page as it is, you cannot simply edit it yourself because YOU do not like it. There needs to be broad agreement that the introduction is too long, rather than you simply changing it yourself. I do agree slightly that the opening looks a bit wordy, but also do not agree that just taking out all the records is the way forward. One of the main sticking points with Bonds is that statistically he is the greatest baseball player of all time, so there should be a lot of stats in the opening most probably. I hope you do not edit the page again without consulting people. it is easy to leave a message on the talkpage and see if you have any allies regarding the changes you want to make, then a discussion can be had and a conclusion reached.

ArbCom 2023 Elections voter message

Hello! Voting in the 2023 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 11 December 2023. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve.

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
