| Because this is my own user talk page, I have certain rules and standards as to how I like to maintain it. | |||
| :(1) Comments made by me are non-italicized | |||
| :(2) Comments made by others are italicized | |||
| :(3) If there is a Misplaced Pages issue I am currently involved in, I prefer to keep tabs on the situation by including information surrounding the issue as content on this page for future and present reference (as necessary). This may mean the inclusion of Misplaced Pages exchanges between others involved in the issue at hand. After the issue is resolved, I will archive the information. | |||
| :(4) IT IS NOT THE RIGHT OF ANOTHER WIKIPEDIAN TO TAKE IT UPON THEMSELVES TO REMOVE CONTENT FROM, OR CHANGE CONTENT ON, MY TALK PAGE (not to mention it's against Misplaced Pages policy). If you have a problem with something I have placed on my talk page regarding the issue I (or we) may be involved in, please ] first and then discuss the matter with me before jumping to conclusions and making erroneous and/or bad faith assumptions. | |||
| :(5) While I may remove content placed on this page that originates from exchanges elsewhere, I will never edit what someone what written in order to change the tone of what was written or to make someone look bad. Again, if you have an issue with what I have included here (or have not included), please ] first and then discuss the matter with me before jumping to conclusions and making erroneous and/or bad faith assumptions. | |||
| :(6) It is my intent to keep my talk page organized, orderly and in compliance with Misplaced Pages standards regarding ]. This means that I reserve the right to include what I choose - so long as it complies with Misplaced Pages standards - and will, in the same vein, remove what I choose. | |||
| :(7) Anything added to this talk page by another editor that is not in regard to an article being edited or is outside the guildelines for ] will be seen as disruptive editing and the appropriate steps will be taken within Misplaced Pages guidelines - including issuing warnings as appropriate and in line with Misplaced Pages standards. | |||
| :(8) Last, but not least, don't even think of vandalizing this page. Any vandalism will be reverted immediately and get you reported to the ]. Additionally, doing so will jeopardize your Misplaced Pages account and may get you banned from posting - so don't even try, okay? | |||
| Thanks for your understanding - may your Misplaced Pages edits be correct, well-referenced and relevant and may you have a great Misplaced Pages day! | |||

| {{unblock reviewed|I am pretty sure I did not violate 3RR as the edit I made this morning to ] was not a revert. I edited the portion that was contested by two other editors yesterday and provided a compromise with both statements re: the info contained in the Certificate of Live Birth (which was already listed as a reference before I edited the section) and the existing statement re: the info about whether or not Manson was ever referred to as "No Name". Although I did replace the section which was edited yesterday by me - IMO, it never should have been reverted to begin with as it was not incorrect and actually improved the improper order of events, the bad grammar and poor syntax that existed before my edits. The only portion that was actually contested by one other editor (the birth certificate information) was not replaced by me today in the same verbiage as existed yesterday - as I stated above, it was corrected to contain a clearer picture regarding the COLB - but it was an edited version. Ergo, there was no revert, just editing and resubmitting in a better, more compromising form. Believe me, I never would have made the edit at all today if I thought it would be seen as a revert putting me in violation of 3RR. Finally, the admin who blocked me stated this was my second offense. As I understood it at the time, when I was blocked previously it was not considered an actual block. It lasted for a very short period of time as the block was reconsidered. Additionally, I had not been blocked correctly to begin with - there was no template and there was no provision to contest a block. It was not a reasonable block, it was not an exercised block, and it was not a proper block. IOW - it was never really a block to begin with. Ergo, this is not my "second offense", but actually my first actual block. I hope the preceding is clear - if not, please feel free to ask any questions.|decline=You were not blocked for 3RR, you were blocked for edit warring.

| {{unblock|Well, color me confused. Although the above *does* state "edit warring" (and it was my error for not really seeing that previously), the warning I received from LaVidaLoca was for 3RR (that was the header on my talk page), not edit warring. So...if I didn't violate 3RR, why did I get a warning for 3RR and why are other editors gossipping that I was blocked for 3RR? But, I digress... It was never my intention to edit war with my edit at the ] article this morning, rather, it was just about editing the article and working out what was a problem in the article for the other editor and what was a problem for me content-wise. Now, I understand that by writing another request for unblock that I need to somehow convince you that I now understand why I was blocked (which I do) and to state that I will not repeat the action that got me blocked (which I won't), however... That's kind of a problem since I don't believe I was actually edit warring to begin with. As I stated above, my intent was never to edit war, but to work out a compromise with my edits. The fact remains that the editor who originally reverted my entire edit (and we're talking a lot of editing in an entire section in a very long article) should never have reverted the *entire* edit. He didn't like just one thing I changed, and rather than removing that, he reverted the entire section I edited. From what I could see, that defied common-sense and was essentially a knee-jerk reaction in a throw-out-the-baby-with-the-bathwater kind of fashion. I didn't understand it, I tried to reason with him on the article's ]. His response was "I'm not working against you — and if you'll permit me to say, I'm not interested in working with you." Okay - so I knew where he stood. He wasn't interested in allowing me to edit the article and would then revert everything I edited. So, I ask you - how can one then go on trying to honestly and productively edit an article if you know that an editor who hangs out at that article is going to revert pretty much everything you do? Does on continue to just edit anyway? Or does one cower and shrink into a corner and stop editing that article? It didn't seem right to me to just stop editing the article, so this morning, I wasn't intent on edit warring, I just wanted to edit the article in a useful, positive fashion. But again, my perfectly good edits were reverted in total without a good explanation. You see, I guess I just don't get why allowing another editor to revert my edits wholesale because he isn't interested in working with me is the best course for Misplaced Pages. I also don't get why leaving that editor to do as he pleases and for me to completely stop editing out of fear is the best course for Misplaced Pages. And I guess I also don't get why I should promise to allow someone treat the article that way in order to be unblocked. Can you tell me why it's okay for that editor (and the other two who also reverted my edits for no real reason) to refuse to work with me and be allowed to revert edits across-the-board and *I'm* the one who's being blocked (and essentially punished) when I wasn't edit-warring to begin with (but they were)? I wasn't the one creating the war-like environment, after all. So...after all I've said here, I imagine I haven't convinced you in the fashion I'm supposed to. Please understand that I'm not doing it just because I'm being stubborn, or trying to be oppositional-defiant. It's because I won't lie and say I won't do something that I know I really didn't do in the first place. Of course I'd like to be able to edit again sooner than 48 hours. Of course I am not going to edit war again if I am unblocked before the 48 hours are up. I can say that because I'm an honest person with the best of intentions always, everywhere I go in my life. But I can't and won't say that I know I was edit-warring and that I think this block is just because (a) I know I wasn't edit warring, I was just plain editing, and (b) I won't compromise my integrity by saying I did something I know I didn't do. I really wish you would look into the other editor(s) involved here by reading talk page of the ] article - beginning with how the events unfolded starting with the section titled "The horror" and then to the section titled "Faulty revisions" where I tried, in good faith, to not only explain my good faith edits but to reason and reach a working compromise with editor ] so that this very kind of scenario would not occur. Thank you for taking the time to read all of this and considering my request for unblock. --] (]) 02:13, 9 January 2010 (UTC)}} | |||
