== Egyptian Navy Ensign ==


{{Monopoly board layout
I think there was a mistake in reverting back to the Egyptian Navy unofficial flag. I see you said that the one I made has no reliable resources. Have you checked the file description page? The ensign you reverted the page back to has no existence whatsoever in Egypt. It's completely made up. I added a link to an image where the 4 flags of the Egyptian Armed Forces are next to each other and you can see the navy flag. you can also google it or search for any other photo for an armed forces commander. <br />

::It's clearly the ''flag'' of the Navy, there's various sources that do show that.

You had directly contorted what another user said noting against it. Yet spoke to them in the very same manner. This in inappropriate conduct and standards. I did not change what you meant in any way considering what you linked. Only negated the personal snip at that user. Try to shy away from those when doing talk page edits. We are all a community.

== I need your help ==
Your original message : Hello, I'm Toddy1. Misplaced Pages is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Muawiyah I seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. --Toddy1 (talk) 06:42, 28 July 2013 (UTC)


Hi @],
Yet: The user made no real mention or length of discussion on what they did. So the designation to deem it 'less than neutral' is questionable. Maybe they needed to cite it, though there was nothing applicable to state your mention. And you acted in a manner you stated the other user should not act in. You acted less neutral to their edit. When it was just a basic edit, then stated "Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia and and so is not a useful place for you to express your point of view". I would say this falls into : http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:TALKNO#Behavior_that_is_unacceptable Do not associate someones behavior wrongly , ask them to cite instead.<small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 22:43, 31 July 2013 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Toddy, do your goddamn homework. I'm assuming good faith and taking it that you don't speak Japanese and so "Jimmu" and "Jingū" look the same to you, but those two RMs went the opposite way. The latter one saw the IP as the ONLY one opposing, while the former had no relevance whatsoever to the thread in question. If you think Enkyo2 shouldn't be indefinitely blocked for continuing to post bizarre moon-speak on talk pages and making revenge edits after he has already been warned about it in two separate arbitration cases, then please bring it up in the relevant thread. ] (<small>]]</small>) 10:14, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

I need your help

Hi @Toddy1,

1) I am a good faith editor whose start on Misplaced Pages might have been not that good but I am getting better and now editing the space in good faith.

2) The enforcement started as a retaliation as mentioned by me in the discussion here.

3) I have edited on Misplaced Pages and in the past month, we can not find a single instance where I indulged in vandalism or POV pushes as mentioned in the enforcement.

I request you to please change your opinion and kindly give me a chance to work further on the platform.

Note: I am currently undergoing my semester exams in university till 15th jan, might not respond swiftly. I respect your fair-mindedness and have a good faith that you will take side of Justice.

Thank You ! PPicazHist (talk) 08:13, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

I am not sure that you understand what "good faith" means; it is the opposite of bad faith (there is an article explaining what "bad faith" means).
I do not know whether (2) was started as retaliation. But it does not matter anymore whether it was or was not. See WP:STICK.
If the aim was to victimise you for your political views, it failed. A success would have been a topic ban or an indefinite block from editing Misplaced Pages. Admins evaluated the complaint against you with complete fairness, and did not victimise you. Instead they chose a solution to the problems reported that will enable you to develop your editing skills by creating and editing draft articles, and to learn how to evaluate sources correctly, and then return you to editing mainspace. This was very much a win for you.-- Toddy1 (talk) 13:49, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

what can I do?
Edit English-language Misplaced Pages. But do not make the same mistakes that you made on Spanish-language Misplaced Pages.
If you do a good job editing articles on English-language Misplaced Pages for a year, this will be evidence that you are capable of making significant and useful contributions to Misplaced Pages.
