This and that
Sorry old boy, but I exist. We all have to start somewhere, but this is a real bother. And heg (talk) 17:59, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- See Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Damwiki1 into which you can place a comment to explain the coincidence. --PBS (talk) 12:16, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
See Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Damwiki1/Archive it was never the intention of anyone to intimidate anyone else. You happened, through no fault of your own to get embroiled in a dispute between two editors. One of the thinks which we try to keep a lid on are edit wars, as they wast a lot of time and are stressful for the people involved. To keep a lid on these types of disputes we have a policy see WP:3RR). See User talk:Kurfürst#One day bock for breaching 3RR.
As I blocked user:Kurfürst under that policy and warned user:Damwiki1 under the same policy, when you made the same reversal as user:Damwiki1, I was duty bound to follow it up, as not to do so could have been seen by user:Kurfürst, not unreasonably, as showing favoritism.
However we have a behavioral guideline on Misplaced Pages called "assume good faith" so as the outcome of the sock puppet investigation was that you could be a friend, and that as a new editor you might well not have been aware of the rules, -- or it could be a coincidence and you are from the same city and share a specific interest but do not know each other -- and those are the inferences that all editors of good faith will draw. So as far as I am concerned the incident is closed, and I hope you enjoy editing Misplaced Pages.
A word of warning though, if you are a friend of Damwiki1 (I am not asking if your are and I don't want you to tell me if you are), do not get drawn into disputes on pages that (s)he edits where you could be seen as either a meat puppet, or working as a tag team, as these too are a breach of Wikipia rules. --PBS (talk) 12:56, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
