''From ]:''

'''Q: What should I do if an edit conflict is occurring and the other side will not co-operate?'''

A: First of all, ask for outside opinion, either ] or ] if a number of editors are involved. Consensus and a compromise should follow. If someone revert wars from this compromise, report it to ] and ask a admin to step in.

''From ]:''

'''Q: How do I deal with an article which is ]?'''

A: There are some options:
* Create a draft as a subpage from the talk page and tag with {{tl|draft}};
* ];
* ] (if its really notable).

Information

I don't contribute much any more as the main bulk of information and expertise that I know is up on Misplaced Pages and sourced, and updating items is a once in a while task. But I will still be receptive to messages left on the talk page, so don't assume I have gone or anything.

About me

Hi, my name is Gareth and this is my home user page. I believe in the freedom that Misplaced Pages offers, the flexibility and ease of editing and creation of new articles that attracted me to become a member of Misplaced Pages.

I generally keep to the media, especially television and radio, as well as the jazz (specifically smooth jazz), computing and video games (specifically but not exclusively Sega) articles of Misplaced Pages. I do occasionally keep an eye out for vandalised articles and revert them to the previous untouched version of that article.

I use the Linux operating system with the Arch Linux distribution and the KDE desktop environment as well as Chromium and other free and open-source software to contribute to Misplaced Pages.
