I was surprised to see on your user page that you have just started here... you and I both don't have much experience according to the dates when our usernames were started. I don't think that I am feeling that the users are being hostile, just that they are not doing the content right. Would you feel offended if I asked you to recuse yourself on this case and punt to a more experienced user? I don't mean to offend, you've probably got lots of experience in a great many things.

I'm not sure if you've had a chance to read ] yet. I think a lot of the concerns people have about your behavior are related to that, and I should heve let you know about it earlier. Basically, you should almost never alter others' comments which aren't blatant ], and although you have largely free rein on your own talk page, people will trust you more if you don't archive so quickly. Wikipedians like to get a quick "feel" for what an editor has been up to by looking through their talk page; per ] and ] we won't hold constructive criticisms against you, especially because you usually accept them politely, but if you sweep everything away so fast people will think you want to hide something. I advise you set up an archive bot like ] and let threads sit automatically for at least a week. ] (]) 03:35, 9 August 2015 (UTC) |

My dispute
Editor of all things wikipedia,
I was surprised to see on your user page that you have just started here... you and I both don't have much experience according to the dates when our usernames were started. I don't think that I am feeling that the users are being hostile, just that they are not doing the content right. Would you feel offended if I asked you to recuse yourself on this case and punt to a more experienced user? I don't mean to offend, you've probably got lots of experience in a great many things. But in this case would you feel OK bowing out?Cityside189 (talk) 03:10, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
Editing talk pages
I'm not sure if you've had a chance to read WP:TPO yet. I think a lot of the concerns people have about your behavior are related to that, and I should heve let you know about it earlier. Basically, you should almost never alter others' comments which aren't blatant vandalism, and although you have largely free rein on your own talk page, people will trust you more if you don't archive so quickly. Wikipedians like to get a quick "feel" for what an editor has been up to by looking through their talk page; per WP:AGF and WP:BITE we won't hold constructive criticisms against you, especially because you usually accept them politely, but if you sweep everything away so fast people will think you want to hide something. I advise you set up an archive bot like User:MiszaBot and let threads sit automatically for at least a week. FourViolas (talk) 03:35, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
