First, I've been editing Yankees pages since I got here in 2006 (check the stats and my user page) and have been a fan since the days of Maris and Mantle, so no, I didn't follow you to Derek Jeter - he's been on my watchlist forever, and in case you didn't realize it, the Yanks are in the ALDS, so baseball is in the air. In addition to making some other edits there, I did remove a couple of your edits in places where you inserted your own original research - in both cases the sources didn't reflect what you added (even if what you added was factually correct, we go with sources not our own independent knowledge or speculation). As for the rest - it was out of line for you to move ''your'' page, which never should have been created, to my space - I had nothing to do with it, and if you no longer are supporting your own work you should have asked for it to be deleted. Not move it to me. And finally, I'm only speculating on who you might be, as your editing style is familiar to me - but I'm leaving that alone for now, as I think we should leave this discussion. The Yankees won, so who cares about this. (And by the way - not likely that I'd have an ex-wife or a wife, as you can discern from my user page too.) <strong>]</strong>/<small>]</small> 05:15, 18 October 2009 (UTC) |
Revision as of 05:15, 18 October 2009
Welcome
Hi President of Chicago and welcome to Misplaced Pages. I've seen some of your edits to Jimmy Carter and wanted to give you some pointers. We generally don't reference Misplaced Pages articles in the prose of an article, we just use the wikilinks. Also we need to make sure that every article contains the necessary sources for statement, especially in articles on living people. I just wanted to say hello, and if you have any questions please feel free to ask me on my talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and somebody will be by shortly to see if they can answer any questions you have. Below are some pages that might be helpful:
- The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Manual of Style
Again, welcome to Misplaced Pages. And by the way, you choose perhaps the greatest username I have ever seen. nableezy - 06:13, 13 September 2009 (UTC)
Re your note
Thanks for your message, but I'm slightly confused. What ANI comment are you referring to? EyeSerene 07:46, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, thanks for clarifying that. You're right that anyone can edit, including the record company employees, as long as they follow our editing policies. What we can't do though is what they were asking, which was for us to give them complete control over the article and let them decide who edits it. EyeSerene 15:49, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
See Misplaced Pages:User page#How to create a user subpage for how to set up subpages for any other experimenting you want to do.
