But I doubt many people (admins or others) would give you much hassle unless there was an obvious pattern of marking good-faith edits as vandalism. The edit that prompted me to come here wouldn't be enough to even note; I wouldn't leave it on the page of an editor who has a history of ignoring ] and/or would be offended by me doing so.

If you came to my talk page:

  • Because I placed a {{user warning}} template on your / another user's talk page, and wish to comment on that action:
    Please click here to leave me a message, or click here to leave me a {{talkback}}/{{whisperback}} notice.
    • I don't usually watch pages that I leave warnings on.
  • To leave a {{user warning}} template on my talk page:
    Please don't; it will be removed immediately and without comment.
    Instead, please click here and leave a personalized message describing the issue you have.
  • Because I left you a message:
    Please answer on your talk page, as I am watching it. I will continue watching it until the conversation is over.
    • Please do not leave {{talkback}} or {{whisperback}} messages for me here if I started the conversation, unless I have not answered you for several days and have been otherwise active.
  • Because you left a message for me somewhere else:
    Please click here to leave me a notice.
    • Replace {{REVISIONUSER}} with the name of the page the message was left at.
  • For some other reason not listed above:
    Please click here to leave me a new message.


If you leave me a message:

  • I will answer on my talk page (unless you request otherwise), then notify your talk page (unless I notice you are watching my page).
This talk page may be watched by friendly talk page stalkers which means that someone other than me might reply to your query.
Their input is welcome, and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly (within 48 hours) is appreciated.

Whisperback notices

Best Approach

Resolved

I'll leave it to you to determine the best approach here, Prioryman has reverted me but as he's the main advocate of not merging and also the primary contributor to the 'threatened' article, I suppose your call is most neutral. If we call a halt to merge discussions for the time being I think it best to alert B-Machine of this, as he clearly feels entitled to begin the discussions again as it stands. Bob House 884 (talk) 00:28, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

strike that, you've answered my question on my talk. Bob House 884 (talk) 00:31, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Close it

Please close the discussion at Talk:2010-2011 Ivorian crisis. After reading the comment made by Primecoordinator, I think Second Ivorian Civil War should be merged into 2010-2011 Ivorian Crisis. 19:05, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

 DoneAJL 19:51, 22 May 2011 (UTC)
Oh, this is absurd. How many more misconceived and time-wasting merge proposals are you going to allow B-Machine to inflict? Have you seen his comment here? His attitude is just plain juvenile. Prioryman (talk) 06:43, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
This will be the last one. – AJL 08:16, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
