Zonal spherical function

Take it easy, friend. I marked the article you're working on while patrolling new pages. Perhaps you should mark such articles with {{underconstruction}} next time. --/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 23:11, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

That is not what I normally do. Now please just leave me alone. Look at my mathematical edits. I am not a 12 year old school kid and when you see the start of a mathematical article, have the humility not to intervene, particularly when the edit summary makes it clear what is going on. You left less than 2 minutes before putting in templates, which I reagrd as rather unintelligent. Try to be more patient and learn a little common sense in future.

Well I'm sorry for that, but considering it's Misplaced Pages, you should expect someone to come along and edit the article you've helped write. If you want an incomplete article to have some degree of protection you might want to consider placing it as a subpage in your userspace until you consider it "ready to go". Let's try to assume good faith here; I'm just trying to make sure the good articles stay in and the bad articles stay out. I figured yours was going to be good at some point. --/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 23:34, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
Not one and a half minutes after its creation, when the edit summary says "more to follow"!!! Either you are an expert in semisimple Lie groups or you are being completely disingenuous. I am an experienced editor of mathematics articles, as you can quite rapidly find out. If you have not edited any higher mathematics articles yourself, please keep your thoughts to yourself. If you have no expertise in representations of semisimple Lie groups, you will have very little to contribute to this article. Now try to be a little more patient.

Civility

I have observed your recent conduct on this project with some concern. I am sure it is not news to you that editors are expected to interact with each other in a civil manner and to avoid personal attacks. Elonka has in her role as an administrator attempted to calm various disputes you have recently been in. Your attitude to other editors appears extremely hostile and Elonka has been giving you good advice. Your approach of accusing her of wikistalking, name-checking her in unrelated edit summaries, making threats and digging up errors she made early in her time editing here which she clearly regrets in an apparent attempt to intimidate her are totally unacceptable. Frankly, it appears to me that you are trying to get your way by bullying people. Please reconsider your approach, which seems to be escalating matters quite unnecessarily.
