TreasuryTag is currently, or is going to be, away from Misplaced Pages, between April 14 and April 19, 2009, and may not be able to respond immediately to queries. He may, however, edit a little unless he's using the splendid Wikibreak enforcer.

Whys

Because of WP:BRD. When there is disagreement about an issue we restore things to where there were before the bold change and then discuss. In theory the person making the bold change should initiate the discussion. Instead you three edit warred without discussion. You all know better. I set us back to the state we started in before your bold change and initiated discussion--exactly what should have happened to begin with. Hobit (talk) 12:37, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

So you basically decided to make the 8th revert on a page while simultaneously lecturing others about the evils of revert-warring. What hypocrisy. ╟─TreasuryTag►person of reasonable firmness─╢ 16:53, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

File:Flag of the African Union 2010.svg

Hi,
concerning File:Flag of the African Union 2010.svg, as far as I'm aware F4 doesn't apply to fair-use images. A source in particular is not particularly relevant as long as the rationale is valid – quite regularly the source of a fair use image is actually unknown.

Any comment? Amalthea 18:51, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Well, I've restored it, less your tag. And I'm confused that you're ignoring me. Amalthea 11:28, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Your change to a section title

This edit broke the section link that shows up on people's watchlists. Please be more careful about that sort of thing in future. --Viennese Waltz 17:23, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

I make no apology for enforcing WP:TALK#markup. Please be more conservative in dishing out brusque comments to people! ╟─TreasuryTag►Lord Speaker─╢ 17:41, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Stay off my page!

Sometime ago you were asked to leave me alone . Yesterday, uninvited, you chose to twice ignore that request and post on my page and comment on me in matter which did not concern you. I am more than happy to maintain a very great distance between us. In future, if you comment about me anywhere, post on my page or go out of your way to irritate me (on or off site), then I will not consider myself bound to abide by that same agreement. I hope that is very clearly understood. I hope I will not have to post on this page ever again. Is that quite clear?  Giacomo  11:00, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Giano, if you start purposely annoying TreasuryTag simply because they comment about you, you will be blocked. Do not think you can prevent editors who are likely to have conflicting views from commenting on your actions, by threatening to harass them if they do so. That said, you are entitled to remove TreasuryTag's comments from your own talk page (TreasuryTag, best not to complain if this happens). If the comment's are problematic they can be dealt with, using means other then attacking TreasuryTag. - Kingpin (talk) 11:12, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
