Welcome!

Hello, Randazzo56, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some links that can help you get started editing:

• The tutorial
• How to edit a page
• How to write a great article

And for more detailed information:

• Help pages - the instruction manual, contains everything you could possibly want to know
• The five pillars of Misplaced Pages - our principles, or how to get on with other editors
• Manual of Style - how to format articles, where to place pictures, and other stylistic matters.

All of this information can be daunting, but if you have a question and can't find the answer, you can always ask me on my talk page or go to Misplaced Pages:Where to ask a question.

Randazzo and I have talked, and I thank him/her for the coutesy, and I believe such won't happen again, and this user will be, as they were with Bonnie and Clyde, a positive contributer! old windy bear 22:51, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

bonnie and clyde

I was not the source of the "battery acid" quote - I am well aware most (though not all, some reports do indicate it was leaking battery acid from the old, huge, batteries which did the msot damage) say it was fire damage from being trapped underneth a red hot frame from the fire -- but yours was a good edit. and congrats, and also thank you for talking to me about the other comment - that takes a big person, and a good one. You will make a fine user here, helping! old windy bear 22:48, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

More inappropriate comments

It's not appropriate -- it's uncivil and hurtful. I am blocking you for 24 hours; please stop making comments like this, or the block will be longer next time. · Katefan0/poll 14:33, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

I like what I like

Please don't tell me what cars I like and what cars I don't like. If I like the Eagle Premier (which, by the way, is not an "impossible to repair", "throw away" car like you claim it is), then tough. --ApolloBoy 02:29, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Again, STOP harassing me about my choices in cars. I know all about Chrysler engines and transmissions; I don't need your advice. If you leave another demeaning message on my talk page again, I will be forced to take action against you. --ApolloBoy 01:28, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

User:Randazzo56 As requested, I went and looked at the comments in question. I do not feel you left anything inappropriate. I would simply not leave comments on ApolloBoy's talk page, because he obviously does not wish to discuss his articles there unless you agree with him. As to the specific articles, you are free, as any user is, to edit his article. If you feel, as an expert, that those cars are hard to repair, (an opinion shared by many, look at their sales statistics!), then you are certainly allowed to edit the article to reflect that. The 3 r rule would then come into effect. If either party reverted more than 3 times in 24 hours they would be violating wikipedia policy. I would appreciate a link to the article in question, so I can look at that also. (I might add some things on those cars myself, because i support your comments on the talk page!) But as to the talk page, your comments were not inappropriate, and he should not have deleted them - but it probably is not worth arbitration. I just would not leave comments on his talk page, since he does not want them. But again, as to the articles, I have had mine (as you know!) mercilessly edited, and reedited, and that is simply the reality of writing on wikipedia! If your comments were deleted on an ARTICLE then that is a serious breach of wikipedia rules. Leave me a link to the article page, and I will check that.old windy bear 13:00, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

At no time did I attempt to tell you what you may or may not like. I never offered any advice. Find a dictionary and look up the term "Demeaning". I simply offered my opinion on your article, which any contributer is entitled to do. If you cant take criticism, you dont belong on wikipedia. randazzo56
