Global Automakers
Hello, Scheinwerfermann. I see you've added some comments following a few of my own on the topic of Global Automakers; you can now find my replies on the WikiProject Autos and Global Automakers Talk pages. Meanwhile, I am happy to work with you to bring the article in line with community standards, however I would like to ask that you at least be polite to me. Although you are skeptical of my motivations, and I understand why that is, I hope that you will please allow me the courtesy of being civil. Thanks, WWB Too (talk) 22:51, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- I have not been the slightest bit uncivil to you, sir or madam, and if we're starting this conversation with an implication otherwise, we're getting off to rather a bad start. —Scheinwerfermann ·C23:03, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- So far your reactions to my outreach have included "Yumpin' yiminy" and "Good gravy", among other judgmental turns of phrase. If you can agree to hold back these comments and keep the focus on sources and guidelines, I'd appreciate it. Cheers, WWB Too (talk) 00:27, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
- Nothin' doin'. If you consider family-friendly exclamations such as "good gravy" and "yumpin' yiminy", used in critique of Misplaced Pages content, to be "uncivil", then I can only suggest you grow a much thicker skin in as big a hurry as you're able to muster, for I shan't crimp my rhetorical style merely to suit what appears to be your unusually keen sensitivity thereto. Furthermore, I reserve the right to use other such family-friendly exclamations, including but not limited to "gracious goodness me", "land sakes alive", "I do declare", "great Caesar's ghost", and "oh, my stars and garters". You will simply have to cope. —Scheinwerfermann ·C00:46, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
Restored conversation
I've noticed that you deleted my friendly reply to you (and your own friendly response) on this page in the above thread, and I don't understand why. I respect that this is your Talk page and you may do with it as you wish, but as long as we are discussing the Global Automakers article, I would like others to be aware of our relevant correspondence. I'll reproduce it here:
- Believe me, if you're willing to outline specific, addressable concerns with the content and tone of the Global Automakers article in such a way that we can make Misplaced Pages better, then I can put up with almost any mild oath. Best, WWB Too (talk) 15:55, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
- Very fine! Then there's no problem, for that is exactly what I've been doing all along. —Scheinwerfermann ·C17:29, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
I hope our agreement remains effective, however if there is a reason why its presence was unacceptable to you—and why said deletion did not merit an edit summary—please consider this a polite inquiry. Cheers, WWB Too (talk) 09:27, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
