I'm finally getting back into this! Awesome! I started college in September 2011, and now I often pull up Misplaced Pages or Huggle for a bit as a break from homework. Did I mention that I think it's awesome?

Hi, everyone. This isn't the most spiffy talk page you will ever see, but it's my belief that less is more. Besides, if the talk page is for talking, why decorate it? Leave me a message if you've got something chewing on your ear, or if you just want to say something to me. Please use the New section tab above unless you're replying to a discussion already present, in which case please edit only that section and indent your reply using one more colon (:) than the last person. Also, please remember to sign your posts.
Some notes about my responses:
- I'll respond here if:
- You post a comment here (this will probably get you a {{talkback}} on your page to pop up that wonderful orange bar)
- I've moved a conversation here because it was off the original topic
- I'll respond on your page if:
- I posted a comment there
- I'll respond on the page I posted on if:
- I responded to a comment you left on another user's page
- I interjected in an already-ongoing conversation elsewhere
In general, I prefer to keep conversations together, so if I leave a comment on your talk page, I'd prefer to have replies there. However, if you don't want replies there, it's perfectly fine with me to have a back-and-forth between talk pages; I'll just double-post my comments on both my (this) page and yours. Note that I will probably change indent levels for your comment to make the conversation flow, but that's about it. My policy is generally to never interfere with other editors' talk preferences, so I'll generally accommodate whatever you want to do.
If you are a classmate of mine, please add the following to the end of your comment/question:Identifier (Fellow Student) ~~~~, where Identifier is either your first name or initials. That way, I can get an idea of who's talking to me. Thanks!
California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo Article
I apologize if I'm doing something wrong, but I am extremely dismayed to see that a single editor has recently changed the title of "California Polytechnic State University" to "California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo." This was done with no consensus whatsoever, and I am shocked to see it. The title has been "California Polytechnic State University" for as long as I can remember, and to unilaterally change it I think is absolutely wrong and goes against significant discussion on this issue. Since this has been done, the intro sentence is now changed--also highly controversial. I am happy to discuss this on the talk page, but feel that the editor who changed the ENTIRE ARTICLE TITLE is not being held to the same standard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.136.142.236 (talk) 02:54, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
- I can understand your dismay, and as I stated on your talk page a few moments ago I'm going to leave the dispute to you and other editors who know more about the situation. Cheers. I'll try not to bug you about it any more. :) Tuvok 02:56, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
- I differ with 50.136.142.236. Consensus was reached for the move. It's 50.136.142.236 who is engaging in an edit war.-- Marco Guzman, Jr Talk 15:27, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out, Marco. I will probably still stay mostly out of it, because I try to focus more on vandalism patrol than on raging disputes, but it's good to be more informed about the situation. Cheers, Tuvok 04:35, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

- Consensus was most certainly not reached. Indeed, none of this discussion was even made evident on the actual article's talk page. Furthermore, even looking at Marco's arguments in the discussion, his logic is highly faulty. Pomona's name is not "California Polytechnic State University, Pomona." Rather, it is "California State Polytechnic University, Pomona." This is a salient fact as it resolves ambiguity. Marco has a history of vandalizing the Cal Poly article and this name change reaches a new low. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.136.142.236 (talk) 23:21, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
