Please remember to remain civil.

Firstly, as per your request, I archived your talk page. Keep in mind that talk page guidelines for archiving suggest no more than 32KB per page, in which yours was considerably under. But I'm happy to oblige nonetheless.

I have noticed that in recent edits, you have ignored WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA and WP:AGF, among others. (See: , ). Please try to keep a cool head when dealing with problematic edits. Personal attacks are never acceptable and are a quick way to a long block. I wouldn't hope for that on any potential editor and I hope that you edit peacefully and productively.


You can help improve the articles listed below! This list updates frequently, so check back here for more tasks to try. (See Misplaced Pages:Maintenance or the Task Center for further information.)

Help counter systemic bias by creating new articles on important women.

Help improve popular pages, especially those of low quality.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Happy (and civil!) editing, Wes! • c 07:17, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

May 2006

Please do not remove warnings from your talk page or replace them with offensive content. Blanking your talk page will not remove the warnings from the page history. If you continue to blank your talk page, you will lose your privilege of editing your talk page. Thanks. Wes! • c 18:01, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Please read

Regarding recent edits , , : Please do not make personal attacks on other people. Misplaced Pages has a policy against personal attacks. In some cases, users who engage in personal attacks may be blocked from editing by admins or banned by the arbitration committee. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Please resolve disputes appropriately. Thank you. If you would like to resign from Misplaced Pages, please pursue the options in WP:CHU, rather than adding unsupported personal attacks to my talk page. Wes! • c 23:16, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Images

When an image is listed at Misplaced Pages:Copyright problems is not enough just to assert that it's in the public domain; you have to give a source and some reason to believe it's in the public domain. Also, do not remove the imagevio tags; you may comment and the admin will read your comment, but the tag has to stay until the image has been processed. You've been warned about this before. I have deleted Image:Aucocisco.jpg and Image:Custom House Wharf.jpg. Chick Bowen 19:27, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

WP:NPA

Please do not make personal attacks on other people. Misplaced Pages has a policy against personal attacks. In some cases, users who engage in personal attacks may be blocked from editing by admins or banned by the arbitration committee. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Please resolve disputes appropriately. Thank you. Chick Bowen 20:25, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Old Post Card of LI

Thanks for e-mailing me, I did my best to save your image--but it looks like they're out to delete your additions. My suggestion is not to worry about the images, if they don't want them it's their loss not yours. Looks like favortism to me, but eh, who cares, right? Take care my friend. Don't worry about the island's article--if I can I'll reupload the post card with the proper copyright status so no one messes with it. Livin' Large 18:14, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Old_Photograph.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Old_Photograph.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Misplaced Pages's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions. 10:59, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I have fixed the photograph tag for you, and confirmed its source. Please be a bit nicer, and don't take this stuff so seriously. Livin' Large 22:03, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
This is of course directed to Almost Famous and his/her temper, and not the bot. Livin' Large 22:04, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Removing warnings and other content

This is your last warning. Removing warnings from your talk page is considered vandalism. You will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages and your talk page will be protected from editing if you do it again. While it is acceptable to remove non-hostile comments once they've been dealt with, this line of reasoning is inapplicable to perceived civility issues and warnings regarding personal attacks.

Blocked

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for disrupting Misplaced Pages by making personal attacks. If you wish to make useful contributions, you are welcome to come back after the block expires. AmiDaniel (talk) 06:42, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Your threat via email

I received your threat via email: 

 From: Almost Famous <sevenlinefeatures@gmail.com>
 Date: Jun 2, 2006 12:42 PM
 Subject: Misplaced Pages e-mail
 Why do you feel it's necessary to mess around with the Casco Bay pages?  They are not YOUR pages.
 I would like to know who you are in real life...
 ...
 but it would be best not to tell me.
 -Almost Famous

I am utterly mystified why you would threaten another person for editing Misplaced Pages policy violations of Misplaced Pages:Fair_use, Misplaced Pages:Verifiability, and Misplaced Pages:Copyrights.

It is Misplaced Pages official policy that "The threshold for inclusion in Misplaced Pages is verifiability, not truth. This means that we only publish material that is verifiable with reference to reliable, published sources."

If you would like to discuss my edits, please read the official Misplaced Pages policies I linked to above, plus Misplaced Pages:Civility. I will be happy to discuss any edits you feel are improper.Econrad 21:25, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
