Sometimes, the things that appear from a distance prickly and unpleasant on the surface actually aren't when you get up close

The Facts stood in front of a crowd of Angry Agenda-Driven Finger Pointers and said: "Hey, I'm The Facts, did you want me?"
The Angry Agenda-Driven Finger Pointers replied, "We only want the part of you that supports our opinion!"
The Facts replied naively, "Ha-ha, you can't just take a part of me, silly!"
After having a bite taken out of it by The Angry Agenda-Driven Finger Pointers, The Facts sadly and with tears dejectedly said, "But...they could. And did."
True story. Just look at the politically-based articles in Misplaced Pages and their related talk pages for evidence.




Misplaced Pages is no place for humour.
Everything is very serious here and we are all terrifically important.

I know that tracking sockpuppets and filing the appropriate reports is time consuming so your efforts with the socks of Monterossa are much appreciated. Cheers MarnetteD | Talk 17:59, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for helping keep Misplaced Pages free of tabloid junk and remaining civil through it all! Keep it up EoRdE6 05:50, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

For having the gumption to create a solution talked about at an AfD, by creating a sub-article for the Golden Gate Bridge about suicides which occur there. Doing so is bold and creates a new consensus which retains verified content that would have otherwise been deleted. RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 02:17, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

For being the first to stand up for the values of Misplaced Pages in Misplaced Pages:Templates for discussion/Log/2015 March 16#Template:Maintained\what was ultimately a losing battle, and sticking with them in the face of great opposition. — Daniel Case (talk) 02:14, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

I'm sorry for poking my nose in yesterday! (Despite my good intentions I perhaps shouldn't have got involved!)

It all makes so much sense now!
Anyway wanted to say Thank you for contributing here and keep up the great work :), –Davey2010 17:32, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Can I just say that even after the mess that is that review page, and given our history, you are still giving the article a fair review. I really hope this is a turning point in our wiki relationshipp. Thanks so much. MaranoFan (talk) 09:23, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
Sockpuppet reporting barnstar
Dear Winkelvi, thank you for reporting me as a sockpuppet. I have waited for months, and am now using my new privileges to make wonderful edits and new articles. Thank you for reporting me, even if I did not understand at the time. I have learned my lesson, not to sock puppet and will never sockpuppet again. Thank you, Cheers!

Thank you for helping protect Misplaced Pages against fraudulent content, undisclosed paid editing, and COI. These things represent one of the largest threats to the integrity of the project and would surely have long since destroyed Misplaced Pages if were not for individuals such as yourself maintaining the front line.

I appreciate your contributions regarding my topic ban as well as your thoughts on Arbitration Enforcement. --MONGO 13:07, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Winkelvi, it has now been over a year since you were last blocked and since an ANI thread was begun to determine possible supplemental action. I remember being the first person to call for you to be indefinitely blocked. Many others soon joined me. In the time since you were unblocked, you have kept out of major trouble and made good contributions to Misplaced Pages. I must say now that I am glad that the attempt that I helped lead to have you indefinitely blocked did not succeed. Hopefully, though, it did wake you up, and you will continue to edit as productively as you have in the past year or more so. Regards, Display name 99 (talk) 02:48, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for all your efforts at Liberty University and other articles, remaining civil and ensuring that content is encyclopedic and NPOV. Marquis de Faux (talk) 04:03, 5 June 2018 (UTC)

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

For your nomination for deletion of clearly mergable content at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Transition of Caitlyn Jenner, you are awarded this delicious trout. Enjoy! VQuakr (talk) 07:10, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
