Collect's comments[edit]
I've asked for Admin help to deal with Collect's coments. Yonmei (talk) 18:32, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- All I did was note the nature of the "proof" given - including that the sock presumably made long posts. I noted further the lenthg of the posts on the SPI complaint page. You decided to refactor the page to remove such innocuous comments, which I assure you is not accepted practice per WP:REFACTOR. You also object to me removing content from my User Talk page - I consider the term "non-utile" to be quite polite, and each person has a right to maintain their own user talk page as they see fit. Cheers. Collect (talk) 18:46, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you for your comment! I'm unsure why, if you intended your comment as a helpful critique of the sockpuppet investigation, you added "lol" on the Edit Summary. Could you clarify?
- Could you also clarify why you felt it helpful to cut-and-paste your comment so that it appeared twice on the page? Yonmei (talk) 18:59, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- I initially posted it at the end of an (edit) section, in the belief that such would get me to the end of the main section. After doing so, I noted that a sufficiently high-level header had been used, breaking the comments section into a second, non-obvious section. I therefore took my comments and posted them at the very end of all the comments, as otherwise I doubt anyone would have noticed them in the wall of text <g>. Cheers. And please note WP:REFACTOR in the future, it will save you a great deal of grief. Collect (talk) 19:56, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- So again, could you clarify, why, if you intended your comment as a helpful critique of the sockpuppet investigation, you added "lol" on the Edit Summary?
- Again, could you clarify why you believed your comment ought to appear twice on the project page?
- Could you also clarify why, if you felt that the project discussion page was not formatted so that your contribution would be clear, you did not set to, and make it clearer for all user contributions, not just your own? Yonmei (talk) 21:22, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- I made a comment I felt was germane. I explained carefully supra why it appears twice. Cheers. By the way, you might wish to read WP:CANVASS. Collect (talk) 22:20, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- So again, could you clarify, why, if you intended your comment as a helpful critique of the sockpuppet investigation, you added "lol" on the Edit Summary?
- Again, could you clarify why you believed your comment ought to appear twice on the project page? To expand on this, what was so especially valuable about your comment that you felt you should copy and paste it so that it was there in two places?
- And once more, could you also clarify why, if you felt that the project discussion page was not formatted so that your contribution would be clear, you did not set to, and make it clearer for all user contributions, not just your own? Yonmei (talk) 21:22, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
