This user is tired of silly drama on Wikipedia.

I check in most evenings, and occasionally some days during the day. I am on UK time (I can see Greenwich Royal Observatory from my office). If you post a reply at 8pm EST and get no reply by 10pm, it's likely because I'm asleep. My wiki interests at the moment are limited. I still handle some OTRS tickets.

I am under considerable personal stress at the moment; my father died and I have a lot of other stuff going on in RL including a new job as senior engineer for enterprise storage and virtual infrastructure in a Fortune 500 company. Great job, lots of shiny expensive toys, big responsibility. But Wikipedia is still one of my top hobbies, and I come here to do what I can. I respond much better to polite requests than to demands. People who taunt me with "I dare you to block me" may have cause to regret it, as may I. Don't even think of trying to drag me into one of the many cesspits this project offers, I will likely choose only those disputes where I don't actually care too much. Not coming to your party? It's because I've decided it will make me unhappy. Sorry about that.

Above all, please do not try to provoke me to anger, it's not difficult to do, so it's not in the least bit clever, and experience indicates that some at least who deliberately make my life more miserable than it needs to be, have been banned and stayed that way. Make an effort to assume good faith and let's see if we can't get along. Guy (Help!) 22:16, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of FLAB

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article FLAB, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?Cretog8 (talk) 19:05, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm trying to rescue it, based on the comments of another editor. DGG (talk) 01:22, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Seeking Advice on Personal Attacks and Incivility

How should I deal with this sort of thing: [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8]? That's just June 2008 and just me. Similar kinds of personal attacks can be found about others (Jkp, AniMate, Jamesbeat) in this editor's contribution history. I took a wikibreak for a refreshing vacation and have come back determined to get these personal attacks and incivility stopped. Can you help? David in DC (talk) 21:07, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Censorship is defined as "deletion of communicative material which may be considered objectionable, harmful or sensitive, as determined by a censor" [[9]] which is exactly what the above editor is doing. I am not the only one who is disgusted by this editor's repeated interpreting of BLP rules to require removal of well-sourced facts and then unilateraly claiming that his own deletions create a "consensus" justifying other deletions. Even though other editors have strongly rebuked both his bizzare interpetations of BLP and his repeatedly false cries of "consensus". See [[10]] [[11]] [[12]] for just a handfull among many rebukes to this editor. Finally, we have this apt description of the user from nearly a year ago- "It's not appropriate for you to comment in such a manner on a deletion discussion. In future, please comment on the subject at hand and do not engage in petty trolling at every opportunity. You can and will be blocked for such behaviour."

return of Upper Colorado River Endangered Fish Recovery Program POV sockpuppeteer

Hi. The editor from the Western Slope Anglers is back at work on Upper Colorado River Endangered Fish Recovery Program, now that your recent sprotect has expired. The article and talk need another sprotect, and will continue to need it, I'm sure. Thanks, Dyanega (talk) 23:59, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

Not around much

Should have added this earlier:

Not sure what value of soon, perhaps not until after a business trip to Pune in September. In April I had one SAN and one blade chassis full of VMware servers. Now I have four SANs, part of a fifth, two more in planning, one in proposal and over 650 virtual machines on 31 servers in the UK and Switzerland. Guy (Help!) 21:45, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
