User talk:Vanished User 1004

Hello, and Welcome!

I have decided that posts here will generally be answered both here, and on the poster's talk page. I will generally include a copy of the post I am answering as well.
Please discuss article edits on the appropriate article talk pages, and be wp:CIVIL.
At my sole discretion, posts I feel don't meet these requirements will be either archived, if I value them, or simply deleted, if I do not.

If this displeases you, please feel free to post elsewhere. Please see wp:talk for additional guidance.

I spend a bit of time patrolling recent changes.

When I make a mistake, please note:

I am only a human, I promise I will make mistakes. I revert things that appear to be clear vandalism, or dubious and unsourced, or most aggressively, dubious and unsourced/weakly-sourced and Biographical. I think that Biographical articles are the greatest risk that Wikipedia faces.
When you find I have made a mistake, please undo my edit and say why in the edit description. If you are VERY kind, and there is a useful Wikipedia guideline or consensus, please link it. :)
I would mildly prefer that you not leave me a template message if I've made a bad edit.
If I have reverted your edit, whether vandalism, otherwise problematic, or mistakenly, please don't abuse me with vandalism here. It will be quickly reverted.
I am not here all the time. If you leave me a message and I don't respond quickly, please don't be offended. I will get back to you as soon as I can after I see your message.

Other things:

I am not an admin. I will never be an admin. I am too loud, too wrong too often, way too politically incorrect, and too unable to learn the "kagillion" WP rules. I am an editor. I will do my best to be a useful Wikipedia editor. That is all.
I am not going to look up your sources for you. If you add content and I flag it {{CN}}, or cut it to the talk page for possible inclusion, beating me up... because you did a quick SuperWombatSearchEngine9 query and found the source you should have included the 1st time... will only make me smile.
I make small edits. I put an edit summary on each one, almost without fail. Thus, if an article is badly wounded, I may make 100 edits to it to fix 100 spelling, grammar, structure, and sourcing errors. Please try to survive somehow. Screaming at me that I am editing too much will again only make me smile.
If someone posts on a talk page covering 23 points, I may answer with a 23 point response. This *absolutely enrages* some individuals. As a courtesy, I will attempt to remember their preferences, and not reply to their posts. For those times I forget, I apologize in advance, and I invite the reader to ignore my response: I will do my best.
In those rare cases where an editor cannot even bear to read a talk page where I post, if the article is one I don't care about, I won't post there any more. If it is, however, I again apologize in advance, and again I invite the reader to ignore my response.

One day, a wise man listened impassively as his critics berated and insulted him during a discussion.
After the end of the discussion, an observer asked him how it made him feel to be treated so.
The elder smiled for a moment, then said "It makes me very happy."
A student, who had been upset already, demanded "How can it make you happy to be treated so!?!?"
His teacher explained, still smiling, "Because, my impetuous young friend, I am not them."

Thanks

Thanks for your message. No worries. Even though we ended up in issues in the past, but I still appreciate your efforts. I will co-operate with you and will expect the same. Every issue has a solution :) ... Regards ....--99.51.223.161 (talk) 07:35, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:International Game Developers Association

I agree with your edit of my comment on the Talk page however I would just like to assure you that had I made an edit to the IGDA article, it would of course have been from a NPOV. Due a prolonged absence from Wikipedia (and the loss of an older account due to a forgotten email address) I failed to remember that poor sourcing and strong opinion in non-article space is also in violation of Wikipedia conduct and I will adhere to this in future; my opinions shall be kept to myself. Thank you for your reminder and I do hope this error will not affect your opinion on future edits I hope to make to other articles. --Glitchd (talk) 15:01, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your help requested

Sinneed, your help is urgently requested on the "Robert Lanza" page. It seems as though we're starting from scratch over exactly the same wording that was resolved on the "Bicoentrism" page. Thanks WikiWatch31 (talk) 20:53, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The admin involved has made it clear that ~~I am~~ my talk page posting style is unwelcome on talk pages that admin frequents. I have no expectation of posting on talk pages where the admin is working, as a courtesy. I wouldn't have the job on a bad bet, and strongly support those who do. My editing and especially talk page style is quite QUITE offensive to some, and I avoid inflicting it on those so affected.- sinneed (talk) 20:55, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You've done an incredible job on the biocentrism page (dealing with all these people deserves a medal)In any case, you have my thanks WikiWatch31 (talk) 21:03, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have your talk page on watch, I am happy to answer you there.- sinneed (talk)

Meh

I knew someone would fix it... what I was perplexed by was the fact that the article displayed as if the Javascript/template was properly reading "uncollased" as "uncollapsed"... I need to go have a look at the code again. --Izno (talk) 21:34, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Betting on 1st-letter-check... maybe 1st 2 letters. If it were I, I would have used only the "U" and "C" unless there were other options. :)- sinneed (talk) 21:37, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sri Lanka - Channel Four - Video ..

Sri Lanka government wasn't able to win Tamil Tigers for almost 30 years or so....but they won them after getting KPS Gill's services......just thought to share this Sri Lanka video with you. Channel 4 News August 26,2009 Sri Lankan forces executing Tamils from the concentration camp. It simply shows KPS Gill's style. He used the exact same style to muder Sikh freedom fighters.... little children, boys, girls, parents, elders used to live naked in death camps and Indian security (under direct command of KPS Gill) used to murder them in the exact similar way.... ofcourse female victims had used to go through rapes... may be it will come out one days as well.. --99.51.223.161 (talk) 01:20, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
