User talk:Slatersteven
May 2017
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Talk:Mark Dice. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. 2601:183:8202:3D81:498A:6554:5A3F:CF9B (talk) 17:21, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

I noted that you cited Seán Ó Faoláin. While many of his books are short stories, he did write some well-regarded non-fiction books on the Irish. Your addition seems well supported by Ó Faoláin. Mr. Brown's removal seems over-zealous. Ó Faoláin, Seán (1949). The Irish: A Character Study. The Devin-Adair Company. ASIN B0016FYALS. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 10:38, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
- And where might one find 'some well-regarded non-fiction books on the Irish?' And just what are his credentials regarding Irish history? Wilfred Brown (talk) 17:24, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
- Well one was mentioned in the material you removed, his book The Irish: A Character Study. 1949.
- We also have [1] [2], he was what is today called a scholar. A man who wrote more then just one type of book, and is highly regarded as a writer on Irish history and culture.Slatersteven (talk) 08:58, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

typos and bigotry, seriously?
You clearly have the ability to spell. I made what was clearly an inoffensive joke about what was apparently (and I only say "apparently" because your response hinged on the assertion that you really didn't know the difference between "past" and "paste") a typo to try and lighten the mood. Responding by implicitly accusing me of bigotry is so far beyond the pale that I really don't know how to address it beyond pointing out how uncalled for and irrational it is. I've collapsed the discussion. You are, of course, free to open it back up and continue along the same tact, but I strongly recommend against it. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 16:31, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- Really? You think that I can spell? I suggest you read what I have written again, or would you like me to give a few examples?.Yes by the way, I do believe that mocking (not matter how "inoffensive") literacy is bigotry. It is the hate that can still shout it's name from the roof tops "LOL look at the moron!", maybe you did not intend to do this. That is irrelevant often an offensive comment comes not out of genuine bigotry, but ignorance ,this is not defense. Poor literacy is a real (and recognized) medical condition (well many in fact). By the way just because it was a typo does not mean the cause is not an issue with illiteracy, it is the fact you cannot see the typo that causes it (such as relying overly on spellchecker). I have also noted you tend to mock people you are in disagreement with [3], so no my reaction was not uncalled for and irrational, ass it fits firmly with a pattern of ridiculing disrespect you clearly hold for anyone whose intelligence you consider wanting. You made a joke with out bothering to think how that joke might impact upon the target, when there may have been genuine medical reasons for the act you mocked. I reacted as anyone might who felt they were being mocked for something they cannot control. Maybe if you do not want to give offence maybe you should think about what you are writing before writing it. After all, look how you are offended by being banded a bigot (which I did not, I said I saw no difference between mocking one disability and another), now imagine if this was a genuine mental illness and not just ignorance. Imagine you could not control it?Slatersteven (talk) 16:49, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
- ROFLMAO You are so full of shit. Tell you what. Why don't you post that example to ANI and see how far that gets you? Seriously. It's right here. Good luck. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 21:09, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
