Your comment on my page

You recently left a message on my page regarding the Chris Samnee article that I had created, and I was wondering whether this was something that you hand-wrote or whether it was automatically generated. If it is something automatically generated by the page curation tools, I'd like to see about getting that template changed, as it has some things that are inappropriate in fact and tone (most notably, the statement that a page has "issues to fix" when it's uncategorized.) And as a matter of strategy, you may want to check if a page is in the midst of editing before you tag it like that as part of your useful page curation work. I'm an experienced editor, so this stuff rolls off my back, but if a new editor was in the midst of creating a new page, as shown by multiple edits in the previous few minutes, and got a message that something needed fixing which he had simply not yet gotten to, it might be offputting. --Nat Gertler (talk) 06:05, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Men Are Like Waffles — Women Are Like Spaghetti

A single church holding a discussion for this book is not in my opinion notable or enhances the value of the article and makes it read more like a newspaper in violation of wikipedia's policies. If you examine the secondary source you will find that the event was localized to that specific church (a church which does not appear to be news worthy) and placed in the church section of a local online paper, not the main section.

Prolapse

It would be better to say that degree of prolapse is used to define uterine prolapse. Prolapse has its only page on the Wiki, so there is no point in it being repleted on the introitus page. The definition of piles is similar. Medical information should be referenced. Snowman (talk) 13:03, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

April 2014

FWIW, Carrie, although I used to use the {{GOCEinuse}} tag I've found it a waste of time. I have better luck editing articles in as small "bites" as possible. As I mentioned to HW, disputes should be discussed on talk pages rather than via edit summaries. All the best, Miniapolis

17:07, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

Yes Miniapolis, I agree that waste of time describes things well here. I also agree that disputes should be discussed on talk pages, but sometimes that is hard to do from only one side. For instance, I tried that several times in the past with user hw, but instead of civilly discussing any issues, all he did was revert 3 - 5 times my attempts to discuss issues that he has, and then he never responded on his talk page. As you are quite well aware, if you are cognizant of hw and his contentious, tendentious, disruptive, and combative efforts to incite others into edit wars by being malicious and vindictive in his edit summaries, then maybe a good synonym for "waste of time", or timesink would be incitewastehw. ( newly coined word ) Anyways, thanks for the note, and let's you and I get back to making wikipedia more fabulous one character @ a time!

ciao!!! Carriearchdale (talk) 05:34, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Ink Master Page

Hello Carriearchdale. I like that you are trying to clean up the Ink Master page, but you have made it much harder to read and follow. I know you weren't intentionally trying to make it harder to understand and I do like some of your changes and rewording/formatting. It has helped and I can work around it, but as the primary contributor to the subject, I know what is important and what should be kept separate or in higher stature than other aspects of the show. I do not wish to be rude, but now I have to go and make this understandable and clear up some of the confusion. I am not attempting to be demeaning to you in the least, I just felt I should let you know some of the changes you have made, only a few, I will be changing. If you do not like this, we can discuss it on the article's talk page. Had you posted your intentions to make these changes on the talk page prior to doing so, I could have helped you make the changes or at least provided input to why it is the way it is. Kevintampa5 (talk) 03:27, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

I look forward to collaborating with you on the Ink Master 4 article. Thank you for the note.
