I think you need to read the Wikipedia manual yourself. It states "Wikipedia is built upon the principle of collaboration and assuming that the efforts of others are in good faith is important to any community. When you find a passage in an article that you find is biased or inaccurate, improve it if you can. If that is not easily possible, and you disagree with a point of view expressed in an article, don't just delete it. Rather, balance it with what you think is neutral." The points I raised were valid and were similar to what others have written. I have been editing of Wikipedia since its creation and I have never just deleted a section without first talking to the editor BEFORE I deleted the article. Have nice day.

First of all, you missed my point all together. You didn't contact me on my user talk page first, instead you deleted my entry and entered a summary edit as an after thought. You should have communicated with me via the user talk page before you took action. That way we could have worked out our differences. I was, and am, more than willing to make adjustments and accommodations with any editor in the spirit of cooperation and community. That is how I deal with edits I don't agree with and that's how I expect other editors to treat my edits. Thank you (Deej30 (talk) 14:33, 30 May 2010 (UTC))

First of all, dude, if there was an "edit war" it was because you started it, not me, so don't go around implying that I'm an instigator. I appreciate that you edit Doctor Who pages, but if you look at several pages in the classic series you'll see my name as well (in fact I created serveral episode pages), so I am not some random fan who came up with a novel idea. Secondly, there is no contract, technically, but you are under the guidelines of the Wikipedia manual which states that out of the spirit of cooperation you should have contacted me on my talk page before you deleted my edit, which you didn't. If you are going to start throwing rules and and guidlines in to other editors faces then I suggest that you actually read them first. Thirdly, let it go, man! I'm sure you have something else better to do with your time than to try to justify your actions to me. My entry is gone and I'm not going to fight it. You WIN! I don't care anymore about edit, and if you think I do, then again you missed my point. The point that I was making all along is that if Wikipedia is to be a "Community of Knowledge" then we need to treat others in the fashion of a community. Unless an entry is blatantly false, there should be a proper line of communication between the editors on their talk page before deletion, so we can attempt to settle our differences and make the article the best it can be. Take care, enjoy your weekend and have a nice life (Deej30 (talk) 15:32, 30 May 2010 (UTC))

  • No. You (Deej30) were bold (good). U-Mos reverted you (also good). Ideally, what would have happened next is a discussion. Instead you (Deej30) reverted (bad). Another editor then reverted you. Fortunately you only reverted back to your preferred version twice, and I'll acknowledge that you are now discussing the matter. But your suggestion that anyone other than yourself was responsible for this is incorrect. TFOWRpropaganda 15:39, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
