Talk:Joey O'Brien

Datestamps
Well I've tried to explain that the norm is to use five '~' on the datestamp infobox for footballers and most people do. Use seem to have an issue with this and will not engage in any dicussion as to why. I do not 'own' any pages but try to follow convention and adding a timestamp is hardly undoing your changes, it is adding to them. Maybe you could dicuss why you won't use the timestamp and why when people add it it is 'chidlish' but when you remove it, it isn't?--Egghead06 (talk) 11:11, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
