User:UNHchabo/Not everyone has as much free time as you

When editing Wikipedia in any sort of fashion, always remember this simple guideline:


 * Not everyone has as much free time as you.

Explanation
By this, I mean several things:
 * 1) If you leave a message on someone's user talk page, they may not get it for some time.
 * 2) If you leave a message on an article's talk page, it may not be seen by anyone for some time.
 * 3) If you wish to nominate an article for deletion, the people interested in that article may not know about the nomination, and may therefore not be able to adequately debate the AfD nomination.

Reasons
There are several reasons why someone may not see an edit to their favorite article/talkpage:
 * 1) They may be taking a wikibreak (and not everyone uses the notification templates on that page).
 * 2) The article may not be on their watchlist.
 * 3) They may be asleep.
 * 4) They may very well have a day job or go to school, and may not be on Wikipedia every minute they're at a computer.
 * 5) They may have a life (hand-in-hand with the above reason).

So please, when editing, be patient when waiting for action from other editors.
