Request for additional comment on Talk:Wayne_Williams
Have I gone suddenly nuts (after 18+ years of editing here with only one previous confrontation) or is Sundayclose just way off base? He doesn't seem to be making any effort to discuss my proposal on Talk:Wayne_Williams, he's just rehashing my original (abandoned) edit and throwing around lies, insults, and threats without even the flimsiest of pretexts. You don't seem to have an axe to grind in this matter, so I'd welcome additional input from you, whatever you think. 67.188.1.213 (talk) 03:14, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Cripes
Now he's going through my other recent edits and removing entire paragraphs in violation of WP:NOCITE just because I made minor changes to them. Pure spite. Also he made four reverts on Carl Gugasian in just over 24 hours because he was angry at me for correcting him when he reverted the work of three editors just to get at one editor he disagreed with, also in violation of NOCITE. What's the next step for dealing with an editor like this? 67.188.1.213 (talk) 01:12, 10 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Generally speaking I'm the last person to ask for advice on this; I have purposely and intentionally remained ignorant of how most of the formal channels work for dealing with problems, as it tends to be a time-suck amplifier, well beyond just dealing with editing full stop, or editing disputes on talk pages. I've seen this behavior before elsewhere with other editors, and to be bluntly honest have fallen down this very rabbit hole of 'retribution'/'spite' myself, much to my own shame. I can only direct you to the general 'help' pages here for guidance, sorry. Anastrophe (talk) 01:24, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the intrusion Anastrophe. I'll paraphrase a comment that IP 67 made: Their "disruptive editing led me to look for other examples of disruptive editing in their edit history, and I found several", notably WP:V violations. As for Gugasian, I made four edits over a period of two days, removing violations of WP:RS/IMDB, WP:CITEIMDB, and WP:UGC. I'll stay off your talk page if you ask me to. Thanks.

 * The one other time a self-important editor came after me (he thought I was a sock for someone else) he initiated the formal complaint... and got slapped down hard, after which he left me alone. So I also lack experience with the formal processes. I'll go look at WP:AN. Thanks for your help. 67.188.1.213 (talk) 01:40, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm curious. Could you please give us a link for me getting "slapped down hard" for accusing you of being a sock? Thanks in advance. By the way IP 67, I suggest reading WP:BOOMERANG before making any more false accusations. Sundayclose (talk) 01:44, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Response to Solar cycle edit summary
I saw your edit summary on the solar cycle article and I thought it was funny. As a subject matter enthusiast, I plan on updating these articles at some point, but unfortunately the Sun related articles have a ton of other issues that I think need to be addressed first. For example, the misleading and incorrect information given in coronal cloud, the existence of the AR12665 article, and many others. Anyway, I thought I'd just let you know.

TheGunGuru73's talk page
Hi Anastrophe, just letting you know that I've removed your comment from the talk page primarily because I removed TheGunGuru73's and revoked their talk page access and so didn't want to leave your comment sitting there. Just wanted to let you know that I wasn't targetting your comments specifically. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 09:23, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Usenet
If you want to know why Usenet is not a proper channel for distributing child pornography, my comments are to the point. Of course, once you know the facts, you may search for sources. tgeorgescu (talk) 21:42, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

Sunset, verb
Turns out we're both right. I'm American born and bred and I've never ever heard anyone say "sunsetted". Everyone always says "sunset" as the simple past/past participle. None-the-less, not worth fight about. As I'm sure you'll agree. Merry Christmas,
