Re your unexplained removal of sourced content
Article content on Wikipedia is based on verifiability; basically readers or editors should be able to verify the information. The move to the Cheetahs have been reported on at least five reliable sources, indicated in the Reference section on the Ethienne Reynecke page. Might I also point out, there is no original research on Wikipedia, it's just based on a collection of sources, in this case Die Burger, Beeld, SupaRugby.com, SARU and Rugby365 – feel free to check all those sites; they are all reporting the move. And while I have no reason to doubt you at all, anyone could've signed up with that username and started posting messages.

I will not contact you on Facebook, however, I am more than happy to discuss it here. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 00:34, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Seeing that you don't want to contact me, I will give you a brief explanation. Please contact me if you want more detail. I have asked you to remove any mention of the cheetahs as I am going to write bar exams to furthur my qualification. The first part of the exams cam be written without working permanently but the 2nd part can't. I am involved with a company where I will work after which afforded me the chance to work part time while doing the exams and playing rugby. However, just to stop anybody being nasty and saying I can do exams cause not working permanently I just want to remove anything on wikipedia as it is the 1st thing that comes up when you search me. Please have some empathy. You can update it again next year. Please get back to me asap if you still do not want to delete any reference to the cheetahs asap


 * I do not want to remove information that is correct, well-sourced and contributes to having a complete and up-to-date article, no. That's the whole point of Wikipedia; to provide exactly such content. Feel free to make constructive edits to the page (maybe in a section called "Personal Life") indicating the studies and how it is combined with the playing career.

To be honest with you, at this very moment I have a couple of very unpleasant things to say to you. Ill leave it and just say that you are a coward that hides behind a pseudo name. You know my name. Talk to me like a man. I asked you a favour. Nobody's life's are enriched by this article except my personal life might get jeopardized.did you not get that from my explanation???? Then you give me BS of creating personal life section. Are you joking? Or is this some kind of position of power for you?? And if you are so anal about correct info get proper info about my early years and involvement with teams like the cats and lions M
 * Please, feel free to correct the stats about your early years and involvement with teams like the Cats and Lions if it's not correct. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 21:14, 1 August 2013 (UTC)


 * This has nothing to do with a position of power. And thanks for the personal attack. I've tried explaining Wikipedia's guidelines. Have you read any of them? Are there any that's being violated? I have tried to compromise – in case you didn't notice, the opening line of the bio used to read "Ethienne Reynecke (born 20 March 1982) is a South African rugby union footballer who currently plays for the Free State Cheetahs.". See here. That is what would appear on the Google main page, which is apparently your main concern. That's a compromise from my side. What have you done to compromise? Nothing, you just insist I remove well-sourced factual stuff. For the umpteenth time, this isn't original research, it's not a source that told me this on the sly. The changes I've made is available on several good sources as I've indicated. It's factually correct, non-offensive, non-libellous. There's even photographic evidence.

 * Actually, maybe you could have a look at WP:NPOV and WP:NPOVT – "Neutral point of view" is one of Wikipedia's three core content policies. The other two are "Verifiability" and "No original research". These three core policies jointly determine the type and quality of material that is acceptable in Wikipedia articles. Because these policies work in harmony, they should not be interpreted in isolation from one another, and editors should try to familiarize themselves with all three.

Sorry, but what exactly should I compromise here? All I asked you is to take off any updates from after my Connacht career so that I can finish my bar exams so I can be set after rugby. I am not allowed to write these exams if I am not working full time. Unfortunately I have a family and 2 children to feed so I can't work for nothing for 2 years while I do the exams. Now you have compromised that!!!!! This IS a position of power you holding!! Stop hiding behind your pseudo name and talk to me face 2 face. Even my sweet wife who has nothing bad to say about anyone can't understand why a complete stranger wouldn't consider a request from the VERY person the stranger writes about! DO YOU UNDERSTAND YOU ARE MESSING WITH MY FUTURE!!!!?????


 * Once again, I am not the one to blame. I have done nothing but collate information that is freely available elsewhere on the web. If there is someone doing a background check on you, then surely they will find it too and won't just be overly reliant on Wikipedia. Also, If you are not allowed to write exams if you're not working full-time – and then you don't work full-time – then you are the one jeopardising your career. If you're trying to imply any different, then that's fraudulent behaviour. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 08:52, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Fraudulent behavior??? What do you know? You have no idea the sacrifice I have made in life to accomplish what I have done!!And then one self-centered, self justifying hoarder of power-point facts about people he has never met wants to have a swipe? It's a joke! I'll reiterate again( and pls don't answer back in your monotone robotic style about facts etc....it's a coward's way of power-play), I'm only asking you to take down anything after Connacht. I'm not asking you to commit a crime or an evening with your wife or GF. Why couldn't you be an empathetic dude and just say "sure man, let me know when I can update it". Would it be so difficult?

Mightypeanut, will you pls update the page with the fact that I was involved in the cats squad of 2006 as well as adding the caps I earned playing vodacom cup. I also played in a WorldXV vs the Pacific Barbarians in 2011 and the South African Barbarians in 2013. As well, with the Griffons i made 27 appearences but 12 of them was currie cup


 * I added a new section called "Other" mentioning the World XV and the S.A. Barbarians, and added the Cats to the infobox. Re the Griffons stats - the Griffons only played 12 games in the 2005 Currie Cup and seven in the 2005 Vodacom Cup. Any idea what I'm missing then? Vodacom Cup stats on the official SARU site isn't great prior to 2006, so it's a bit difficult to track down. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 21:45, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
