WP:External links
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wheatley_High_School_%28Houston%29&action=history

No, bad! You are misinterpreting the phrase. Five external links is a small number, my friend! An alumni website is a "perfectly okay" link to website. The links are ALL about the school and relevant to the school. WhisperToMe 00:00, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, Fred, I don't care you if you watch or log me on IRC. But, remember that #wikipedia cares if you log it and post logs. Also, remember that #wikipedia is NOT official, and Wikipedia rules do not necessairly apply there.

By the next time, instead of simply lurking in an IRC channel and telling me in Wikipedia "Oh, watch what you say," why not present yourself and talk to me? WhisperToMe 00:42, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Frederick Day, I cannot use that language on Wikipedia on you. You read my words, right? I said "I would say the same thing on Wikipedia, but in more diplomatic terms" - Wikipedia has policies AGAINST such language, but #wikipedia does not. WhisperToMe 00:48, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

As for Wikipedia-speak, I will say it this way: I find the idea of tearing away the small number of external links pointless and not-productive in any fashion.

Now, as for #wikipedia, I do business on both. #Wikipedia is an unofficial medium, but I happen to discuss Wikipedia-related matters on #wikipedia and talk pages. I find live chat easier to deal with than posting talk pages on people's pages, but, since only a few people use #wikipedia, I use both.

please explain
how was it an advert?

Hi
I was acting under Wikipedia policy, WP:CIVIL, by striking your blatantly uncivil and inflammitive comment. Please do not continue to harass me or threaten to report me for vandalism if I continue; your actions are totally out of line. Yuser31415 (Editor review two!) 00:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I like getting constructive critism. However, please be careful when commenting in my RfA; the 'crats would likely interpret your comment as being in violation of WP:POINT and ignore it. Cheers, Yuser31415 (Editor review two!) 00:40, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Statements of FACT can very well be uncivil, especially when you’re SHOUTING. In fact, your behaviour in this case seems outright rude. —xyzzyn 00:45, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
