User talk:Hallward's Ghost/Archives/2015/October

Hello! There is a DR/N request you may have interest in.
This message is being sent to let you know of a discussion at the Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute discussion you may have participated in. Content disputes can hold up article development and make editing difficult for editors. You are not required to participate, but you are both invited and encouraged to help this dispute come to a resolution. Please join us to help form a consensus. Thank you! This is relation to the Talk:Edgar Allan_Poe dispute. I am not the filing party. Cheers, Drcrazy102 (talk) 00:11, 16 October 2015 (UTC) PS. I fixed some bad coding/formatting on the page that was messing with the Visual Editor display

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. ''Comment on content, not on contributors. Interfering with moderator control of discussions is disruptive editing.

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.


 * The above is pompous nonsense. I have seen several cases play out at Dispute resolution noticeboard but have not noticed anything helpful. In this case, as in many others, the DRN moderators attempt to be useful but are totally out of their depth with no knowledge of the issue or of how to moderate. Fortunately there is a simple way to handle the issue: ignore it, and ignore the misguided editor who started the DRN—just revert if their edit is repeated per talk page consensus.

 * Thanks, John. Robert has been accusing me of personal attacks and all sorts of other nonsense. I've collapsed his ludicrous warning. Hallward's Ghost (Kevin) (My talkpage) 08:21, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Good idea, and happy editing! Johnuniq (talk) 09:52, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
