User talk:Lds/Editnotice

Welcome to my talk page. You can leave me messages here. Before you post anything, please read the following. Thank you.


 * Please abide by WP:OWNTALK, WP:EQ, WP:CIVIL, and WP:AGF when you post messages here. I strongly urge newcomers to click on the blue links and read those sections. If you consider yourself an experienced Wikipedia user, I suggest you refresh your memory if you tend to forget the basics.
 * Personal attacks, profanities, abusive remarks and anything of similar nature are not allowed here. If you dare to post any here (I don't care whether they are directed at me or any of my guests), you might receive a response or even a recommendation to a panel of judges if I deem your (perhaps pathetic) attempt at flaunting your talent in the fine art of ad hominem worthy of appraisal. There is no harm trying, so why not?
 * If you committed an act of vandalism with malicious intention(s) and you are here to ask me why I reverted your edit(s) (and maybe to vandalise this page as well), I congratulate you because your username or IP address may have already appeared in the Vandals' Hall of Fame and you might receive a ticket to go on a holiday soon.
 * You can play the Three-revert Game. If you are lucky, you might win an extended vacation or even an early retirement if you own the game.
 * My talk page is not a battleground for any wars. If I see any engagements here, I will nuke the entire section. The involved parties might even receive an invitation to join the Warmongers' Club. Yippee!
 * Sorry, no prizes for mediators and peacekeepers. You might want to try your luck at WP:MEDCAB or WP:MEDCOM instead.
 * If you disagree with my edits on an article, we can discuss the problem on either the article's talk page or here. I prefer the former because it allows other interested editors to participate in the discussion.
 * Please do not modify other editors' comments without their permission. If you wish to retract a statement you made earlier, please strike it out like this . See WP:TPO and WP:REDACT.
 * If I made a technical mistake or forgot to add an edit summary (which I hardly do these days), I prefer you to leave me a personal message to remind me instead of you conveniently using Twinkle, Huggle, or any other tool to put a warning template on this page. First and foremost, I don't need you to teach me how Wikipedia works. I have been here long enough to be entitled to display the award on the right. In case you don't know, my username is on the list of top 4,000 Wikipedians by edit count. So now you know you are talking to a Wikipedia regular.
 * Barnstars are welcome here. You probably deserve one if you have been diligently reading this set of rules line by line up to this point.
