User talk:Oy

Your comment is inflammatory and uncivil. Do it again and I'll report you. Your edits were revert because the inclusion is irrelevant and not needed. See my comment in it's history if you'd like. Therequiembellishere (talk) 21:28, 18 April 2009 (UTC)


 * There are vacancies in terms under several pres/PMs, to include them all would be overkill, unsightly, congested and un-encyclopedic. The names themselves are linked for a reason. If anyone wants further information, they click it. Including everything obscurely related to someone is against policy. Therequiembellishere (talk) 21:30, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Saying "I would like to call on everyone, whose edits are constantly reverted by this user, to share their remarks here. Thank you.", "Have a nice day full of successful reverts" and extending my (frankly long-winded) comment into "immature, inflammatory, uncivil, impolite, wicked, loathsome and revolting" are EXTREMELY inflammatory and uncivil and you should know that; and I don't take insults lying down. Even though you are editing to the best of your ability, know that nearly all of us are. Forgive me for pulling seniority here, but I've been editing pages for a very long time, a great deal of them being infoboxes and I am well aware of what belongs in them. I don't want you to lie down and just accept what I do, but if you're going to contest it don't leave a comment on my talk with a rude section title and begin it with an even more rude sentence.

I revert a great deal of good faith edits and vandalism, it consumes a very large amount of my time here on the site, as it does many editors. If you bothered to look at what I have reverted, you would see that they are almost always for the best. I don't spend my time here to "destroy" other peoples work, I come here to make sure the articles are encyclopedic and when I see something that doesn't belong in the article, I won't hesitate to remove it so it can stay encyclopedic. It is useful to include that information but rather as prose in the article, not in the infobox, which is meant as a short, quick run-down. Sentences are never to be used in an infobox unless something specifically needs a footnote like on Mahmoud Abbas' page. A vacancy in the president's office is not something that can be hotly contested or is controversial, even if it is under a new state (which you didn't stipulate as your reason for it's inclusion), so it would be best to simply put it in the section themselves (although if you do believe it belongs in the infobox, I suppose it could be made into a footnote.)

 * Sorry, I'd actually just gotten into a fight with my sister right before I saw this. I understand what you mean, and I'm quite ashamed of how I use edit summaries instead of the talk page invariably leading to an edit war. And no, it wasn't. :) Therequiembellishere (talk) 00:47, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

 * The page was (and is) archived in a proper way. No idea why you may not have found it. Black&amp;White (talk) 15:55, 24 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, the archive you made after my comment is fine, thank you for doing that. As for : people spell my username like that more often than the correct version, so I'm impressed you noticed! Knepflerle (talk) 21:27, 24 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Maybe someone blanked the archive in the meantime... &lt; Black&amp;White &gt;  talk  01:11, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Karkonosze
There has been a new and expanded preferential poll created on Talk:Karkonosze similar to the recent Ireland poll. The votes from the previous poll could unfortunately not be transferred over to the new system and you may need to recast your vote. I apologise for the inconvenience. — what a crazy random happenstance 04:41, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the information! &lt; Black&amp;White &gt;  21:27, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
