Re your post at AN/I
I understand your frustration. The way Wikipedia works takes some getting used to! There are some problems that admins will help with, but there are many problems that people just have to work out by figuring out how to get along with others. For many types of problems, ordinary editors have just as much power to solve them as admins do.

Your post at AN/I is quite long, and reads like a story: this happened, then this happened, etc. I tend to write long posts too, but I've been making an effort to shorten things down drastically.  It's really much easier to read if you express your main point in just a few words, very clearly, at the beginning, and keep the whole post relatively short.

I think your point is that people were lying. If they were, that's bad; but perhaps they were merely exaggerating, and in any case I don't think administrators usually do anything in particular in response to lying. You need to figure out how to navigate the situation yourself. Feel free to discuss with me further. ☺ Coppertwig (talk) 00:10, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
