User talk:Two For Mirth

July 2010
Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Callaway Golf Company appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe this important core policy. Thank you. wjemather bigissue 21:31, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Please refrain from attacking other contributors, as you did with this edit to Callaway Golf Company. Continued personal attacks may lead to being blocked for disruption. Comment on content, not on the contributor. Thank you. — Jeff G. ツ 21:35, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

To clarify, I was not attacking the contributor; I was responding to the vulgar terminology that was used to describe the update I posted. I am trying to update the page, but the editors seem intent on leaving outdated and incorrect information, and will not help or explain how to correct it. Two For Mirth (talk)


 * The accusation "you have some sort of vendetta against Callaway Golf" is unacceptable. Please see WP:CIVIL.  Thank you.    — Jeff G. ツ 23:40, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

It is unacceptable to revert a page to information that is incorrect, outdated and incomplete when another editor is simply trying to improve that page. It is unacceptable to selectively remove or replace information on a page due to personal preference, rather than Wikipedia policy. It is unacceptable to enforce different standards from one Wikipedia page to another. It is unacceptable to threaten to block or ban an editor simply because you do not agree with their edits. CENSORSHIP is unacceptable and reflects poorly on the Wikipedia project and process. You may wish to refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship. Thank you. Two For Mirth (talk)


 * Those are some serious allegations. Please provide detailed specifics for your claims of "selectively remove or replace information on a page due to personal preference", and "threaten to block or ban an editor simply because you do not agree with their edits" or indicate where you already did on Talk:Callaway Golf Company.  Thank you.    — Jeff G. ツ 18:21, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Please refer to Talk:Callaway Golf Company, and my message page, to which you have posted: “…decided (fairly in my view) to limit it to the major tours.” “I am of the mind that the whole endorsements section should go the way of the dodo, as should the current product line, …” “Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Callaway Golf Company, you may be blocked from editing.”

In the spirit of being a good Wikipedia steward, please also take the time to work on the page and improve it based on the information that has been provided and that is clearly incorrect and outdated; it would be much more productive than this. Thanks! Two For Mirth (talk) 23:01, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Callaway Golf Company, you may be blocked from editing. wjemather bigissue 10:23, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

I am trying to update the page to reflect current and correct information. The information that is being reverted to is outdated and much of it is erroneous. How do I update the information? Can you give an example of what "promotional material" is included? If there is something specific, it can be removed, but by reverting the entire document, you are reposting incorrect and outdated information that reflects poorly on the veracity of Wikipedia.

This is your final warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, as you did with this edit to Callaway Golf Company. Falcon8765 (talk) 10:28, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

How can you block someone from posting information that is correct? If there is something specific that is violating the policy, can you please explain? I am trying to update the page and remove incorrect information, as well as outdated information, that reflects poorly on the accuracy of Wikipedia. Can you help me do that?

 * I understand that you are trying to help, but you are making major article changes using wording that isn't neutral. Please talk about what you would like to change on Talk:Callaway Golf Company. Falcon8765 (talk) 10:40, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
