Request Information

 * Request made by: DrunkenSmurf  02:06, 18 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Where is the issue taking place?
 * Park_Hill_South_High_School


 * Who's involved?
 * DrunkenSmurf
 * Chriswurst


 * What's going on?
 * Chriswurst created a great new article about his highschool but in the "Notable Alumni" section added himself (based on his username) and two others of which one is presumably a relative (again based on his username). I came across the article while just clicking "random article" and removed those people only to see them re-added later. Again I reverted with a better edit summary and Chriswurst put them back. I reverted again and left what I thought was an informative message on his talk page trying to explain why I had removed such items. He responded by putting them back and attacking me on my talk page.


 * So I left another message on his talk page and did not revert hoping he would read some of the things there and figure out why I reverted him. At this point I was on the wikipedia IRC asking people for some assistance as to what I should do and Triona took a look at the article and made the same revisions as me. Unfortunatley Chriswurst came back a later and added back in the "Notable Alumni".


 * ''What would you like to change about that?
 * I would like for another editor or admin to try and explain to Chriswurst why he should not add himself and his relative (brother maybe?) to the article in this manner. Not sure why he is taking it as a personal attack but perhaps if someone else talks with him he will cool off.


 * Would you prefer we work discreetly? If so, how can we reach you?
 * I am happy to respond to any comments or suggestions on my talk page, my email is enabled as well should that be neccessary.

 * Chris messaged me to accept my explanation as to why his addition was inappropriate. So it finished quickly.Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 04:38, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
