User:Simon John Pearce


Not a permitted use of a user page, per WP:UP; and see Administrators' noticeboard/Archive278. Attempts to communicate in the normal manner at User talk:Simon John Pearce have drawn silence. Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 10:17, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Not an attack page, but a disgruntled user's departure message. These things are usually given a lot of leeway, probably because perceived censorship of complaint is far more dangerous than the complaint.  Usually, the complaint comes from a previously highly productive contributor.  This person appears to be a very narrowly focused person, who doesn't like to be directed.  The conflict was probably inevitable, as the user's interests were focused to details more fine than what most of us would think worth covering.  For example, "The two new platforms were reported to be 230ft long".  If we had to, we could demonstrate that it failed core content policy WP:PSTS (primary source information tending so minutiae that no other would ever comment) and WP:DUE, so in defending the complaint, I don't want to imply criticism of Redrose.  Was Redrose overly sarcastic?  Not more than Simon was overly sensitive.  I don't support deletion of the departure-complaint, a complaint not even a screed, but recommend blanking.  It is overly personally directed at Redrose who was mere responding not unreasonably to mildly problematic editing.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:48, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
