Your edits to the Russian succession article and Grand Duke George's article are stylistically awful and wrought with errors. Why do you repeatedly revert subsequent edits back to "your version"? Charles 20:21, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

In your opinion. It's obvious from yours you have no idea what you are talking about. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tfoxworth (talk • contribs).

Excuse me? And you do? What is your source for demoting Grand Duchess Maria to "Princess" while maintaining her as head of the imperial house? What is your source for making members of the Hohenzollern princely line Royal Highnesses? What is your reason for giving George a lower Prussian title and style IN GERMAN while putting the RELEVANT Russian title and style in parentheses at the end of his name? What is your source for giving George the surname "von Hohenzollern von Preussen"? You have no idea what you are talking about. Charles 19:56, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I do. I do not maintain anyone to be the Head of the Imperial House. That is all. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tfoxworth (talk • contribs).

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, as you did to Line of succession to the Russian Throne, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Charles 21:27, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Please stop. Or you will be the one blocked from editing Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tfoxworth (talk • contribs).

[edit] User notice: temporary 3RR block

This is a perfectly valid article. Why are you blocking it?

[edit] Regarding reversions[1] made on November 16, 2006 to Line of succession to the Russian Throne

You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future.

The duration of the block is 24 hours. William M. Connolley 21:44, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

I would like Charles blocked for violating the Three Revert Rule

Please sign your messages. And since he hasn't broken WP:3RR, why should he be blocked? William M. Connolley 22:28, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes he did, and he keeps changing my article. I have presented all the possibilities and will continue to do so. Tim Foxworth

There is no ownership of articles here on Wikipedia. The article as it currently stands presents the alternate lines of succession with the titles each side claims for themselves. That is the proper way to do it. Charles 22:35, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

The alternate lines IN YOUR OPINION! I presented all points of view- not just yours. YOU even kept some of my work in yours! Who do you think you are?

TF: *please* learn how to sign your messages, with ~~~~. Repeatedly not doing so is annoying and impolite. It is *not* your article. Being an expert - of you are - is wonderful. But you still have to keep to WP:3RR. Please read it carefully William M. Connolley 23:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Fine- I will change it once a day then. It is "not" his article either. Thanks for your condescending attitude by the way. I would like to request another arbitor. TF--Tim Foxworth 23:54, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] warning

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits, such as those you made to Line of Succession to the Russian Throne, are considered vandalism. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. wikipediatrix 20:11, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

I am trying to contribute- what did I do wrong? Tfoxworth

For starters, you've already been told to sign your posts with four tildes, not by simply typing "Tfoxworth". wikipediatrix 20:18, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry- fairly new with this- is the attitude neccessary?Tim Foxworth 20:20, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

If you can't even follow that most basic instruction, then yes. Since you hijacked the article by redirecting it to your own unsourced POV version, which you've already been warned against, then of course, yes. And since you've been warned on other instances, some of which you have removed from your talk page, then, obviously, YES. wikipediatrix 21:53, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Wow- and you never made a mistake. I didn't hijack the article- I tried to add to it. I haven't removed anything from my talk page. Lose the attitude. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tfoxworth (talk • contribs).

Do not make any major changes to Line of Succession to the Russian Throne without getting a consensus opinion on the article's talk page first, since your changes and additions are unsourced, POV, and extremely unencyclopedic. wikipediatrix 22:12, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

This vandal ought to be permanently banned. All Tfoxworth is doing is destroying encyclopedic content. Charles 22:13, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Charles' above comment is too harsh, in my opinion. Tfoxworth did not, originally, try to add very problematical things, and Tfoxworth's overall contribution actually is (almost) in limits of trying to be NPOV. Mistakes Tfoxworth did, were rather typical WP:newbie things. They got worse only in face of too harsh warring - and that is also a newbie trait. Both Charles and Tfoxworth need to discuss their views on Russian succession dispute in the relevant talkpage(s) with us others, preferably before they do edits that just anger the other. Shilkanni 00:07, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Shilkanni- still learning my way around in here- so far- not a place I think I want to return to.Tim Foxworth 14:57, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Seems to me that any impartial observer can see that everything Tfoxworth did wrong, he continued to do after having it explained to him why he shouldn't do it. It's way past the point to play the "don't bite the newbies" card. wikipediatrix 01:29, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
