[edit] Drawing a line under the history of the article and the talk

This article has had a rather tumultuous history of late. Without naming names, the party responsible for this has been blocked. During the course of this 'dispute', the article has been completely sourced by more than one editor, and has been re-structured and wikified. It still isn't perfect perhaps, but then, now that the article has been "brought up to code", it's in a prefectly good state to be further expanded and improved if anybody has anything to add. Later, I may well archive most of the talk before this page, partially because it is untdy, and I'd be lying if I didn't say that it was partly because of the numerous personal attacks on the page.

Future content in the article should be in accordance with WP:CITE and WP:OR, and I would suggest (though by no means demand) that editors might consider followin the sentiments of the essay WP:1RR with regards to this article, as per the wikipedia spirit - or in other words, discuss changes on the talk page :). --Crimsone 15:43, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

In general, the practice on article Talk pages is to do a complete archive, warts and all (save for examples of vandalism), so that editors can quickly and easily find information about the context of edits to the page. It's my belief that user talk should function the same way, and in the majority of cases that's how user talk archiving is done (though not to the same extent as article talk pages). A good explanation of how to archive is here. And yes, we should be very mindful of Wikipedia policies and the guiding principles of Wikipedia. Captainktainer * Talk 21:21, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
Indeed Captainktainer. I shall read the archive policy/tutorial later, but for the moment, if it's OK, I shall simply place the one discussion I've left out of the archive where it should be in that respect :) Thanks --Crimsone 21:24, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
Excellent. Looks good! Captainktainer * Talk 21:44, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
