User talk:Lixy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello Lixy, and welcome to Wikipedia! The first thing you should know is that we encourage you to be bold. Feel free to edit and improve articles, by clicking any 'edit' link.
If you'd like to test what Wikipedia can do, check out the sandbox - just type and save the page and your text will appear. That's the beauty of a Wiki.
For more information check out our tutorial - it's designed with newcomers in mind, as is the help section. If you'd like to get involved with current projects, have a look at the Community Portal. There are always tasks for users to do, ranging from copyediting to expanding stubs.
I hope you'll enjoy your time here, but be warned, it can become addictive! Feel free to message me, I'm more than happy to help. As an added tip, sign any message you post so users know that you've said it. To do so is delightfully simple, just use the wikicode ~~~~.
Once again, welcome!

==Please Use Edit Summaries==
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Patchouli 18:24, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: your message
Firstly, as far as I know, Wikipedia doesn't have a policy on subscription based links (except to note that the link requires subscription).
Secondly, I favour your edit of the article, and as such am reverting it. Patchouli's edit's are not neutral, yours are.
Merry Christmas.

[edit] E-mail
It doesn't matter what he says.
The presidency is largely a figurehead position. First, the president does not have leeway in cabinet appointmentsthe Supreme Leader has some control over appointments to the more sensitive ministries. Second, the president does not make military and judicial appointments.
You can revert my edit or create a section in Ahmadinejad's Israel article explaining this. However, the substance of the statement is singular and in all translation eliminations of the Israeli government was called for.
The there abundant stuff at Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Israel that I had overlooked.--Patchouli 23:49, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
It boils down to caviling over verbage that essentially mean on thing. I am boycotting the articles inasmuch as I have become exhausted.--Patchouli 23:52, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Firstly, the word is censor. Censure means to admonish or rebuke. Secondly, I would direct you to Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#Behavior that is unacceptable, you may wish to review the policy. -- Avi 22:01, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Firstly, I would direct you to the edit history; I did not revert the trolling. I would advise checking facts before making accusations
. Secondly, wiki policy allows censorship in certain cases, in general, personal attacks are one of them. Thank you. -- Avi 02:52, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Once again, it would be nice if you could back up your statements with facts. I am beginning to have difficulty assuming good faith behind your efforts, especially as they seem to be personal attacks against me, and distortions of what is posted. You do know that everything is there for all to see, and your statements, if I understand them correctly, have no basis in fact. As such, I am unfortunately forced to remind you that we have a policya aginst personal attacks. Please review it here WP:NPA. Thank you. -- Avi 18:17, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
