[edit] ROGNNTUDJUU!'s mass editing of talk pages of people using bad-eu userboxes

"Why do you insult the citizens of other countries? Imagine someone had a template like that on the US or Nepal. It's just bad manners."
  • I'm an EU citizen
  • Please explain why "This user trusts the EU about as far as they can throw it." is insulting anyone

Please do not cross flags on your user page. This may offend others and is even considered a crime in many countries. I am sure you are able to express your valuable opinion in a respectful way. Imagine someone crossed the flag of your country - also a union. ROGNNTUDJUU! 21:05, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

My country's flag is the saltire, crossing something that's already a cross... is that a crime too? Stop mass editing talk pages like that and reverting the complaints made against you on your own - that's bad manners! Simon Arlott 21:12, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

You are free to delete whatever you want from your user page. I hoped I would find someone reasonable. ROGNNTUDJUU! 21:16, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

How am I being unreasonable? You're the one deleting the comments I make from your user talk page before anyone can read them and see the response from all your comments accusing people of insulting whole countries. Simon Arlott 21:49, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

This ROGNNTUDJUU! also tries to piss me off with edits which amount to vandalism. See my talk page. hasofer 22:17, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Mine too, apparently his worldview is in risk of shattering because actual EU citizens are pointing out that they can be critical of a NGO of which their countries are a member. How very Stalinist of him. Unigolyn 23:13, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
NGO means non-governmental. The EU is joined by governments, and their citizens become citizens of the EU, so it is not an NGO. ROGNNTUDJUU! 23:15, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
The EU does not govern any citizens. The EU issues directives to member states who do the governing. The EU has no legal right to govern anyone, which they're trying to change by holding referenda after referenda on a constitution that the people it seeks to govern obviously want nothing to do with. Unigolyn 00:35, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
The EU has courts its citizens can address to challenge their country's government. Do not cross symbols of entities you do not even understand. And do not move discussions to third parties user pages, ok? ROGNNTUDJUU! 01:20, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

"many users keep their talk pages tidy - I prefer to keep discussions together" You're not keeping them together anywhere..., you're removing them Simon Arlott 23:09, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

That is wrong. I copy remarks made at my user page to the user talk pages where I answer to keep everything together. Feel free to do so, too. ROGNNTUDJUU! 23:14, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
How are you keeping anything together when this discussion is all over about 5 different user pages, and yours remains free of any debate at all? I reiterate, Wikipedia Talk is not some sort of instant messenger for having one-on-one chats with others - it's a public forum intended for discussion about Wikipedia and its users. You're the one who had issues with Wikipedians, yet you refuse to discuss it in a public way, on YOUR talk pages as common sense would dictate. Unigolyn 00:38, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
I keep everything together with every single user because I do not like phenomena like this one where someone else interferes. You get your answers on your own page. ROGNNTUDJUU! 01:20, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright infrigement on ROGNNTUDJUU!'s user page

Vandalizing other users' pages speaks about as highly of someone as crossing flags. ROGNNTUDJUU! 22:23, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

It was copyright infringement, the use of the image cannot be considered fair use in the context of your user page, only in the article about the character. Simon Arlott 22:26, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Another user just removed it and left me a polite message. Sorry, I was not familiar with the rule. ROGNNTUDJUU! 23:05, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
