User talk:WikinaziHunter

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Personal attacks are not an acceptable behavior on Wikipedia. Your User name is offensive and the list on your User name is offensive. Please rethink your approach. RickK 02:22, May 31, 2004 (UTC)

• I'm sorry if you find my list offensive. I will remove my list, but I would appreciate keeping the username. Wikinazi is not ment to be an offensive word, but rather a slang approach to describing the behaviour of some individuals on this board. When I put those names on that list they're not ment to offend the person, but rather enlighten them to the fact that they might not always be right. Instead of reverting instantly and starting a fully fledged edit war why not take the time to talk about it and maybe come to a compromise. I appreciate the fact that you did not edit my page straight away, and hopefully we can come to a compromise. WikinaziHunter 02:29, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

Any compound form with the suffix "-nazi" is going to be offensive. Comparing the enormity of the Holocaust with the inconvenience you experience by being reverted is intrinsically offensive. The suffix '-nazi' is designed to be offensive: is feminazi a neutral term? Then answer is no, and neither is wikinazi. - Nunh-huh 02:48, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

I understand where you're coming from. The use of the term Nazi is aimed more at the characteristics of a Nazi (ie facism) rather than implying that the user is themself a 'Nazi'. Besides, any way you look at it, it doesn't matter. If you want to prevent people from being offended, maybe you should remove Nigger, Faggot, Coon, Fuck and Shit from the Wikipedia first of all. Don't forget to ask "DICK" Cheney to change his name too as people could easily mistake his name for referring to a Penis. Oh - you might want to remove that one too :) WikinaziHunter 03:48, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

I don't want to remove anything. I'm just telling you that your name will cause offense, in case you had any question about that. - Nunh-huh 04:19, 31 May 2004 (UTC)

Don't remove categories. They're generally useful. Also, yes, your name will cause offense. ugen64 03:04, Jun 1, 2004 (UTC)

Oh, and it's against policy to revert more than 3 times in 24 hours. ugen64 03:04, Jun 1, 2004 (UTC)

Stop reverting my legitimate edits. You will be banned if you do it again. --Jiang 03:05, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Then Jiang too will be at fault will he not? Ok I accept the categories can stay, but the changes Jiang made to Soong May-ling should be removed. -WikinaziHunter 03:07, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The difference is that you will get banned and I will not. Care to explain what is wrong with my edits and why you are reverting them? --Jiang 03:09, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

It's pretty pointless to put in links to topics that don't exist. At least create a stub for that link first if you're going to do that. Also are you positive that she celebrated her 106th birthday? -WikinaziHunter 03:12, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The reason I ask if you're positive, is because it is a debatable answer. Some say 105, some say 106, thus being the reason why the edit I made reverted to the version which implied that it could be either. -WikinaziHunter 03:16, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I was under the impression that it was good Wikipedia practice to put in links to topics that don't exist (presuming that it is a topic that deserves an article), on the grounds that a nice red link gets in people's faces and encourages them to write an article, whereas leaving it unlinked doesn't. --Stormie 03:25, Jun 1, 2004 (UTC)

If I had to pick, then I would say 106, since that is how the Chinapeople like to count their age - start with one. She was either 105 or 106 but she did not celebrate both. She had to pick one and I believe it was 106. Since I can't back up my statement, I took out the claim.

It's not pointless to put in links to topics that don't exist. That's how the wiki works. But regardless, an article does exist at Eleanor Roosevelt and the br tag in the image caption was unnecessary and created whitespace. I don't know why you reverted those. Cheers, Jiang 03:29, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Ok, no worries Jiang. I was under the impression that the red links were more of a 'Wait, there's something wrong here!', but I can definately see your reasoning for putting them there after what Stormie said. As far as the age went, I too thought that it did sound odd containing both, but my first thoughts were that you had just picked a number as you didn't provide a summary of your edit. Anyway, not to worry all is sorted now. If I come across something similar i'll be sure to use the Talk page first. -WikinaziHunter 03:55, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)
