A minor problem

Hi 192.203.136.254, I really hate to pounce on one of your first edits, but something seems to have gone wrong, and I’ve reverted your recent edit on the page Acid-base reaction‎.

Sorry for the length of this message, but since you haven’t been here before, it’s hard to tell if this was a test, a mistake, if you’re editing in pieces and weren’t done, or if this was vandalism. And there's always the very real possibility that I've made a mistake.

  • If it was a test edit, please experiment in the sandbox instead of in articles. You can do anything you like in the sandbox (within reason), without people like me sticking our noses in.
  • If it was a mistake, don’t worry about it. Wiki’s make undoing mistakes easy. If you were about to revert your own mistake and I beat you to it, sorry for jumping the gun.
  • If you are doing things in stages, please use an edit summary explaining what you’re doing, and people who see your edit will give you time to finish up. In fact, it’s a good idea to always use an edit summary to explain your edit.
  • If it was vandalism, well, please don’t do that. It takes a lot of effort to revert vandalism, and it can get you blocked from editing articles.
  • Finally, if I've reverted a legitimate edit by mistake, then I apologize. Please feel free to put it back, but make sure to use an edit summary or leave an explanation on the article's talk page so I (and others) know to leave it alone this time.

If you’d like to discuss this, or anything else, please leave me a message at the bottom of my talk page. --barneca (talk) 20:37, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Note: If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edits described above, you may wish to consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.

What happened?

Why are you attacking User:Barneca talk page? Igor Berger (talk) 18:32, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Stop it

If you continue to harrass me on my talk page, I'll have to ask an admin to block your account. Please consider this a final warning. --barneca (talk) 18:32, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

You're doing the same thing. Maybe you should stop then I wouldn't have any reason to be sitting here trying to defend my page against your threats. --192.203.136.254 (talk) 18:35, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Barneca is a very fare person she would not do something for no reason. What happened? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Igorberger (talk • contribs) 18:38, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I am trying to find the policy page, I just lost the link but you cannot threaten to ban people or get them kicked out of the site just because you feel like doing it whenever you want to. If you are an admin and you have something to say, then fine. But don't come here threatening to ban me or impose your own rules in whatever way you see fit or wish to interpret them when you have no authority to do such a thing. I am merely doing what's being done to me. Maybe I shouldn't be giving an eye for an eye but I have to defend myself somehow. --192.203.136.254 (talk) 18:45, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

You do not need to defend yourself and no one is threatening you, just show respect for the person. Good luck, Igor Berger (talk) 18:49, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

But it isn't really calling an eye for an eye or calling the kettle black to be honest. I am just using the templates as they're supposed be used, much like Barneca is doing. In fact, It's not an attack at all. If anything, what I am doing is constructive trying to warn Barneca that he/she is also out of line. --192.203.136.254 (talk) 18:53, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Just stop. Leave his talk page alone and go edit whatever you came here to edit. If you keep posting on barneca's talk page, then this IP is going to be blocked for the 18th time. MastCell Talk 18:54, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Templates are for vandalism not for regular users. As you saw user Bernaca left you a note not templated you. Igor Berger (talk) 18:56, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
