User talk:24.130.14.173

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi. I'm not sure how familiar you are with Wikipedia practices. Many users archive their talk pages; I do, for example. Some like to keep a mostly-empty talk page and archive quickly; others let things sit around for a long time (as I do -- probably too long.) Some users don't archive at all but just delete messages. If the user archives, you can easily view the archived messages in the links to the archive pages at the top of the talk page. For users who don't archive, the messages are still viewable in the page history, although that's less convenient.

You've made a request and it's been turned down. I don't think it's reasonable to insist. The Wikipedia:User page#Removal of comments, warnings guideline says "Policy does not prohibit users, including both registered and anonymous users, from removing comments from their own talk pages, although archiving is preferred." --Coppertwig (talk) 18:39, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] April 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to There! I've Said It Again, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. It is against wikipedia's policies to remove sourced material The only reason would be to replace it with material from a better, more trustworthy source. Thanks!

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Mattisse, you created an article which was largely based on the opinion of a single book. The author was making a point largely concerned with the structure of their own work, and you seem to have interpreted this as a generally accepted social perception.
I was merely curious as to your reasoning. However, now it appears to me you are systematically inserting information into Wiki based on limited sources. What your goal is, I am uncertain. However, I will ask for community examination of much of what you have done.
