User talk:Chocolate bar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Administrative discussions moved to user's talk page

Hi Chocolate bar, your conversation with Martin and The Trolls of Navarone was somewhat off-topic to the talk page of the blocking policy so I have moved it to User talk:The Trolls of Navarone. Hope you don't mind. Angela. 20:03, Apr 16, 2004 (UTC)

Well, now I do see a link at the top of the page, but it is a disparaging link because it places the discussion under a username associated with a widely disparaged concept. A better approach would be to create a page directly related to the topic of the discussion, rather than disparaging the contribution by associating it with a concept that administrators and some contributors use in what I consider silly, irrelevant game of name calling that has nothing to do with collaborative editing.

For now, this is all the free advice I want to share, at least associated with this user name. I could contribute quite a bit to this encyclopedia, but my time would probably be better spent contributing to some other charity that is not so related to one person's for-profit ambitions. I don't really want anything I write associated with Jim Wales, or his hateful, sexist far-right web site at Bomis.com. Maybe if the encyclopedia was offered over somebody else's bandwidth, the foundation would by necessity develop an approach that is more appealing to charitable contributors.

I see someone has moved it to Wikipedia talk:Clarity in Policy Discussion.
If you do decide to contribute more advice, under a seperate username, and end up talking to me again, I would appreciate it if you would clue me in on this somehow. Otherwise, I end up repeating myself, which gets tedious.
Thanks for editing,
