[edit] Astronaut
Regarding your edit to Astronaut: It is standard practice on Wikipedia to use gender-neutral language whenever possible. Please see Wikipedia:Gender-neutral language for more information. Thanks, — Swpbtalk.edits 01:05, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
- Man hour is neutral, it is the vernacular, and just because some ball-busting feminists disagree, that does not render the word taboo. Thankyou --Confederate till Death (talk) 01:06, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

- The Wikipedia:Manual of Style, including gender-neutral language, is the product of community consensus, and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view is policy. Repeatedly ignoring consensus and policy can result in you being blocked from editing, so if you would like to become a regular contributor, it would be in your interest to read over Wikipedia:List of policies and make sure your behavior is acceptable. To that end, I would advise you not to throw around personal attacks like "hairbrain", "muppet", and "wiki-stalking" - I and other editors have a legitimate right to use your list of contributions to clean up consistent problems or policy violations. Finally, note that removing messages from your talk page is discouraged behavior. — Swpbtalk.edits 17:47, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Continued violation of consensus
Please stop making edits in conflict with Wikipedia:Consensus, as you did on School violence. Controversial changes should be discussed first on article talk pages. Ignoring community consensus can result in you being blocked from editing Wikipedia. — Swpbtalk.edits 18:51, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
