[edit] Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your wanting to post information about yourself, and ask that before continuing to edit here that you please read our Welcome Page to learn about Wikipedia policy, procedures, editorial guidelines and standards, and What Wikipedia is not. Please not conflict-of-interest guidelines particularly. Thank you. --Tenebrae 15:51, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Uncivil behavior

To anonymous IPs Special:Contributions/71.139.206.22 and Special:Contributions/71.139.186.65, who may be the same person: We have established procedures and civility guidelines at Wikipedia, and you have repeatedly broken both of these, despite attempts by fellow editors to improve the article by tagging it for additional material, and who have behaved in good faith and following the tenets of Wiki Etqiuette.

There is no place whatsoever for insults such as "Notable enough for you, Wikipedia nerds," nor paranoid conspiracy-theory claims such as "This is a stupid Wikipedia antic to debunk an internationally recognized artist."

Let's leave aside the possibility, given the rabidly personal nature of these attacks, that this may be the subject of the article himself (and please see WP:COI if that is the case.) We do not unilaterally remove tags. We engage in dialog. As I suggested, have you contacted the editor who tagged this article, User:Wildhartlivie, and opened a dialog as to his objections? Have you opened a dialog on this talk page?

I'm going to ask you to do these things, in order to follow proper procedure — this is an encyclopedia, after all, and a serious endeavor — and to please behave civilly. If not, Wikipedia has procedures for blocking or banning disruptive editors. No more insults, please speak politely, and please engage in dialog. Thanks. --Tenebrae (talk) 05:43, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

No more insults - yes, on both ends. By the way, I am not Eric Leiser - but I have grown tired of Wikipedia taking pages down without probable cause. IS Wikipedia a serious affair? I posted 3 interviews that were taken down - and I feel I should not have to contact Wildhartwhatever as they acted initially without just cause. Why don't you take your special little tags off of pages of artists who are notible and internationally recognized?

Sorry for calling you nerds, as if this was a personal insult - no, no, you are just people who spend all of their free time putting imaginary tags on editable online articles. You're right. And "Paranoid conspiracy-theory claims?" No, I don't take this thing that seriously. I mean - the guy who runs this site edited his own page about an ex-girlfriend, right? No big deal, right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.47.113.186 (talk) 22:11, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Wow. That's all I can say about that bitter post above. Insults, name-calling, and a personal attack on someone. Amazing. --151.205.28.11 (talk) 00:41, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
