[edit] Constructive advice

Kei, anytime you and your friends want to actually, oh, you know, help with the encyclopedia, feel free. But if you're just going to use Wikipedia as a chat room, promote your anime site, and chat about how to vandalize,[2][3] you're eventually all going to be asked to leave. We're not required to assume good faith, when there is obvious evidence to the contrary. So instead of arguing with me about policy, how about actually going out and working on an article? Add a really good well-sourced paragraph here and there, or help fight some vandalism, and that will do far more to boost your credibility. Heck, even helping out with formatting would be helpful. Check Category:Articles that need to be wikified and scan through a few. Even if you're just bolding a title here and there, or adding a section header, we'd appreciate the help. --Elonka 23:21, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

They were being sarcastic/satirical with regards to how strict to the rules admins like you are being, and in case you didn't notice I'm not exactly "chatting" with them either (at least not here). Not trying to tell you how to be an admin, but the more you try to exert control over users over relatively trivial issues, the less likely users will feel inclined to act in the spirit of improving a website that seeks to "dominate" them. None of us have actually vandalized any real articles, and if you looked through my contributions, before this whole AfD debacle started all of us actually have contributed to fixing articles here when we came across errors and such (and I still am). But cracking down on small things like this is definitely not encouraging, I'm sure you would agree if you think about it, and there's probably a link to some wikistress link somewhere that says "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff". If you continue to believe I'm trying to disrupt wikipedia then there's nothing I can do (other than just give up trying to help), but I am actually quite insulted that you believe you have found "obvious evidence" I lack good faith.

The reason I continued arguing with you about policy is because you went ahead with your administrative authority to blank my talkpage under the guise of consensus of the ANI discussion. On the contrary, all I saw was a couple of people pointing to WP:USER and then drawing their own separate conclusion that a development article needs to be kept on a subpage, whereas it was not stated anywhere on WP:USER that that's the case. If it is true that I should listen to what an admin says regardless of what is said/not said on any wikipedia policy page, then at least don't point to something that's not there! I had links elsewhere on the internet that had people check over my article to see how it can be improved, and now I have to change them. If this was because I had violated wiki policy, then I'd be fine, but to me this just looks like an admin using her own definition of what the "spirit" of wikipedia is and deciding that somehow I'm disrupting wikipedia by using my talkpage, a page probably no one uninvolved looks at, incorrectly. Like I said, this isn't worth fighting over anymore, and I have updated the links, but I felt compelled to clarify my position here since I've been accused of trying to "game" the system and lacking good faith.
