[edit] Olmec

Salu. Thanks for your message on my talk, but I don't know what you are talking about. On another note, I've seen that you have posted to a bunch of (random?) users. This is not such a good idea. People might see this as wiki-"spam". --Ligulem 22:30, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I can only try to give some general advice. Arbitration is done by the Arbitration Comittee, but this the very last step for very tough disputes. There are many other steps that must be tried first. I know it is not easy for a newcomer. Lots of things look very complicated here ;-). The important thing is to stay friendly and try to discuss things with others. See also Wikipedia:Consensus (not an easy task!). A good help is also to assume good faith — sometimes we all make errors and there might be misunderstandings. I haven't looked into what kind of problem you have, so I can't comment on anything. Another possibility would be to ask for the help of a mediator. But this is also for already rather difficult to solve situations. Try to talk first and be patient. And if you do feel too much stress, try leaving the issue away for a day or two. And for a newbie: maybe staying away from disputes and working on something else could help too. Just some rough thoughts. --Ligulem 23:10, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't have the kind of French experience necessary to do an adequate job on the French School article. In fact, French School should be handled by those who are really experienced on the issues of the French Grammatical Society (I can't remember the official name, but they are the ones that create the rules of the language every year).--Zaphnathpaaneah 09:25, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Regardless of the accusations Madman and you are throwing at each other, I have to stress the fact that there are other people asking you in a polite way to explain further explain your claims. Simply saying "it's written there and it's your fault if you don't understand it" will not solve the dispute and may lead other editors to believe you are not willing compromise. Thus I strongly encourage you to engage in the article's talk page discussion and solve this dispute in the most civil way possible. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 10:47, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Olmec changes

Discussion of Olmec influences on Mesoamerican cultures has been moved to a separate article where there is a full discussion of Magni's theory. Please add any additional supported information there. The Olmec article, however, is a general article and it is not the place for a detailed discussion. Thank you, Madman 03:25, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
