User talk:Riversider2008

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I've archived a few old discussions, a discussion around the NPOV dispute about the Mornington Crescent article which I feel has been resolved satisfactorily, and a helpful suggestion from another editor that I learn how to indent my talkpage contributions - I've worked out how to do this, and I can see it definitely helps with the readability of discussions.

In other news, I've registered myself as a 'Recent Changes' Patroller, I'm not technically minded, so I definitely belong to the 'old school' here. Nevertheless I think I've managed to clean up a fair amount of pointless vandalism, while being very calm and civil during the process. You will also see on my userpage that I've also signed up for the 'Counter Vandalism Unit' - basically because I love the cleaning lady logo.

It must be quite discouraging for someone who thinks it's clever to put in multiple factual errors and insults onto a Wikipedia article to find that their work has been reverted witnin 10 minutes of it being published - disappearing like a stone into a pond, but without the ripples. Finding that their hard work creates no impact whatsoever is definitely the best response this kind of vandal can receive. Riversider2008 (talk) 14:34, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
