welcome / callback verification

[edit]

Hi there,

First of all, welcome to Wikipedia. :)

Regarding your edits at callback verification - your edits are being removed because they suffer from several issues:

  • completely unencyclopedic tone
    • you can't yell at people in the text - a modicum of calmness is necessary
    • the text can't be prescriptive - it has to be descriptive
  • "this method is over used" - such a statement has to be qualified, and it should have references
  • the gist of your criticism is already described in the Drawbacks section (see the paragraph "If a server receives a lot of spam, it will do a lot of callbacks ...")

Please feel free to tell me if you have any comments.

Good luck. --Joy [shallot] 22:21, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]


But Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a software manual, and you can't use articles to complain on the topics of those articles. Please try to understand that an article that describes a topic does not implicitly attempt to encourage its use. There's a Wikipedia article that describes starvation, but that doesn't mean that Wikipedia promotes starvation!

If you feel that the topic is inadequately described, please use the talk page of the article. Go to Talk:Callback verification and explain where the description is faulty. --Joy [shallot] 10:53, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
