Style comments regarding your recent edits

[edit]

One other thing I'd like to bring up, and this is regarding your article edits as well as your talk page edits, is your formatting. It appears to me that you simply paste text wherever your cursor lands. This does not make for a nice looking article nor easy to follow discussion. It would help a great deal if you could paste your contributions into the text in such a way as to add to the content and still respect the flow of the statements or conversation. You should see a "Show Preview" button right next to the "Save page" button, this preview will render your additions in what is called "wiki-markup" so you can see what impact the changes you are making will have. This is a great time-saver in case you miss the correct indentation or find yourself editing the wrong section (I've done that). It will also give other editors a way to clearly and cleanly respond to specific points and makes it easier for admins to decipher what's going on should they need to. You've added some comments to the talkpage of the Smiley Face Murder Theory article and I'd love to respond to them but they are so hopelessly entangled with other text that I just can't. You bring up some very good points, I just wish I could address them Padillah (talk) 15:48, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Warning

[edit]

Please stop. If you continue to make personal attacks on other people as you did at Talk:Smiley_face_murder_theory, you will be blocked for disruption. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Thank you. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:24, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I should have mentioned this earlier and for that I am sorry. I have been to the Wikiquette page and registered a complaint. I am still looking for proof that I have lied or a retraction. Padillah (talk) 15:16, 24 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
