I noticed you created the article on "Darcy Gunning", which has been deleted as it is about an obviously non-encyclopedic subject. Please feel free to contribute to other articles which you think are encyclopedic in nature --- Deville (Talk) 01:50, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent comment on this page may be a well-meaning response to a racially-charged argument but it is not acceptable to insult others even in a "talk page" and contravenes the intentions and tenets of Wikipedia use. You may not have realized that your comment indicates that you are acting inappropriately. Treat my comment as a well-meaning yet illustrative request to adhere to the tenets of this forum.

There are "five pillars" of Wikipedia contributions. Briefly (or not so briefly), they are:

  • Wikipedia is an encyclopedia incorporating elements of encyclopedias, striving for accuracy with "no original research."
  • Wikipedia has a "neutral point of view," advocating no single point of view, presenting each point of view accurately and providing context, citing verifiable, authoritative sources.
  • Wikipedia is free content anyone may edit and no individual controls any specific article.
  • Wikipedia does not have firm rules besides the five general "pillars."
  • Wikipedia has a code of conduct:
    • Respect your fellow Wikipedians
    • Be civil
    • Be open and welcoming
    • Avoid making personal attacks or sweeping generalizations
    • Stay cool when the editing gets hot
    • Avoid edit wars
    • Act in good faith and assume good faith on the part of others
    • Follow the three-revert rule
    • Never disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point

In reviewing your latest comment, it is evident that you are not acting in good faith as a Wikipedian. You have contravened all five general "guides" to conduct and your comment is considered a personal attack per wiki rules.Calling people names is unconscionable and will result in administrative consequences to limit or deny you rights to edit Wikipedia. Treat my comments as well-meaning yet illustrative requests to adhere to the tenets of this forum.Bzuk 15:18, 28 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]
