| {{prettyquote|The sum of Caspian blue's contributions affirm my dour pessimism. If Caspian blue is joined by other like-minded tag team editors who similarly feign wounded indignation, angered offense, and stumbling-block misunderstandings as a disruptive tactic, the success of that strategy is virtually assured.

In the face of what seems like adolescent nationalistic ardour, any scholarly collaboration becomes quickly pointless -- especially in light of the entirely ineffective dispute resolution processes now in place. | |||

You have no right to do so, (an admin said that saying past block log is a "clear personal attack"). LordAmeth gave him a warning for his personal attack, and you're defending such vicious verbal attacks and adding yourself in the drama.

If you would not remove such attack, well, I would ask other admin who're there. REGARDS.--] (]) 19:46, 28 August 2008 (UTC) | |||

| :Read ]. It's entirely within the real of possibility that ] was unaware of the Japanese term and wanted ] to redirect to ]. When he found the article already in place he did the correct thing, at least from his understanding of the term, in moving it out of the way to create a DAB. | |||

| ==HIJACKED RfC== | |||
| This is the sequence of edits which are wrongly described as harassment. A simple question about the need for a credible citation consistent with ] is twisted into a ] for which I am not to be blamed: | |||

| *2. : In less than one minute, I discovered to my surprise that ] had hijacked the RfC | |||
| *3. : I posted a disclaimer on this page ... and the subject was simple: ''whether a citation is or is not needed'' for the explicit phrase "Yonsei Severance Hospital"? | |||
| *4. : I manually posted a non-controversial statement of the RfC subject on the appropriate page ... but this effort was subsequently hijacked as well. | |||
| *5. : ] defines the RfC as harassment, when -- as shown by the edit history -- this is naught but another self-created charade. | |||
| '''PROBLEM''': ] alone deserves to be held accountable for disingenuous complaints which ] has created.<br> | |||
| '''QUESTION''': What about the initial RfC issue? Without credible citations supporting the use of the explicit phrase "]," is it <u>not</u> "trolling" and <u>not</u> disruptive to delete the unsourced phrase after repeatedly asking for compliance with ]? | |||
| I do not know how to address this needlessly complicated mess. --] (]) 06:12, 23 November 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :OK, first off; have you read ? Last time you criticized Korean sources you based that critique on babelfish translations. The term Yonsei Severance Hospital is used in the English sources that Caspian provides. So I don't think you have much of a case vis a vie use of the term. One might or might not actually need to be sourced, but it is so there isn't really a problem there. | |||
| :Caspian blue is probably correct in classifying diffs such as this; as trolling. Especially since it's a version that does not include the statement you object to. | |||

| Thanks for the question - it is a phrase that gets around, although I'm not 100% sure where it comes from as I've never seen it expressed that way on any policy page ;) I'm guessing it's origin is ], which states "Misplaced Pages policy, which requires that articles and information be verifiable, avoid being original research, not violate copyright, and be written from a neutral point of view is not negotiable, and cannot be superseded by any other guidelines or by editors' consensus." I perhaps used it rather loosely though. What I meant to imply was that merely disliking a verifiable item of article content is not sufficient reason to remove it (with all the caveats of undue weight, reliable sources etc). I would only apply the 'policy trumps consensus' principle to our core policies and anything in place for legal reasons though - for anything else, consensus determines policy, so policy ''is'' consensus... at least, until a new consensus emerges.

| I know and understand the rule. However the correct menaing for disambiguation is between different '''topics'''. While the town is a redirect, it is a potential for separate page. Please keep in mind that disambig is a ''guideline'', to make things consistent. However unlike policies, guidelines allow some lax. In this case there is no harm to do how I did, but I think it is useful: is someone looks for a town, they still don't know which one and may think that only one Lazdynai town existed and go to wrong page without thinking that may be a proper choice would be described in Vilnius district. My version of disambig prevents this confusion, and this definitely trumps following the guidelite "to the letter". Please let me know if my explanation is still unclear. - 7-bubёn ] 22:11, 1 March 2009 (UTC) | |||
| :Taking the points as they come. Yes, dab's disambiguate topics, in this case the two of those topics are covered on the same page so there is no need to disambiguate between those two. When the redirect is expanded the need for a dab will emerge, but that will then be an easy fix. Both policies and guidelines allow lax, see ]. There is two harmful points about the current solution. (1) Readers looking for Krasnoznamensk must load an extra page. And (2) readers following the dab link from ] and on to ] will be more, not less, confused when they find themselves back at the article they just left. In general it is a bad idea to try to use dab pages to explain matters, content belong in articles. In this case the best solution is to incorporate the information that the Lazdynai district grew from the Lazdynai town into the lede of ]. ] (]) 11:09, 4 March 2009 (UTC) | |||
| ::(1) Loading extra page happens always when you don't know what you are looking for and the description in the disambig page tells you nothing. (2) There is no dab link in ] to follow. (3) Anyway, the issue is moot now, since I found out that the Lithuanian one was only erroneously called town in English sources; it was a village of a couple houses, log gone, so it is highly improbable that any meaningful info will be found about it beyond its name and location. - 7-bubёn ] 16:09, 4 March 2009 (UTC) | |||
