Please note Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/September 11 conspiracy theories#Discretionary sanctions. I'm involved, but the decision applies to putting conspiracy theories in the main article, as well as improper edits as to articles about the conspiracy theories. Please note that I cannot block under those sanctions, but there is probably at least one uninvolved admin left who can. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 02:13, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
- That would be me. DawnisuponUS, please review WP:SOAP and avoid abusing the talk page. If you want to post there, restrict your posts to suggesting improvements to the article which are cited to reliable sources. Thank you. SHEFFIELDSTEEL 14:05, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
- Er, excuse me, Mr. SS, sir, but you are NOT an uninvolved administrator for the 9/11 articles. Your edits have been all OVER the place there. Wowest (talk) 04:36, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
No personal attacks
Please see Misplaced Pages's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. This edit summary contains two attacks. SHEFFIELDSTEEL 14:08, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
- I'm threading lightly, as ever. Did you warn the other party about civility and misconduct? Is there a policy about double standards? I don't perceive you as uninvolved editor, but I'm always assuming good faith and I do appreciate the subtle formulation of your warnings. DawnisuponUS (talk) 01:44, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Oklahoma City bombing
Thanks for your comment. The article has definitely come a long way since others and I first started working on it. Hopefully, I can continue to work on it and get it featured. Happy editing! --Nehrams2020 (talk) 19:49, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Your edit to Donald Rumsfeld
What are you trying to say? Your paragraph right now is essentially a contextless quote with a strong potential for being read as a smear. Biographies of living people must be written conservatively to prevent such misreadings. It may help you to read our policy on biographies of living persons, as well as other, more general guides on writing at Misplaced Pages (e.g. Misplaced Pages:How_to_edit_a_page).
