  • Comment Since I was accused, somewhat out-of-the-blue on an unrelated discussion, of supposedly having opposed this DYK nomination, I should say that I don't care one way or the other, and had already both withdrawn my AFD !vote and taken a wikibreak (to get away from the harassment I was receiving on that AFD) at the time this DYK nomination was filed, and have to this point not mentioned it anywhere on-wiki. But in case it's still not clear I don't oppose this nomination. Please do not bring it up in relation to me again. Hijiri 88 (やや) 14:19, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
  • Comment It's not about you. Nobody "accused" you of having anything to do with the DYK. Your involvement was related to the deletion not the DYK.
To the extent that I had a misplaced participle phrase (which evidently caused your concern) I apologize. 7&6=thirteen () 14:21, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
I honestly have no idea what any of the above is trying to say. "participle phrase"? "misplaced"? "not about me"? I don't even care to ask; please just leave me alone already, and stop bringing up your past disputes with me in completely unrelated fora. Hijiri 88 (やや) 14:42, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
You showed up here. I did not invite you. Never mentioned you by name (a favor I would like returned). I corrected the participle on the other page. I have tried to disengage, and you follow me around. WP:Dead horse already. 7&6=thirteen () 14:46, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
