Recent edits to Mortis Rex

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to the Mortis Rex article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you!

I was not editing the page I was deleting it which was perfectly permitted at that time. Thanks for writing!Finkellium (talk) 16:28, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No what you did was page blanking. Deleting is a separate function that only admins have the technical ability to perform.Geni (talk) 19:40, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You say blanking I say potato. Thanks for writing!!Finkellium (talk) 04:52, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you read Wikipedia:Deletion policy specifically the second paragraph.Geni (talk) 07:27, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Read it, there was no doubt. Thanks for writing!!!! Finkellium (talk) 06:55, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You might want to look at this.

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding DoctorJoeEthread=Clarification please. The discussion is about the topic Ted healy. Thank you. —Zabadu (talk) 21:10, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see thisFinkellium (talk) 04:04, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see you found it. Thanks for looking. No one seems to want to comment on it, except friends of Doc Joe.Zabadu (talk) 17:16, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

June 2013

Hello, I'm The Magnificent Clean-keeper. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Amanda Knox, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. TMCk (talk) 12:44, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Alice Crimmins, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. Giant Snowman 15:49, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please tell me what you are talking about? I didn't remove any template and there is NO PROBLEM with the article. READ the links before typing something unhelpful like thisFinkellium (talk) 07:21, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- No, you did remove templates, multiple times, see here and here. You are also violating WP:BLP policy by adding contentious information about a living person here. If you continue with either then you will be blocked. Giant Snowman 08:26, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note that Visual Editor makes it very easy to delete templates with one accidental click. I have seen templates get deleted by VE editors who are unaware of this before. Lesion (talk) 11:03, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Lesion: - fair point, except Finkellium used the 'undo' button both times. Deliberate removal. Giant Snowman 11:15, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looked at the diffs, yes agree was deliberate. When I read templates I thought infobox, but this was removal of problem tags because the editor didn't agree with them. Appropriate thing to do would have been to discuss the issues on the talk page, not just delete the tags with no changes to the page. Lesion (talk) 11:21, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean I "never provided a reason"? You mean other than my edit summary which clearly states "'murderpedia' is not a RS, please stop adding contentious information about a BLP"? Giant Snowman 14:56, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- We both know what I mean and how you operate. None of the information is contentious in the slightest. I have now changed the source to the appeals decision of the NY Courts. Do not edit it again. Finkellium (talk) 15:03, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Please do not tell editors how to edit / not to edit, especially when your own editing has been no very, very poor. GiantSnowman 15:11, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - I am sorry, my editing has been what? This is the ENGLISH Wikipedia perhaps you clicked wrong upon entering? With all love and respect to your Giantness, there is not an Inuit one yet. Finkellium (talk) 15:17, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Finkellium, were you editing here at Wikipedia under another username? Just a thought after looking at your Contributions. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 16:10, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Liz, what name would that be? Is this some sort of set up or an attack from the forces of Snow? Was there someone previously involved with Alice Crimmins, an article that was just recently created? I am very very confusedFinkellium (talk) 16:17, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No trap here, just curious. According to your Contributions, you created this account on March 2, 2013 but you are reacting like someone who has been around more than 5 months, you sound like a Wikipedia veteran. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 21:41, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

ANI notification

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Giant Snowman 15:26, 23 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents with this edit, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Mark Arsten (talk) 00:38, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Okay you are going to have to trust me here- what did I do exactly? Not being a jerk, not trying to stir stuff up, I am clicking on your link and I do not see what I did. I didn't right Twattish or whatever. The only thing I did all day was try to defend myself on the ani board. So seriously tell me what I did to "disrupt" things and anger you. Finkellium (talk) 04:16, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - I think it's time for you to act like a grown-up. Mark Arsten is an administrator who pointed out to you that you removed someone's contribution for no apparent reason (that's disruptive). To say that you "angered" them is childish, just as it is childish to say that "you made them cry". The personal animus here seems to be yours, in some passive-aggressive fashion that renders you incapable of responding in a mature fashion; instead you resort to rather silly low blows and sarcasm. By now you've managed to get two experienced editors and two administrators interested in your uncollegial behavior. Tone it down please. Administrators in general don't like to block for personal insults, but if that's what it takes, that's what will happen. Drmies (talk) 04:29, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fee free to remove any contentious or unreferenced material about the BLP, and use the article talk page. Giant Snowman 11:55, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
