Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. It appears you have not followed this policy at Ireland. Please always observe our core policies. Thank you. Gscshoyru 12:49, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Ireland. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Ireland, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Gscshoyru 13:13, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

guitar3000, trying not to get off on the wrong foot!,peace offering!

[edit]

what's the story? Firstly, could I say that the purpose of this message is not at all to argue with you or your decision, just to communicate! I know some of my edits were over the top and not from a neutral point of view as is wikipedia's policy, and I accept that.

However, maybe if you had read some of my edits on Ireland, you may have found that some of them were merely giving a gaelic translation of Anglisised words, in order for people to realise were these seemingly English words came from, and other points did not constitute propaganda, which is defined as changing facts to support point of view. Fair enough, I did go a bit overboard, and I admit that, but maybe if you had read all my edits more closely you would have realised that some of them at least, were from a neutral point of view!

Well good luck, and I hope you will not perceive this message as being at all confrontational, as that is not my intent, nor is it in my nature, please reply guitar3000@hotmail.com

No way I give away my e-mail... I'll respond, as I should, through the message system here.
The single edit you made with the translation I didn't revert -- someone else did. I don't disagree with that one. The other times it was reverted was because it was mixed in with the rest... so go put it back if you like. Just be careful with being NPOV from now on. Gscshoyru 14:01, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, thanks, sound as a pound!
Yeah, I didn't expect you to give out your email, I'm only after realising that I'm after giving out my email publicly on the web,silly me
Couple of things, to help you later on -- don't make a new section for each time you talk to someone -- there's an edit button next to the section header, click it!
Use colons to indent as you post, one more per each level of conversation -- see the source of this page to understand what I mean.
And don't forget to use four tildes to sign your posts, like this: ~~~~
Happy editing! Gscshoyru 14:10, 10 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
