Please do not add unhelpful and unconstructive content to Wikipedia, as you did to Alan Oliver. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Neil916 (Talk) 16:06, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Kieron Dyer, you will be blocked from editing. - Dudesleeper · Talk 13:28, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well to be fair, I stand by both the quality (or lack of) of Alan Oliver's journalism and Kieron Dyer's supposed football ability - as do the vast majority of Newcastle fans.. Warnings heeded though, I will ensure no more "vandalism" occurs..

There wasn't much in the way of facts in your edits - they were largely point-of-view - but credit to you for realising your wrongdoing. Hopefully you can help out in a constructive manner with the Newcastle article. - Dudesleeper · Talk 14:48, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was mostly point-of-view, and only removing those parts would make it incoherent. You're still ranting about Alan Oliver, I see. Time to let it go, methinks. - Dudesleeper · Talk 19:14, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

How is what I printed dramatically different from the Alex Rodriguez section entitled "criticism"?

Those small things called references. - Dudesleeper · Talk 14:26, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An unsightly-but-permissible reference format is to put single square brackets either side of the URL. So, [http://icnewcastle.icnetwork.co.uk/newcastleunited/news/tm_method=full%26objectid=14537446%26siteid=50081-name_page.html] equals [1]. But you can't just put one at the end of a paragraph if there are several items that need sourcing throughout the clause (quotes, for example); you would have to provide a reference for each one. - Dudesleeper · Talk 15:28, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
