Hi. Today I noticed you have inherited this work from JoshuSasori. I would be happy to improve it if possible, but I'm not sure whether if it is okay to edit another editor's userspace draft page. So I came to this talk page just to let you know the existance of Midnight Eye's reviews of Schilling's books.

Please feel free to use them. 124.102.48.70 (talk) 16:06, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you. As I said on the WikiProject, I only asked for this because I hate to see such article creation work wasted, just as I hate to see potentially good editors pushed out—in any dispute it takes two to tango: insults and perceived threats are generally taken very seriously on WP, while interference by people who have not contributed in any way to an article hurts a person just as much. I'm now regretting having volunteered: other writers in the same space—like Mark Schreiber (there's a brief entry for him on Japanese Wikipedia but nothing on English Wikipedia)—are arguably more notable, so it could be considered unfair to publish a Schilling article without doing a Schreiber article first, and I don't have a lot of free time. There are also other very good Japanese film reviewers like Kaori Shoji in the same space, and it would probably be unfair or look racist if I didn't do articles on them as well. I'm not an expert in the field, and reluctant to commit to doing a whole slew of articles—I don't have the time. I'd now be glad to hand the article over to somebody else in the field: it's not "my" article, I didn't write it—but there are so few volunteers working in the Japan-related space that I don't think anyone would want it. Guess I have to think about whether to do a Schreiber article first. I wish I could give you a more positive reply. Best regards LittleBen (talk) 16:36, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Stop it. Stop it now. Just stop. elvenscout742 (talk) 16:41, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Surely I had no idea that the above comments from an IP address were from you. LittleBen (talk) 16:52, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
They're not from me. But the personal attack in your comment appeared to be aimed at me. elvenscout742 (talk) 16:54, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't see any personal attack. I said that it takes two to tango. LittleBen (talk) 16:59, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You have now said "it takes two to tango", implying that I did something wrong, specifically implying that I did something akin to real-world threats, swearing, hounding, etc., numerous times. I have also asked you to stop making these personal attacks several times now. elvenscout742 (talk) 17:02, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I said that "interference [such as moves in controversial areas without any discussion] by people who have not contributed in any way to an article hurts a person just as much" (as insults). Surely that's not a personal attack. LittleBen (talk) 17:07, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Umm... JoshuSasori interrupted an RM in progress where consensus was building against the proposed move, and unilaterally moved the page anyway. And to the best of my knowledge he has never contributed anything to that article. Why do you keep bringing him up?? JUST LET ME FORGET ABOUT THIS HARASSMENT! It has now been over a month since JoshuSasori first got blocked for making a real-world threat against me. elvenscout742 (talk) 17:16, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
And... do you not know what "it takes two to tango" means? You have now accused me of provoking JoshuSasori and/or being in some way responsible at least three times. elvenscout742 (talk) 17:18, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@LittleBenW Thanks for your reply. I understand. I don't have the time, either. FYI, according to WP:MADEDRAFT, you can donate your draft to Wikipedia:WikiProject Abandoned Drafts for another user to finish. But I'm not sure whether if there is such another editor. Anyway, it's great to see you assume good faith. Cheers. 124.102.88.221 (talk) 12:09, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, again. This is just a quick note. I've just found some more sources.

Peace out. 123.225.25.247 (talk) 21:27, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
