Hi NotYetAnotherEconomist! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Come join other new editors at the Teahouse! The Teahouse is a space where new editors can get help from other new editors. These editors have also just begun editing Wikipedia; they may have had similar experiences as you. Come share your experiences, ask questions, and get advice from your peers. I hope to see you there! Ushau97 (I'm a Teahouse host)

Hi, NotYetAnotherEconomist. Common sense ought to inform you that the sentences "If you place a banner for an outside WikiProject, and a member of that project removes it, do not replace the banner. A WikiProject's members have the exclusive right to define the scope of their project, which includes defining an article as being outside the scope of the project." don't mean you can remove a banner, and then, when you meet opposition, go join the relevant wikiproject in order to remove the banner yet again. Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy, and your use of the quoted guideline WP:PROJGUIDE#OWN is what we call wikilawyering (please click on that link). Please do not remove the banner again without getting consensus for that action on the talkpage, or alternatively at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Economics, or you may be blocked for disruptive editing and edit warring.

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on User talk:NotYetAnotherEconomist#Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Randykitty (talk) 15:30, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. You are storming about the discussions with a very confrontational approach. We work in Wikipedia to achieve consensus and your remarks are not helpful in achieving project improvement. – S. Rich (talk) 17:26, 16 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
How are threats to block me helping in achieving project improvment? Please explain in great detail. I rather spend my time fixing the WP than arguing against Wikipedia Powerusers. NotYetAnotherEconomist (talk) 17:33, 16 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Last warning

[edit]

NotYetAnotherEconomist, I said I wouldn't come here until I was ready to block, but I've decided you should have one more warning. (Warnings aren't "threats", by the way. You wouldn't like to be blocked without having been warned, would you?)

I'm surprised to see you continue your wikilawyering on User:Onorem's page, considering you must be aware of the reception of those claims of yours at WikiProjectEconomics. You didn't even link Onorem to the discussion. I'm assuming that was an oversight on your part, and not an attempt to deceive him/her. But you need to stop this, as it's becoming more and more disruptive. And stop with the assumptions of bad faith, that I see on the WikiProject page.[1]. No, Randykitty and I aren't "friends", and I've never even spoken with Headbomb as far as I know. Is it so impossible to believe that several people can find you to be wrong, without being in a conspiracy against you? After all, you're a new user, and Wikipedia is complicated. It's not surprising that you need some advice from experienced users. Blowing them off with sneers about "musketeers" and "some more of your friends" is a very poor idea, as well as violating the policies Assume good faith and No personal attacks. If you keep on with this battleground editing, I will block you. This is the last warning you'll receive for your disruptive edits. Bishonen | talk 17:24, 16 August 2014 (UTC).[reply]
