== Optional notification == |
|||
Hi and welcome (back?) to wikipedia. You may wish to notify ArbCom of your clean start: [[Wikipedia:CLEANSTART#Notification_and_permission]]. This notification does not involve a public disclosure of your previous account. It helps to prevent future doubts as to the standing of the previous account. Bear in mind I'm just a random editor and my suggestion is entirely optional and you can choose to make no notification if you wish. [[User:IRWolfie-|IRWolfie-]] ([[User talk:IRWolfie-|talk]]) 11:20, 16 June 2012 (UTC) |
|||
:Thanks for your interest and the suggestion. Now that I've reviewed them, I think I understand the conditions under which I should notify ArbCom and I do appreciate your having pointed me to them. I wasn't a contentious editor before and I very much doubt I'll be one now, but as you say it is best to prevent future doubt.

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|link=]] Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to [[Wikipedia:Talk page|talk pages]] and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as on [[Talk:Dr. R.A. Vernon]], you should [[Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your posts]] by typing four [[tilde]]s ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button [[File:Insert-signature.png|link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts]] or [[File:Signature icon.png|link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts]] located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-tilde --> <span style="">[[User:Gilderien|Gilderien]] <span style="font-size:70%; vertical-align:sub;">[[User talk:Gilderien|Chat]]|[[Special:Contributions/Gilderien|List of good deeds]]</span></span> 17:12, 14 July 2012 (UTC) |

==Username== |
|||
*Hi. Your edits seem to be exemplary but is your username a pun on "you blow me"? It sounds like it is, and if so, that's not the best basis for a clean start. [[User:Shawn in Montreal|Shawn in Montreal]] ([[User talk:Shawn in Montreal|talk]]) 21:46, 20 July 2012 (UTC) |
|||
**I'm glad to know that you think my edits are exemplary. If you have a problem with my username, feel free to share it at [[Wikipedia:Usernames for administrator attention]]. For the record, you seem to be the only person who has that opinion of its meaning. Best of luck with your future contributions.

::I think its pretty clear that its "you below me", which while also suggestive is not nearly so graphic. Especially with your superscript/subscript signature showing the positions! [[User:Gaijin42|Gaijin42]] ([[User talk:Gaijin42|talk]]) 14:28, 31 July 2012 (UTC) |

== List of Defensive Gun Use Incidents == |

I saw your comment on the AFD. I have added some criteria to the article for inclusion in the list. Please review and see if this mitigates any of your concern? Thanks. [[User:Gaijin42|Gaijin42]] ([[User talk:Gaijin42|talk]]) 14:13, 31 July 2012 (UTC) |
|||
:The criteria do indeed mitigate my concerns -- not entirely, but you have put in some thorough and thoughtful work and it has significantly improved the article. I certainly won't be unhappy if this article remains.

::thanks for the feedback, would you consider making your !vote keep or at least neutral? [[User:Gaijin42|Gaijin42]] ([[User talk:Gaijin42|talk]]) 14:26, 31 July 2012 (UTC) |
|||
:::Thanks! It is refreshing to work with another editor who is willing to keep an open mind and review their original opinion. Quite often these debates become trench warfare, with no progress once an initial position is set out (a problem which I myself am subject too more often than I would prefer). good working with you. Let me know if I can be of any assistance in your interest areas on wikipedia. [[User:Gaijin42|Gaijin42]] ([[User talk:Gaijin42|talk]]) 14:37, 31 July 2012 (UTC) |

::::I've annotated my !vote. BTW, when I mentioned the "stand your ground" laws, I wasn't specifically suggesting that the title of the article be changed; merely that that concept seems to provide a useful lens for viewing such incidents and it might be another worthwhile criterion for selecting entries for the list. Thanks for your comments; I do try to bring an open mind and I like to occasionally remind myself that the function is to improve Wikipedia, not feed my ego by making me feel good about being "right", an evanescent concept in the context. Thanks also for the explanation of "Clinton-esque", which did not offend me. An American Supreme Court judge once remarked that he couldn't define pornography but he knew what it was when he saw it; I have always found that an extremely unsatisfactory jurisprudential expression and I take comfort in precise definitions (as you have probably seen).

== CKW == |
|||
* '''dear ubelowme''' since CKW is now deleted, I would appreciate it if you omit or replace your earlier sentence "The writing style is so obfuscatory and bafflegab-ish as to render it too opaque for me to make the enormous effort to plough through it" by some more balanced statement as this can be read by anyone interested in the discussion about the deletion process. Thank you. [[User:Culturalknowledgeworker|Culturalknowledgeworker]] ([[User talk:Culturalknowledgeworker|talk]]) 12:40, 3 August 2012 (UTC) |

:Thanks for your note. My understanding is that, generally speaking, the results of AfD processes are meant to remain as they are precisely because they are meant to be read by anyone in a future discussion process. I meant my comment to indicate that I had a great deal of difficulty in mastering the material sufficiently to make an informed comment, precisely because I found that the writing style was so opaque. It is occasionally helpful to the closing administrator to know things like that because it helps him/her to assess the weight to be put upon my !vote -- in this case, I added the comment in case it would allow the closing admin to give LESS weight to my comment if that was merited. Since my opinion of the writing style has not changed, I'm going to decline further action. Best of luck with your future contributions.

Hi Ubelowme. You !voted to delete. Your thoughts on the outcome? --[[User:Shirt58|Shirt58]] ([[User talk:Shirt58|talk]]) 10:50, 4 August 2012 (UTC) |
|||
:Thanks for your note. As I noted in the AfD process, I was entirely prepared to believe that I had missed something -- I find the Icelandic alphabet difficult to manipulate in search processes -- and I am happy to see that Wikipedia has gained a useful article for which I was apparently not sufficiently skilled to find sources. I look at this as a "no harm, no foul" situation and have no problem assuming good faith on the part of all concerned.

I am truly sorry, I was using Lupin's AV tool and I saw your name and followed the trail. I'm sorry that I got that confused. Thanks! |

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=|link=]] Hello, and thank you for [[Special:Contributions/Ubelowme|your contributions]] to Wikipedia. I've noticed that you have been adding your [[Wikipedia:Signatures|signature]] to some of your edits to [[Wikipedia:What is an article|articles]], such as the edit you made to [[David Prever]]. This is a [[Wikipedia:Avoiding common mistakes|common mistake]] to make and has probably already been corrected. Please do not sign your edits to article content, as the article's [[Help:Page history|edit history]] serves the function of attributing contributions, so you only need to use your signature to make discussions more readable, such as on article [[Help:Using talk pages|talk pages]] or project pages such as the [[Wikipedia:Village pump|Village Pump]]. If you would like further information about distinguishing types of pages, please see [[Wikipedia:What is an article?|What is an article?]]. Again, thank you for contributing, and enjoy your Wikipedia experience! <!-- User:28bot/templates/type5 -->''This is an automated message from [[User:28bot|28bot]]. False positive?

You might want to clarify [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FElder_Helpers&diff=506448430&oldid=506396018 this edit] to note that [[WP:NOHARM]] is part of an [[Wikipedia:The difference between policies, guidelines and essays|essay, not a policy]].

:Quite right, and I have done so. Thanks for the very appropriate reminder; some people involved in this discussion might have taken it as having more importance than it actually does. And thanks also for [[Wikipedia:The difference between policies, guidelines and essays|essay, not a policy]], with which I wasn't familiar; I'll be using that!
