Revision as of 16:39, 26 April 2013
My user and talk page policies
I have noted that a few other Wikipedians have started posting such disclaimers, and I feel that I must as well, as my user page and talk page have been vandalized at various times.
- Vandalism will be reverted on sight. Period.
- Personal attacks will not be tolerated and will be reported on sight. Period.
- Defamatory statements will be removed AND reported on sight. Period.
I have read over MANY of the primary Wikipedia policies, and I do ask that other editors do the same, even newbies. I CAN AND WILL UPHOLD THEM.
Signed and updated,
John D. Buell

Work on Monopoly History Page
John, I'm going through my records having filmed interviews with many US & World Monopoly Champions to fully flesh out a history of ALL the country and world championships, not just US & Canada. I doubt that it will make sense to have 1 table large enough to contain all the countries, so we may want to revert the changes you made in reorganizing the tournament winners sometime in the future.
