Re: "vandalism"
- Editing on a wiki is no no way a permanent change since everything is preserved in the history. Changing the article, either by adding things or removing them, is an expression of how you think the article is better off looking. Just putting things on the talk page rather than putting it in yourself makes things move at glacial speeds, so it's generally better to risk a little bit of conflict by just editing it into the article and then peacefully resolving anything that comes out of it.
- Also, you havent responded to my question above. I'd like to have a conversation with you about this, but for this I really need your help.
- The reason I'm writing on your talk page rather than the quote page is because the quote page issues have long since been settled. You can see the result [[1]]. This conversation is about your editing philosophy rather than what you want to happen on the quote page. VengefulDonut 14:28, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
- Your "question" -- exaggeration at best, baiting at worst -- is irrelevant to the quote page, and I already explained why in the talk page for quotes. But I'll reiterate here since you want it. Most pages on this wiki are matters of fact; verifiable, testable, who edits them is irrelevant if they get them right.
