Unfortunately, we cannot delete Northcentral University because you want it deleted, as there have been other editors who have added to it, regardless of the single user attacking it. You can request that it be semi-protected by going to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. Ryūlóng 03:43, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Regarding edits made during September 21 2006 (UTC) to Northcentral University
[edit]Please do not replace Wikipedia pages or sections with blank content. It is considered vandalism. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Thanks. I would also like to direct you to a policy on Wikipedia: Don't disrupt Wikipedia to make a point. Ryūlóng 03:59, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Regarding countenanced vandalism andn personal attacks
[edit]If Wikipedia elects not to block anonymous vandals AND refuses to delete an entry of which I am the original athor, I find it simply beyond belief that Wikepedia could consider me a vandal for deleting the text of an ACTUAL vandal. I would suggest you spend your time discussing etiquette with 70.59.246.169.
I am not disrupting Wikipedia to make a point. I am "disrupting" what my own entry because it has been repeatedly hijacked by an anonymous "editor" pursuing a vendetta and making personal attacks. And, by the way, I know that you can delete Wikipedia pages. It's done all the time. I know that you can block anonymous "editors." Bert Woodall
- I would also like to direct you to Wikipedia's guidelines concerning ownership of articles. The IP editors have been dealt with (to the best of my knowledge) and right now you are the one removing massive portions of text from the article, which is in itself considered vandalism.

I am removing the vandalism. I suggest you check the history of this page. And if I'm the vandal, why am I willing to use my name, while the person who deleted the original text and substituted, repeatedly, his anti-Don Hecht screed is anonymous?

You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule on a page. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from further editing. Ryūlóng 05:00, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future. |
- I'm raising the block to 24 hours as a result of your excessive reverts, disruption, and personal attacks against other editors. alphaChimp(talk) 05:07, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- As an additional note: you do not own any article. The nature of this project is that anyone can edit an article. It's the responsibility of editors involved to cordially discuss their disagreements and reach a mutual agreement on the content. alphaChimp(talk) 05:11, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

- As it appears you are in the PR business, you might want to look at Effectiveness of vanity articles for future refrence, especially if you a considering adding any additional Wikipedia articles about topics related to NCU. -- 63.226.38.202 06:20, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
== Oh, no, you needn't worry. Except for working crossword puzzles and using it as a highly questionable reference source, I am, I assure you, through with Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BertWoodall (talk • contribs)
