Decades

I have no idea what you are talking about since all I did was put the article in a more appropriate category. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 23:11, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, like you did at List of programs broadcast by Decades, you will be blocked from editing. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. AdamDeanHall (talk) 13:23, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

A summary of site policies and guidelines you may find useful

• Assume good faith as much as reasonably possible, and then about half-way past the border for unreasonable possibility.
• Noone owns any article here, or even their edits to articles. The text at the bottom of the edit page, right above the "Save page" button basically means that if you don't want someone to change or even remove what you add, then you need to use another site.
• Users should never make personal attacks on others. It's a good idea to avoid commenting on people, but on content, and then if necessary, actions.
• "Truth" is not the only criteria for inclusion, verifiability is also required.
• Always cite a source for any new information. When adding this information to articles, use <ref>reference tags like this</ref>, containing the name of the source, the author, page number, publisher or web address (if applicable).
• We do not publish original thought nor original research. We're not a blog, we're not here to promote any ideology.
• Reliable sources typically include: articles from magazines or newspapers (particularly scholarly journals), or books by recognized authors (basically, books by respected publishers). Online versions of these are usually accepted, provided they're held to the same standards. User generated sources (like Wikipedia) are to be avoided. Self-published sources should be avoided except for information by and about the subject that is not self-serving (for example, citing a company's website to establish something like year of establishment).

You're right, Wikipedia is not a personal site, which is why we require users to cite sources for new additions. Our article on the Sky even has four citations just to say that it is blue. This isn't a zero-sum game where one person has to be right and another person has to be wrong (and that sort of attitude is actually considered problematic).

Should User:AdamDeanHall have called your edit vandalism? No, he should explained that we cite sources, and how to do so. However, aside from the mistaken labelling of good-faith edits as "vandalism" (a mistake you also made), his post was neutral and any hostility in it was imagined by you and reflected way more than what would have been due even if he had been hostile. He did not call you an idiot, but you called others idiots. He did not accuse you of lewd conduct, and you failed to provide any evidence that he had engaged in any (accusations without evidence are considered personal attacks). Both of you messed up, and you moreso. You're new, and that'll get you a new chance to edit cooperatively, but you have to keep your cool and assume that others are here to improve the site, and not attack them even if they are real vandals.

As I already said above, "*Always cite a source for any new information. When adding this information to articles, use <ref>reference tags like this</ref>, containing the name of the source, the author, page number, publisher or web address (if applicable)." You can respond here, this page is on my watchlist. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:21, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Also, burden of proof lies with the person who makes the addition, not the person who removes it. You may be watching the channel, but those of us who do not have access to it need other means of verifying that information. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:23, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to List of programs broadcast by Decades. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Ian.thomson (talk) 01:21, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
