Thanks

Thanks for your improvements to Confirmation bias. Much appreciated, MartinPoulter (talk) 10:30, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An urgent request: could you add page references for the books you've added. It's been requested by the article's Featured Article Review. I have access to the same books, but it would speed things up and enable me to concentrate on other aspects of the article. Thanks in advance, MartinPoulter (talk) 12:48, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The compliment's appreciated. As I had the Singh & Ernst book to hand, I decided to find the page number myself. You're still welcome to find the page ref in the Shermer book in case it's needed, but I don't think we need four refs for that one point.

Offensive and bulling language on Big Brother UK 2011

You wrote this on the above talk page:

If you're talking about the housemates page, discuss it over there. 2) The removal was perfectly in line with policies: WP:BOLD, WP:BLP and WP:IINFO come to mind. 3) You're the one edit warring against the consensus supported by policy. 4) You keep bleating on about free access and censorship, and I'll keep pointing you at WP:NOTFREESPEECH. 5) You realise "by one user in collusion with others" is self-contradictory, don't you? 6) For fuck's sake, if you listen to nothing else people try to help you with, will you at least learn to sign your fucking posts? 7) I think people have been incredibly patient with you, assuming good faith and trying to show you why Wikipedia doesn't work the way you think it does. We are trying not to bite the newbie. However, I for one have pretty much reached the end of my patience with you. If you can't at the very least read the policies and guidelines I've pointed you at (they're just a click away up there) and explain why you think we're interpreting them incorrectly without bleating about censorship or claiming you have a majority position when you very clearly don't, then I'll stop being educational and just help to prevent you from causing further damage to this encyclopedia. It's not too late - I urge you to actually take on board the advice you've been given both here and on your talk page (I know you blanked it in a fit of petulant rage, but you can still see the old versions in the history). If you do this and act in a collaborative rather than confrontational manner, you can help to make this article and others better. If you don't, you'll just continue getting frustrated. Your choice.

!!!Your language was offensive and goes against netiquette. Not content with removing content from the article, you are now resorting to threatening language and bullying. I will be reporting your contined violation of the code of conduct and hope that action is taken. You have been consistently aggressive and bullying in your dispute over the summary conent on the above page. This cannot be tolerated. It is web bullying.

I've replied to you on the talk page in question. I'll leave this here so others can read what I wrote and have a good laugh at your overreaction. (Context for the only real swearing: you'd been asked around a dozen times by several users both on the article talk page and your own to sign your posts).
