Hi there! When editting material about living individuals, please be especially careful to pay attention to WP:LIVING. Thanks, Dave. --Davril2020 19:02, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Note that you are in violation of WP:3RR. This prohibits an editor from reverting changes more than 3 times in a 24 hour period. Continuing to do so may lead to a block. --Davril2020 21:27, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

You have made an edit that could be regarded as defamatory. Please do not restore this material to the article or its talk page. If you do, you may be blocked for disruption. See the blocking policy. Luna Santin 23:51, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I can sympathize with your plight, but that doesn't mean that Wikipedia is the place for you to resolve these feelings or problems. We are, first and foremost, here to build an encyclopedia, and that means that all content must adhere to verifiability and neutral point of view policies. As I mentioned, obviously negative and potentially defamatory material not meeting those policies will be reverted or removed on sight, per the biographies of living persons policy. Please bear that in mind and find a more productive way to deal with your frustrations. Luna Santin 00:46, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hm; if you don't think the article should be present on Wikipedia, you could always bring it to articles for deletion for review, where several editors will be able to comment on the article and reach consensus as to what should be done. Beyond that, I'm not sure what to tell you; there's generally a taboo against writing about subjects you're quite so directly involved in, as it presents all sorts of original research and neutral point of view problems. And, as always, we need to bear in mind the living persons biography policies. So, I dunno. Luna Santin 02:49, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
