This is my talk page. Leave me messages here.

Note: I do suffer from several mental illnesses and may take time to cool down, for either personal reasons, or if a discussion on here gets heated. If I don't respond to you immediately, it will be for either for this or on Mondays-Fridays, school.

Stop

Seriously—take it to dispute resolution. You will be permabanned if you keep this shit up. I don't want to see that happen. 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 03:42, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a true dispute though, ATinySliver. One, he is using original research. Two, he is ignoring the established consensus that no one else besides him has tried to argue in a while. Three, other editors have reverted him on the exact same content. Wouldn't this belong in say, the Incidents noticeboard rather than the Dispute one? -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 03:48, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Read my last edit to this page before you blanked it: it does not matter. Take it to DRR first, then ANI if necessary, before you get permabanned. 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 03:49, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ATinySliver, should I now? Looks like he was reported at the edit warring noticeboard. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 04:00, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you still should; it is a continuing dispute that will end with you both blocked. There is exactly one alternative, but answer honestly: would you be able to completely let the whole thing go? 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 04:03, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm just going to let it go. ATinySliver. That's what I'm doing right now, and was planning to do anyway. It just causes disruption to the page and I don't need another block. I can go edit somewhere else. Someone else can revert him if needed. In fact, someone else already did. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 04:06, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits today belie any notion that this was what you were "planning to do anyway." Divorce yourself completely—those articles off your watchlinst, that editor's contributions ignored, everything. 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 04:09, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

When I said "planning to do anyway", I meant before your suggestion to do so. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 04:12, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay—but stick with it. You have shown you can be a productive editor, and WP loses too many to disputes. 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 04:14, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try, ATinySliver, but it looks like I will be getting blocked soon regardless. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 04:22, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"No! Try not. Do! Or do not. There is no try." 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 04:33, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be familiar with the phrase, "give him enough rope and he'll hang himself." This is why we back away from disputes. Cheers! 🖖ATinySliver/^ATalkPage 00:59, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ready Steady Go! (album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Peter Collins. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles.
