Reversions
[edit]Hi there! I noticed your excellent contributions on Julian the Apostate and Gallienus. I wanted to give you heads-up that some (not all) of your edits were reverted by another Wikipedia user with some, uh, narrow views on what kind of information belongs in those articles. I'm currently under a self-imposed flag of truce with regard to his edits and am letting administrators and other parties deal with him, but I wanted to let you know (especially since you're a new user) about the changes he made to your contributions. Don't be discouraged or put off--this is not how life on Wikipedia normally goes! Dppowell 22:46, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit]About your edit to Romulus Augustus
[edit]Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. --Nehwyn 18:00, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
This is exactly the sort of commentary that is utterly useless to any new editor. One learns nothing and one is only angered by the message. For this reason I will be abandoning my editing of Wikipedia. I don't need this 'nonsense.' Now that's an appropriate use of the above word. I have sent in a request that this 'Nehwyn' be disciplined approriately. It's been real!
