Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 22:56, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I thought I did. Sorry--Snowleopard100 (talk) 22:58, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Classification of animal taxa=

Hello Snowleopard! You seem knowlegeable about the subject of zoology. I am also working animal related articles of Wikipedia. I have had some debate with some other editors (administrator?) about using subfamilies. It seems that some have taken it upon themselves to delete information on subfamilies which are useful to readers. Have you had any frustrations with this? I checked the Wikipedia Taxon page ( Wikipedia:Taxobox_usage ) and found this: "Taxoboxes should include all major ranks above the taxon described in the article, PLUS minor ranks that are important to understanding the classification of the taxon described in the article, or which are discussed in the article. Other minor ranks should be omitted." Was some council of the scholars held deciding more? What are your thoughts on this?

Deleting talk sections

When do you delete a talk section? Is it after the question has been answered and no discussion has originated since? Thanks--Snowleopard100 (talk) 21:07, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why not read the talk page guidelines??? You seem to believe you know them so this should be an easy one. ZooPro 12:14, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I've checked and it says nothing close to it except about editing what others users said. Thanks for trying to answer my question, --Snowleopard100 (talk) 22:59, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is generally accepted that everyone has the right to delete stuff from their talk pages, but not from article or other peoples talk pages. Deleting it is seen as an acknowledgement that it has been read and understood. Of course it is all retrievable anyway, so a bit pointless if the aim of deleting it is to try and make the user look good. --Michael Johnson (talk) 00:38, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

April 2010

This is the only warning you are receiving regarding your disruptive edits.
The next time you delete or blank page contents or templates from Wikipedia, as you did to Talk:Cheetah, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You reverted my comments on a talk page and as such have violated the talk page guidelines. If you do it again you will be blocked. ZooPro 01:39, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is an abuse of the warning process, please ignore. But ZooPro is right, you shouldn't revert others edits. If you have a problem with other peoples edits (and I can well understand why you had a problem with Zoo Pro's edits), there are procedures to have them attended to. As a start please refer to wp:civil. --Michael Johnson (talk) 04:20, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
