[edit] November 2007

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Area 51, you will be blocked from editing. Ckatzchatspy 07:59, 25 November 2007 (UTC)


Ummm. I would like you to check your edit history on articles more carefully before making acusations against me. You will find I actually deleted a paragraph by some person with the I.P Address of " 84.197.122.26 " who was posting about jews smashing into the world trade centre, which is racist and completley off the Area 51 topic. If deleting that trash is considered " Vandalising " as you put it I suggest you look long and hard at your personal views on life and the rules of WIKI again. Please dont threaten me with ban warnings in future unless you have genuine reason to otherwise I will make a official complaint to moderators about you.

Thank you.

This is the edit that you were warned about. You can review your contributions history to see for yourself. You blanked about three paragraphs of useful, relevant information. It was probably inadvertent. You may have seen someone else's vandalism, and by the time you went to undo it, someone had beaten you there and you undid another helpful edit instead. Anyway, these warnings are pretty standard, and nothing to get too upset about. Cheers, ➪HiDrNick! 06:07, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
Further to this, here are some links to show what happened. This edit, by IP 84.197.122.26, deleted the "Geography" section and replaced it with the racist material you described. Four minutes later, IP 71.11.128.83 reverted the vandalism, labelling it "racism and spam". Your edit was done over two-and-one-half hours later, and resulted in the second deletion of the entire "Geography" section (which at that point had no racist comments in it) with an apparently misleading edit description "Deleted A Pointless & Stupid Racist Comment." That is what I reverted; an unexplained deletion by a low-edit IP account with an edit description that had no correlation with what was actually done. Given the inherent discrepancy between the comment and the action, and given that you were editing with an IP address, and given that it was the first edit from that IP address in almost two months, I feel my actions were entirely appropriate and justified. As HiDrNick said above, you probably saw the racist vandalism in the edit history, didn't realize that it had been removed, and thought you were removing it. In retrospect, given who you are, I can understand that you might feel my edit comment was harsh. However, please understand that there is a lot (lot lot lot) of IP vandalism on Wikipedia, often accompanied by what the perpetrators think are "creative" ways of obscuring what they are actually doing. Your edit fit that pattern; while I'm sorry that this happened to you, but I would respectfully ask that if this happens again, you check out the related edits before talking about filing complaints. I'd be more than willing to help out if you have any questions about this sort of thing. --Ckatzchatspy 06:53, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
