Hello,
I am sorry, I posted in the wrong section. Never mind my post before this, it was a mistake.

I tried to post a valid, referenced material about Illyria and Illyrians. But that user, again is making me go nuts by removing material without any actual reason. I think you understand why I got nervous before. Here, take a look at what I wrote, and please, if you see that any trimming is needed or you can find a better location...

Please reopen this AFD discussion as it has only been open for a little over a day and the process specifies that seven days is the period for this. WP:SNOW is not applicable in this case as there were already numerous Keep and Merge opinions and improvement of the article had only just started. Colonel Warden ( talk) 06:16, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Are you sure about the speedy deletion of this article? As a non-administrator I can't check, but I have some recollection of adding sources that indicate notability. Phil Bridger ( talk) 00:06, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
Why did you delete the article? Ice ( talk) 02:19, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
Greetings, I'm just trying to get a current feel for who is still active in the project and if anybody would object to cleaning out inactive users of the verified user list. Thank you for your time. Q T C 03:49, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
I tried to leave a message on your talk page earlier, but there was a persistent server problem. That was a terrible block. He was clearly angry about this, and rightly so (I could give many reasons). Please reconsider the three weeks. Peter Damian ( talk) 21:17, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
I strongly agree with Peter here. -- MZMcBride ( talk) 21:25, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
If Giano believes that calling another editor a "pathetic little runt" is in the right, then perhaps this project is not right for him. Prodego talk 22:16, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
I believe that editors who appear to purposefully provoke other editors should be blocked for at least half as long as the editor that they provoked into a personal attack. Therefore, I'm asking you to block Xeno for 10 days. Yes, this will be a punitive block, but so was Giano's. Cla68 ( talk) 23:58, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
Tznkai has quite deftly explained to me how my actions were inappropriate; though I was simply trying to help as a humble wikignome, it obviously had the opposite effect. Clicking through to the article and editing was unwise and, as you pointed out to me, I handled the situation poorly. Please unblock Giano, or signal that you do not mind another administrator unblocking. – xeno talk 02:57, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
I owe you an apology for reversing your block. In the edit summary I did try to make it clear it was a 'just' block. I did not discuss this with you as a feared it would just ignite yet more discussion and drama. I hope this will now end and we can get back to being prodcutive. David D. (Talk) 05:20, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
I put this on one of the WP:Something or other pages. So please delete it if you have seen it elsewhere.
The Civility Policy has a purpose - The purpose of civility is to prevent behaviours that disrupt the project and lead to unproductive stress and conflict. If you consider and an action to be incivil, but the action is not causing stress or confict then there is no reason to block. Xeno has stated that he was not particularly bothered by Giano's words. There was no unproductive stress or conflict except perhaps to you Prodego as someone reading Xeno's talk page. The other participants on the talk page were having a heated discussion that appears to have stressed or lessened your productivity. If you were the one who was upset or stressed - then perhaps as an involved party - you should have let someone else block. Uncle uncle uncle 05:55, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
You made a good block of a good length. I hope you get away with it - there is a serious problem around here of people being far too lax on experienced editors that continually cause trouble and should know better. I got desysopped on trumped up charges when I tried a long block in that situation, I hope you don't follow me. Best of luck to you! -- Tango ( talk) 23:11, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
An editor has asked for a deletion review of John Wall (basketball). Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Stifle ( talk) 08:47, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello. I'd like to inform you that I have filed a request for arbitration at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Moni3 in which you are referred to by name, though not as an involved party. Best regards, Sandstein 14:08, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
I've added your name to a request for arbitration. Jehochman Talk 14:26, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
I noticed you declined my request for acc rights. Before I go any further, I want to point out that I am neither attacking, nor am I whining.
As far as I can see ACC doesn't have any rules as far as edit count, or tenure on wikipedia, just that trust is needed. I don't want to officially request an appeal, because I don't want to annoy you and the other admins who work on that, but I think I have earned, at least a small amount of community trust. I have adopted five users, and am mentoring one problem user in the hopes of helping him into becoming a better contributor. I have also been given the rollback permission by bibliomaniac and have used it (in conjunction with uggle) responsibly, with minimal mistakes. I have written articles, participated in dispute resolution, joined numerous wikiprojects, worked with admins to catch socks and particularly elusive vandals. On several occasions I have noticed an attack using huggle, and edited out only the attack portion in order to promote civility. While I understand your concerns, I do not understand what difference a few months will make.

Prodego, I earlier today while logged into this account posted a question on this talk page. After posting the comment the page loaded and I was able to view the comment on the page. The comment is no longer here and does not exist in my contribution history nor this page history. I am concerned as to how this occured; I have read it is possible for some administrators to remove things from page histories and I wonder if this is the case in this instance.
