I've responded to the question you posted at my talk page. Thanks! jæs (talk) 21:41, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
Firstly, welcome to Wikipedia. I don't post very often now, but, your haste has triggered my caution button, lol.
In the Talk:Chinese_language page you mentioned removing something if no evidence with one week was given. Would there be anyone who will edit the article within that time? Rather than removing it, place a citation needed on it, see: Citation_needed. Removing stuff may lead to it being reverted and you having a vandalism warning placed on your userpage, so the citation method is the best way to ask for evidence (or cast doubt on the statement) in the article as many won't bother reading the talk page, sadly.

My apologies. I didn't see that. I won't resort to a personal attack as you did, however. Have a good day. Cresix ( talk) 01:14, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Does it occur to you that the reason articles may not note where a person grew up is because that information is not readily available in sources, compared to information on where they were born?
Where a person lived or grew up is indeed valid for inclusion, so long as it's sourced. Removing it, therefore, is not supported by any governing policy, guideline or convention of writing. Observing this is merely reasonable, and hardly doesn't really require personal feelings on my part, I assure you. See Natalie Portman, Jeri Ryan, Arthur Adams, and countless other articles.
If you disagree, let me know, and we'll have a consensus discussion on the article's talk page. Thanks. Nightscream ( talk) 20:16, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
All I'm saying is, most articles in Wikipedia note that the person was born there. They do not say s/he was also RAISED there. See Mariah Carey, Natalie Portman, and the thousands of other articles.
I was truly surprised somebody would write me a response that says that I need to work on quotation marks and that my summary of the responses was totally wrong. Are you serious? No one's ever been that concerned to say something like that to me; instead, they would say that that is not what they wanted to say and make their point.
You did not present those statements as "summaries". You presented two of them as direct quotes, which is what the use of quotation marks denotes, and even if we put aside the issue of wording, you even attributed positions or sentiments to me via non-direct quote/paraphrases that I never even expressed, and do not harbor, which is illustrated by simple comparison of my messages to yours. This underscores the importance of clear communication between parties, in terms of both ability and willingness, and your continued cluelessness and indifference towards this important element is your fault, not mine, as is your inability to reason or articulate yourself coherently and your tendency to backpedal and rewrite history by claiming that things were expressed that were not, as with your mendacious comment about my bulleted statements. When you're willing to admit that your ability to learn, understand and express yourself could use some improvement, maybe such conflicts will go more smoothly for you, and improve your sense of judgment when editing. Until then, take care. Nightscream ( talk) 02:42, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Arbitration Committee election. The
Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia
arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose
site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on
the voting page. For the Election committee,
