[edit] How not to be lame
I've blanked the threats and acrimony on this talkpage. I assume y'all won't miss them. So, it seems we have ourselves a little revert war. Yes, it is an edit war. User:Skull 'n' Femurs is not a vandal. User:Athelstanus is not a vandal. Deal with it. If either of you persist in making personal attacks or other lameness like this, you will be blocked.
Now, you blokes are both fairly new, so I assume you haven't experienced one before. Here's some tips:
- Edit wars are lame, even the ones that aren't really lame.
- By participating in an edit war, you're not a vandal. You're just lame.
- The person on the other side of the war isn't a vandal either, but he is lame.
- If this crap keeps up, either I or another admin will prevent any changes being made to any related article, and block you both for a minimum of 24 hours.
- Your problems won't go away if you just revert often enough to make the other give up, so forget about that right now.
If you're willing to co-operate over this article, and not just blindly revert and fling insults at one another, we might get somewhere. We have a policy of civility on Wikipedia, best summed up as Don't be a dick. Things to keep in mind: nobody here is a vandal; nobody here is a fraudster; and you may not threaten to sue someone here unless you plan to do it in a COURT of LAW in TRENTON, NEW JERSEY.
Instead of reverting, or making any controversial changes to this article, please discuss things on the talkpage instead. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 03:54, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

User:Skull 'n' Femurs has recently blanked the article, the contents of which I have reinstated. So much for "third[ing]" that comment. JSIN 01:28, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
User:Skull 'n' Femurs has left a message on my talk page saying that the page was "in edit", so this may not have been vandalism, I am not sure. This talk page had a large section blanked by that user, which I have reinstated. JSIN 08:59, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
Sorry JSIN, I missed you consecration as a demi-god. Editing and blanking are different. Skull 'n' Femurs 18:16, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
Coming in a bit late here, I realise. Please, guys, sniping at one another is hardly a productive use of anyone's time ... fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 03:57, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Edit Thanks
