Calm down, dear! Calm down! I think that you might just be a little wrong, there! The Umlaut is most definitely also used, beside German, in the Finnish and the Hungarian, if not also the Swedish and the Estonian, languages, as well as upon (on) the Dictionaries of the Faroese and the Icelandic languages. (and your English is not exactly cut-glass, either, mate! and neither do I, I suppose!) — KC9TV 08:15, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

First of all, sure, the diaeresis diacritic is used in German, as well as Turkish, Icelandic, et cetera. However, they are not called "umlaut" in any other language apart from German. Saying that they "mark umlaut" in Turkish is a definite factual error, as the diaeresis is only used to mark umlaut (that is, an I-mutation) in German. The same diacritic has as different purpose in other languages. Furthermore, have a read at the edit in question: "used, among other languages in German to mark umlaut". Does this make sense in the English language at all? -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 11:15, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
So did I, come to think of it, I suppose. A bit of the "T.L.D.R.". Well, I do pray and hope that my subsequent intervention is to your satisfaction, Sir. I rest, your servant. — KC9TV 13:02, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

IP block exempt

I have granted your account an exemption from IP blocking. This will allow you to edit through full blocks affecting your IP address when you are logged in.

Please read the page Wikipedia:IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.

Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).

I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption.--v/r - TP 23:57, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

SPI report

Hello, just as a heads-up, somebody (99801155KC9TV (talk · contribs)) filed a strange SPI report about you and apparently didn't notify you. Nothing to worry about; I've closed it as rather obviously non-actionable. Please let me know if you want anything else done about it. Fut.Perf. 15:24, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

I'm in China at the moment. Access to Wikipedia and the internet in general will be iffy for me in the next few weeks. Right now I'm using HTTPS fine, but if Tor, VPN and closed proxies don't work for any reason, I won't be contactable unless via email (Special:EmailUser or whatever it's called). -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 15:54, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

Having a look at what he's written, I'd just like to add a few things:

  • It's not rocket science that I am 220.245.209.35 when I am in Canberra, Australia. My userpage even mentions it. I don't see how this violates any rules. No disruptive editing was conducted using that IP whilst not logged in.
  • I use IP addresses when I want to report a 4chan raid and don't want to reveal my Wikipedia username/identity, for obvious reasons. I say this at WP:ANI all the time, and I do this at WP:ANI all the time. Having my username show up when teenage internet warriors from /b/ show up is just idiotic. I see this as a borderline attempt to "out" me, but I'll assume good faith for now and ignore it.

I need to transfer some county maps from ZH-Wiki over to Commons so some county articles don't remain "off the map", per se, so could you enlighten me on this process? Not to sound lazy, but I am busy with other edits and want to finish a new 乡级行政区 list or two before term starts again. GotR Talk 04:40, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Oh, and how is winter recess going? BTW, I've seen some Southern Hemisphere climate sections here on Wiki remind Northern Hemispher-er's that the seasons are "opposite"—am absolutely appalled that we have to do that!
The Move-to-Commons assistant seems quite buggy lately, it never worked the last few times I've tried to use it, and I've had to move images to commons manually. What's supposed to happen is that a bot moves the file to commons for you, once you get a TUSC account, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

POV pushing at Prostitution in the People's Republic of China

There is a Korean user who calls himself User:Chinese-proti. All of his edits consist of making Korea look good (downplaying korean prostitution to foreign men), while trying to defame China by calling china the biggest exporter of women (and he deliberately inserts the word "local men" as if to emphasize korean prostitutes get f***d only by korean men while chinese women are whoring to everyone).

His english is horrible and apparently he is so embarassed by the paragraph on north korean women whoring themselves in china that he keeps on adding the claim that most of their clients are ethnic korean citizens of china pn both the articles about prostitution in china and north korea.

one of his edits summaries actualy says this- not a joke- "Korean women`s customers in foreign countries are mostly Korean men"Mitoese (talk) 21:32, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

i suggest you place the articles about prostitution in china, north korea, and south korea on your watchlist, because this guy is persistent in dissapearing for a few months and then showing up again to add his trash attacks on the articles.

I understand what you're trying to say, however keep in mind that editors on Wikipedia are here to contribute towards encyclopedia-building, and not nation-defending. Wikipedia is a neutral encyclopedia which will contain content that you will like, and content that you will dislike; that doesn't mean that one can delete content that you don't like. As long as content adheres to the core Wikipedia policies, such as WP:RS, WP:V, WP:N, WP:NPOV, WP:OR, et cetera, there is no need to delete it. There is process on Wikipedia regarding how things are handled, and doing things different from standard procedure is somewhat disruptive towards the entire system. If everyone was allowed to delete things they don't like, then we wouldn't have Wikipedia anymore - Japanese would delete Anti-Japanese sentiment, Muslims would delete Zionism, white supremacists would delete race mixing, AKB48 fans would delete SNSD, Nintendo fans would delete PlayStation 3, Americans would delete every single article on the FIFA World Cup because they're always losing, and no articles would be left. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 14:38, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Mousetext

Hi, I'm Dodoïste from the Wikipedia:WikiProject Accessibility. I requested the deletion of Template:Mousetext. This template was often used in a way that produces accessibility issues. And in the good cases it was a duplicate of the {{abbr}} template. Please use the latter template in the future. If you're interested to know the details of the accessibility issues, I'd be glad to explain.

This request has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is a deprecated template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by visiting the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Cheers, Dodoïste (talk) 23:31, 22 September 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the notification. I've redirected the template to {{Abbr}} since it's pretty much the same template; if you don't think this is a good idea, feel free to revert. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 03:13, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

The U-users

I pasted some arbitrary parts of U4930347's edits to Japanese opium policy in Taiwan (1895–1945) and into Google and didn't notice anything, so there is a possibility that they're not the same person as U4771212. However, there's almost certainly some relation between them--possibly a class assignment of some sort? I'm not sure how to handle this though... wctaiwan (talk) 12:55, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

A giant chunk of text really arouses my suspicions, especially since every single paragraph is cited by the exact same reference. That reference has a paywall (requires it to be purchased for $29.95 in order to be viewed), but my impression is that if the user has pasted a huge chunk of copyvio text elsewhere, what are the chances that another huge chunk of text isn't a copyvio? -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 12:58, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
Maybe. But the last time I saw a bunch of similar numerical usernames it ended up being a class project. If it's just a regular sock who can be reverted easily then there's little issue, but we'd have a problem if they have many accounts, are posting at a wide range of articles or actually turn out to be a group of people. I think I'll defer to your judgement, though. It's not worth it for me to get worked up over it so long as they're not POV-warring at Taiwan or something. wctaiwan (talk) 14:18, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

That article specifically says that the author is a self-designated "historian" from www.peftok.blogspot.com. Furthermore, this "story" makes no sense, because the 44th Division never had more than 20,000 troops (40,000 in a division is outright illogical, and is one of the most stupidest things I've ever read), and it's foolish to obtain information from personal accounts rather than official figures due to obvious reasons.

Socotra Rock

You posted some pictures related Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands. It's good work. Do you have any pictures related the Socotra Rock? Do you know Taiwan (ROC) policy of the island?--Syngmung (talk) 07:47, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Nobody really talks about Socotra Rock - it's a dispute, but it's quite beneath the radar. It is barely mentioned or discussed, in both mainland China and Taiwan, and isn't as big of an issue compared to the disputes relating to Baekdu mountain, Senkaku islands, Liancourt Rocks, Kuril islands, et cetera. Officially, the ROC on Taiwan pursues its "official" territorial claims as described here, which mostly overlaps with the claims of the PRC, but I'm quite sure in reality the ROC doesn't have an active policy towards Socotra Rock - it's more of a mainland issue, since it's too far away from Taiwan for there to be any effective or reasonable dispute. It's the same reason why Taiwan hasn't made any loud statements regarding Baekdu mountain, Aksai Chin or South Tibet, despite the ROC "officially" claiming its territory within its 1912 map borders. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 08:10, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
Thanks useful imformation. I see. Socotra Rock issue is mostly self disputed by South Korea. yes it is not island. ROC is unstable nation, so they dont strongly claim sovereignty over Baekdu mountain, Tibet, Aksai Chin, North Mongolia.. But Diaoyu/Senkaku Islands is very short distance, so ROC claims their sovereignty.--Syngmung (talk) 14:56, 9 October 2012 (UTC)


You Exist On WP By The Bad Graces Of Apathy

I simply can not underastand how your obvious trolling, obvious immaturity, and overall bad nature is continued to be tolerated. I can only summize that those with the ability to put you in place or otherwise deal with you punitively are too apathetic, or too tied up with petty and idealistic sparring with other folk. But do you honestly expect a mature and intelligent person NOT to think you're simply a troll or a troublemaker? I admit, I sometimes look at your history for "the lolz," as most of what you say and contribute is either absurd, or meant to be inflammatory. Jersey John (talk) 15:49, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Also, Wikipedia, at least in principle, is far above any sort of image board childishness. You should probably keep that in mind when you start ranting about what people are doing on 4chan (or some other ridiculous cesspool of immaturity), and not have it spill over to WM or color your perceptions of people here, nor should you have it influence in how you deal with other users and contributors, NOR should you have it slant your views or generalize whole races or nationalities (as you have done in the past). If it has that effect on you, then keep it out of WM. That is simply asinine. Jersey John (talk) 15:57, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Yang Kyoungjong

Hello! I've noticed that in the korean wiki Yang Kyoungjong is described as a fictional character. I wonder if there are any sources that can confirm that? (Or it's just an original and wrong research, as I think)--Fastboy (talk) 15:06, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

The Korean Wikipedia article is a complete mess, and is full of original research and uncited statements.

That Korean Wikipedia article is also full of speculation and personal analysis ("It could be possible that... it is likely that...") Per WP:OR, please do not introduce information translated from the Korean Wikipedia. I noticed in the Russian Wikipedia you included information about children - this is completely unsourced and original research, as is the date of birth.

mainland China vs China

While I agree with you wanting to allow "mainland China" to be used, I have to object to your sarcastic comment about "What's even more shocking, the meteorology department of the National Taiwan University has been infiltrated by evil nationalists with a pro-unification agenda as well! " In fact a university receiving government funds (I assume NTU does) would not want to upset their benefactors. Add to this the long lasting institutional bias that likely arose when the wealthier nationalists were more able to send their kids there, as well as staffing that likely came from nationalists. In short, if I were to guess I would say that NTU would have a bias in favor of the Nationalist position both for historical reasons and for reasons of current government funding. I think that was a poor example to choose for the point you are trying to make. Readin (talk) 19:25, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

Yes and I would expect them to move in a direction of less bias in favor of the KMT, with some professors even being willing to buck the trend and publicly support the DPP. But I think it would take a lot of time for the ingrained institutional biases to disappear completely. Readin (talk) 20:00, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

3rd party opinion request

Hey Benlisquare, there's a debate here on the Talk:Chengdu J-20 page as to whether or not it is a 'purported' or actual 5th-generation stealth fighter. The citation numerous authors have used seems to be unclear on this and I'm concerned 'purported' is a weasel word. I don't want to run afoul of 3RR, so please check in, thanks. If you find purported to be a weasel word, feel free to edit it out of the first sentence on the Chengdu J-20 page.

Concerning Jros83

Hello, I noticed that Jros83 (also known as "Jersey John") was not acting in good faith towards you on Talk:Sinosphere. I have been watching him act like this for quite some time. Do you think that any actions should be taken? (seeing his warning history & "contributions") Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia ChaseAm (talk) 22:39, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

Well isn't this interesting. Witchhunt? Calm down, both of you, and Benlisquare, your recent stunt is borderline criminal and if you do anything like that again, I will be in touch with authorities with a bit more power than facebook admins. And Chase, seriously, don't witchhunt. Jersey John (talk) 01:49, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
First of all, it's not my fault that you're not too bright about securing your own internet privacy. I'm not the idiot that puts my real name on my Flickr profile, and then displays all Facebook statuses publicly for everyone to see. I mean, Facebook has issued numerous warnings to users already regarding account privacy, ignoring them is your own problem. You don't have anyone else to blame apart from yourself - it's like gloating to everyone of your new expensive TV, putting it out on the front porch, going to sleep, and then complaining after someone's stolen it.
Secondly, Wikipedia has a policy prohibiting legal threats - see WP:LEGAL. If you continue making legal threats (even for things that aren't illegal, like using this wonderful marvel called "Google"), you may find yourself banned.
Finally, You don't really seem to think that there's any repercussions to trashtalking to everyone on the internet all the time, do you? None of this wouldn't happened if you were bright enough to think before typing, especially when 99% of the comments you write on Wikipedia talk pages are completely unnecessary commentary. Having a look at your Wikipedia contributions, you have made zero useful contributions to mainspace, and the only thing you do is trashtalk other people on talk pages when you disagree with someone's opinion. I get the feeling that you are not here to help with building an encyclopedia, and are merely using this place to pick keyboard warrior fights, or use as a forum. You have said nothing so far that is even remotely beneficial to the Wikipedia project, so don't start crying foul when you get treated with tit-for-tat diplomacy. Have a look at the things you are saying to others - not just me, but everyone here. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 07:16, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

As far as I am concerned this issue is over with. Chase I have made clear my personal position towards you and I hope you see it is genuine and as for you Benli I'll stay away from you, you stay away from me.

Don't you fucking "shame" me, buddy. Wikipedia is not the place for you to astroturf, you can take your shitty drama elsewhere, preferably back to Chinese Wikipedia, we don't want your silly, childish drama over here on the English Wikipedia.
The English Wikipedia has policies prohibiting original research, and what constitutes reliable sources. Your edits are in conflict with Wikipedia policy, regardless of how "correct" and "noble" you think your cause may be. Personally, I frankly don't even give a shit about your little rivalry with certain Chinese Wikipedia users, but you cannot expect to be allowed to take your dumb rivalry into English Wikipedia articles.
"Naming and shaming" users is looked down upon outside of WP:ANI, it's bad-faith behaviour. Furthermore, you're not helping your silly cause anyway; the Chinese Wikipedia has different policies and guidelines, and nobody from the English Wikipedia can do anything about it. You're better off complaining at meta.wikimedia.org as opposed to extending your stupid rivalry over here.
This shit has nothing to do with censorship. I don't give a shit about what little gripe you have with people over at zhwiki, and I don't give a shit about your censorship allegations, I am reverting your edits because they break the rules here, on enwiki. Fuck off with your childish accusations. I'm as much opposed to censorship in mainland China than anyone else (I repeat, I am opposed to the great firewall, government censorship, and lack of civil rights in China), however that does not mean that I can turn a blind eye to your shenanigans.
There is nothing wrong with me reverting your dumb, childish edits. I am upholding Wikipedia policy, and your edits do not conform with our expectations here. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 04:27, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Numbered policies

I read this story about Chinese numbered policies and remembered that you were the only one without a "delete" opinion on the subject. I think it's interesting that the numbered policies are supposedly based in Communist "statistics - the poster children of rationalism" and are related to ease with which one can internalize and recite policy. So, scholars like John Mason and George Wei and much more in China have studied this; we just need to find the sources... Shrigley (talk) 04:24, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Do you intend on re-creating the article, and rewriting it based on sources that you find? If I recall correctly, that article was pretty much just a "list" of things that had existing articles (e.g. Four Noes and One Without, Four Olds, etc), but if the article is remade with prose instead, I think there's enough justification to keep the article. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 05:22, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

FYI...

In regards to your edit summary here, and your talk page message, the "physical release" column was hastily created in a minute or two, from memory, to help solve an issue in a related related AFD Discussion. It wasn't meant to be region-specific or purposely exclude regions or anything, just a starting point created from memory.

On a related note, when you catch differences like that, it'd be helpful if you noted in which region they are available in, (or if its easier, denote the exceptions that aren't available), as to keep it more accurate, and less region-based, as you seem to aspire to do. As you changed it, you kinda just took it from one version of wrong to another. Thanks! Sergecross73 msg me 18:12, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Two: Alright, assuming that you are correct and you are not a sockpuppet, your edits are still bad. Per Wikipedia policy, edits must be backed up by reliable sources that are verifiable. Baidu Tieba is not a reliable source, and neither is Tianya. Your edits constitute original research, which is prohibited.
Three: Take your moonrunes elsewhere, this is the English Wikipedia, use English. You have no reason to be speaking in moonrunes unless you absolutely cannot speak in English, and I am quite certain that you are capable in English, otherwise you wouldn't have made those edits yourself (which would suggest that you are acting as a meatpuppet of someone else). Instead of trying to hide your nonsense from other editors who don't read moonrunes, spit it out properly.

Of Malays and Monkeys

I don't think it's reasonable in the first place to have that article become a list of ethnic slurs. Sinophobia used to be like this (and I even contributed some Mongolian-language terms, which I am proud of), but somebody converted it to prose without incident. Think of it as a last resort if he gets his 南蛮 stuff in the article. Hell, I don't even think that xiao riben should be an article; the creator was likely just butthurt that jjokbari existed. Speaking of which, strange that jjangkae doesn't exist yet. I could cite myself as an expert on the uses of that word purely based on my experiences of Wikipedia. Annie, just like SPI, can be capricious and unpredictable, but I don't think she'd hurt you for bringing Isuzu or a future incarnation there. Just let me know when you do, so I can pile on to the dogpile. Shrigley (talk) 15:53, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Li

Hi, it seems like you speak Chinese. Can you link all of the different 'Li' articles to the corresponding versions in the Chinese (and if extant, vietnamese?) wikipedia? One or two are linked, but others aren't, and I'm assuming they could be. also, I took the translation from the individual pages, but if you think there's a better translation for each of those names, please suggest it. This is a special case, even Jimmy Wales basically agreed to ignore-all-rules back in 2006 and keep the character in the name. It seems the only reasonable way to disambiguate, and I really find it hard to see how the user is harmed, when we have words like Þorgerðr Hölgabrúðr and Irpa and Jón_Jósep_Snæbjörnsson. I wouldn't want this to stretch BEYOND use as a disambiguator though. --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 02:50, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

File:8-2earthquake-kanto.jpg

Hello, Mr.Ben. File:8-2earthquake-kanto.jpg Please check about the contents. The notation of Source is a graphics file. Please add photograph printing page URL to the explanation column. I would like to check the contents of a page. Moreover, quotation of Description and the dead body of a photograph should explain the reason determined as Koreans. Source does not have the statement of a reason. Who took a photograph when and where? Is the copyright unidentified? The dead body of a photograph is Korean? How was it checked?(Tomotadara (talk) 06:45, 23 June 2013 (UTC))

Done. The image was uploaded a few years ago, so I had to look around for the original source to fix up that image source description, but the image is from the Korean Broadcasting System, and is held within the Republic of Korea national archives. The photograph was taken before 1946 in Japan, and so falls under PD per article 23 of the old copyright law of Japan. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 03:19, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your reply. Photograph description cannot be checked by the web page of KBS of the present quotation origin. I understood. In that case, I think that explanation of File Comment needs to be corrected. Because source which checks a date, a place, a photographer, and an author does not exist. A situation is a copy of an archive of the file which is visible to an old photograph. I also checked other sauce. However, only the private page and explanation of checking the photograph of the Great Kanto Earthquake and the body have been held. I was not able to find the basis whose photographic subject is Uyoku dantai. Suitable Information and Description of a file. 1923 The photograph considered to be the spot of Great Kanto earthquake. Date unknown, photography place unknown, photographer unknown, photographic subject unknown, and the archive KBS. This notation regards me as good. Although it is not suitable for Wikipedia:Image use policy...(Tomotadara (talk) 13:02, 24 June 2013 (UTC))
The KBS page seems to be the oldest webpage which uses this image. All the other ones were made after the KBS one, so I shall assume that the other pages took the image from the KBS page. The image is not a full one - it is a low resolution image that is quite likely to be cropped from a much larger photograph; I've yet to find the original, however. All I have for now is the smaller-sized image from the KBS source. As for the rest of your comment, I'm finding it quite difficult to understand what you are trying to say.

Taiwan bla bla

Hi Ben, I just saw this edit pop up, does it look concerning to you? I don't remember what the decision was about these things (I feel like I remember there being big fights in the past about edits like this), and I couldn't care less whether people want to all it Taiwan or the ROC, but this kind of drive-by name-changing of a political entity always raises an alarm bell for me. rʨanaɢ (talk) 13:15, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Pretty much after the big change that happened a year ago was that when referring to a government or political entity, call it the ROC or ROC (Taiwan), for example "Ma Ying-jeou is the president of the ROC". When referring to any ordinary person who geographically comes from Taiwan, it's acceptable to use "Taiwan" (e.g. Mr. Hsu is a writer from Taiwan). Since Teresa Teng isn't exactly a political topic, it probably would be better to use Taiwan, as opposed to ROC. -- 李博杰  | Talk contribs email 16:25, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

I have reverted your blanking of an article. If you wish to nominate for deletion, you should leave the text intact unless it involves gross personal attacks. If that is the case, remove the relevant text and contact an admin to remove the edits from the history.
Your speedy request was clearly misleading. You are not the only editor of this page. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:01, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Regarding your question "who is Sue Gardner", she's the Wikimedia Foundation's Executive Director, you could say about equal footing to Jimbo Wales, the founder. See User:Sue Gardner. In my opinion, while she's as entitled to her views as any other editor, the strength of her argument matters more than her identity. (This is also her own view, if you read her user page, she wishes to be considered as any other editor.)

For identity, I'd assign more weight to a comment from a member of WMF's legal counsel, such as User:Geoffbrigham, but they seem to avoid participating in discussion (probably for good reason). ~Amatulić (talk) 19:55, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Just dropping by to say hi to a fellow editor with similar background. We haven't worked together yet, but I like your involvement in China-related and (occasionally) controversial topics. Let me know whenever if there is anything I can help with. Alex ShihTalk 05:28, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Oh no!

What happened to the visually striking signature? Now it is more difficult to tell when somebody important is talking. I vaguely remember you saying that you fought bears or octopuses or something to keep the Chinese characters, despite many challenges. I sincerely hope that you're just laying low around a volatile Chelsea Manning situation and this change is not permanent (I know that you prefer "Bradley", but I prefer "Diaoyu Islands", and yet you use unadored "Senkaku" wikilinks...)

Nah, the change is permanent. I thought that having the same obnoxious signature since 2008(?) was getting stale, so I decided to change to something a bit more low-key and sensible. No longer is my signature extremely attention-grabbing, eye-catching and screaming of "LOOK AT MEEEEEE". Plus, I've previously been manhandled for having a non-Latin signature, and although I've ignored each little scuffle over it, I think from now on I'll stop being the rebellious rulebreaker that I formerly was. --benlisquareTCE 16:55, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Re: Regarding Dragon's Crown

No problem. It's just that it was good, referenced content pertaining to that section. I hadn't known that the blacklisted website removal requests had all been denied. I'll cease defending this chunk. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BigJackman (talkcontribs) 06:29, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
