Nomination of Glass jar for deletion

edit
 

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Glass jar is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Glass jar until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:38, 16 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • To be clear, yes, I am questioning your sincerity. I think you make a habit of doing things here, both in articles and discussions, that are presented as being in good faith but are in reality sarcastic toungge-in-cheek jokes intended to point out things you think are absurd. While I appreciate that on a certain level (having been known as a bit of a smartass myself) it really is not appropriate. Yes, there is a lot of absurdity here. No, being sarcastic is not a good way to rectify that. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:43, 16 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for notifying me about this discussion. I appreciate your remarks, but assure you that I am acting in good faith, and am pleased to have created some good articles during my time here. I understand that some may find my way of expressing myself a bit 'salty' - I think this is more about how I express myself rather than any attempt to make trouble here - I guess sometimes I just let my words run away from me. I spend a lot of my time having more conversations with goats (in real life) than human beings, so when it comes to conversing with people online I can occasionally be a bit blunt, and I apologise if that is the impression you have taken. All the best, and no hard feelings - although I do hope my article will be kept. Horatio Snickers (talk) 20:13, 16 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Jar, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sterilised (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

And stay off my talk page, fine having a laugh at my typos, but parson-person, vtap-crap, I was in a rush and could not be arsed to check for typos. Have a nice day. Darkness Shines (talk) 19:46, 7 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

I'm not going to deny I don't like the tone of what you were saying - and to be honest, I find Bugs's "fantasising" remark the most unpleasant of the lot. You are, however, free to have your own opinion on the subject, and I will honour your request in this circumstance. Have a nice day yourself. Horatio Snickers (talk) 19:50, 7 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
