I have a tendency to disappear for long tracts of time, and often without warning. If you need or want my attention for some reason, it is advisable to use one of the alternative methods of communication on my user page.

There's more to this than meets the eye. Please read it before jumping to any conclusions.

This is to formally notify you of a complaint I have filed atWikipedia:Wikiquette alerts#User:Oni Ookami Alfador. Please feel free to respond there. Thanks. --Art Smart (talk)08:59, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there - I'm looking through the WQA complaint above. If you have a response, can you please make it at the page? It's generally preferrable (particularly for the record) for the subject (yourself) to respond directly prior to the issuing of Wikiquette Alerts or closing of complaints. Cheers -Ncmvocalist (talk)16:00, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't really feel the need to justify it with a response. It may not have been the wisest choice, and I will keep that in mind in the future, but I find it difficult to act any more civilly than I have to anyone who has immediately taken a condescending tone with me from the outset of our interactions (not to mention editing my talk page comments) and edit warring with other editors prior to my arrival. It is from this that I laid my observation of hypocricy and quite frankly I'm sticking to it. This seems to me as simply a content dispute being taken to a forum where it doesn't belong under the guise of some indignancy. If the editor involved really feels the need to grind his axe I don't mind, it doesn't interfere with my day-to-day, but I see no reason to get further involved just to see things (most likely) get inflamed further--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@18:09, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are you an admin? If not, why not let an admin decide on my speedy nomination as we obviously have a difference of opinion? Thank you. – ukexpat (talk)14:50, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The speedy process is for blatant issues. I don't feel it is blatant, and being an admin has nothing to do with it. There have been more issues with overzealous admins on speedies than I can count anyway. If you really care about it that much make an AFD.--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@14:54, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Sorry for my edit. I sawthe cite error in the ref. section and just tried to fix it. Thanks for your fix. Regards.Oda Mari(talk)14:57, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And likewise, thank you. Refs are a bit messy and every once in a while I slip and break something while cleaning up.--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@14:59, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As per your request, I re-reviewed the AfD in question and switched my vote. Job well done!

FYI, you were apparently in some dispute withuser:Hello. I'm new here, but I'm sure I can help out., who left a message atUser talk:Oni Ookami Alfador/Archive 2#Firefox talk page. That account was a sock of hardbannedPrimetime (talk ·contribs ·deleted contribs ·nuke contribs ·logs ·filter log ·block user ·block log). Should you ever encounter an account that seems simialr please alert myself or another admin. He is a malicious vandal and is not permitted to edit here in any way. ·:·Will Beback·:·03:40, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, must have missed this. Well, thanks for notifying me. I'll certainly keep an eye out.--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@14:06, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

After the umpteenth occasion when P17 has seen fit to rewrite the first sentence onnVidia in the active voice (along with the usual other half-dozen pages) and another round of "it's not banned so my actions are fine" onTalk:Dell, I'm considering a user conduct RfC on his continual slow edit warring to push the active voice in article ledes. He's been asked about it since 2006 to no apparent avail. Any thoughts?Chris Cunningham (not at work) -talk16:13, 6 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You removed the fact tag attached to the teaser date onAssassin's Creed with (what seemed to me) an unnecessarily harsh comment andpersonal attack against me for adding it. The reason I added that tag was because we have no evidence of how long that teaser has been available (it could have been there since February for all we know). Another editor has looked around and found no other links to that page to justify when it was added. Therefore, I believe the date needs some justification, but the sentence reads better with the date there - hence the fact tag. ~~[ジャム]^[t - c]08:40, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This comment toShellac isn't acceptable etiquette and crosses over intoWP:NPA territory. Other comments around the same time are similar in tone. I'm posting this in particular because it was a reasonable edit (apart from the comment) and I'm far enough away from the content that I don't think you can claim I'm merely biased because your deleting my edits. Not good practice though, and you seem to have a past history of such 8-(Andy Dingley (talk)13:59, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
