Editing my contributions

• Don't do it again. There are specific rules on the wiki, and there's also history. DarthRevan 21:58, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

• Your right! There are rules about the wiki! You get a cookie! Where you messed up is posting your own groups crap to a Suburb page, which I'm afraid is against the rules. If I see it there I'll edit it every single time. As the rules state the Suburb page is not the place to post about your group but must be maintained neutral. --Jerkkkasaurus 18:37, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

NPOV does not mean that groups cannot be mentioned if they contributed significantly to events in a suburb (bringing in 50+ people and cleaning up a suburb in less than a week is contributing significantly, I believe, though you're welcome to disagree), and, in fact, you'll see groups mentioned frequently on various suburb pages. What is either against policy or is nearing the realm of bad faith is making edits such as your most recent one, which unjustly deletes useful information alongside the information you disagreed with. While I don't believe that your last edit (the "people" one) was in bad faith or against policy, your current one is, in my opinion.

In the future, the proper way to handle these sorts of things is not to delete or edit the other person's entry, but rather to move it to the talk page for the suburb, that way it can be discussed with others. I'll be reverting it for now, and if you disagree with my actions, you're welcome to take me to A/A, that way we don't end up in an edit war. Alternatively, and what would certainly be the best course of action, you can simply update the status of the suburb yourself with new information in addition to what has already been posted. —Aichon— 19:11, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

What you ask is reasonable so I Left the parts that "may" be useful and edited out the the non-neutral parts. I have also moved an original copy on to the discussion page.--Jerkkkasaurus 19:28, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

And now I'm reverting it to its original form. Editing a users comments is considered impersonation as it changes what they have appeared to say. You want to move it off the page? Fine. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 19:38, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

As I've moved an original copy to the discussion page "Editing a users comments is considered impersonation as it changes what they have appeared to say." This shouldn't be a problem.--Jerkkkasaurus 19:42, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Since there is no compromising with you people, I have just deleted it off the Suburb page and moved it to the discussion page.--Jerkkkasaurus 19:48, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Actually, I, personally, was okay with your edit, but Ross is right in that it does make it look like someone said something that they didn't say, which is against policy. Incidentally, Ross isn't in SoC or affiliated with us in any way, though, based on the few interactions I've had with him on the wiki, I do think he's a nice guy and looking out for the best interests of the wiki. Anyway, if we're just going to remove it from the page, there's no need (or desire) to leave behind an "edit" note. I'll be taking it out momentarily, and leaving the contentious comments off of the Roywood article for now. DarthRevan and John Spiro may disagree with my stance on this, since I'm acting without their consultation, just as an FYI.

In the future, perhaps we could just cite both of our groups instead? After all, I've seen your members around and contributing to the well-being of the suburb (admittedly, not in as large numbers as the SoC, but that's something that I don't mind since you're making an effort that's having an impact). It's a shame that something like this happened and that we had this disagreement, but if we're going to be allied and working together, I'd like to identify a way that we can mutually benefit from all of our interactions with each other, and if one of us is taking credit, there's no reason why we both can't share that credit. I see no sense in getting caught up over small things like this and hope that we won't have any more situations along these lines. :) —Aichon— 21:14, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
