User talk pages[[edit source]]
Hi! Please do not alter other users' messages on other users' talk pages. If something needs to be fixed, you can alert an admin if it's an emergency (vandalism, etc.) or leave it to the "owner" of the talk page to decide if it needs fixing. Thanks. Shambala108 ☎ 15:49, May 11, 2014 (UTC)
- Yes it did occur to me that you were trying to help. However, did it occur to you when I asked you not to do it that it was a violation of Tardis:Vandalism policy? Because it is. Please do not alter anyone else's message on a user page. Period. Thanks for your attention. Shambala108 ☎ 16:03, May 11, 2014 (UTC)
Look, I know it looks like I'm picking on you, but seriously I am not. It often happens that new users run afoul of our many policies, and it's one of the jobs of the admins to advise a user when he/she violates policy. Most admins don't even do this, at least not as often as I do; many just correct and move on without informing the user what they've done wrong and where to find the policy. When I've informed you of policies, I've been polite, but you've responded with anger.
At the risk of angering you by throwing more policies at you, here is one that applies to the current situation: Tardis:You are bound by current policy. It's not your job, or any other user, including admins, to decide when not to enforce a policy. All users are bound by all policies. And if you think I'm going too far, let me just inform you that you have twice left messages on my talk page that violate Tardis:No personal attacks, and I didn't block you for either occasion. Your earlier block was a failure to abide by a different policy after several warnings and reversions.
If you still think I'm being unfair, I suggest you take it up with one of our senior bureaucrats, User:Tangerineduel or User:CzechOut. Tangerineduel is probably your best bet, as CzechOut is very busy in real life as well as working on technical issues on this wiki, and doesn't spend much time here.
