Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Iraq War, have removed content without a good reason to do so. Content on Wikipedia should not be removed just because you disagree with it or because you think it's wrong, unless the claim is not verifiable. Instead, you should consider expanding the article with noteworthy and verifiable information of your own, citing reliable sources when you do so. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Iraq War, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 16:31, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Iraq War. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 16:58, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

@User60314: - at some point we have to ask just what the encyclopaedic value is of all these nicknames throughout the prose. I will leave this to others to weigh in. Also, please stop adding all that needless spacing to the infobox templates. Thank you - wolf 22:14, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: - Thanks for your input (Personal attack removed). What needless space are you referring to? User60314 (talk)User60314

I would've thought that "adding needless spacing to infobox(es)" was fairly clear, since you did just that, earlier today. Also, please refrain from insulting other editors. Thank you - wolf 23:52, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: - If you don’t like the response you are given sir, then quit with the condescending comments. I’m not attacking you, I’m calling you out. You seem to like to assert your dominance but don’t like it when you get responded to in like manner. I added a nickname to the info box. If there was addition of needless space it was not intentional. I would have gladly corrected it. Your condescension in needless. I will leave this to others to weigh in.— Preceding unsigned comment added by User60314 (talk • contribs) 20:15, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@User60314 "I’m calling you out. You seem to like to assert your dominance but don’t like it when you get responded to in like manner." - you call a fairly a simple request, accompanied with a "please & thank you" no less, as "asserting my dominance"? And "condescendingly" at that? Well, all I can tell you is that we all seem to have different degrees of sensitivity, and some here can be offended more easily than others, as it seems I have done with you That was not my intention. That said, the one constant here is the policies & guidelines. We don't "call out" other editors with personal attacks. This is not a 4-chan message board. I would strongly encourage you focus on content, not other editors. You are still new here and have much to learn. Trying to "assert your dominance" over others is not going to help you to that end. - wolf 02:24, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: - Funny, you delete my response, and then respond to it, condescendingly, and then try to mentor me in the policies and guidelines on communicating properly and politely. I’m not offended by any stretch. I just don’t tolerate BS. You patronize, but do so while hiding behind your admin status. If you need to take away my privilege because I’m hurting your ego, go for it. No worries mate. I won’t lose sleep. You can delete this one too.— Preceding unsigned comment added by User60314 (talk • contribs) 22:50, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@User60314 I haven't deleted any of your posts and I'm not hiding behind any admin status, as I'm not an admin. I've pointed out some minor technical issues with your edits, and disagreed with the content of one, yet you are filling up this talk page with increasingly paranoid and 'come-at-me-bro!' type comments which are accomplishing nothing. Like I said, discuss content, not editors. In short, get over it and move on. - wolf 05:15, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: - I could say the same for you. I said "thanks for your input..." and called you "pup" because your name is wolf child. I did not know that was a personal attack, or that it would offend you so easily, but I guess that's what you meant when you said we seem to have different degrees of sensitivity. Then I followed with "what needless space are you referring to" so that I could correct it. You then responded with attitude and you got the same in return. Feel free to remove all of these "paranoid and 'come-at-me-bro!'" comments and let it go. I will be glad to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by User60314 (talk • contribs) 11:51, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

User60314: "You then responded with attitude and you got the same in return" ...and that's the problem right there. Don't perceive every comment as: "I disagree with your changes, because I think you're a jerk!". IOW, just because someone disagrees with your edits, don't take it personally. I stated my issue with your edits, not you, which is what the article talk pages are for; to discuss content. You seem to be taking everything here personally, and then you "respond in kind", like this nonsense with my username. And as such, that article talk page becomes filled with off-topic pagefill. (And why I have since moved all off topic posts here). Just stick to the content, sources and guidelines, and leave the attitude (real or perceived) out of it. - wolf 20:33, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: - I would've thought that "adding needless spacing to infobox(es)" was fairly clear. - This is not disagreeing with an edit, this is a condescending answer to a misperceived "personal attack" to which you took offense. I don't know what infobox you were referring to which is why I asked. You then got touchy. This was not my misperception, it was yours. I will gladly stick to the content and sources. Leave your attitude out and we'll have no further issues. Thank you. User60314 (talk)User60314 — Preceding unsigned comment added by User60314 (talk • contribs) 16:46, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Hmm... if only the record supported your revisionist accounting but it doesn't. My first post was inoffensive, yet you took offense anyway and decided to give same. No matter how much you try to endlessly debate this, those facts will not change. Now, I don't really have anything else to add, and this is your talk page, so if you really feel you must have the last word, you go right ahead. Just don't bother pinging me, there's no need. - wolf 23:02, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: - Revisionist? It was right there in the “records” that your feelings got hurt over calling you “pup” instead of wolf child. It’s not about a last word, it’s about you still running circles around your pissy attitude. I can’t help your feelings got hurt and you can’t accept that. You’ve tried all you can and it’s more humorous that you kept trying. Then when you realized you got nothing, you throw out the “if you need the last word” routine. If you didn’t care so much you would have quit long ago. Nice try. User60314 (talk)User60314

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. - wolf 23:06, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Question

Typically, when an edit you've made is reverted, you should go to the talk page and discuss it, as opposed to just re-reverting it back in. This cuts down on the "I'm right, you're wrong cuz I said so!" type disputes that lead to edit wars. Is there some reason why you feel this practice doesn't apply to you? - wolf 16:37, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Yes sir! User60314 (talk) 01:23, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

That... doesn't even make sense. But hey, it's better than your usual "you're just butthurt cuz I said you butt hurts!' type of replies.
But hey, I have one more question and who knows, maybe you'll actually answer;
Is there some reason why you so quickly removed that Conflict of Interest notice off your page? (Not that it makes a difference, if you delete something from your talk page, you are deemed to have read it.) Perhaps you invest all this time and energy because you're an AF fan, which is cool. Or perhaps you served, or are serving, which is also cool. But if that's the case, why hide it? Most guys with service are proud enough of it to say so. Anyways... just curious. Have a nice day - wolf 03:01, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild:, you bet. I'm not the one who got butt hurt there buddy. You cried because I called you pup. Anyways, I digress. I deleted it because, like everything else you try to point out. They're useless attempts to assert your dominance, which you vehemently deny, and frankly I don't care to keep entertaining it. You seem to be very attached to the infantry, so I could safely assume you have a conflict of interest. Go read your own "here's your new discrepancy" info and don't assume I have one just because, like I said, I received an attitude and responded in kind. Oh, and if you needed a refresher, the "records" are still located on my talk page that show you got defensive and winey right after I called you "pup". Remember? The one you deleted because it hurt your feelings. Sorry, get off my, for lack of a better term, case. Thanks. User60314 (talk) 04:38, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

...aaannd we're back to "You're just cryin' cuz I called you a crybaby, which made you cry! The proof is like right here duude!" Oy.
But, of course you are correct. While I have been irredeemably rude (and "dominating"...?), you have been an exemplar of maturity and reason./s Yep, thank goodness that all posts are permanently saved. But that said, we're obviously not going to accomplish anything here, so I will "get off your case". Have a nice day - wolf 05:34, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

@Thewolfchild: I never would have had any issue with you had you just answered my initial question without your BS attitude. Call it what you will, but your an egotistical cry baby. I’m glad the comments are still here because you’re teetering on harassment. It’s pathetic that you keep trying. Yes, please do stay off my case. Thanks again. User60314 (talk)

To be clear; yes we agree this discussion has run it's course, there is no further need for me to respond to it, neither you or I want that. But I will again ask that you stop pinging me with your "final posts". Persistent pinging is a form of harassment, so please stop. No more posts here from me, and no more pinging me here from you. Thank you. - wolf 06:41, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Then stop talking to me. It’s that simple. If you agree the conversation has run its course there should have been no need for a response, yet you keep on. That’s enough. Thank you. User60314 (talk)
