Hello, I'm Tutelary. I noticed that you made a comment on the page User talk:TheRedPenOfDoom that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Tutelary (talk) 14:36, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia

Hello, you are free to start your own web page where you can collect and make your own parodies of Purple Cow, but Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and we are here to collect what other sources have published about various subjects and present it in an encyclopedic manner; and not merely post a bunch of stuff that we have written that we think is funny. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 14:55, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
