Bang your head against a brick wall much? AdenJ 23:40, 23 May 2008 (EDT)
- Only when I'm very frustrated, as it involves me having to exit my house. In cases such as these the wood of my desk tends to be enough. StatsMsn 00:09, 24 May 2008 (EDT)
You should do what I did - I built a hand held brickwall that I keep by my desk. Its good to as I can carry around when I go to my parents house, order pizza, rent dvd's or have to call the tax department. AdenJ 01:05, 24 May 2008 (EDT)
Your edit summary
You wrote an insulting edit summary:
- you would know if you've actually read the book
Please review Conservapedia:Avoid personal remarks and try again on Al Franken. By the way, it's better not to use words like "rebut" or "refute" in a way that implies that a liberal is correct and a conservative is wrong, when the matter is in dispute. Maybe Wikipedia would allow that, but not us. Why not say "disagree" or "argue" instead? --Ed Poor Talk 07:03, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
- Because rather than just disagreeing he cites a number of sources and uses relevant arguments to make a point (one example, refuting claims that Clinton neglected the intelligence community by showing funding increases during the Clinton era etc). I'm sure it is rare, but occasionally a liberal is correct and a conservative wrong, and in these cases it is a refutation. As for personal attacks I did not intend to attack another author, I wanted to state that it seemed odd that an edit contrary to a significant portion of the material presented in the book was made if the editor had read it, and was wondering if the editor had in fact done this. I admit I could have worded it better. Have you read it? If you put politics aside it can be quite funny in some sections. StatsMsn 07:11, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
This is not an apology, but a repetition and justification of the mistake. Acknowledge your error and submit a writing plan, or you can't stay here. --Ed Poor Talk 08:46, 2 June 2008 (EDT)
- Since neither you nor Learn Together requested an apology I saw no reason to submit one, although I did clearly state: I admit I could have worded it better. Nonetheless, to satisfy your desires:
- I sincerely apologise to Learn Together for any temporary or permanent harm that he has suffered as a result of me suggesting he had not read Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them by Al Franken.
- If there is another error I have missed then please bring it to my attention so I can address it.
- With respect to the writing plan, I intend to do the following:
- edit articles where I have knowledge of the subject matter
- create articles which have not previously existed where I have knowledge of the subject matter
- correct mistakes where I believe I have sufficient knowledge to make a correct judgment
- engage other editors on discussion pages with respect to the material on the article
- Please let me know if there is anything else I can submit to appease you and the site in general. StatsMsn 06:39, 6 June 2008 (EDT)
