2016 New England Patriots season

Hey man, you need to be careful about using non-neutral language in the Patriots article you've been editing. You said the Pats' 41–0 lead against the Jets was laughable, which it may have been to Patriots fans, but that's a subjective opinion and Wikipedia has strict rules about making sure we maintain a neutral tone. Check out WP:NPOV for more info. – PeeJay 18:16, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

Can I also ask why you insist on saying things like "their own- 43"? There's no need for a hyphen there, at any time, so please stop adding one. – PeeJay 11:28, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Well, what you "feel like" doing is both irrelevant and makes for a worse encyclopaedia. I tried to be nice about this, but now I'm not, so just stop it or I'll report you for making personal attacks. – PeeJay 19:20, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

It's bad grammar, and bad grammar makes the page look bad. – PeeJay 20:56, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

What other pages do is irrelevant. A wrong thing is still wrong no matter how many people think it's right. – PeeJay 21:43, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Cool, thanks. Also, you don't need to create a new section every time you leave a message on someone's talk page, especially if you're just going to title the section with gibberish. Just leave the message in the same section as the initial one. – PeeJay 14:36, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
