editHello 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:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) 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. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 12:05, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
Looking for more opinions
editI had to remove this post of yours as it was not relevant to the topic of the article (Reliability of Wikipedia is meant to be an encyclopedic article, it is not a projectspace or helpspace article and its talk page is only intended for discussing the improvement of the Reliability... article itself).
If you're looking for a place where to find more editors' opinions, then you can pick one from here: Wikipedia:Noticeboards. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 12:09, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for this and the sig reminder. Sorry, I'm new.
- You need to sign on your own talk page too. :p — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 15:01, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Second Dark, you are invited on a Wikipedia Adventure!
editHi Second Dark!! You're invited: learn how to edit Wikipedia in under an hour. I hope to see you there! Ocaasi |
The uninvolved consensus of the AFD
editIf you're interested in hearing opinions other than mine from higher level wikipedians on the topic of Cultural Marxism (I know you're probably sick of hearing from me at this point), you should consider reading through the judgement by the 3 panel of WP:UNINVOLVED admins who closed the AFD on the previous article, which can be found via the AFD's talk page. This will also give you some idea (that's for once not coming from me) of what admins pay attention to when resolving disputes. Good luck and good faith! I wish you no malice in your endeavour and I hope you continue to try to improve Wikipedia. --Jobrot (talk) 04:13, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

editPlease do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Frankfurt School. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Dave Dial (talk) 22:34, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
- If you're referring to when you called me a "fringe sock" and encouraged Jobrot not to work with me, I removed it because it was uncalled for name-calling that did not have anything to do with the article. I gave this explanation when I undid it. If you think I removed anything else, I didn't.
- I'd be happy to work and debate with you to make the article better and am also willing to undergo any administration investigations for vandalism or sock-puppet accounts.Second Dark (talk) 01:23, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or change other editors' legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:Frankfurt School. Dave Dial (talk) 04:09, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
- If you do indeed think I'm a sock, feel very, very free to report it to the administrators.
It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you.

Edit warring
edit You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Talk:Frankfurt School. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.

.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 10:21, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
