| - | Bart, try reading some policies. [[WP:LEAD]] '''clearly''' states "The lead section should briefly summarize the most important points covered in an article in such a way that it can stand on its own as a concise version of the article." Seeing as how it went through a good article review that noted that the introduction was good, it should remain there. Also, you have already twice broken your promise not to touch other's talk page edits for ''any'' reason, and I have brought it up [[User_talk:LessHeard_vanU#WP:AN_.2F_BV|here]] with another administrator to discuss the appropriate course of action. Cheers, [[User:Canadian Paul|CP]] 19:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | :No: it's not forbidden for me to edit talk pages, especially not titles, since I'm not correcting their mistakes. [[User:Bart Versieck|Extremely sexy]] ([[User talk:Bart Versieck#top|talk]]) 19:22, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
| + | |
| - | ::You weren't to touch anyone else's edits on talk pages, period. Most other people have more leniency, because they do not have such a long history of disruption. Besides, if I had thought you were certainly in violation, I would have just blocked you instead of bringing it up with other admins first. Cheers, [[User:Canadian Paul|CP]] 19:29, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

| - | ::::::::Per my comments at [[User_talk:LessHeard_vanU#WP:AN_.2F_BV|my talkpage]] in response of the above, it is just easier if you didn't. Stay away from ''anything'' that looks like it may appear to be in violation of the terms of the unblock, and if you make a mistake and someone thinks that you are in violation - then don't argue with them, and don't do it again. '''''If''''' you still think you weren't doing anything wrong, then contact me and I will review and if I think you were right ''I'' will take it up with the other editor on your behalf. As Xenocidic says, "correcting" other people may be permitted for a contributor of good standing - and the best way of you becoming that contributor is to not do it at present. The best way of utilising your copy edit inclinations is to do it in article space, where it is beneficial and permissable - but PLEASE not in talk space.

| - | Well, of course I was going to be watching your talkpage. If you needed to have changed the time/date you should have asked the editor concerned to clarify it, or asked someone else to place a comment, such as <nowiki><small></nowiki><small> (original comment placed at ''XX:XX'' on ''YYY'' and later signed as here.) </small><nowiki></small></nowiki>, under it. Please just sit out this block, BV, so you will remember better what it is that you must not do.

| - | Bart, there is no need to pipe [[World War II]] into [[World War II|the Second World War]] when "World War II" is the title of the article. It's a complete waste. Furthermore, trying to sneak it back in without explanation after I reverted it is not good faith and certainly not conducive to the spirit of Wikipedia discussion and [[WP:CONSENSUS|consensus]]. Finally, it is ''extremely'' misleading and disingenuous to provide an automatic edit summary of "reverting edit blah blah blah", then perform a whole bunch of editing that is completely unrelated within the same edit (unless you also add in the edit summary that you are doing it). Your entire editing behavior, not just your actions on talk pages, are being watched, and shenanigans such as these are not very conducive to promoting your good faith contributions to this encyclopedia after so many warnings.
