Rude, abusive, or policy-abusing admins are one reason the total number of active editors is steadily declining. See en:User:Timeshifter/More articles and less editors

File:Parque de la Memoria - Buenos Aires - Dennis Oppenheim - Monumento al escape.jpg A statue, Monument to the Escape, by Dennis Oppenheim in Memory Park in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was dedicated in October 2006. It is a memorial to the victims of the military regime during the Argentine Dirty War, a period of Argentinian state-sponsored violence, disappearances, murder, and torture from 1976 to 1983.

Please note: Here follows an introduction similar to the one that I use on my wikipedia user talk page: To keep the discussion in one thread some comments added here are moved to the user talk page of the author. I reply there. I also watchlist that talk page for awhile in order to note when the user there replies. Harassing comments are also sometimes moved off this talk page. As are inappropriately-applied warning templates, etc.. Sometimes the original author is offended by their own harassing comments, and my reply, on their user talk page. They then remove both from their talk page. I guess the light from their own verbal reflection offends them. One can find removed comments by using the history link on a talk page. Users are allowed to remove anything from their talk pages. See en:WP:TALK and other wikipedia and wikimedia guidelines/policies. Sometimes I remove stuff from my talk page for no particular reason, or for many varied reasons. Removal of comments from my talk page implies nothing. Don't take it personally. Unless I have requested otherwise feel free to leave new messages on my talk page. --Timeshifter

Category:'Occupy' protests

 

Category discussion notification CAT

Category:'Occupy' protests has been listed at Commons:Categories for discussion so that the community can discuss ways in which it should be changed. We would appreciate it if you could go to voice your opinion about this at its entry. If you created this category, please note that the fact that it has been proposed for discussion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with it. If the category is up for deletion because it has been superseded, consider the notion that although the category may be deleted, your hard work (which we all greatly appreciate) lives on in the new category. In all cases, please do not take the category discussion personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you!
