Wikipedia has WP:RULES which govern how editors should edit, how should they behave and how conflict gets mediated. Everybody is entitled to occasional mistakes, but persisting in mistakes will get you blocked from editing. Our wish is, however, that WP:RULES breakers repent from violating our rules and become instead productive editors. The decision to obey our rules is always personal, but it has enormous consequences for one's activity inside Wikipedia. I cannot decide for you, but I can tell you that it is wise to obey our rules. So, it's not that I like to see you blocked. I would like that you learn from your mistakes and become a productive editor. But if you are not up to the task, you will be blocked. I cannot ban you, in fact there is a single editor able to ban you from Wikipedia, that editor is you. The key point about getting to read about our rules is changing your behavior. We want you to behave according to the rules of our encyclopedia, if you cannot behave you will be blocked or banned.

I only revert edits for which it is clear to me that they are WP:CB (speaking from the viewpoint of academic learning), deteriorate the article or violate WP:RULES. I don't revert if these are uncertain. I think that you need to make up your mind if you are for or against our WP:RULES. If you're against our rules and act on that, you'll soon find yourself in hot water. If your edits are WP:PAG-compliant, they will likely stay, otherwise every experienced editor will have to revert you. By saying this I am not aggressive, I just tell it as it is. (Dutchies don't beat around the bush, but bluntly tell you what's wrong.) I'm blunt but not mean. I could appear mean, but in fact I am only defending the norms and values of this website. I am very hard with bigots, but reasonable and conciliatory with reasonable people. With people which present themselves as reasonable, I am much more conciliatory than other experienced users.

I don't hate editors as persons; I hate rule-breaking. I consider that any editor can change his/her mind/behavior at any moment. Few edit warriors do that, but that's another matter. As long as you know when to stop, you can get away with almost anything at Wikipedia. It's not the mistake which is a matter of being blocked or banned, but persisting in that mistake. Exceptions: outing and legal threats.

I'm not absurd: if you give me WP:RS showing that you're right, I will write myself from your POV.

A kitten for you!

Jesus loves you!

Jesus loves you

Hey, I just want to let you know Jesus loves you, but I don't agree with anything you said. The Wikipedia policies are flawed and flexible, as shown in the five pillars. And just because one Christian says one thing about following hard on the policies, doesn't mean I do either.

Highbrow isn't very persuasive to commonfolk, whom 95% of the world belong to, so the academia doesn't sway me either. I forgive you. John1427 (talk) 20:40, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

@John1427: WP:NOTDEMOCRACY. And certainly WP:NOTTHEOCRACY. Tgeorgescu (talk) 22:07, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Head Honcho

Dear Tgeorgescu, What are the requirements and qualifications for becoming a head honcho on Wikipedia? Having some knowledge of human behavior I suspect there are likely male individuals who attempt to become head honchos here because they desire personal glory and are control freaks. I would like to know your thoughts about this intriguing puzzle. Have there been complaints about such screwballs? Disciplinary action taken? In what form? Often? Please reply soon, Miistermagico Miistermagico (talk) 10:36, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

@Miistermagico: One cannot run such website without enforcing WP:RULES. Admins are not bosses over content, but over behavior, see WP:BURO. But, yes, there are policies and content guidelines which have to be obeyed by every editor. Tgeorgescu (talk) 10:50, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Dear Tgeorgescu, Thank you for your quick, kind and very informative reply. Miistermagico (talk) 14:34, 24 January 2019 (UTC)

Church patriarchs

Forgive me if it is inappropriate to come to you directly with this: the initial act of vandalism on this page was to move it from "Church Fathers," presumably based on the religious motivations of the other recent vandalism. Could you please move it back? I would do it myself, but I am not yet auto-confirmed. Thank you. anthologetes ^{(talk • contribs)} 05:01, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

I offended a vandal on the page of CSM Bucharest, look: did you see what he do? Regarding O-Zone, they are relocated to Bucharest, all the Moldovans who were promoted by Romania have citizenships. This is hilarous! I got along with the Hungarian users very well, I never disagreed on objective opinions. Christina (talk) 12:05, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

@Cristina neagu: I don't know much about sports. Anyway, I think that you should refrain from stirring trouble and avoid edits which could be seen as WP:PROMO. Tgeorgescu (talk) 12:09, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Yes, yes, my main area is not Eastern Europe but handball (women's handball more). East European clubs are stronger now there. I didn't disagree with the Danish user when he removed promo. But it was as promo as writing on Cristiano Ronaldo, Barcelona, Real Madrid and others were. CSM Bucharest and Gyor are the best clubs in Champions League, I explained very well to Clotilde but she disagreed. And I didn't insist anymore. Christina (talk) 12:12, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Da, imi pare rau ca am jignit acolo. Pe Wikipedia trebuie sa fim oameni totusi. A vandalizat mai multe pagini si face ca nici nu poti sa ii dai revert. Nu doar ca schimba echipele ca si cum ar arata in sezonul urmator, dar si adauga jucatori din burta. Si atunci m-am enervat. Christina (talk) 12:30, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Honest Servants

@Tgeorgescu. I respected your decision as Jesus respected the decision of the honorable Jewish Elders and the powerful Roman leader to crucify Him. After all, you are honest in serving those who give you the privilege to judge what could be said, or not, about the Gospel, mainly about Jesus sayings (though before hearing anything from me about them on the "Gospel" talk page). So your reaction may simply be a clear sign from Heaven to tell me that Wikipedia, you serve, is about anything but exploring the solid truths revealed by Jesus; a taboo even on the “Gospel” page. Anyway, I wish you the best while I appreciate your honesty. KerimF (talk) 16:47, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

@KerimF: We only render the views of WP:RS, not random musings about the gospels, see WP:NOTFORUM. Tgeorgescu (talk) 01:55, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello

Do you consider retracting the reclamation as a good Romanian and a gesture of good will? I really don't have bad intentions on Wikipedia as you see. I would have preferred for instance to talk on email about what's bothering you (to be more specified), Mr Georgescu! Because you are also Romanian like me or I am Romanian like you. I could have explained my point of view and even accept anything maybe. And of course, to respect the rules. Every of your reports are bad on my CV, I am sure your past is also not 100% according to the rules. Christina (talk) 17:01, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

@Cristina neagu: Well, I have nothing personal against you. Abide by the WP:RULES, don't perform WP:TE and I won't complain about you. Tgeorgescu (talk) 17:04, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

You would make a great gesture of humanity if you would retract your reclamation. Do you still want to retract the complaint? Just be a man! You can still help me if you want to do it. I am getting condemned harshly. Christina (talk) 19:49, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

@Cristina neagu: I think that you have been offered a chance to go with only a formal warning, but you have forfeited such chance. You do a pretty good job at... condemning yourself. Also, please mind that TBANs and blocks are not being punitive (i.e. penalties), these are only applied in order to prevent further harm to the encyclopedia.
