Numb3rs merge[edit]
Could you elaborate some more about your comment? I'm not sure I understand. Basically, my thought was that the list of characters was mostly redundant to information in the main article. 70.22.154.184 (talk) 19:52, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
I'm not understanding your post on my talk page. Do you favor a merge or no? 70.22.154.184 (talk) 19:16, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
September 2008[edit]
This is your only warning.
The next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced defamatory content into an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did to Wasilla Assembly of God, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Specifically, you reverted text calling Muthee a witch hunter and persecutor, when this editor has already pointed out the BLP nature of these edits. Jclemens (talk) 16:05, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
- May I refer you to a quote from your talk page :: "I don't object to being overruled, since it seems like my interpretation of consensus may not be universal". -- Simon Cursitor (talk) 07:58, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- That was uttered in the context of a Good Article review. WP:BLP is a non-negotiable policy. Would you find it helpful for me to explain the difference between the two? Jclemens (talk) 12:16, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
- Not really, sicne you have already decided to ban me from Wiki. -- Simon Cursitor (talk) 07:27, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Profanity in articles versus profanity on Talk pages[edit]
Hi, Simon, it's me, Aexus from the Eve Online article and its Talk page. I understand that you'd prefer the profanity on the article's Talk page removed. You are correct in that there's no need to write something that can be considered "offensive, profane, or obscene by typical Wikipedia readers" as WP:PROFANE puts it. The profanity guideline, however, covers only articles and explicitly not Talk pages. There have been similar discussions about whether or not profanity on Talk pages is a violation. For example on the WP:PROFANE Talk page editors have asked about that in January and May of 2007. The concensus is that Talk pages are governed by WP:CIVILITY and not by WP:PROFANE. While discussing an ungulate's testicles in an article would likely violate a guideline, doing so on a Talk page is fine as long as editors keep the civility guideline in mind and for example do not attack each other personally.
It's your personal preference to keep the Eve Online Talk page without the sentence in question. Since I've written it, I can delete it if I see fit. I've done just that. Next time you feel the need to delete profanity from a Talk page that doesn't violate the civility guideline, consider posting on the respective editor's Talk page first. They may disagree with you but they may very well agree. I do think that you achieve more the more you commnunicate.

Page remaining in your user space[edit]
You have a page at User:Simoncursitor/TMM which has not been touched in years, and appears to now qualify as a WP:FAKEARTICLE; could you please delete it, per guidelines? --Nat Gertler (talk) 18:23, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Peter Wray[edit]
Hi, I was hoping you'd take a look at the Peter Wray article and let me know what you think. It's pretty ridiculous right now. It absolutely reads like advertisement for him (how many times do we need to call him unique when we're trying to maintain NPOV?) and someone is reverting now only fixes but anything negative said about his recent activities.Hexrei2 (talk) 21:00, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- This is, frankly, nothing to do with me :: certainly I claim no expertise that would entitle me to edit the article, or to comment on other editors' work. -- Simon Cursitor (talk)
