Edits[edit]

  • In reducing the entry for me on this wiki page, I posted the following edit summary: "I do not authorize anything beyond strict description of my activities. I will delete anything else, including an evaluation, that is posted about me." I am entirely serious about this. I neither want nor will accept anything beyond the most minimal, factual description of me on this wiki page, with no evaluations or categorizations of any kind. I am asking that you do me the courtesy of respecting this choice. ~ Steve (Greybird) Reed, 20 April 2007, greybird007 {at} gmail {dot} com
    • THE ... BUSINESS! IT'S ... TOO ... SERIOUS!!! I love how you talk about your "authorization" as though it actually means anything. Clue time. - Great Uncle Radomil 15:38, 26 August 2007 (EDT)
      • First, you'd do well to find out what the concept of "courtesy" entails. Second, you might look into why Wikipedia is prudent enough to not (normally) allow pages to be made about living persons who aren't public or historical figures. Third, would you really like the DariaWiki to be subject to Seigenthaler's Rule? ... I didn't think so. And, finally, at least I attach my return address (however indirect) to my bricks when I throw them. - Greybird 06:23, 9 September 2007 (EDT)
    • Considered and disregarded. DariaWiki is dictated by the facts, not the whims of its users. If the posted information is factual, relevant and does not constitute a personal attack, it is valid. I've restored it, in part, to what it was prior to being dumbed down. - Cyde 23:43, 28 February 2008 (EST)
      • I'd say that the operative word in the preceding entry is "disregard." As to more than just editorial standards, from where I sit. That being the case, and knowing in the Locutus sense that "resistance is futile," I have elaborated accurately on what is insisted upon being included here as to my views. With that having been added, I also removed the "stub" template. - Greybird 22:19, 16 March 2008 (EDT)

Vandalism Risk[edit]

  • I am watchlisting this entry as it presents a significant vandalism risk. Remember, edit warring will not be tolerated. - Cyde 23:13, 28 February 2008 (EST)
    • The questions "Risk? By whom?" come to mind. I have, as noted, left the two major Darian message boards, and dropped any active role in this fandom. I returned here only long enough to provide an accurate statement of my views. I would hope that my doing this is not considered to be "vandalism." - Greybird 22:19, 16 March 2008 (EDT)
