Thanks for experimenting with Wikiquote. Your test worked, and has now been reverted or removed. Please use Wikiquote:Sandbox for any other tests you want to do, since testing in articles will normally be reverted quickly. Please see the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our compendium of quotations. For a quick overview of what Wikiquote is, read Wikiquote:Wikiquote, and also What Wikiquote is not for a list of common activities that Wikiquote does not support. ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 06:03, 2 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Re: Emacs

[edit]

I'm sorry, but are you on crack? You refer to my cleanup of the emacs article as a test and experiment, then say it's been reverted and tell me to leave articles alone and mess with the sandbox. Did you get high prior to doing so? Not only did you in the end not revert the article, but my contributions were positive ones which conformed to the regulations of this site. 65.95.228.253 06:34, 4 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Hi. First of all, allow me to ask you to take a less controversial tone. The article was vandalised several times by people who thought leaving just one quote from "vi" was a good idea, and sending you the "test" message was probably a mistake. There is a reason for assume good faith, and this is it :)
More to the point, the article is pretty much a mess, and in no version thereof actually conformed to the regulations of the site, strictly speaking. It has quotes by people with no established notability, it does not conform to the standard theme-page formatting. To make a note of all these issues, I've added a "cleanup" notice, which will hopefully cause some improvement. Thanks ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 07:11, 4 October 2005 (UTC)Reply
