User talk:107.195.20.170

Please read WP:NPA

Insulting other people on Wikipedia is never appropriate, not even if the other person is a blocked editor who has created hoax articles. See also WP:OUTING; even if you have personal information about another editor (where would you have gotten it?), you should not publish it on Wikipedia unless they did so themselves first. It doesn't matter whether they're an old man or a young girl; we judge them by the quality of their edits alone. Misrepresenting their age or gender is irrelevant to Wikipedia.

@Huon: Can you show me a user or two who came on here with this kind of behavior and actually ended up making good contributions? You contribute a lot of good things on here. I wish you wouldn't let people like this bait you into wasting your time dealing with them, costing WP whatever good stuff you didn't have the time to do. 107.195.20.170 (talk) 18:01, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How I spend my time is no concern of yours and is not a reason to insult them. And yes, there are some "reformed vandals". Huon (talk) 22:49, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Huon: The reason I asked is because I honestly want to see how Wikipedia, in your words, reforms vandals. What has to happen to accomplish something that I don't think can happen and you're telling me that, no, it's possible? I bet you didn't consider that your response was a passive-aggressive admission of error, but it does. If I'm wrong, show me. If not, well, then I agree with you that vandals aren't redeemable. 107.195.20.170 (talk) 00:06, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

See for example Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:User Reformed Vandal. And those are just the ones who make use of a specific template to publicly announce that they once were vandals. Huon (talk) 12:20, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

Could you please tone down your edit summaries and restrict them to a summary of your edits which they are supposed to be. This is supposed to be a serious project. Thanks. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:54, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit to Man That You Fear

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you removed some content from Man That You Fear without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Create new pages and rename pages
Edit semi-protected pages
Upload images
Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (107.195.20.170) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Happy editing! ^Semi_Hypercube ✎ 20:05, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
