=What kind of logic is that=
I find amazingly unintelligent. --Amir :I quote myself: That depends on the content of the articles. If it has been shown to be valid in other materials, it will stay. It is still possible to add valid information into articles without removing information that is already there, and this is preferred. If material can be proven to be incorrect, it will be removed. That is one of the reasons we have talk pages. -- 00:17, 2004 Aug 16 (UTC)

Excuse me, , I need your help.
The , as one may find in what links here on that page, is often used in greetings to newbies. I have been stocking easy to handle tasks , mixed in with some challenging ones, for the newbies. Would you mind helping out a bit, please I can t keep up with your rapid clearing. (If you clear pucks just as quickly, I want you on my blueline !)
Good call on the copyvio (Steve R. Nagel), but I usually let a few different wikipedians take a stab at fixing an item, or let it sit unattended for a few days (indicating a lack of interest) before replacing it. Sometimes, the items you removed from the Copyedit line are not that well copyedited after just one or two edits .... And freshly created items are often stubs, so they may be better moved down the template, instead of out. (And I lose track of things when items come and go without being logged in the Edit summary. But I won t be checking much the next little while, so never mind ...)
I am supposed to be taking my Wikivacation. And I feel uneasy about leaving the Opentask template unattended. A barren Template:Opentask is not going to be useful, either as part of a greeting or part of the Community Portal .
This is all I ask: Please slow down your clearing, and if possible, please replenish when removing items from the template. (I usually find them at Cleanup and Deadend Pages .)
Many thanks.

Good evening, Grunt. I read your comments on VfD about the use of the insanity templates. Unfortunately, the intention that the templates were not meant to insult has not proven out in practice. I can remember at least one case where the template was added with intent to insult and countless cases where, regardless of intent, others took it as insult. I m struggling to see your point of view and to see some redeeming value to the templates. Instead, all I see is a threat to the 21:18, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I myself got it only in the lower half of the text (may be I am slow... but then, may are, especially those who wage word wars). If a person is smart enough to understand a joke, he most probably doesn t need blocking.
