Red Links
Please do not remove links to pages that reasonably might be created later. That's the whole idea behind a wiki&mdash;that it can be expanded by others. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 16:45, 17 November 2020 (UTC)


 * So if a page exists, for the actual thing under a name for which it is referred to (brimstone=sulfur, sulfur=brimstone), then it's preferable to ignore the already existing page that it could be linked to, and instead have a red link directing to a page that may or may not be created (and if it did it would be directing to the same information cause it's essentially the same thing and used interchangeably)? And that earns me a block, seriously?Marvelous25 (talk) 16:51, 17 November 2020 (UTC)


 * The block was to save you (and us) unnecessary effort and to get your attention. It has been rescinded. In the future, please use the Talk page to discuss questions or disagreements on the content of a page.
 * The brimstone page was a redirect to an individual dragon with Brimstone as a nickname (which was inappropriate for the scent of brimstone) and that has now been corrected to redirect to "sulfur". I believe Artyom.pavlov plans to make articles for both ham and sulfur, so that's why he reverted your edits. Can we consider this matter closed? &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 17:20, 17 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Would it not have been easier to stick that on my talk page in the first page, rather than blocking me and talking down to me by telling me about 'the whole idea behind a wiki'?Marvelous25 (talk) 17:58, 17 November 2020 (UTC)


 * To clarify, I was the one who blocked you, not Moviesign. We each acted separately and without communication. He immediately did come to leave a comment first.


 * I chose to block you, only temporarily, as he said, to save you from starting an edit-war, because it was, in fact, "easier", as you said, to block you first, just in case you started making other edits. The fact was that you undid an edit by a long-time user after he had corrected one of your edits. That is something that admins like Moviesign and I tend to notice. I had also earlier seen that you had made several other edits that were incorrect, and my plan was to block you, out of caution, then go write you a note, but Movie beat me to the note.


 * Please do not imagine a condesending tone in either Movie's or my responses. We have to deal with numerous vandals and policy-ignoring new editors every day, so we have to be careful. You have several valid edits also, and it is good to have new folk around. If you stick around long enough, I think that you will find most of us to be a friendly bunch. In truth, the block was not meant to offend you in any way whatsoever, only to make you pause. You did, and you responded, and that is great. Thanks for that!


 * Happy editing.

 * I didn't read all of that, but thanks for deciding for me how I should interpret what's said to me. Dont worry I've already been alienated by and come across enough nitpicking on this wiki and won't be bothering to edit any more on here.Marvelous25 (talk) 20:00, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
