chance that your actions are going to get reverted at some point. I may not wait for your stamp of approval before taking an action. Do not fret, my revert is not the same as me holding a huge sign in I-5 saying "X is stoopid and I've reverted thur stoopidness". You probably had a good reason to do what you did. I have no doubt what you did was with the best of intentions. But if I've reverted you then it is likely because I have a very good best of intentions reason too and you should try to see my point of view as I have undoubtedly considered yours.
125:. If you want to leave me a polite message after the fact, it's appreciated. If I feel strongly about the issue, which I doubt I will, then I will leave a message on your talk page expressing my opinion. Whether or not the issue is restored to my preference, I am unlikely to engage further than that. Simple, I am disinterested in the drama involved. I also don't feel a need to prove I'm right. Folks actions will speak for themselves and I feel that if I am right then given patience I will be proven right. You can apologize later. 31: 207:
those who have slighted me. I may even stick around and continue editing. It'd actually take quite a bit more than a recall to shame me into hiding. Please be sure to read my recall criteria closely though. If you do it wrong and I do not comply, it's not a 'pride' issue, it's a 'you can't follow

deletions. CSD is meant to be for non-controversial deletions only. If you disagree with a deletion, than it becomes controversial and no longer qualifies for CSD. I won't be upset. In fact, don't even bother notifying me unless I fuber'd the criteria. I very rarely delete based on tagging alone

against me that you chose. It will not hurt my pride or ego at all. I've got thick skin. I can take whatever you can dish out. Do keep in mind though that I'm not obligated to do nothing. I will report personal attacks to the admin noticeboards and you will find yourself dealing with a block.

I take very little personal interest in the actions I take. I try my best not to get involved in areas of Knowledge (XXG) that I might take a stake in. What this means is that I am not going to get upset if my actions are reverted because I don't particularly care enough. I'm here to improve the

If I blocked a user for any reason and you feel it was an unfair block, I'd appreciate that you at least tell me why so I can decide whether I need to adjust my blocking habits or not. Keep in mind though that I'll hold you accountable. Not that it's a deterrent, just that I likely blocked for a

My pride should not get in the way of constructive editing. There is no reason to hold up any kind of action to wait for me to give my blessing. I am not going to be butthurt if you revert me, undo me, or just feel I'm wrong. My ego is pretty damn big and there isn't anything you can do that'll

As I hold myself to these standards, I generally hold others to similar standards. Do not let your pride get in the way of building the encyclopedia. Unless you plan to become available twenty four hours a day seven days a week for the conceivable future of the project, there is going to be a

I don't pretend to be an expert in anything; least of all the things I am an expert in. I accept as fact that learning happens all the time. I'm a horrible writer, an even worse speller, and I frequently get writer's block or a brain fart. Most of my editing comes directly from

and will generally read an article and determine the proper CSD criteria myself. However, if I got lazy and deleted something inappropriately then I'm not going to freak out when you correct my mistake. In fact, I should thank you for saving me the trouble.

and I don't really have any control of it once I hit the "Save page" button. If you don't like what I wrote in an article or feel my article should be deleted, go ahead. I am not going to start some blood feud over some edits. Do what you have to do.
166: 142:
If I deleted an article in an AFD with three or fewer !voters and someone has asked that it be restored, then feel free. I am likely to userfy these kinds of articles upon request without much opposition. Also feel free to revert

And then I'll sleep comfy and cozy tonight in my bed having given zero thought to your anger management issues and you'll continue to fume under your covers and lose countless hours of sleep over the insult and subsequent

The admin actions I take are with the best of intentions. If you feel they are wrong, feel free to revert them. I'm not going to make a fuss, I'm not going to cause drama, and I'm not going to run off to
