Please don't vandalise pages like you did with the [[MapleStory/Monsters]] page. If you want to try out the system and Wikimarkup, please use the [[StrategyWiki:Sandbox|sandbox]]. --[[User:IsaacGS|IsaacGS]] 23:00, 20 June 2007 (CDT)

:The reason IsaacGS and I (among a few others) are really getting on your case for this is because you don't back up any of your claims. The [[MapleStory]] article and sub-pages (especially [[MapleStory/Monsters]]) have gotten more than their fair share of vandalism in the past. Therefore, we are naturally skeptical of any unsourced statements or additions made to the page that cannot be easily verified. If you found a reliable (key word being reliable) source, put the URL in the edit summary so one of us can check it and make sure that it is accurate. Also, make sure that you follow the formatting of the page (and upload the images using [[Special:Upload]] instead of linking to them externally) and use good grammar conventions. Failure to give a source for your work will probably be classified as a "blatant lie" by [[User:IsaacGS|IsaacGS]] (bring it up with him, not with me), and will subsequently be reverted by him. Failure to upload an image or follow formatting or grammar conventions common across StrategyWiki (read the [[StrategyWiki:Guide|editing guide]] if you need to know about something) will be grounds for an instant-revert by me (no matter how true the info being added). If you have any questions, feel free to contact one of us on our talk pages, on the [[Talk:MapleStory|MapleStory discussion page]], or at the [[StrategyWiki:Staff lounge|staff lounge]]. If you feel that either I or one of the other MapleStory contributors is being unfair to you, bring it up with an [[StrategyWiki:Administrators|administrator]] (other than me, of course :P), and see what their (hopefully neutral) opinion is on the matter. Thanks, and I hope that you will have numerous good contributions in the future! --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig}} 23:47, 20 June 2007 (CDT)

::To add to that a little bit, I don't pretend to be the one who knows everything. I'll check it before I revert it, and there's absolutely no reference on the European website to them updating to .27. On the contrary, they're having an ordinary server check tonight. So that was very plainly false. Some of your other Contributions were positive, so I'm rather perplexed as to what your goal is here. --[[User:IsaacGS|IsaacGS]] 23:54, 20 June 2007 (CDT)
