Sorry old boy, but I exist. We all have to start somewhere, but this is a real bother.

See [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Damwiki1/Archive]] it was never the intention of anyone to intimidate anyone else. You happened, through no fault of your own to get embroiled in a dispute between two editors. One of the thinks which we try to keep a lid on are edit wars, as they wast a lot of time and are stressful for the people involved. To keep a lid on these types of disputes we have a policy see [[WP:3RR]]). See [[User talk:Kurfürst#One day bock for breaching 3RR]].

As I blocked [[user:Kurfürst]] under that policy and warned [[user:Damwiki1]] under the same policy, when you made the same reversal as [[user:Damwiki1]], I was duty bound to follow it up, as not to do so could have been seen by [[user:Kurfürst]], not unreasonably, as showing favoritism.

However we have a behavioral guideline on Wikipedia called "[[Wikipedia:Assume good faith|assume good faith]]" so as the outcome of the sock puppet investigation was that you could be a friend, and that as a new editor you might well not have been aware of the rules, -- or it could be a coincidence and you are from the same city and share a specific interest but do not know each other -- and those are the inferences that all editors of good faith will draw. So as far as I am concerned the incident is closed, and I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia.

A word of warning though, if you are a friend of Damwiki1 (I am not asking if your are and I don't want you to tell me if you are), do not get drawn into disputes on pages that (s)he edits where you could be seen as either a [[WP:meat puppet|meat puppet]], or working as a [[WP:tag team|tag team]], as these too are a breach of Wikipia rules. --[[User:Philip Baird Shearer|PBS]] ([[User talk:Philip Baird Shearer|talk]]) 12:56, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Damwiki1/Archive it was never the intention of anyone to intimidate anyone else.

One of the thinks which we try to keep a lid on are edit wars, as they wast a lot of time and are stressful for the people involved. To keep a lid on these types of disputes we have a policy see WP:3RR). See User talk:Kurfürst#One day bock for breaching 3RR.
