Road casualties in Sussex Police article edit

Sorry about this, but I removed the road casualties stats you added because I don't see that they're that relevant to the article. If I'm wrong, do please explain.--A bit iffy (talk) 03:47, 6 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Recent trouble with Hakan and the List of countries by military expenditure edit

The user Hakan has displayed a very aggressive mentality during this whole situation. He has viewed the various discussion pages as a place to do battle rather than a place to communicate in a productive and polite manner. Anyway, i'd just like to say thank you for your involvement and its good to see other like minded Wikipedians out there. Keep up the good work, and enjoy editing!

I didn't know what to say but thanks for the thanks! Kookiethebird (talk) 21:49, 24 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Conversation with Edwardx edit

Hi kookiethebird - before I make any changes to the Grant Shapps article which I know you've been involved in moderating, I wanted to draw your attention to my constructive discussion with Edwardx here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Edwardx#Grant_Shapps just to give you a heads-up before I edit. Any concerns, let me know on your or my talk page. Contribsx (talk) 00:48, 6 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Surrey Police edit

Hi,

I reverted the IP's edit as they reverted (without explanation) one of the anti-vandal bots restorations of referenced material. Hope that makes sense. Amortias (T)(C) 22:24, 12 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

This is what "obviously inappropriate" means, by the way. --JBL (talk) 15:24, 2 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

That doesn't explain anything. And once again, you are completely unable to debate the issue. If it is "obviously inappropriate" then you should easily be able to say why. You are simply unable to do so. On top of that you have a very high-handed and arrogant attitude -- "I'm right because I say I am".
Additionally, you have, yet again, failed to explain why the page was just fine for over two weeks. Will I ever get a response to that or will you always conveniently pretend that I hadn't asked?
You can pretend indefinitely that I haven't said the above or what I said on the administrators noticeboard, but I know and you know that I have and that you have been completely unable and unwilling to respond to my points. Kookiethebird (talk) 18:39, 4 July 2015 (UTC)Reply



I have unblocked you, per email conversations and your agreement to not repost the material that resulted in this block. LFaraone 16:59, 4 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
