edit Please be careful about what you say to people. Some remarks, such as your addition to User talk:Galaxybeing can easily be misinterpreted, or viewed as harassment. Wikipedia is a supportive environment, where contributors should feel comfortable and safe while editing. Please do not tell other users that "A good spanking probably wouldn't hurt". That can be seen as targeting, something not taken lightly here. I have had talks with this editor in the past, and while what they are doing may not be desirable, please do not harass them. I'd also suggest removing/rewording your statement, as many things you wrote are borderline unacceptable. Sir MemeGod :D (talk - contribs - created articles) 16:27, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Well, I am sorry about that. I have a bad day. I'll delete it immediately. SkyFlubbler (talk) 17:02, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- No, you're fine, everyone has bad days! It was just a bit aggressive, that's all. :) Sir MemeGod :D (talk - contribs - created articles) 17:14, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
