::: Unfortunately Niteshift36, the quote you posted is a comment on an "edit" and not an "editor", so it does not qualify as a [[WP:NPA|personal attack]]. Accusations of [[WP:OWN|ownership]] are different, and of course this invites a larger review of both parties actions. You could suggest to Blaxthos to keep any discussion-related messages on the article talkpage for now.

*Why does that response not surprise me? Did I say anything about personal attacks? Or did I say incivility? [[User:Niteshift36|Niteshift36]] ([[User talk:Niteshift36|talk]]) 11:00, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

:: If you're not going to provide specific diff's related to being accused of ownership, then your sole complaint is surrounding the phrase ''"Niteshift36, smartassed comments are unwelcome and unproductive."''. You indeed made a sarcastic comment about "why even write articles at all". Indeed, [[WP:SARCASM|sarcasm]] has no place in a positive discussion about a subject, especially when trying to resolve an issue. Based on the diff's you have provided, nobody has been uncivil, nobody has created a hostile editing environment, and nobody - possibly save yourself - have created a situation where difficult communications exist. It honestly appears that because your ideas are not getting consensus that you're trying to discredit others - not a good idea, if this is in fact the case.
