[edit] Your edits to James Lafferty

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to James Lafferty. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. -- Jim Douglas ^(talk) _(contribs) 07:49, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent reverts

Please stop reverting and read WP:MOSNUM#binary_prefixes. Sarenne 16:12, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

changed mib to mb to be consistent with article citations and referance.209.247.21.237 16:21, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

This Manual of Style, like all style guides, attempts to encourage consistency and ease of reading. The guidelines here are just that: guidelines are not inflexible rules; one way is often as good as another, but if everyone does it the same way, Wikipedia will be easier to read, write and edit.

WP:MOSNUM "New contributors are reminded that clear, informative and unbiased writing is always more important than presentation and formatting." 209.247.21.237 16:23, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia doesn't need to be consistent with sources if the sources are incoherent. Your edits don't follow the Wikipedia guideline about binary prefixes so please stop reverting :

The use of the new binary prefix standards in the Wikipedia is not required, but is recommended for use in all articles where binary capacities are used. In articles where the precise byte capacities are important to description, the binary prefix should be used with binary capacities and the SI prefix should be used with decimal capacities (and should be noted as decimal if not immediately clear). If a contributor changes an article's usage from kilo- etc. to kibi- etc. where the units are in fact binary, that change should be accepted.

If you want to change the rule, go to the discussion pages and try to obtain a new consensus : Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style_(dates_and_numbers). Sarenne 16:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

This Manual of Style, like all style guides, attempts to encourage consistency and ease of reading. The guidelines here are just that: guidelines are not inflexible rules; one way is often as good as another, but if everyone does it the same way, Wikipedia will be easier to read, write and edit. If you want to try and change what your computer says then by all means go ahead. looking at the edit summaries you are clearly the minority. read the mos again "guidelines are not inflexible rules" 209.247.21.237 16:44, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

If you want to change these rules, please demonstrate consensus support for your change and don't revert changes that should be accepted according to current guideline. MoS reflects a consensus and you are acting against this consensus. Sarenne 16:52, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

You are clearly here for one purpose that is changing goodfaith edits by contribitors for your own gain only to change mb to mib according to the edit summaries for each and EVERY article that you have done this to YOU are going against the consensus as the mos says "This Manual of Style, like all style guides, attempts to encourage consistency and ease of reading. The guidelines here are just that: guidelines are not inflexible rules; one way is often as good as another, but if everyone does it the same way, Wikipedia will be easier to read, write and edit.

Your first changes may be goodfaith edits but they are against current wikipedia consensus so I ask you to stop reverting and to go to the discussion pages if you think you can gather a new consensus. Until then, I'll assume bad faith if you revert again a relevant binary prefixes.Sarenne 17:16, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

you seem to be hell bent one one mission every since you came to wikipedia and started these mass changes you have cause havoc.The articles are fine the way they are leave them alone! 209.247.21.237 17:24, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

The articles were inconsistent the way they were so stop your reverts. Sarenne 17:31, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

The articles are now consistent with the citations and referances of the article.You are adding inconsistent and being inconsistent with the article the articles are NOT about the bianary prifix but rather the computer it self or it's cited and referenced manufacturers.so YOU stop reverting. when the computers and manufacturers for that computer change the way they use the prefix then go ahead and use that new prefix like you cant call a Datsun a Nissan or a Geo tracker a Chevy tracker. or even an apple to an orange 209.247.21.237 17:39, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia or any encyclopedia doesn't need to be consistent with citations and references if the sources are obviously inconsistent or inaccurate. Thus, your edits are beeing reverted. Please read carefully WP:MOSNUM. Sarenne 17:47, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

your edits will also be reverted 209.247.21.237 17:48, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

removed improper warning

Please read the MoS and the discussion pages, especially this one. This is your last warning. Sarenne 18:06, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
