Wow

A one-minute revert to vandalism on Tourette syndrome -- Thanks !!! Sandy 15:45, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Questionable revert

Excuse me, but could you tell me why you reverted my edits? Your reason was "nothing notable was added". I see you are new to this site, and I'm sure you are well aware of the wiki nature of this site (anyone can edit, etc.), and would like to make you aware of the problematic nature of this. Please, read Wikipedia:Wikiquette, and see if you can tell me what was wrong with what you did - Jack (talk) 23:36, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

These are the reasons:

"This over-reaction to anything and everything led to her becoming popular outside the house, but not particually within it." I believed this is opinionated, and anyway she can't have been that popular, as she was evicted.

"outside the house's front door" I didn't think this was really notable, and also she was inside the front door.

"(heavily pregnant) was forced to climb a flight of stairs in order to collect the hyserical girl." Davina may have been heavily pregnant, but I didn't think it was necessary to say it. Also saying "hysterical girl" is opinionated. I also think saying "forced to climb a flight of stairs" makes Nikki sound worse than she is, and Davina as some sort of hero, which she is not.

I'm sorry, I can't find anything wrong with what I did. --Alex9891 (talk) 23:47, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, your first point is fine, it is a bit POV, but it is extremely difficult to maintain an air of neutrality when talking about a TV show that is based on opinion. Inside the front door? Excuse me for not rushing to review my extensive archives of everything I watch on TV, just edit it, that really didn't justify a revert. Davina, by the way, makes the series, saving the trainwrecks that are the contestants. Nikki was enjoyable to watch, but only because of her selfish, spoilt brat ways. The kind of morbid curiosity that forces you to turn your head as you drive by a car crash. So I think, yes my edits were slightly POV, edit away, please, but do not revert without a very good reason. Reversions are reserved for people writing "nikki likes it up the bum", otherwise known as vandalism. Always remember, obey the three revert rule and to assume good faith - Jack (talk) 00:07, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for notifying me of this. I can see now that I shouldn't have reverted it all in one go, but in the future I'll know not to. Once again, thanks for pointing this out to me. --Alex9891 (talk) 00:11, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: How???

Is there any specific reason you need to know? :) — FireFox 19:25, 18 July '06

No just wondering where it could possibly say it --Alex9891 (talk) 19:26, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

I really would like to know though! --Alex9891 (talk) 19:29, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

I myself get confused as to how my "source" knows who voted for who, but they're reliable, so I'm happy. — FireFox 19:35, 18 July '06
