82.43.210.155 

Hope you don';t mind, but I extended your block of 82.43.210.155 to one week.  It was the second time and the vandalism was pretty bad.  First 24 hour block didn't seem to do the trick so I felt one week may.  No problems if you want to use your time, I just wanted to notify you of the change. (talk) 

 Thanks 

...for reverting vandalism to my user page. — (?) Seen this already? 

 I know two of your brothers

 Moline 2 

A few days ago I asked you why you reverted my efforts on the Moline, Illinois page and either I didn't get a response from you or I didn't receive it.  In your initial message to me, given at the time when you reverted all of the work I had done, you called my efforts vandalism and nonsense; I realize this is probably a auto-generated message sent in response to a flagged *accidental* event, but given that I've made several attempts to communicate to you, via this page as well as four or five times thru the original "vandalism/nonsense" (to which to you responded *once*, with, I might add, a tone that was less than in keeping with the tone I see when I read the messages on this page).  Nevertheless, what I was trying to accomplish with the Moline page was to take a wikipedia entry that was woefully lacking and add some real value to it  I had added the the Moline page a "location", "air travel", "major interstate highways", "sports", "gambling", and "landmarks; and notable bridges" sections.  Additionally, I completely revamped the schools section into an "education" section that provided internal and external links to every school mentioned.  You removed all of that.  BTW, I tried to document all of my efforts in the Discussion page, so anyone could see what I was trying to do: make the Moline page better.  Before I found it, it was little more than a glorified rundown of which neighborhood has more Mexicans than the next... and I found it simply too racist to let stand.  Yes, I also was trying to edit the Neighborhood section, to remove the racism, but also better demonstrate the real flavor and history of the town.  Thanks to you, the history and flavor is gone, and the racism is back...  Congratulations.  A final request; if you see fit to keep my efforts out of the wiki, then please be so kind as to be consistent, for I still see the results of my writing on the Moline page.  IF you are going to remove my work and have the Moline page reflect the rants of one racist hick, please be consistent and completely remove all of my work - either keep all of my work in... or none of it.  Thanks, and kind regards,   07 March 2006 (UTC) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by  (talk • contribs) 19:57, 7 April 2006  (UTC)
