Deleting comments on your talk page I should point out the wikipage wikipedia Avoiding common mistakes This page is essentially a list of rules that others expect you to abide by The second to last rule is relevent to talk pages While it s not the case that you can never delete material from your user page it is not considered acceptable to do so to new comments I wouldn t worry too much about undeleting the comments you have already deleted but I would ask respectfully that you refrain from deleting any further comments especially those critical of yourself If you continue to delete critical comments on this page you may find that others take offense in which case they may try to get you banned 10 18 2 Oct 2004 UTC
