thread_title: Ok Then

message: One or two users, who did not appear to have Wikipedia accounts, added a spurious 'other persons with this name' section to this otherwise legitimate article. The initial justification for inserting this was 'the lack of notoriety of J. H. of St Andrews'; apparently that user's definition of 'lack of notoriety' was 'someone I haven't heard of', but the notoriety of this J.H. was attested to by external sources. The person to whom the additions refered referred lacked notoriety, in accordance with relevant Wikipedia guidelines.
If the user(s) wish to persist in claiming that this other John Honey is notorious enough to merit an article, they should set up a disambiguation page and a new article (which will no doubt be deleted once its lack of relevance is established), instead of trying to sabotage this one.

thread_title: Deletion

message: Our section was completely serious, and it seemed like jelously jealousy errupted from you.  Anways Anyways[sic], just leave me alone.  Don't reply to this discussion, don't delete any more of my pages.  Just leave me alone.  Get a life, maybe a wife, and spend a little less time with wiki.  He doesn't validate your intelligence.  Everyone at the school will be upset over what you did to our John Honey, so what ever happens to your website pages isn't my fault.  I honestly don't have anything to do with it, which is why I'm clearly making sure wikipedia doesn't block me as a user.  I will try to make sure they don't, but they are emotional college kids.  You should have thought of that before you started.  Good luck with your life and your homosexual experiences as a catholic.  I'm sorry so many of your marraiges marriages failed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.99.125.44 (talk) 02:09, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: I'm Done, You can have it, Just leave me alone

message: First of all, if you knew anything at all about Wikipedia you'd realise that nothing is ever deleted from it - all you have to do to get a look at any previous version is click on the 'History' tab at the top. Go on, try it - you'll see I haven't deleted a thing, just changed what comes up when someone searches on the term, clicks a link, or whatever. Second, that you couldn't grasp even this basic operation explains why you apparently also have no conception of what constitutes 'notoriety', and having a few friends just ain't it.
I could spend time correcting your rather bizarre assertions about myself, but thankfully I actually do have better things to do.Lordrosemount 23:34, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Eh?

message: While I am sure that your classmate is important to you; he is (at least currently) of no great significance beyond your immediate community.  John Honey died rescuing men at sea at great personal risk to himself.  It is an insult to this hero’s memory to use his page as a platform for a comic send-up of one of your personal friends.
Indeed if any one could write an article about an individual they know, on any page, simply because two individuals have the same name then Wikipedia would be of no use to any one.
If you still believe that your classmate deserves his own page I suggest you start a new one and do not insult the memory of John Honey of the Royal Burgh of St Andrews amongst the Scots. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.145.191.150 (talk) 19:09, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Ignorence
 ''Ignorance'' is sometimes quite ugly 

message: this is john honey, the non-significant one, and i would like to say to my classmates: i appreciate your work, care and everything else you feel or have done for me.  This isn't a big deal and its not worth getting in an argument or vandelizing someone's page--how would that show on my character.  just leave it alone.  if my life were defined by a wikipedia page than it wouldn't be worth admiring.  
to the man who values the scot: i apologize and hope it won't continue.  i think i've settled everything down.  though, please don't call them ignorant, don't use childish insults, and don't make mean statements against my country.  anyone can correct spelling, thats far from intelligence. and for both sides to resort to calling each other twats and queers looks bad for both parties.  They're intelligent, as i assume you're intelligent, and this whole drama is probably just misunderstanding and differing values from both sides.  sorry for every thing.  enjoy your website.  its very nice and i hope you genuinely have a good day.  the wikipedia rules are here for a reason and i respect you for using them.  i hope this letter can be interpreted as a loving remark with no sarcasm or bitterness in hopes of healing the online community.  
take care,
John E. Honey —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.99.125.44 (talk) 03:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
