infobox

Hi Codename Lisa, Just to make you aware "| collapsible = yes" is for collapsing large screenshots (like at BBC IPlayer where you removed this option), Didn't know if you knew what this infobox option was for so thought I'd make you aware :), Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 21:45, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello, Davey2010

The |collapsible= its self is a MOS violation: Please study the bold-faced sentence in MOS:COLLAPSE. Hence, this parameter must only be used under the auspecies of WP:IAR, i.e. when not using produces a deformed article. But BBC iPlayer has plenty of spaces in proximity of its TOC. The parameter must not be used.

Best regards,

Hi Codename Lisa, Ahhh okay I didn't know that, So if it's a MOS violation then shouldn't this parameter be "deprecated" ? (not sure if that's the right word but ie stopped), Anyway thanks for making me aware and restoring your edits :), –Davey2010^Talk 14:05, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

@Davey2010: Hi again. Since the MOS is just a guideline, it can be ignored whenever the need calls. If it was a policy, on the other hand, things might have gone really scary.

But seriously, all you need to have done was to apply the common sense. There was so much free white space besides the table of contents. Why not fill it with the screenshot?

Best regards,

You have really bad manners. -- CoolKoon (talk) 15:10, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

...and that, ladies and gentlemen of Wikipedia, is what you get for copyediting a whole article.

When I went to school, people who wrote poorly got corporal punshiment. Now those people harass the people who write well.

"that, (...) is what you get for copyediting a whole article." - Since your ignorance is exceeded only by your arrogance, let me point it out that I posted that NOT because of your copyediting of an article with questionable grammar (which is fine per se), but because you completely reverted my edits (instead of just going ahead and doing your copyediting) and to add insult to injury, you topped it off with a summary of "Awful writing style, including disregard for collocation, bad use of pronouns, introduction of redundancy" (which is not only false, but also completely uncalled for, unless your point was to piss me off, in which case it has served its purpose). -- CoolKoon (talk) 21:16, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

A note for for both of you: Describing TrueCrypt's position in the TPM Criticism section would go a lot more smoothly, and would result in fewer disagreements over content and style, if there was actually a reliable source to work from. There isn't, so I've put a {{citation needed}} on the sentence that all three of us have edited. — Warren. ‘ talk , 00:39, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

I agree -- CoolKoon (talk) 07:42, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Personal attack?! Eh, you're a douchebag. It's obvious from your editing style, attitude, arrogance and edit count even. Yeah, this is what you get by being uncooperative with others and trying your best to offend people in the very first moment. Thank God that you probably live so far from me that chances are I'll never ever meet you IRL. Go ahead and delete this as well. Just pretend that everything is normal and everybody else is at fault but never you. Oh and that sockpuppet allegation is just hilarious. Probably even the CIA is after you, I'm sure :D -- CoolKoon (talk) 07:42, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Oh, I am not going to delete this. It is precious. —Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 07:51, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
