:I delete articles and images and revert edits when it is necessary and have done so on this site for the past few years now. I generally take a no-nonsense approach to things and, if the article or contribution is of no value, it will be deleted/reverted. I do dislike GTA IV but that doesn't mean that I will revert edits about the game. In fact, I've frequently edited character articles for the GTA IV Era games and improved them. I've done it for every other game in the series and will do so with the GTA IV Era ones, without using any prejudice against them. As for it being annoying, it is annoying when I'm patrolling edits to find a new talk page contribution like "I want his fucking house", which contributes nothing. As for including things, I seem to recall wanting to include articles on many more things than what users, including yourself, have in the past wanted to include, whilst there is no real need to keep images that are not currently being used as the majority of the unused ones are unused for a reason.

::Hey, I'm glad that you're coming clean and all, but please don't delete my comment on my talk page and replace it with your own comment. Anyway, my little comments on various talk pages are simply me copying what other wikis do. They write something cheeky, which is then followed by a reply or two, and then it becomes a whole humorous conversation. If they were of no value, they'd be deleted, but they don't because its funny. As I attempted to mention before, my unnecesary contributions were not what I meant by "hard work". There are various comments on your talk page regarding other users complaining about you deleting THEIR hard work, which I'm sure were more important than mine. I notice that you seem to delete entire atricles rather than take the time to edit them. Why is that?--[[User:FawkesGamer360|FawkesGamer360]] 01:43, February 23, 2010 (UTC)

:Firstly, I did not delete the comment you made but opened an edit window before the comment was added and saved after it. As for what other wikis do, that is irrelevant on this wiki. Discussions can be taken to the forum, the articles and talk pages are reserved simply for dicussion on the article and how to improve it. As the whole 'humourous conversation', this is a wiki designed to be an encyclopedia, and not a discussion forum and 'discussions' such as the one you added to Yusuf Amir's page have no place being on the site in my opinion, but the compromise is the forum. As for deleting 'their hard work', if it was relevant, necessary, within policy, consistant with templates already used or worth keeping it wouldn't have been deleted or reverted in the first place. As for people complaining, that doesn't bother me and never will. The wiki needs someone prepared to eliminate the things that aren't required and on this site, in all honesty, that is me. I have a no-nonsense approach. If something shouldn't be there, I'll remove it. As for your question, as mentioned above, if they were worth keeping or relevant they would be left with an expand or cleanup template.
