* What do you think about taking a hiatus from editing the wiki and posting on the mailing lists for a while? You are extremely prolific, and are consuming hundreds if not thousands of Noisebridge person-hours each month with your postings. I'm struggling to maintain my assumption that you are only acting with the best intentions, while your online interactions with the Noisebridge community are effectively becoming a denial-of-service attack. If not a total hiatus, do you think you could at least try to "lurk more"? - anonymous
* It would have been more considerate to ask me to remove an "inappropriate" category from my personal userpage instead of doing it yourself. - Patrick
** Good idea: Leave pages alone that other people are still working to finish! Some projects/pages take more than one day to finish! - 75.101.62.88 (presumably Patrick?)
*** Your pages which have been replaced with redirects recently are pages which other people have clearly asked you, with explained reasoning, to *not* finish. Why not "finish" some pages before creating more entirely misleading "unfinished" pages?!
*** Your [[Meeting Notes Archive]] lists meetings from 2007 and 2008. You have not even bothered to list all the meetings, and even if you did, you wouldn't keep it updated in the future and neither would other people. [[:Category:Meeting Notes]] should (and does, I believe) have all the meeting notes. If you find meeting notes that are not in that category, it would be helpful if you could add them! Creating a page which purports to list them but does not is not helpful at all.
*** Your [[Hack-Make Space Comparison‎]] indicates we don't have a bunch of stuff we have, and was basically created to say we're competing with TechShop which we totally aren't. If you want to be helpful, why not work on expanding the list of stuff we are known to have ([[Resources]])?
*** Your [[Reservations‎]] indicates no rooms are reserved or events scheduled. There are already *two* places to list events ([[:Category:Events]], which goes on the front page, and the unofficial google calendar). Expecting people to list events in a 3rd place too is silly. They won't. As with the meeting notes archive, in attempting to solve a problem which doesn't exist you've created the very problem you're describing.
*** If you won't take a hiatus from wiki editing, please at least stop creating messes for others to cleanup! I have enough chores outside of NB! I love NB, so I try to do a few chores for it from time to time, taking out the trash, washing dishes, cleaning up the wiki, etc. I've spent far more hours recently dealing with your misguided attempts at applying your business management skills to Noisebridge than I care to count, both here on the wiki and on the mailing list.
*** Could you please replace the pages discussed above with redirects, so someone else doesn't have to? [[Special:Contributions/195.43.157.85|195.43.157.85]] 19:39, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
** Even better idea: Leave my user page alone! Common courtesy says not to edit other peoples' user page! - 75.101.62.88 (presumably Patrick?)
*** Two edits were made to your userpage: to remove an inappropriate category, and to apply wiki formatting. Both changes you did not revert but actually kept in subsequent edits. [[Special:Contributions/195.43.157.85|195.43.157.85]] 19:39, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
