What if somebody made consecutive edits on a page? I do it sometimes, but that's because I don't want my netbook to load all the page up just to edit one minor mistake, and sometimes, I just spot another mistake after editing the page. :/ {{User:LeftyGreenMario/sig}} 16:00, 9 July 2011 (EDT) | What if somebody made consecutive edits on a page?

I should point out that crossing your flaming at another user out deserves a reminder. So if I said "You idiot" at somebody, but I crossed it out like this: You idiot, it deserves a reminder. Just saying.
- I'd actually say it's more dependent on circumstances: sometimes it could be a reminder-worthy example of passive-aggressiveness, but it might also truly be in jest, and other times, it might be so bad that it deserves a warning despite the "just kidding" excuse. Keep in mind that a lot of situations aren't as clear-cut as we'd like them to be, and things are bound to come up that aren't detailed on this page: it's not an exhaustive list, after all, but more of a guideline on how to deal with troublemakers while at the same avoiding breaking rules yourself. - Walkazo 17:56, 25 June 2011 (EDT)
