RM discussion you might be interested in

Hi, B2C! There are a pair of related RM discussions you might want to take a look at; your expertise could be helpful. One is at Talk:Brenda Ann Spencer and the other is at Talk:Cleveland School massacre. The potential confusion is that both are about school shootings at a school named Cleveland Elementary School - one in San Diego in 1979, and one in Stockton in 1989. Thanks. --MelanieN (talk) 18:43, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

Third time is the charm

Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity? It's doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. LOL. Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 01:54, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

LOL. --B2C 19:30, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Notability of deaths and dead people who become notable after death

Hello! After seeing your comments on Talk:Chandra Levy#Requested move, I would like to let you know that there is a discussion going on at WP:VPP#Notability of deaths and dead people who become notable after death that I think you may be interested in. Happy editing! Technical 13 (talk) 11:30, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

Reverting a closure is, at best, unusual

If you disagree with a closure, take it elsewhere, but reverting the closure is a wholly inappropriate behaviour, perhaps even disruptive. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 19:42, 19 April 2013 (UTC).

Talk:Suicide of Kelly Yeomans#Requested move 2 (second request)

I wonder if you can withdraw request. Despite one or two supports, the consensus opposes mass renaming. --George Ho (talk) 00:02, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

But such a lopsided vote is a pretty good indication that you're out of touch with the consensus. Your continued pushing of minimalist naming theories has been a constant annoyance to many for years; why suddenly ramping it up again? Dicklyon (talk) 02:21, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Worst case we have a good discussion. I may be out of touch with consensus, but I hope this discussion will help me get there. So far, I still don't get it. --B2C 04:38, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi B2C. RE: Your preference of minimalist naming.

You seem to have this preference and I am unable to guess why you have this preference. Can you explain? This preference colours your reading of policy/guidelines, and it shows in your edits to and talk page support in titling policy and guidelines.

I think this is cause to the annoyance felt by others. In other ways, you seem very logical and thorough. You efforts at Talk:Yogurt/yogurtspellinghistory, for example, impressed me. I wish that we could improve on mutual understanding here. Explaining your preference of minimalist naming may help. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:00, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Have you read my user page and FAQ? --B2C 12:38, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

I've added a Minimalist titles question/answer to my FAQ, but please remember that that general reasoning is only secondary in this particular case. My main argument is that these suicide bios are typical of WP bios about barely notable people, that the topic of these articles is the person in question, and the title should reflect that. Also, while personal accomplishment is usually a factor in WP bios, it is not always. --B2C 17:51, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

I read your userpage when I first encountered you, and I was looking for you views on cycling. This was before I had taken any interest in article titling. I've read it again, and read the new answer. I hope to find time to discuss it in detail. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:22, 25 April 2013 (UTC)
