| But it WAS MY addition that was being deleted by them. I captioned mine perfectly good article distinctly. I was not touching anyone elses work. They kept deleting mine without reason. If they dispute what I posted they should have had the courtesy of raising a dispute. Instead they kep deleting my post and then complained that I was a vandal. I warned them not to delete my article and to dispute or tell me what they don't recognize as truthful. | |||
| Blocking me was not called for. They are the ones that should have been blocked from deleting my work. | |||
| I tried reaching you but I am blocked from adding to your talk to me page. | |||
| :You can stop bullshitting now. I was going to be polite about this but quite frankly I'm pissed off right now. | |||
| :You have been told by both PrimeCupEevee and myself about ] and ]. These are established Misplaced Pages policies your entry is in violation of. You still claim we haven't explained our edits. | |||
| :Let's take a sample addition, , since I've witnessed the Niagara system work. To start up, you're inventing new phrases - "mezzanine layer"? wtf? - which incidentally violates ]. Next up, you say ''Both the Cities and Towns below it and the Province above it have democratic political structures but Ontario's version of Regions does not''. This is patently false; the ] is, to quote its own page, ''elected for three-year terms'' and also contains mayors of each municipality... Incidentally the mayor of a municipality is chosen democratically. Next comes a very importantly sounding complex sentence, ''The great amount of downloading by the province and uploading by the Cities, Towns under them all paying into this Interconnected Regional Network of Public Business Officials, when the citizens have no democratic right or and say in what the employed regional administration actually do with the money after they get it'', but unfortunately I don't have a clue what you're trying to say? Are you saying that money goes where taxpayers don't have control over it? Again, patently false. | |||
| :The last paragraph shows all there is to understand about your so-called "articles". (BTW - the entire page is the 'article'. What you were adding are called 'sections'.) ''A graphic example of this wholly unfair condition is found within Peel Region where the City of Mississauga that has always had as much as 75% of the population of all Peel, paid more than 75% of all the taxes, yet has only even had at most 40% of the vote on the Regional Government's decision. Similar conditions exist throughout the Regional Mezzanine Layer of Government in Ontario in the Networked Nine Region of Ontario.'' | |||
| :I am sorry if residents of Mississauga feel they are ripped off by Peel Region. ''However'', to say that ''similar conditions exist'' elsewhere is a gross exaggeration. No city in Niagara has more than ''40%'' of the region's population. Ditto Halton, Durham ''and'' York. Biggest city in Waterloo Region, Kitchener, has less than 50% of region's population. This topic does not deserve a prominent mention in any article except the Peel Region. Even there, it has to be ''much'' more neutrally stated - ''wholly unfair condition'' is not NPOV at all. I will attempt to re-write the mention in the Peel article in the next 24 hours, and we can discuss changes to that section. Please keep your 'article' out of the other pages. --] <span style="font-variant:small-caps">]</span> 02:36, 28 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ---- | |||
| :I just finished re-phrasing the info on the ] page. While there, I noted a number of things... | |||
| * First of all, the population of Peel is 988,948, and the population of Missisauga is 612,925. This is nowhere close to Mississauga constituting 75% of Peel's population, like your additions stipulated. This does not leave me impressed. | |||
| * Much of the information was already present in the article, in the section immediately above it. While I find your determination to not mess with others' information admirable (your threats to delete our articles notwithstanding), that's not really how wikipedia works. We'd much rather have you add information to the existing section, keeping in with the style and format of the section, than to add a new one immediately underneath, that was edited to basically read as a rant deriding Peel Region and all the things it stood for. | |||
| :Please take a look at the Peel article now and bring up on its talk page any factual points that you feel are missing. Let's co-operate on this; I did not enjoy my night on wikipedia tonight, and I'm sure you didn't either.

| Ok, I will compromise with you. I see that some of the problem relates to the basic lack of understanding most people have about Ontario's Regional Network Structure. I have been a participat of it for many many years and I should be able to put together a whole Wiki page devoted to Regional Structure and history, major players, and current and past activities and the controversies over the years ever since Bill Davis put them in place back in the 70's against everyone else's wishes at the time. | |||
| What I intend to do is create a new page just on the Nine Regional Governments of Ontario as a Network and I will then put a link on each of the region's pages to that new page that will contain more historical and detail about the more specific structural problems that all Nine Regions represent to Ontario and in fact all of Canada; and explains why they result in the Mississauga Condition and others elsewhere, including the current Toronto problems after Metro Region annexed the cities and towns of Toronto under them. | |||
| Do we have a deal? We should be able to work together to make Wiki a more informative place. | |||
| BTW. if Peel population is what you say then Brampton must be 320K not 415K do the math. Caledon has always been 55K for more than 20 years because they don't allow development up there. If you read my post it say it has been as high as 75% yet only ever had 40% of the seats. It's less than 75% now only because Mississauga ran out of raw land years ago. | |||
| :Could you specify what regions you were a ''participat'' of? Surely you must have been involved in a lot of them if you feel entitled to make sweeping generalisations of phenomenons that I, incidentally, have not noticed in Regions of Niagara and Waterloo. | |||
| :You are certainly free to create your own articles. (Well - not without a username in this new Misplaced Pages.) However, you must ensure that its contents follow ], ] and other Misplaced Pages policies. Anyone is free to edit "your" pages in accordance with the line right under the editing box... "You agree to license your contributions under the GFDL." | |||
| :If the said page will be written in a policy-abiding way and will contain content relevant to the Regions, I will of course not oppose inclusion of a link to it. | |||
| :Content-specific notes: I would consider ''always had up to 75%'' a purposefully misleading statement, and I wish you wouldn't use it. --] <span style="font-variant:small-caps">]</span> 01:44, 29 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

| I've dealt with 8 out of the 9 for several decades and also many of the local governments and organizations under them. I am very qualified to write up factual reports on the subject. I will be more careful in my choice of words so it won't be interpreted as being biased due to the general public lack of knowledge about what the Nine Regional Governments of Ontario are, how they operate and their general history as a layer of government with unique properties not found anywhere else which all Nine share because of their baasic structure. | |||
| Please talk to me before deleting anything I write so we don't get into a pissing contest. If someone goes to all the trouble of writting something out here, it is offensive to just delete it without discussion. If something is writen up not to your liking we should try to resolve the dispute over the wording and clear up missunderstandings. | |||
| :That certainly does sound just fine. Just don't go around spamming pages with material blatantly and rather one-sidedly slamming Peel Region... That just makes people unhappy, and we hit the revert button before we have a chance to find out your qualifications or what was really meant by ''always up to 75%''. --] <span style="font-variant:small-caps">]</span> 05:09, 29 June 2006 (UTC) | |||

Revision as of 01:25, 18 July 2006
I got all your messages. I have now read more of the rules and think I understand much better how Wiki generally works and won't get so excited and try to work together and fix things.
No need to thrash this dumb horse any longer. So lets start on a fresh page without all the baggage from all the misunderstandings. We are all interested in the same thing and that's having a good reliable source of public information free of bias and propaganda.
I will sign up with a new user name to get aa fresh start and not to puppet anything.
