 |text = If I left you a message on [[Special:MyTalk|your talk page]], please respond there, I am watching your talk page. That's of course unless the message at your talk page was a mere heads-up as to progress on a discussion here or on another talk page, in which case probably best to continue the discussion where it is. 

I prefer to discuss issues regarding any particular article, policy etc. at its talk page, so if I'm already involved in a discussion there's no need to fork the discussion to here, and if not then a simple heads-up here with a [[wp:wikilink|link]] to the relevant talk page and section is best. Be aware of the [[WP:canvassing|canvassing]] guidelines, but if you're just asking me for advice rather than a whole list of people there should be no problem there.

'''Please don't censor my talk page.''' Just because you don't support what someone else is saying is no reason to remove it. Is it now? (You wouldn't think I had to say that, but I have learned otherwise.)

On the other hand, if the edits you are removing are by banned users (or their socks), then please feel free to do it. That's not censorship, it's administrative drudgery, and I thank you for taking it on. But '''if there's doubt as to who the contributor really is''', or '''if the proposed ban is not yet in force''', or both, better to leave me to clean up my own page. (And again I would have thought that was obvious to all, but have learned otherwise.)  A non-abusive heads-up on the other antics of the contributor, in reply to what they have said or done here, is always appreciated. [[wikt:TIA|TIA]]!
