Hi Brainiacal! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. |
Your claim that "engined" is a nonsensical adjective is incorrect. The Oxford English Dictionary: "engined, adj.: As the second element in parasynthetic compounds. 1. Now chiefly of an aeroplane: having the specified number of engines." It gives a range of examples of usage, such as "The four-engined ski-shod C-130 landed the next afternoon right on schedule" and "The use of the eight-engined B-52 bombers". Your placement of a semicolon before "both of which are closer in size to the 727-200" is incorrect. That phrase cannot stand alone as a sentence so it needs to be separated from the preceding material by a comma, not a semi-colon. A semi-colon would be fine before something like "Both of these are..." Dricherby ( talk) 14:56, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
You might want to re-do part of your edit that I reverted, but don't change Darwin's quote this time. I've noticed that you are more fond of hyphenation than I am, which definitely puts you in the "over hyphenation" category of more neutral observers. Compound modifiers at the end of a clause, as opposed to before a noun, do not generally need hyphens. Dicklyon ( talk) 03:41, 23 December 2013 (UTC)

You may want to retract that comment, at least in part. Wikipedia thrives on collaboration, which requires civil discourse. Painting another editor as a cartoon villain because the two of you disagree on a matter of wording is not acceptable. Also, if you have been contributing since Wikipedia's beginning days, you should be aware that a claim such as "more proper and meaningful" requires a reliable source to back it up; we cannot just take your personal opinion on the proper use of English.

Your recent editing history at Amino acid shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Bbb23 ( talk) 23:52, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

Please make yourself familiar with the notes for the suspect, then respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/EtymAesthete. Thank you. -- DAJF ( talk) 06:14, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
