==Contentious editing==

Do you believe you have a <i>valid point of contention</i> about my edits and would like the whole world to know it the moment they come to my user page?

Here's your chance!

If you can [[Competence_%28law%29|competently]] argue for why any of my edits are less than valid and you feel

a need to vent, please <b>first</b> post something bordering on insult <b><i>about my edit</i></b>

(certainly <b>not <i>about</i> me</b>, remember [[WP:NPA]]) and then present your argument(s) (or use my [[User_talk:Netscott|talk page]] if you're hesitant to edit my user page) for why they are not valid. When insulting <i>my edit(s)/argument(s)/view(s)</i> use words like

[[Wiktionary:asinine|asinine]], [[Wiktionary:inane|inane]] or the old standby [[Wiktionary:ridiculous|ridiculous]].

Know that the more [[Wiktionary:ostentatious|ostentatious]] and [[Wiktionary:sesquipedalian|sesquipedalian]] the words are that you use to insult my edits,

the more I'll be liable to "take notice" and give proper attention to your entire argument. Also, the more likely they'll <b><i>remain</i></b> for awhile on my User page.

There's only one simple rule... make your comments <b><i>only</i></b> in the box provided below

and try to have fun! <br>

On second thought, if you simply want to insult <b><i>my edit(s)/argument(s)/view(s)</i></b> then by all means, do so here but do your best to remain [[WP:CIVIL|civil]].
