:::::OK, I'll try and make this clearer for you. I linked to two edits. The first was a Vote X post, subsequently deleted, in which he took BB to task for deleting the post in Farsi. When I said "he had a point", that's what I was referring to. The second post I linked to was BB's deletion of the Farsi post. If you had bothered to check the edit history, you would have seen that the Farsi post was not made by Vote X. BB deleted it not because it was by Vote X, but because it was in Farsi, and he incorrectly described it as "vandalism". My point is that just because a post on the ref desk is in a language you do not understand, that is not sufficient reason for deleting it.

Nonsense on your Unprotected Talk Page

I'm very confused as to what the hell is going on over there- to the point I'm debating if I should just Remove them all? Geartooth Friendship is Magic! 12:28, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Never Mind, it appears it has been removed. Still a bit baffled. Geartooth Friendship is Magic! 12:31, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

I'm no fan of Vote (X) for Change, but he had a point here. Why did you make this edit? Would you still have deleted it if it had been in French or German? --Viennese Waltz 15:47, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

VW please see WP:BMB. Vote X's edits are reverted by those of us who see them no matter what language they are in. MarnetteD|Talk 15:57, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sigh, I wish you'd read my post properly. I know Vote X's edits very well, and if you'd bothered to check my edit history you would have seen that I've reverted dozens of them myself. I'm asking BB why he reverted this edit, which was not by Vote X. --Viennese Waltz 16:02, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Can you provide an exact translation of the Arabic question? ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots16:07, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) I did read it VW. It clearly says "I'm no fan of Vote (X) for Change, but he had a point here". No where do you state that the post linked to was made by someone other than Vote X. I'm not sure how more properly I could have read it. Sigh MarnetteD|Talk 16:10, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'll try and make this clearer for you. I linked to two edits. The first was a Vote X post, subsequently deleted, in which he took BB to task for deleting the post in Farsi. When I said "he had a point", that's what I was referring to. The second post I linked to was BB's deletion of the Farsi post. If you had bothered to check the edit history, you would have seen that the Farsi post was not made by Vote X. BB deleted it not because it was by Vote X, but because it was in Farsi, and he incorrectly described it as "vandalism". My point is that just because a post on the ref desk is in a language you do not understand, that is not sufficient reason for deleting it.
