:: As for me I would appreciate to learn what you consider "Mal-formed meta-code" but you won't probably answer that either. --[[User:Walterpachl|Walterpachl]] ([[User talk:Walterpachl|talk]]) 11:13, 21 August 2014 (UTC) (admittedly a novice in Metacode)

Siskus (in reference to your comments above starting with the "jelling"):
 
 
It is unfortunate that because a contribution doesn't meet your quality standards, it has to be marked by you as being written by a novice.   That is not the definition of a novice (writer).   Of course, it would help immensely if you could list what your quality standard are.
 
The second issue is calling someone a liar.   I believe that English is your second language, so I am going to presume that you don't know that the   ''telling of a lie''   is the   ''intentional''   telling of a non-truth and not just the stating/telling of something inaccurate.   Stating that someone is lying, at the very least, is both inflammatory and insulting, and it impugns my reputation (by accusing someone of deliberately stating a falsehood).
 
The third issue would concern your definition of ''malformed'' meta-code. &nbsp; I would assume even experts, at one time or another, aren't perfect and produce what you may call &nbsp; ''malformed meta-code''. &nbsp; However, what is at issue here is ''your'' definition of ''malformed'' meta-code (and stating that it is malformed and using that as a basis to flag an entry as being written by a novice), and in particular, how I have used &nbsp; ''hard blanks'' &nbsp; (also known, among other names, as ''non-breaking blanks'') in my various texts. &nbsp; I do not believe your assumption that only a novice would use hard blanks. &nbsp; It's easy to toss around labels like that without defining or pointing out why you think that the use of non-breaking blanks belong to the domain of novices. &nbsp; I can't believe that the creators of HTML sat around and thought of features to include in HTML just for novices to use. &nbsp; I would think that <u>every</u> feature in HTML has a use, even by non-novices.
 
I, for one (and I suspect everyone), don't want you to stop with your (programming language entry) contributions, but your inflammatory and insulting comments have no place at Rosetta Code. &nbsp; On reflection, it's not for me to say that (but that is what I believe as led by observations and by the understanding of Rosetta Code's intent and philosophy).
 
I'm not sure if you meant to be snide in &nbsp; ''having fun'', &nbsp; but that sort of (past) behavior isn't fun for anyone and causes much discord and the least of which, much wasted time and effort to address, not to mention it leaves a bad impression for everyone who may visit these pages on Rosetta Code in the future. &nbsp; Those sort of insults, name-calling, and bad behavior will hang around a long time and besmirch Rosetta Code. &nbsp; I know the administrators of Rosetta Code consider time a very much precious resource (and ditto for me as well). &nbsp; (In my opinion), nobody has time to waste on this sort of name-calling and insulting statements. &nbsp; I have been thinking that you may have raised in a different culture (where maybe confrontational behavior was the norm and challenging someone else's beliefs/methods were the methods used to address differences), but you've repeatably refused to answer my (and others) queries for clarification, direct questions, or polite requests for more information on your thinking and postings. &nbsp; You have called me (on Rosetta Code) a novice, stupid, and now a liar. &nbsp; You have yet to address/retract/apologize for any of those grievances. &nbsp; I'm trying to remain as civil as I can under these libelous circumstances, and I remain in giving you the benefit of the doubt. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 21:03, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

'''Bold text'''Hi Siskus, you seem to have annoyed REXX contributors. Could you answer their polite questions rather than just deleting them as I think they are worried that you will make further edits of the sort they would like to have a dialogue with you about. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 17:31, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
