January 2010

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to 2010. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. ttonyb (talk) 18:49, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make any unconstructive edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.

Please stop adding the text to 2010 concerning pronunciation. It is too much detail for the article and should not be added in. Perhaps it could be part of 2010s, but not here. If you feel it should be added here, please post a notice on the 2010 talk page. If consensus is achieved it will be added in to 2010. If you continue adding it without consensus, you could be banned from editing or creating articles. ttonyb (talk) 18:54, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • here. (Oh, I see you repaired your first typo.) And the alternate pronunciation SHOULD certainly be added. You should be banned for not allowing such a constructive edit. NPR does NOT dictate what is truth. I mention this as conjecture e.g. 'everyday conversation' because it is true. I've heard no one mention the NPR article!

What I am saying is not vandalism. 'Oh ten' is being 'heard'. I don't say it is being held as the formal pronunciation, nor am I removing valid content. I am adding valid content. It is being 'heard' and being used. Saying that this phrase is not is being used is numerous types of 'isms'. Wikipedia, by default, is editable by the public and I am adding constructive information to document the present will and action of people.

Where is the 'talk page'?

You are well beyond having violated WP:3RR (a blockable offense), and I ask that you make use of Talk:2010 if you would like to make a disputed change. Cosmic Latte (talk) 19:39, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, there we go. It's about time someone sacked up and let me know what I was doing wrong. So, now, how do i gain consensus?

Go to Talk:2010, click the "new section" tab on the top of the page, and make your case. Cosmic Latte (talk) 19:42, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is the phrase "oh ten" valid?

Have you heard this phrase at all? On a Podcast, on the street, in the bank, etc.? I have. Multiple times.

I would like this phrase added to the 2010 pronunciation information.

I, personally, deal with hundreds of people per day and none have mentioned the NPR article. I have heard people, not hundreds, say what they will with respect to this year and it is 'oh ten'. It is a phenomenon that is happening for this year and I want it known to those in 3010 that it happened.

Bottom line: if you've ever heard this, then it is valid. If it is valid, then it should be added to the 2010 page as valid.

All me best, Me
