 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
It is important to keep your cool while using Wikipedia, but even the best of us can get involved in a heated debate. If someone says you might be overreacting, take a few moments and stop to ponder whether it is the case. If you are, perhaps a wikibreak or simply walking away from the situation may be the best option.
