== BLPN discussion ==

You may be interested in this discussion based on your comments in this old RfC . I'm not looking for a specific article level change rather a general opinion about situations like this. ] (]) 15:56, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
:{{u|Springee}} thanks for letting me know, I definitely would have joined the discussion but don't want to get you into any trouble with any overzealous editors who think you were trying to canvass. I fully agree that the label "far-right" should never be hyperlinked because it's a completely misleading term that American media likes to use. The hyperlink leads to an article talking about Nazism and other far more extreme positions supporting literal genocide compared to the braindead American conspiracy theorists who are also called "far-right" but have expressed 0 support for murdering millions of people. ] 04:18, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi Bill

Doing some googling I found an of a discussion you had regarding andy-academiaathotmail.com. He has emailed me 26 times operating under ], asking me to rollback and edit war various articles on the Israel-Palestine conflict. I have to admit, I do agree with some of his reasoning behind the edits, but it seems that he is attempting to use me (a reviewer perms and auto/extendedautoconfirmed user) as a shield to hide behind his edits in a war with another annoying user, ]. Is there a way to email-ban all accounts created by his email, because I'm getting tired of him asking me to do work for him. He even reached out to me yesterday asking for general requests:


''Fri, Oct 6, 12:51 PM (21 hours ago)

Could you add something about the many deadly shootings against Israelis in that town after in lead?
''


At this point, I think he is just asking me to make edits for him because he knows it is less likely that a user with nearly 5k edits is less likely to be banned/blocked for making these types of edits. It seems that he has also been threatened on his talk page with a block if he continues to edit Israel articles. ] (]) 14:08, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
:{{u|EytanMelech}} sorry you have to deal with that, the man is insane and emailed me dozens of times as well. Make sure you report his accounts and emails to CheckUsers, and it is possible to block his email. You can specify that specific users are not able to email you anymore in Misplaced Pages email settings. Also, make sure that if you do report his email itself, do so privately to a CheckUser so nobody thinks you're doxxing someone. Good luck, he is a really pathetic one. ] 04:16, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
