Discretionary sanctions alert

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Misplaced Pages. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding transgender issues and paraphilia classification (e.g. hebephilia), a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

MOS:IDENTITY is being revisited: How should Misplaced Pages refer to transgender individuals before and after their transition?

You are being contacted because you contributed to a recent discussion of MOS:IDENTITY that closed with the recommendation that Misplaced Pages's policy on transgender individuals be revisited.

Two threads have been opened at the Village Pump:Policy. The first addresses how the Manual of Style should instruct editors to refer to transgender people in articles about themselves (which name, which pronoun, etc.). The second addresses how to instruct editors to refer to transgender people when they are mentioned in passing in other articles. Your participation is welcome.

Serbia national cricket team

I saw you stripped down the page Serbia national cricket team with intentions to improve at a later time. I'm not trying to impose or be disrespectful, but that was a few months ago now. It had some good information on it. Although it was obviously not written in a good format, I think a lot of it was useful. Do you think you'd be able to expand the page next time you have an opportunity? Again, I respect you as an editor and would like to see several sports pages expanded. That's all, thank you. :) JTtheOG (talk) 01:05, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

Cricket India Crest.svg

Hi Bozzio. The non-free usage of File:Cricket India Crest.svg in Indian national cricket team was discused at Misplaced Pages:Files for discussion/2016 February 18#File:Cricket India Crest.svg. The closing administrator of that discusion was Explicit and he was the one who removed the file from the article and the corresponding non-free use rationale from the file's page. There is a record of this deiscussion listed on File talk:Cricket India Crest.svg at the top of this page. If you disagree with Explicit's close and would like him to reconsider it, then you should discuss it at User talk:Explicit or follow the instructions listed at WP:CLOSECHALLENGE. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:36, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

There is only one person involved in that discussion – you. Looking through the history of the India national cricket team article it seems you've been edit warring on this issue for a while. Misplaced Pages works on consensus, the burden is on you to gain support for your position not to unilaterally delete images that have been in place for years. Thanks, ¡Bozzio! 04:39, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
I did not close the discussion, an admnistrator did. I didn't delete the image, it was only removed from one of the articles by said administrator. If you wish to challenge the close, then you should discuss it with Explicit. If you wish to challenge the way the policy was interpreted by Explicit, you should dicuss it at WT:NFCC. As for the "burden", WP:NFCCE clearly says that the burden is on those willing to use a non-free image in an article to show that said usage satisfies WP:NFCCP by providing a valid non-free use rationale, not the other way around. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:59, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
