April 2019

Hello, I'm Kirbanzo. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the help desk. Thanks. Kirbanzo  01:58, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

Question: why? I deleted a bunch of references, yes, but those were broken references that the previous editor (who, I want to say, was me before I had created an account) had failed to delete properly. When I viewed the page again I saw a bunch of red "cite errors" so I deleted the errored out references. LokiTheLiar (talk) 02:03, 8 April 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Feminist views on transgender topics, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vox (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

June 2020

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages.

When editing Misplaced Pages, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Killing of George Floyd does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Misplaced Pages account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

Update to hidden comment

Thanks for this. I've been away from the article, has their been continual problems with this? If so, we could add an edit notice, see for example, Allahabad. To see the notice, click the Edit button to edit the article, and you'll see it. But that's usually not appropriate unless there's been a lot of problems, and discussion about it on the Talk page. Mathglot (talk) 07:29, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

Look at the history. Editing that line is basically the only thing that happens on that page. Loki (talk) 13:05, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

Stop following me

You showing up here after I edited here is an obvious case of being followed around. This is WP:HOUNDING. Stop following me. Crossroads 01:24, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm not following you. I'm following the list of RfCs, especially the society and culture ones. That you happen to edit in this topic area a lot is a coincidence; if you look at my edit history you'll see that I also comment on plenty of RfCs you're not involved with. Loki (talk) 01:34, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Also, hold up. Previous response was quick and on a phone, but now I can see what you actually linked, and I'm confused. You specifically invited people to edit that page on the main Talk:Trans_woman page! And you have to have known I've been watching that page, since you've interacted with me on that page multiple times going back a whole month. Loki (talk) 02:58, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

I know you were already at Trans woman; that's not the reason for complaint. The problem is following me when you see me there to a different topic you never had any interest in before. Crossroads 03:04, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

The reason I was at ACAB is that I watchlisted the list of society and culture RfCs, so I saw it as it was posted. Again, take a look at my edit history; there's plenty of RfCs I've commented in where you weren't present. Loki (talk) 05:41, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

Important Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

User:Girth Summit, I was aware that there was discussion ongoing about that line on Feminist views on transgender topics, that's why I reverted the edit. In the absence of consensus, status quo rules, and the status quo was with that line. The article before the discussion started had that line, and the previous editor had removed it while the discussion was ongoing, so I put it back. Loki (talk) 22:43, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
