| == Question concerning the GizzyCatBella/Jacurek requested topic ban == | |||
| I have recently been finding the Eastern European topic ban you imposed very inconvenient, not because I want to write about Eastern European matters, but because I want to be able to write about French matters. Could you tell me if you would consider the edit (which updates a completely outdated entry about a French media outlet) boundary-testing? I ask because after I saw "Czech" on the screen, I realized that somebody could try to use it against me. I have which could be used against me due to the topic ban the sockpuppet requested. | |||
| Similarly, in recent days, I've done some work on the riots in France, and at one point I opened a discussion at RS/N and typed the word "Ukraine" (concerning militantwire.com) because that is the subject their EiC has most-often been cited on. I , because my intention is not to test boundaries, but to make positive contributions concerning the reliability of sources writing about the French riots. Then when someone asked me for further information, I had to in order to answer their question... Do you think it was necessary for me to self-revert either of these two contributions? Frankly this second-class citizenship is frustrating, as it requires me to be constantly self-censoring for no good reason and because it, parenthetically, allows folks to for good-faith edits. Has your thinking evolved concerning the topic ban that only three people thought was a good idea, one of whom is now indefinitely banned? Given the subsequent history, insofar as this was not a community-based decision, I imagine you are free to lift it yourself at any time and it would be to your credit were you to do so. -- ] <sup>] · ]</sup> 00:06, 11 July 2023 (UTC) | |||

I've noticed that you've blocked other ranges doing the same type of edits to pages like Swashbuckle (TV series) and Mutya Buena. It's definitely an IP sock, but I don't know the master - maybe you do? LilianaUwU 23:08, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Anna Freud
Hi ScottishFinnishRadish, if you have time would you mind looking at the recent edit history of the Anna Freud article with regard to disruptive editing? There is an editor making controversial additions (eg. that Anna was homophobic, anorexic, an occultist, not a psychologist) who refuses to accept any version of the page other than their own, despite the additions being disputed by two editors. The editor has been advised about consensus, BRD etc but doesn't seem to care. Harold the Sheep (talk) 07:14, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Promotional username person
Hi, sorry I didn't notice this before you blocked them (the account I reported at UAA, EasyWithAI), but it seems that they made an account after the filter warned them the first time?
<This account>, created 6 minutes after the filter was set off, made the exact same edit that the account I reported tried to: <diff>.
Figured I should let you know anyways, since the block was for spam, not just username representing website. – 2804:F14:80CB:CF01:78BA:3B7C:458:60B9 (talk) 23:29, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
- I left them a coi welcome. Looks like the edit was made before I blocked, so I'm going to assume good faith and assume that they read the username rules. If the spam keeps up after some warnings then it'll be time to block. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:35, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi
You may have already done this by the time you receive this message but that user you just blocked needs TPA removing as they are spamming their own talk page.

Talk Page Guidelines
Hello, per WP:COLLAPSENO, you may not collapse a conversation if any other users object. "Involved parties must not use these templates to end a discussion over the objections of other editors.". Please do not collapse discussion on talk pages if other users object. This is a sub-set of the WP:TALK guidelines. Denaar (talk) 22:33, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- I am an uninvolved administrator trying to keep a contentious RFC focused on the content at hand, so the closer will not have to read dozens of replies with quickly diminishing relation to the question under discussion. I'm unsure why you believe that I am an involved party. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:36, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- The discussion is absolutely focused on the content at hand! As I said in my edit summary reverting the collapse, the RfC is about whether the claims should be included in Wikivoice, and the collapsed discussion is about whether the sources at hand can support said claims in Wikivoice! Oktayey (talk) 22:56, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- About the time the UCOC, the Bible, Nazis and Jews are the thread rather than the topic at hand it's getting into the weeds. Further discussion among those lines will not constructive contribute to the outcome of the RFC. The arguments about bias in sources have already been made, so continuing them with increasingly unrelated metaphors among the same editors isn't going to build consensus, and is going to create increasingly more work for the closer. Hatting the section leaves the discussion there, and makes it clear that further travel down that path won't be productive. That is what hats are used for. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:17, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
- No matter how outlandish those examples may sound out of context, they demonstrated arguments all entirely focused on the usability of biased sources for supporting claims in Wikivoice—the topic of the RfC.
continuing them with increasingly unrelated metaphors among the same editors isn't going to build consensus
- The purpose of a public discussion board is to share ideas for anybody's use in forming their own opinion, not just the person being responded to—I suspect you're well-aware of this. By collapsing a discussion, especially with a comment that labels it as off-topic, its visibility to others is significantly diminished, inhibiting the fair development of consensus among the page's viewers.
- Of course, these arguments about the discussion's futility and the workload of the closer are all irrelevant due to the simple fact that the collapsed discussion was not off-topic. Oktayey (talk) 03:13, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
