== Your ANI evaluation ==

"OGBranniff appears generally be editing within behavioral guidelines".

Really?! Can you explain please. (Because, that's quite surprising to hear, especially from an Admin. Did you include comments on User talks, article talks, edit sums at AfDs and elsewhere? Would it be helpful if I provide diff examples what I'm referring?) If this user's behavior has been "generally within behavioral guidelines", then really, there's something very big that I do not understand regarding fundamental CIV and the espoused "WP collaborative editing environment". ] (]) 07:13, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

If you're an uninvolved admin and are here about an administrative action I performed that you disagree with, and it was not the result of some type of discussion close, feel free to change it to what ever you believe the correct outcome is without waiting for me to respond, though a courtesy notice is appreciated.

Courtesy note

I mentioned the comments you made last night at WT:BLOCK here: . That motion seems to be steamrollering through, but if you want to comment there, there's a slim chance it will do some good. --Floquenbeam (talk) 13:19, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

    • I ditto'ed you both there as well. Monty raised a good point. My fear is that we elevate the positions too much as well. Just as with CU, I can see rare situations where it makes sense to make an "OS block, don't reverse" type block, but these should be very rare, and we admin need enough information to understand the block since it has so little oversight.
