My mind's gone completely blank and I cant think what to put in this header.

| For all your work cutting down the size of the Gamergate controversy article and resolving talk page disputes. Bosstopher (talk) 17:22, 17 January 2015 (UTC) |
How very thoughtful! --TS 04:51, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Hatting/unhatting
This is just a notification that the hatting you recently did is here. Not interested in debating it here, not seeking any sanctions against you. Thargor Orlando (talk) 18:41, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
- No offence taken. You're doing the right thing by taking it to the enforcement page. Cheers. --TS 20:53, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
As requested
Reminding me how much I miss the writings Iain Banks. Since you asked for a templating.
In all seriousness keep up the good work, you're very much appreciated. — Strongjam (talk) 00:45, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you. I'll bear that in mind next time I am tempted by the siren call of the Great Enfolded. --TS 00:51, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
Appreciated!
Thanks for tagging me! I was actually just wondering if I should add the template to my own page to indicate good-faith awareness of the contentious circumstances on and sanctions covering the gamergate mess, but I was genuinely not entirely sure if it would "count", or if the template has to be administrator-applied, or something similar. Sappow (talk) 01:38, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
- I think self-tagging would have counted, because it's only to establish that the editor is aware of the circumstances that apply to their edits in a certain area.
- I tagged one editor whose activities looked suspicious but then noticed that there were a few others who looked new to me (I only recently stopped editing in that topic) so I ended up tagging a few newcomers. --TS 02:01, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
Kudos...
Hi Tony Sidaway, Apologies for the interruption. I thought that this I deliberately stepped back a few months ago to give new editors a chance
here was worthy of recognition. I think it's the kind of attitude that Misplaced Pages could use more of; on all sides of all disputes. - Ryk72 12:28, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
- It's my long established practice. In my view the Gamergate fuss bears certain parallels to the "global warming hoax" nonsense that immediately followed the theft of emails from CRU in East Anglia. So you will not be surprised to hear that I first consciously exercised this disengagement strategy after a brief period of intensive involvement at the article on that topic. Others who failed to disengage didn't have a very happy time, irrespective of their stance on the issues. --TS 18:05, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
Fair enough
Wasn't intended as an attack but point taken. freshacconci talk to me 20:13, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
- I had intended to smooth things over on your user talk page, but real life intervened. Thanks for taking it so well. --TS 00:02, 10 June 2015 (UTC)
Could you review?
Tony, thanks for writing the Arb Rep. I've copyedited it. Please take a look and revert or otherwise change anything you don't like. Tony (talk) 13:27, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks. You've made good changes to improve readability, as well as style fixes. It moves closer to my goal of a readable and fair summary of a very delicate case. --TS 13:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
2015 attack on Dallas police has been nominated for Did You Know
 | Hello, Tony Sidaway. 2015 attack on Dallas police, an article you either created or significantly contributed to, has been nominated to appear on Misplaced Pages's Main Page as part of Did you know . You can see the hook and the discussion here. You are welcome to participate! Thank you. APersonBot (talk!) 14:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

A brief personal note
Hi, Tony, just wanted to stop by and say that although I have often disagreed with you I very much appreciate the deliberate and measured way you approach your editing. Misplaced Pages could use more like you. -Starke Hathaway (talk) 00:09, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
A Grand Statement
"An encyclopaedia is not amoral. It either supports evil through complacency or it embodies an overall force for good by refusing to flinch from the delineation of all, both evil and good. When we flinch and turn a blind eye to violent attempts to subvert our great work, then we face the true test.” -- Tony Sidaway

Comment requested
There is now a concrete proposal on Talk:Autonomous spaceport drone ship re article scope. It is in line with the sentiments of several editors in the (rather confusing) discussion earlier on that same Talk page, but the earlier discussion had both a different proposed change as well as comments that led well beyond discussion of just the scope of this single article.
Would appreciate it if you might consider weighing in, since the first operational use of the new ASDS is in just a few days, on 28 June. Cheers. N2e (talk) 16:02, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks. As I have no particularly strung opinions on the matter I'll leave the discussion there. --TS 19:10, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
