noticeboard/Edit warring situation HEJ004A

Hello, I received a message from you where you accused me of Blanking an Administrators' noticeboard report about me, I think there is an error because I was making a report to a user who is eliminating my contributions just for bothering me, but what happened is that I sent the report 2 times accidentally and badly edited because I have not understood very well how to use the platform to report an edit warring, so what I did was erase everything I wrote in one of the duplicate reports thinking that I could delete it but apparently it was not So and I only won a warning that they can block me for no reason, apart from that there is no logic where you say Blanking an Administrators' noticeboard report about you (me), because what I tried to eliminate was a copy of a report I was making to another user, I was not self-report, I put this because you called me brazen and it is disrespectful without having seen how the situation is.

In the end I could not solve the main problem of the edit warring with the user who reported because in the end the report disappeared.

Template editor granted (permanent)

Your account has been granted the "templateeditor" user permission, allowing you to edit templates and modules that have been protected with template protection. It also allows you to bypass the title blacklist, giving you the ability to create and edit editnotices. Before you use this user right, please read Misplaced Pages:Template editor and make sure you understand its contents. In particular, you should read the section on wise template editing and the criteria for revocation.

You can use this user right to perform maintenance, answer edit requests, and make any other simple and generally uncontroversial edits to templates, modules, and edinotices. You can also use it to enact more complex or controversial edits, after those edits are first made to a test sandbox, and their technical reliability as well as their consensus among other informed editors has been established. If you are willing to process edit requests on templates and modules, keep in mind that you are taking responsibility to ensure the edits have consensus and are technically sound.

This user right gives you access to some of Misplaced Pages's most important templates and modules; it is critical that you edit them wisely and that you only make edits that are backed up by consensus. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

If you were granted the permission on a temporary basis you will need to re-apply for the permission a few days before it expires including in your request a permalink to the discussion where it was granted and a {{ping}} for the administrator who granted the permission. You can find the permalink in your rights log.

Happy template editing! RexxS (talk) 01:36, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Misplaced Pages.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Cease POV-pushing

You have a corrupted, perhaps intentionally mendacious, understanding of what Misplaced Pages's NPOV policy entails. Opinion articles have never been banished from its entries, and their use is allowed as long as it is made clear that it represents an individual perspective and not the facts themselves. But seeing your behavior in the entry's talk-page, where you're railing against any acknowledgement of Ed Schultz's firing from MSNBC, an extremely notable fact and very relevant to the entry's subject, shows what you're all about. You don't care about notability, you care about pushing a pro-corporate media POV.Rafe87 (talk) 20:26, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
