Important alert

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 India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. 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.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. 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.

Deleted articles

The article on Anand Ranganathan ‎has been deleted. But at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Anand Ranganathan (2nd nomination), Star Mississippi said that if someone wants this to actively improve in Draft, happy to provide it. The article needed a lot more work. Why not post a message on at User talk:Star Mississippi asking him/her to move the content and edit history of the deleted page to Draft:Anand Ranganathan.-- Toddy1 (talk) 16:31, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

I did some work on the other article you created, but it still got deleted. I have asked Star Mississippi to put it into draft.-- Toddy1 (talk) 16:31, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

And it has been restored at Draft:Abhijit Iyer Mitra.-- Toddy1 (talk) 16:41, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Warning

This is the one warning you'll get for this, so please read and understand. The next time you connect a Misplaced Pages editor to an account or name off of Misplaced Pages when the editor has not disclosed this on-wiki you will be blocked. Such behavior is unacceptable. See WP:OUTING for the policy details. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:08, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Ok I'll be careful next time but if possible, could you please clarify what exactly went wrong? I said some users are encouraging people to vandalise the page I didn't name anyone until a edior himself accepted it. Mixmon (talk) 15:18, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

You linked an editor to a twitter account. Even if they didn't deny it after the fact, it's still WP:OUTING. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:22, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Yes that's what I was asking. Let me rephrase the question to be more objective.

Does WP:OUTING apply even when name of any particular editor is not mentioned (because there is no way to confirm twitter user and wiki user are same even if their usernames are same)? (Yes/No)

I didn't even ping any editor. One editor of the same name came and claimed he was the twitter user.Mixmon (talk) 15:39, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

If you're in a discussion with someone and you post a link to a twitter user with a very similar name to that editor you don't need to say the quiet part out loud for it to be outing. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 15:47, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Now that's subjective interpretation, anyway I'll be careful. Thanks for your help Mixmon (talk) 16:09, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Potential canvassing

Mixmon, I saw your note at CrusaderForTruth2023's talkpage and wanted to let you know about wikipedia's policies regarding canvassing, which the note may have brushed up against. Since this appears to be an isolated incidence (afaict), you shouldn't worry too much about that particular message but do keep WP:CANVASS in mind in the future. Cheers.

Ok, Thanks for informing. Mixmon (talk) 04:53, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
