== Your warning ==

Why did you leave [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:DoRD&diff=940612161&oldid=938671012 this warning] on an experienced user's Talk page? I see no justification for it whatsoever.--[[User:Bbb23|Bbb23]] ([[User talk:Bbb23|talk]]) 16:25, 13 February 2020 (UTC)

:It was regarding [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=XFL_(2020)&diff=940596376&oldid=940586620 this edit]. Didn't see any good reason for an undo. [[User:Can I Log In|Can I Log In]] ([[User talk:Can I Log In#top|talk]]) 01:19, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

::Thanks, Bbb. No good reason? Did you not read my edit summary ({{tq|while USA Today may not be sports-centric, a reference to CBS Sports was also removed}}), which was in response to the [[special:diff/940586620|previous edit]] ({{tq|USA Today is not a sports-centric news site}})? The removal of a whole paragraph, only half of which was justified by the previous user's edit summary, was my reason for undoing it.
::Here's a tip for the future: If you have questions about a user's edit, especially a user who has been around {{tooltip|1=a while|2=I've been editing since 2005}}, it's typically better to just ask them about it on their talk page. Leaving a warning template like the one you left me is typically [[wp:DTTR|frowned upon]]. —[[User:DoRD|DoRD]] ([[User talk:DoRD|talk]]) 01:40, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi Can I Log In, I've noticed you doing a lot of RCP and undoing vandalism. Given this, you may want to use some tools, such as [[WP:TW|twinkle]].

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Impeachment trial of Donald Trump]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Georgia]] ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Impeachment_trial_of_Donald_Trump check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Impeachment_trial_of_Donald_Trump?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

== Template talk:Campaignbox Russian intervention in the Syrian Civil War ==

Hi - just a small heads up; when you leave a final reply to a semi-protected edit request, in the {{t|edit semi-protected}} template change the parameter <code>|answered=no</code> to <code>|answered=yes</code>  otherwise the request stays live.  If an editor is not happy, they can always reactivate the request, but by marking the response yes, it is removed from [[:Category:Wikipedia_semi-protected_edit_requests#Pages_in_Category|the backlog of work]]. Regards--[[User:Goldsztajn|Goldsztajn]] ([[User talk:Goldsztajn|talk]]) 21:22, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
:{{replyto|Goldsztajn}} Got it. I just normally have left that to the requester. So even after ''any'' response like not done, partly done, I still mark a yes? I'll assume I do. <small>To reply, copy and paste this: <code><nowiki>{{SUBST:replyto|</nowiki><nowiki>[[User:Can I Log In|</nowiki>[[User:Can I Log In|<big>Can I Log In</big>]]]]}}</code> (<nowiki>[[User talk|</nowiki>[[User talk:Can I Log In|<big>talk</big>]]]])</small> 23:35, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
::{{u|Can I Log In}}: The editor handling the request is the one who will mark as answered; and yes, whatever reply you give, it needs to be changed because this is what removes it from the work queue. However, in terms of ''when'' you mark as answered, it's a case by case basis - the point of answering "yes" is that one is closing the request.  It might be that a simple clarification can make the edit possible, so you could politely {{t|ping}} the editor to make some changes, leaving the answered parameter as "no"...and wait.  They either clarify and you make the edit and close, they don't clarify in an appropriate way, so you refuse the edit and close (or ask again) or they don't respond within a reasonable time, so you close. I would also say, IMHO, edit-protected requests are usually (but not always) from inexperienced editors, so should be treated gently and assisted (in the case of IP requests it is possible these can come from long-standing experienced editors so should also be treated with respect).  It should not be treated as a legal process, if the intention of the editor is clear and the request is reasonable and clearly within wikipedia policy, go ahead and make the change. I saw another [[Talk:Shiv_Sena|one of your semi-edit request responses here]], which I subsequently worked on - personally, I would say, you did not handle that incorrectly, but it was a very by the book response; the request was actually an important one given the proposed text, was already mentioned within the lead of the article and only took a minute or so to verify via references in the linked articles.

== flotsam and jetsam in (recent) signature ==

Hi CILI,

[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Cabayi&diff=prev&oldid=943554216 here] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_bureaucratship/SilkTork&diff=prev&oldid=943627330 here] you added <nowiki>NOINDEX and NEWSECTIONLINK</nowiki> when you signed.  I think there's something wrong with your signature.  I've removed it from those two places, but could you look at the code for your sig when you get back?  --[[User:Floquenbeam|Floquenbeam]] ([[User talk:Floquenbeam|talk]]) 03:31, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
:Derpy derp that now has been fixed. <small><small><small>To reply, copy and paste this: <code><nowiki>{{SUBST:replyto|</nowiki><nowiki>[[User:Can I Log In|</nowiki>[[User:Can I Log In|<big><big><big>Can I Log In</big></big></big>]]<nowiki>]]}}</nowiki></code> <nowiki>[[User talk|</nowiki>[[User talk:Can I Log In|<big><big><big>(talk)</big></big></big>]]]]</small></small></small> 04:40, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
::<strong class="error">Error in [[Template:Reply to]]: Input contains forbidden characters.</strong> That fixed that particular problem, but if you're open to unsolicited advice, that's a pretty confusing signature.  Plus, as you can see, it's incorrect; you '''can't''' just copy/paste what you're saying to copy/paste, it gives a template error.  I think everybody here knows how to ping; they probably don't need instructions inside your sig. --[[User:Floquenbeam|Floquenbeam]] ([[User talk:Floquenbeam|talk]]) 17:08, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
:::Well, [[WP:SIGAPP]] is policy: {{tq|Avoid markup such as {{Tag|big|o}} [...] this is likely to disrupt the way that surrounding text displays}}. And it does. Thrice bigs, even moreso.

*Hi. I dont want to pile-up on the advices/suggestions, or gang-up on you; but I [[special:diff/943595359|was here earlier]] regarding the incorrect directions to ping in the signature. I was vague, and was going to follow-up later, but couldnt (apologies for that). So I feel sort of necessary to comment again. The <code><nowiki>{{reply to}}</nowiki></code> doesnt need to be substituted. The current mark-up/code of the signature also has a few problems like observed above, and on RfA talk page where it has been humorously labelled as sig with "steroid abuse". Simply put: Fancy signatures are totally okay, having messages is okay. But blinking signatures, extra big, difficult to read (for people with vision issues), distracting signatures, are a no-no. Also, some particular codes, and substitutions are also bad on technical levels. I would recommend you to decrease the size of signature, the code looks good to me. See you around :) —usernamekiran [[User talk:usernamekiran|(talk)]] 07:41, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
*Also, your abusing the subst function by substing [[User:Can I Log In/signature]] to give yourself a 273-character signature is a straightforward violation of [[WP:SIGLEN]]. (Given your "[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User:Can_I_Log_In/signature&oldid=943468037 custom length signature]" edit summary, you're obviously well aware that you're intentionally being disruptive, not accidentally slipping over the limit.) Knock it off.&nbsp;&#8209;&nbsp;[[User:Iridescent|Iridescent]] 16:10, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

== Your signature again ==

Nobody is likely to take much notice of you if you don't fix this ''now''. Don't use large text, and don't order others to reply to you in a particular way. If you don't know how to fix those things then simply revert to the default signature. [[User:Phil Bridger|Phil Bridger]] ([[User talk:Phil Bridger|talk]]) 19:30, 22 March 2020 (UTC)

Your editing here is disruptive. If three editors have undone your faux close of the RfA, that should be an indicator to stop.

== I answered your question after my request on List of fandom names talk page ==

Hi. I am new here, not familiar with all that coded environment, not sure how to do requests and how to answer to editors who reviewed my request. So I thought may be I can answer you here? Sorry if it’s the wrong way to answer. I posted a request to include a fandom of Dimash Qudaibergen (he calls us “Dears” and we are very proud of this name and celebrate a Dears Day every January 30) in a list, but the answer of the first editor was that the reference I presented is not enough. The post you’ve read was my answer to that - I presented a list of links proving more my point (my original post is the one above if you take a look at the list of requests). I am not sure, is it enough or not. And what more of the proof may be than if people wear that word on their heads and hearts on his concerts, use it while communicating (just check the #dears), name their fan clubs that way? Sorry again, if I do it wrong, maybe you could help me do it right? Thank you in advance.[[User:Vera Kapinos|Vera Kapinos]] ([[User talk:Vera Kapinos|talk]]) 05:53, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Just a note that I've reverted your RfC close [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Template_talk:2019%E2%80%9320_coronavirus_pandemic&type=revision&diff=953411234&oldid=953307170&diffmode=source here], as you don't appear to be taking it seriously, and you're just counting votes.

::First of all, you listed the numbers at the top, as if that was somehow the determining factor for how the RfC was to be closed. Secondly, your summaries of the arguments were rather dismissive of the time and effort people put into constructing them. It's fine to summarize arguments, but they must be respectful. Thirdly, what's with that weird writing at the end with a mix of upper- and lowercase letters? Is that a joke? Fourthly, the fact that I have to explain this to you in such detail is ''prima facie'' evidence that you don't have enough experience to close RfCs yet. Hence my recommendation that you leave it for someone else to close. I hope this helps. – [[User:Bradv|<span style="color:#333">'''brad''v'''''</span>]][[User talk:Bradv|<span style="color:transparent;text-shadow:0 0 0 red;font-size:80%">🍁</span>]] 18:34, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
:::If I closed it merely by a vote, then it would be "Vote count: (1/2/3) Option C" and no other statements. Clearly I didn't close it by the plain vote. For the summary of the arguments, nearly all of the Option A !votes had to do with "useful". So in a short summary, it was useful. Option B !votes were to move out of template space so readers wouldn't get confused between an article and a template. Option C, templates shouldn't be treated as articles. I'm not sure what was dismissive and disrespectful. The rest is irrelevant, but '''what matters how I addressed the consensus'''. <br>I appreciate constructive criticism and feedback, but I also think your closing revert was not warranted since nothing seemed excessively wrong.

::::Hey Can I Log In, I appreciate you trying to help. I can tell that you're doing your best to contribute in the ways that you find interesting, and I'm glad you're working on. I remember how excited I was to work in certain administrative areas when I first started editing as well. This is a discussion that would be difficult for anyone to close; I've been an active editor for well over half a decade now, and it would take me several hours of reading, contemplation, and writing to close this discussion. I hope you understand why other editors here are disappointed that you've closed this discussion, and in the manner that you have. Your summaries of the positions of the supporters of the three options were not representative of the actual opinions voiced, and can be perceived as disrespectful. Your closure did not demonstrate an understanding of the issues at play. You did not substantively address the discussion other than declaring simply that {{tq|1=The main consensus here is to move them out of template space and preserve it}}. If you brought this for review at an administrative noticeboard, I wouldn't fancy your chances. And since you don't seem to be aware of that, I really don't think you should be closing discussions or working in similar areas for the time being. I don't mean that as criticism; it takes anyone a ''long'' time (years and years) to understand the norms and culture critical to engaging well in these areas.

:{{od|:::::::::::}}Speaking as the editor who reverted that change (though actually I've had your page on my watchlist for a while, ever since I wrote you a note about your April Fool's Day activities): when an editor does something problematic, it's pretty standard procedure to look at that user's recent contributions to see if they're being disruptive. And please don't deflect by saying it's "inaccurate": it's not your userpage, and unless you're reverting vandalism or you know the editor sufficiently well that you are sure that they won't have a problem with your edits, you should never touch someone else's userpage. Period.
:
:Now, speaking as a fellow editor who jumped into the deep end of the wiki a little too early: "good faith" doesn't mean "correct" and doesn't excuse you from getting a boot for messing up. If someone significantly more experienced than you is telling you that you did something wrong, don't start a policy argument, don't assume that everyone's out to get you, just stop. If you don't understand what the problem is, ask, but think about your phrasing - don't say "you're wrong because of policy X," say "I thought policy X said that I was supposed to do Y, could you explain why Y was wrong?"

== Copy edit of Lori Loughlin ==

Providing some feedback on your copy edit of [[Lori Loughlin]]:
*Starting in the infobox and throughout the article you changed en dashes to the rarely used figure dash (‒).  I'm not sure what that was about.  An en-dash is the appropriate character for indicating a range (in the majority of uses) and later as a spaced en-dash to indicate a break in thought.  See [[MOS:DASH]] for more information.  The GOCE expects completed copy edits to be correct for punctuation, so it is important to understand Wikipedia's style rules for dashes and hyphens.  (These should all be changed back to en dashes and hyphens for the hyphenated surnames.)
*You changed {{tq|She has one younger brother}} &rarr; {{tq|Loughlin has one younger brother}}.  While [[MOS:SURNAME]] recommends using surnames for tone, we should be careful when it might be confusing.  That paragraph is talking about her family, where everyone shares the surname ''Loughlin''.  I personally think that ''she'' was a shade less confusing in the flow of the passage, but it's a fairly minor point.  In cases like this it might be worth considering a total rephrase.
*{{tq|Loughlin attended Oaks School #3}}  We don't like using the numero characer (#) which is not universally understood to mean "number" and which has the possibility of being misinterpreted as markup code ([[MOS:NUMERO]]).  Again, this is a matter of punctuation and should be addressed.  Since it has a generic use and is not part of a title, change it to {{Abbr|No.|number}}
*You linked [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]].  Please consider carefully what to link based on what is likely to be useful to the reader.  Here, I would consider this to be [[WP:OVERLINKING]] because a couple words later the article links ''[[The Edge of Night]]'' which is more likely to be of interest to the reader. That article links to ABC in its lead, so the reader can get to the ABC article easily enough if they do happen to be interested in that.  It is usually more useful to link to specific targets, which tend to have the more general targets linked in their leads (it's easier to navigate from a specific topic to a general topic than vice-versa)
*{{tq|From 1983 to 1988, Loughlin appeared in a number of feature films and television guest spots.}}  You changed number &rarr; many.  Both terms are vague.  Her filmography, though it may not be complete, lists six movie and nine television appearances.  So I'd probably use "more than a dozen".
*{{tq|From 1988 to 1995, Loughlin was cast in the ABC sitcom ''[[Full House]]'' as [[Rebecca Donaldson]], [[Danny Tanner]]'s ([[Bob Saget]]) co-host, and later, [[Jesse Katsopolis]]' ([[John Stamos]]) wife.}}  Way too much overlinking there, and I don't know why all that context is necessary.  I'd trim everything after the second comma.
**Oh, it should be [[Jesse Katsopolis]]'s ([[MOS:POSS]]).  I missed that the first time, it's easy to miss punctuation around references and wikilinks, so try to pay attention in those places.
*You changed {{tq|Initially set for a six-episode arc}} &rarr; {{tq|She was initially set for a six-episode arc}} which changes the subject from her appearance to the actor herself. I feel that a rephrase would be in order, changing the verb to something clearer.
*{{tq|From 2004 to 2005, Loughlin co-created, produced, and starred in}} you added the [[serial comma]] before ''and''.  If you decide that this suits the style of the article, please make sure to apply it consistently throughout the article (there is a place in the lead missing a serial comma).
*I noticed that at the end of the last paragraph, you moved a reference into a citation template but did not preserve all of the parameter data.
* In the lead, you changed {{tq|charged with conspiracy to commit [[mail and wire fraud|mail fraud]] and [[honest services mail fraud]]}} &rarr; {{tq|charged with conspiracy to commit [[honest services mail fraud]]}}.  I agree that the lead should be a summary and specifying all the charges there isn't necessary.  However, the individual charges don't seem to be given in the bribery scandal section, and by removing them from the lead you're removing them from the article altogether.  This is really the fault of the editors who were previously working on the article, who added to the lead instead of adding to the body.  Nonetheless, copy editors should be cautious about this when removing content.  I feel that the charges could be added near the beginning of the second paragraph of the bribery scandal section (with citation, the NBC one will do), and all the charges be summarized in the lead (more charges were added in October 2019) perhaps "charged with fraud- and bribery-related offences" or similar.
*{{tq|put their [[Aspen, Colorado]] home on sale}} Needs a comma after ''Colorado'' ([[MOS:GEOCOMMA]]). This is easy to miss because of the wikilink brackets, so try to watch in those places.
Other notes:
*The lead could probably use a rewrite.  The first paragraph is too "listy" and not a proper summary/introduction for the article.  Also, if you set the list aside, it gives too much prominence to the recent charges which makes it unbalanced.
*The bribery scandal section gets a bit repetitive, and could probably use a rewrite.  However, it's a breaking-news thing which is going to keep getting updated, and may not be worth spending a lot of time on it until it stabilizes.

I know some of this is pretty picky, but copy editing is about paying attention to these little details.  I hope you take this constructively.  I think you overall made improvements to the article and are on the right track, but I'd appreciate it if you went back and fixed the punctuation and a couple other things.  Please ping me if you have any questions. – [[User:Reidgreg|Reidgreg]] ([[User talk:Reidgreg|talk]]) 13:11, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

== on my JABBERWOKY edits ==

I tried to find a place to message you dumb editors but it is impossible to find. So instead I just put the message in the page knowing you editors would get it.

Honestly, wikipedia has become a top heavy dictatorship of "don't touch our stuff." I have had first hand knowledge content I offered sometime back removed despite knowing more about the subject than any person alive (Towers in Canada).

When I visited the Jabberwoky page and saw the cacophony of ridiculous and pathetic over editing, clearly by the editors, with ZERO evidence of the poem, I knew Wikipedia was doomed instantly.

I used to love visiting Wikipedia, but the editors, as can be very clearly seen on the Jabberwoky page, have become the uber-bureaucratic garbage that Wikipedia was set up to address as being destructive to Encyclopedic knowledge. I have no idea what happened to Wikipedia, but it is getting worse everyday and is now becoming the new Yahoo search Engine. 

So sad. P.S. Where the fuck is the Jabberwoky Poem and a fucking link where I just send you schmucks a message over such things???

Thank you for your time, and I hope you are all safe and healthy during this terrible pandemic. The above is nothing personal, seriously, I just want to get your attention over this terrible example of a Wiki page that's inexplicable. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/174.2.29.222|174.2.29.222]] ([[User talk:174.2.29.222#top|talk]]) 14:44, May 22, 2020 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Xsign -->

== My recent edits on the impeachment of Donald Trump ==

Hello. I wanted to post a coment here to explain myself in relation to the matter in question. For an extended period, one editor (whose edits I reverted most recently) repeatedly introduced the wording about a bipartisan impeachment, and was repeatedly reverted by other users when they continued to add that content. I thought I had remembered a consensus decision defining bipartisan support for any measure as coming into play when multiple people from the opposing party crossed the aisle, which did not apply to the impeachment matter, since only one senator (Mitt Romney from Utah) crossed the aisle to vote with the Democrats on one of the two charges. I accordingly reverted those edits again, as had been done in the past, which I believed was the correct thing to do. When my latest revert was in turn reverted, the reasoning given was that the consensus that I had remembered as being established might have never actually occurred. If that is indeed correct, I was in error, and I was correctly called on it. I never meant to violate any rules, if that is indeed what happened here. I have edited here on Wikipedia in various capacities for around 14 years, and my record speaks for itself, including my cooperation with other editors, and agreeing to and upholding consensus when that is established. My intention was not to break the rules here, but merely to preserve the content that I believed was protected by consensus. I am more than willing to recognize that I may have been mistaken on this matter, and if I acted inappropriately or improperly, that's on me. But I hope it is understood that I have always done my best to [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]] and to support Wikipedia policies and consensus decisions, even if at times I don't agree with those 100%. With all that noted, please feel free to let me know, through replying here on your page, or through a comment on my talk page, if you need more information from me on that. Thanks, and again, my apologies if I acted imprudently or against policy in this matter. --[[User:Jgstokes|Jgstokes]] ([[User talk:Jgstokes|talk]]) 21:42, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

== Seriousness vs. fun ==

Hi {{u|Can I Log In}},

If I understand correctly, you enjoy editing and modifying preferences. I'm happy to see that you enjoy this, but – when having a look at a report at [[WP:UAA]] about [[User talk:Qwertyuioppoiuytrewqmnbhagdidnegxkfnrhdicnrnebjcjdmd]] – I have noticed two things:

* The edit summary generated by Twinkle ends in "TW" by default, and I believe that two considerations led to this decision: Keeping it short, as it's not that relevant and more an automatic little tag. And keeping it serious, not "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" when reverting changes and warning users, to avoid confusion or, in the worst case, making people feel mocked.
* Signatures are primarily meant to display who has written a message, and when. Signatures should probably not contain links to interface pages (such as the login page, as interestingly someone has already complained above) or template pages. If the purpose of linking {{tl|reply to}} in your signature is educating those who read it about the template usage, I'd like to propose a different approach: There are, by default, two links in your signature. One to your user page, and one to your talk page. If you keep both pages readable, concise and with an easy link to [[Special:NewSection/User talk:Can I Log In]], there is no need for detailed instructions. I'm not sure how a disabled wikibreak switch is important to any reader, I'd say {{tl|talkheader}} is unnecessarily complicated and detailed, especially with its optional "disclaimer" enabled, and any distinction between registered users and IP editors can be done automatically (see the source code of my talk page). I see a wall of irrelevant text above the only sentence needed to make it easy to reply: "Please click here to leave me a new message." So simple. Add a similarly clearly visible link to your user page, and you suddenly have no need for complicated instructions and a weird signature anymore.

Best regards,<br>[[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 22:47, 9 June 2020 (UTC)
:Regarding the concern about by huge talk page lead, considering that I infrequently get new messages, it'll probably be shortened, though I also infrequently edit my user page(s). <span style="color:#666666">&#123;&#123;[[Template:replyto|reply&nbsp;to]]&#124;[[User:Can I Log In|Can&nbsp;I&nbsp;Log&nbsp;In]]&#125;&#125;</span>'s&nbsp;[[User talk:Can I Log In|talk]]&nbsp;page! 23:57, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

::::{{u|Can I Log In}}, thank you very much. It may be obvious, but I have a feeling I should mention that this change has happened five minutes <em>after</em> my message, after twelve hours of inactivity. Thus I'm not entirely sure how "I would have seen" this change before requesting it.
::::May I kindly ask you to reconsider the confusing signature link as well? You deal a lot with newcomers, and I find it hard to understand why you would complicate their first steps with unnecessary confusion. The signature was what brought me here in the first place; the Twinkle summary is something I noticed after having a look at the recent contributions. That said, I may not be the ideal person to complain about signatures, as my opinion about fancy signatures is rather extreme ([[WP:SIGRANT]]). I recommend that, if anyone (!) else, be it a newbie or an administrator, complains about your signature in the future, you finally change it without further discussion.

== Protected edit request on MediaWiki talk:Gadgets-definition ==

Hi! As far as I know, [[MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]] can be edited only by interface administrators—its title doesn’t end with .css or .js, but its content controls what CSS/JS is executed for whom, so it’s a risky page as well. For example, I’m an admin on huwikisource, yet I can’t edit [[s:hu:MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition]], I get the same error message as on actual CSS/JS pages.

== decline of request for article on Parvaneh Pourshariati ==

Dear Can-I-Log-In

I am new to WikiPedia editing, and I just want to understand why my proposed article in Wikipedia:Requested articles/Biography/By profession/Historians on "Parvaneh Pourshariati" was marked as "not notable"by you at  04:50, 13 June 2020. I assumed since the article exists in Persian Wikipedia (Farsi), it would have passed the notability test. What other documentation should I provide to make the item "notable"? The person in question is considered as one of the leading figures in the US in the study of Early Islam and late antique Iran.

:The general criteria for [[WP:N|notability]] is as quoted from [[WP:GNG]]. {{tq2|If a topic has received {{strong|significant coverage}} in {{strong|[[WP:reliable sources|reliable sources]]}} that are {{strong|[[WP:Independent sources|independent]] of the subject}}, it is {{strong|presumed}} to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list.}}

Wikipedia articles and other user-generated content are not [[WP:RS|''reliable sources'']] since anyone can change them. You cited a website to CUNY ([http://websupport1.citytech.cuny.edu/faculty/ppourshariati/], which is not ''independent'' of the subject. Last of all, you cited an [https://www.amazon.com/Decline-Fall-Sasanian-Empire-Sasanian-Parthian/dp/1784537470 Amazon item], which does not show ''significant coverage'', not just passing a mention.
:So there you go, it doesn't pass [[WP:GNG]]. Even then, it would have to pass [[WP:ANYBIO]] or [[WP:AUTHOR]].

== article [[:Leo van de Pas]] ==
Following extensive improvement work, please can you reconsider your notability and add cit tags on the above article, or engage in the Talk Page  [[User:Icairns 2|Icairns 2]] ([[User talk:Icairns 2|talk]]) 08:50, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
:So here is what I think of it now.
:*'''[[Wikipedia:Content assessment|Article assessment]]'''&mdash;I have speedy reassessed it to Start-Class since that is definitely not a stub.
:*'''[[WP:N|Notability]]'''&mdash;I think that the article meeting [[WP:GNG]] or [[WP:ANYBIO]] is borderline, and has the possibility of being [[WP:DRAFTIFY|draftified]]. The article having been [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=patrol&user=&page=Leo_van_de_Pas&wpdate=&tagfilter=&subtype= marked as reviewed] by a [[WP:NPP|new page patroller]], it can stay. Like I said, notability is borderline which brings me to my next point.
:*'''[[WP:RS|Reliable sources]]'''&mdash;The sources you normally want to go after are ''independent, secondary'' sources. I see a lot of sources from https://genealogics.org; it is associated with oh guess what? The subject of the article [[Leo van de Pas]]. Not an independent source. I also see some [[WP:RSSELF|self-publsihed sources]]. Unless it came form the subject itself, You normally don't want to use self-published sources, <small>especially on a [[WP:BLP|biography of living persons]]</small>. The sources you have used are not [[WP:DEPRECATED|deprecated]]; you can still use them; it is just preferred that you use other sources when possible.
:So that is my feedback on the article; it can stay as it is, and you can definitely expand it. Maybe on day you can get it to [[WP:FA|featured article]].

== Just a bit of a word ==

Just as a bit of a word of advice, sometimes you come on quite strong and interact with others in a way that I would describe as rude, whether intentional or not. As a few examples: 
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:WikiProject_Guild_of_Copy_Editors/Blitzes/June_2020&diff=prev&oldid=963474488 all caps calling people crappy isn't ideal] 
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)&diff=prev&oldid=963600581 hatting a section you yourself are commenting in] with the edit summary "welcome to Hell" and a reply lecturing people on grammar is basically the epitomey of rudeness. In most English-speaking countries, it is considered very rude to correct the grammar of adults, even if it is wrong, because you correct the grammar of children. 
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)&diff=prev&oldid=963400110 All caps is considered yelling on the internet]. Additionally, lecturing people who have been here significantly longer than you on how Wikipedia works is generally considered bad form. [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship&diff=next&oldid=1035749 Deb was the second RfA on the RfA page]. While you are certainly free to disagree with people, both in real life and on Wikipedia people lecturing people who reasonably know what you're telling them about tends to really annoy people.
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard&diff=prev&oldid=960429855 Lecturing an admin on BITE] when they are asking a valid question on how to deal with things.
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/CaptainEek&diff=prev&oldid=955417570 This comment to Ritchie333] telling him not to assume people were male. This is a pretty normal thing based on the historical usage of he as the neutral pronoun in English, and in some English-speaking regions it continues to be the norm. There's no reason for the assumption of bad faith and lecturing here. 
*[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=prev&oldid=952810100#User:Can_I_Log_In_use_of_AWB_without_authorization The general dismissive attitude in this thread] and combativeness towards people expressing legitimate concerns.
Anyway, I guess that this is a warning to tone down your approach towards people. I guess its a [[WP:CIVIL]] issue, but really it's [[m:Don't be a jerk]]. This type of minor things that really annoy people build up over time, and can lead to sanctions. [[User:TonyBallioni|TonyBallioni]] ([[User talk:TonyBallioni|talk]]) 19:57, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

== Template changes ==

Hi Can I Log In,

sorry, it's me again, but I promise this is a coincidence, caused by my surprised look at [[Special:Diff/964082465]], a broken Twinkle ANI notification.

I'm concerned about two things:

* The lack of actual testing during, or at least after, the template changes [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/Can_I_Log_In&offset=20200622200000&limit=50&target=Can+I+Log+In]
* Reverting to an own revision after a revert, in the template namespace ([[Special:Diff/964081532]]).

Best regards,<br>[[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 14:06, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
:PS, actually, the testing was probably fine; the lack of a signature just caused the problem to go unnoticed. No worries about that, I think, then. I'm out. [[File:Face-smile.svg|18px|link=|alt=🙂]] Especially as this is about a signature. Heh. [[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 14:08, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
::Thanks for the quick fix and test :) No worries from my side anymore. All good. [[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 14:10, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
::Oh about the revert, I practice [[WP:1RR|1RR]]. If you think your intentions were misunderstood, revert it back. Now to remember no new lines for <code><nowiki><noinclude>{{documentation}}</noinclude></nowiki></code>. Otherwise, it causes whitespace. <span style="color:#666666">&#123;&#123;[[Template:replyto|<small>reply&nbsp;to</small>]]&#124;[[User:Can I Log In|Can&nbsp;I&nbsp;Log&nbsp;In]]&#125;&#125;</span>'s&nbsp;[[User talk:Can I Log In|talk]]&nbsp;page! 14:10, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
:::Regarding the edit request template: Ah, well, my personal interpretation of 1RR is [[WP:BRD]]. My personal interpretation is "You're always welcome to revert after a bold edit, and then discussion should happen". But after a bold edit was reverted, I personally wouldn't revert back to my revision. If 1RR is purely about reverts, perhaps one can say that boldly overwriting an entire template is a revert itself, somehow. A similar interpretation can be found at [[WP:WHEEL]], but that only applies to administrative actions. Hmm. Well. It was re-reverted by bradv now anyway. I just noticed it when checking if there had been testing.
:::Regarding my revert, I have no opinion about this other than "as long as it works, everything is fine". So no worries, really. All the best. [[User:ToBeFree|~ ToBeFree]] ([[User talk:ToBeFree|talk]]) 14:21, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

:*'''[[Special:Diff/965666453|Spacing and reference footnotes]]'''&mdash;I hate it when I see this, but it's very easy to clean up. You want to have no space before a reference footnote, and a space after.

You tagged [[Draft:Legal attorney]] for G12 deletion without specifying what it copied. I found the source at legalmatch.com article what-is-an-attorney-at-law.html, but that was something ''you'' should have done before tagging with for G12.

Please do '''not''' courtesy blank copyvio. It prevents the tools built into {{tl|db-copyvio}} from assessing the copyvio, and the copyvio still remains in the article's history to be cleaned up.

== Responding to pings ==

Responding to pings and responding to talk page messages are not quite the same thing. So, in my view [[User_talk:Jackmcbarn/editProtectedHelper#Old_known_inssues]] does not fall with-in the safe harbor of your conditional unban. Resuming discussions, especially one where you displayed the attitude with Izno that was part of what led me to blocking you in the first place, is not a loophole or with-in the spirit of the restriction. The restriction reads {{tqq|Exceptions to this will be narrowly construed and need to directly involve content work.}} for a reason. So if someone came here to moot some Wikipedia policy with you that doesn't qualify under "reply to talk page messages" (though you could leave a polite response explaining why you aren't engaging in the conversation rather than just ignoring them). I think you've been honoring both the letter and the spirit of the restriction so far so I'm not blocking but please keep the literal wording and my general comment about honoring the spirit of the restriction in mind when edge cases arise or ask before doing it.

::{{u|Can I Log In}}, thanks for asking. I'm trying to figure out why these feel different for me than doing PCR and what I think it boils down to PCR is about vandalism recognition which was an area of concern while COI/UPE is as much about writing (though also verification). So bottom line is go ahead and give those requests a go. [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] ([[User_talk:Barkeep49|talk]]) 02:10, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
:::Almost every request at [[WP:PERM/PCR]] is about anti-vandalism, the main purpose of pending changes; I see it as a "fact-check this edit". You appear to be permit me to review the 2 COI edit requests, which I will review sometime tomorrow. Almost [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&offset=&limit=500&target=Can+I+Log+In&namespace=1 ALL of my talk namespace edits] are reviewing protected and COI edit request.

[[User:Can I Log In|Can I Log In]] ([[User talk:Can I Log In|talk]]) 02:33, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
::::{{u|Can I Log In}}, maybe I wasn't clear - wouldn't surprise me because my thinking was a bit muddled on this. At first blush PCR and COI edit requests do seem to be equivalent processes. But I had very different reactions to each. And my reason ultimately came down to edit requests are content creation of a sort and are, frequently, quite similar to copyediting (just with a little bit of verification/RS work thrown in for good measure). PCR just isn't content ''creation'' in quite that way. Hope that explains more clearly. Best, [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] ([[User_talk:Barkeep49|talk]]) 02:37, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

== Jocky Wilson Cup ==

Hello:

I reviewed your copy edit of the article [[Jocky Wilson Cup]]. I made a few minor wording changes and fixed a couple of date formats so they were consistent throughout the article, otherwise the copy edit was fine. Thanks for helping out at the Guild. You should let the requestor know you have completed the copy edit and, if you wish, add  {{GOCE|user=Twofingered Typist|date=22 August 2020}} on the talk page of articles you have copy edited. You can use {{GOCEtb|article=Insert article name|sign=[[User:Twofingered Typist|Twofingered Typist]] ([[User talk:Twofingered Typist|talk]]) 21:55, 22 August 2020 (UTC)}} on the talk page of the requester. If you use the templates your name will appear instead of mine.
Regards,

We also wanted to extend a big thank you for your support, advice, contributions and love that make all this possible. 

Head over to our project page on Meta Wikimedia to read [[m:WikiLoop/2020 Year in Review|a brief 2020 Year in Review for WikiLoop.]] 

Thank you for taking the time to review Wikipedia using [http://doublecheck.wikiloop.org/ WikiLoop DoubleCheck.] Your work is important and it matters to everyone. We look forward to continuing our collaboration through 2021!

Since March, which is when you truly became active, and in only looking through your talk page archives, I see a pattern of disruptive editing across a wide range of Wikipedia. 
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#February_2020|Raced]] to include information without a source
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Your_warning|Left]] experienced users warning messages (which you are still seemingly doing [[Special:Diff/965689039|today]]
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Tools|Restored]] vandalism
*Had issues five different issues with their signature:
**[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Signature|Time 1]]
**[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#flotsam_and_jetsam_in_(recent)_signature|Time 2]]
**[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Your_signature_again|Time 3]]
**[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Refs|Time 4]]
**[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Seriousness_vs._fun|Time 5]]
* Engaged in disruptive April Fools jokes: [[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Your_editing_at_Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Xaosflux_2|1]], [[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Speedy_Deletion_Cabal_Stuff|2]], [[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Speedy_deletion_nomination_of_Wikipedia:Requests_for_de-adminship/Can_I_Log_In|3]]
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#April_2020|Unnecessarily]] changed templates at RfD
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#RfC_close|Had]] an RfC close over turned
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Stay_out_of_Wikipedia_space|Clerked]] a PERM page
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#RedWarn_cross-wiki|Used]] a script cross wiki which was not capable of being used cross wiki and which use could disrupt English Wikipedia
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Seriousness_vs._fun|Inappropriately]] joked at UAA
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Protected_edit_request_on_MediaWiki_talk:Gadgets-definition|Attempted]] to edit a gadget
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Template_changes|Broke]] a Twinkle template
*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#CSDs|Incorrectly]] attempted a G6 because "I just hate it when I see people not follwing [[WP:RBI|RBI]] for [[Special:AbuseFilter/1071|TikTok trolls]]"

Then there are more serious problems you've had including [[Special:Diff/952881475|reverse engineering]] a script to do mass edits. You have also spoken to other editors in a way that merited a formal notice by {{u|TonyBallioni}} who had previously left you a [[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Final_warning|warning]] after you disruptively edited policy/guideline pages.

No single incident is on their own troubling. But there are patterns of problems (including signatures, technical editing you do not do correctly, and attempting to dive into project space tasks which you lack the background and/or skill to do successfully), a wide range of these problems, ''and'' a discussion style that is confrontational and not in the collaborative spirit of this project. On the plus side, after a [[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Copy_edit_of_Lori_Loughlin|rocky]] start, you do seem to do a good job with copy editing. However, that positive is not enough to outweigh all the negatives or enough to show that you have the competence required to edit Wikipedia. [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] ([[User_talk:Barkeep49|talk]]) 21:38, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
:[[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] I would like to address the concerns in no particular order, particularly the early ones.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#February_2020|Raced]] to include information without a source&mdash;I haven't done that any more, and I've been strict on the sourcing.
:*[[WP:TTR|Templating regulars]]&mdash;That one I've learned to not needlessly drop by. That note about the protection was intendle to be a note.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Tools|Restored]] vandalism&mdash;I didn't know about TW enough to understand the restore button, even though it meant restore. I haven't accidentaly done that since that.
:*Signature&mdash;not as much of a severe problem as it was before.
:From this point on is when things really get hot.
:*[[Special:Diff/952881475|reverse engineering]] a script to do mass edits&mdash;I should've never done that.
:*RfD template&mdash;I believe you were referring to [[Special:Diff/953414928|this one]]. I though the "hard" redirect was actually supposed to be there. That one I have learned from.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#RfC_close|Had]] an RfC close over turned&mdash;while the consensus was correct, weeks/months later, I see how it was a bad close.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In/Archive_1#Stay_out_of_Wikipedia_space|Clerked]] a PERM page&mdash;my bad, should've never gone it.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Seriousness_vs._fun|Inappropriately]] joked at UAA&mdash;I never joked at UAA. What that thread was about was my TW edit summar ''"Twinkle Twinkle Little Start"''.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#RedWarn_cross-wiki|Used]] a script cross wiki which was not capable of being used cross wiki and which use could disrupt English Wikipedia&mdash;never happened since I don't have (auto)confirmed status on wikis that would load it.
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Protected_edit_request_on_MediaWiki_talk:Gadgets-definition|Attempted]] to edit a gadget&mdash;the thread was about if it was editable by only administrators or interface admins. 
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#Template_changes|Broke]] a Twinkle template&mdash;fixed
:*[[User_talk:Can_I_Log_In#CSDs|Incorrectly]] attempted a G6 because "I just hate it when I see people not follwing [[WP:RBI|RBI]] for [[Special:AbuseFilter/1071|TikTok trolls]]"&mdash;I should've never done that in the first place
:OK so I made my statement. I just wanted to address the issues, and now here we are. '''What is next to move forward?'''

::Ultimately you need to address the reason for the block. As I wrote the problem was not any individual incident, it was the total picture presented by all these different things when looked at together. So replying about each diff presented isn't actually responding to the concern. {{pb}}In terms of the block being lifted you have a couple options. You can discuss with me what will be different if you were to be unblocked. If I can be assured that you will be able to edit competently I will lift the block. Or you can use the unblock template to get a different administrator to look at things. Choosing one of these options does not prevent you from doing the other one in the future.

:::[[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] I'll summarize the block in 2 words. [[WP:RECKLESS|recklessly bold]]. While [[WP:BOLD|being bold]] is desired to article related content and its related talk page, not a good idea in the "behind the scenes". This means if I were to be unblocked, I would have to be <u>extremely</u> '''STRICT''' on what edits I make in project space unrelated to article content (WikiProjects, other article clean-up related task). I would define strict as anything in project space that are 
:::*stuff I'm currently working on pre-block
:::*incidents or discussions I've been involved in or explicitly invited to make a comment
:::*anything that would '''''TRULY''''' be productive comments or replies that help in moving forward a discussion, legit questions
:::*and if necessary for some ''super'' strange and unusual [[WP:IAR|IAR]] rationale, well IAR. 
:::In short, '''don't be bold''' in project space. I can just sit back and see what's going on behind the scenes, but not intervene without the good strict reason.
:::Now in my opinion, this doesn't really cover the current user-interaction concerns. The main problem with this piece of the block is that some of my comments are be construed differently than I intended; this is definitely a major concern. This is probably another '''don't be bold''' thing and do what I said above.
:::An unblock [[WP:ER/UC|with]] or without a mandated restriction is discretionary, but I ''will'' have to voluntarily abide by the above if I am going to be unblocked. I won't ask for [[Template:Unblock|another opinion]] on this right now; my words above I stand by.
:::[[User:Can I Log In|Can I Log In]] ([[User talk:Can I Log In|talk]]) 23:12, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
::::{{u|Can I Log In}}, this is on the right track of how I can be assured that you will be able to edit competently. I am glad we're off to a productive start.

:::::For one, a content dispute over  with Primfac on whether {{tl|Edit partially-blocked}} should function like other protected edit request template such as {{tl|edit semi-protected}} or just merge it with {{tl|request edit}}, the COI edit request template. I'm not explaining that dispute in further detail, nor will I explain its background, but once it would be over, slowly "advertise", but not disruptively, the template (add links to related pages and templates) (this part of the unblocking may be blocked). Other than that, there isn't really much about {{tqq|stuff I'm currently working on pre-block}}, so that would go away quickly within estimate a month.
:::::Productive comments&mdash;I've been watching [[Special:Permalink/965386966#Clarification request: Palestine-Israel articles|this ArbCom clarification request]] regarding the ARBPIA General Sanctions. One of the arbitrators made a comment which I believe was not the intention, so I made [[Special:Permalink/965386966#Statement by Can I Log In|my statement]] with what I found from the [[WP:ARBPIA3|ARBPIA3]] case.
:::::Non-productive comemnts&mdash;ANI or ArbCom, both are heated when there is an indepth discussion. So I found [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Why is this ok?|Why is this ok?]], and uh, for one, that should be at village pump since there is no long-term or urgent user-conduct issues, and two, the productivity of that I find to be borderline. WIth my intention of don't be bold, if you're not certain, just don't.
:::::Another example&mdash;ANI again. [[WP:ANI#WP:NPOV problem over at Core Issues Trust and WP:3RR Violation by User:92.2.40.111|This]] is a genuine and '''legit''' question from what appears to be a new editor.

{{od|:::::::}}{{u|Can I Log In}}, thanks. That's helpful. After reading the diffs you provided, and considering the past issues, I agree with the general thrust of what you're proposing but think we need to look at a more radical version of it.
:You stop all activities that are not related to content creation. Exceptions to this will be narrowly construed and need to directly involve your content work.
:You may, following the lifting of the block, make one change to your user signature and you may make subsequent corrective changes if suggested by other users. Otherwise leave your signature alone for the length of these restrictions.
To give some parameters as to what content creation means, copy editing is a form of content creation so that can continue (I'll discuss the GOCE more in a moment). Recent change patrolling and other counter vandalism patrolling are important pieces of work but are not content creation so that stops. Responding to people on your user talk is obviously fine. Asking legitimate questions, like what you linked above, is fine and even encouraged. Templating, warning, or correcting editors is not necessary to content creation so I would expect your use of other's talk pages to be limited things like pointing them towards talk page discussions or asking legitimate questions. Speaking of which, using article talk pages is a core part of the content creation process and so using them is fine. You can use noticeboards as needed to report on users you came into contact with while doing content creation or to respond if you are brought to one. If for some reason you need help not permitted by this restriction (i.e. an article you've done content work on has been vandalized and nothing has happened after a reasonable amount of time and after you've posted on the article talk page) you may use the {{t|helpme}} or {{t|adminhelp}} templates.<br>
The conversation you linked at {{t|PBER}} is an excellent example of a principle I don't think you've yet absorbed but are going to need to to continue here: there are other editors who understand Wikipedia and it systems better than you. You need to be asking more questions and making fewer changes and fewer statements about how things are or should be. Primefac is among our most respected editors; that respect led him to be chosen first as a sysop and then a bureaucrat. For him to stop a conversation because you're not listening to what he's writing says something and it's not about Primefac. Instead of getting into a disagreement that could have and should have been an opportunity to learn. That conversation plays out differently if you'd started with a question and then really thought and considered the answer and then maybe asked another question. If you do this, you are eventually going to learn enough to be able to starting really answering questions and having opinions and ideas that are not disruptive but which improve the encyclopedia. If you need a second example of what needs to stop, it would be telling me how unblock edit restrictions work. I have been trusted with the sysop toolset for a reason and part of the basis of that trust is because '''''I''''' know when I need to ask questions about something.<br>
Without your GOCE work this would be a different story. That work has been the best, and perhaps only, evidence that you can be a positive productive Wikipedian. Without it I do not invest the significant time I have just done typing this all out in hopes of guiding you in a better direction; instead I tell you to file an appeal, knowing it probably gets declined, and you have to wait six months to ask for the [[WP:SO|standard offer]]. As it seems like you're doing good work there, and because you are seen as a positive, if you would like to participate in that project during this time of editing restriction that's fine. The idea will be to give you a space where you can demonstrate the new better you. A word of warning though: because things would be looking very different without the GOCE, were that project, or leaders of that project, to feel differently than they do today about your participation we'd have to re-examine whether or not you were a net positive.<br>
Because I am a reasonable person, I will listen to suggestions you have about this, assuming you are agreeable to the overall principle and framework. I will gladly answer questions you have about it. But tread carefully with this - it is the first chance for you to demonstrate you're absorbing the larger message of this block. Assuming you are agreeable and get unblocked, I would see violations of this restriction, of which I'd hope there would be none, generally being met with a series of escalating blocks (if I'm the one doing it, I'll likely start at 3 days). As noted if problems are reported from the GOCE, however, that could be a very different situation. In terms of appeal, I would see us being able to revisit elements of this in as few as 3 months assuming there aren't problems (i.e. maybe you can start using your pending changes reviewer permission again which is a nice segue between counter vandalism and content work). If this gradual easing of restrictions works, I think in '''as little as six months''' (meaning maybe longer) all editing restrictions could be removed. What do you think?

:Hi Can I Log In; I was quite surprised to see your account blocked but here we are. No-one wants to exclude you but the admins need to protect the project from disruption, intentional or not. Please treat the conditions of Barkeep49's offer above seriously. If you're unblocked, please concentrate on article work and stay away from obscure behind-the-scenes processes: with respect, you don't appear to have enough WP experience or the maturity to involve yourself in these areas of the project. On the positive side, your copy-editing has been good so I hope you'll stay active at the GOCE and continue working in article space to build up some editing experience. Copy-editing is a great way to learn about what's acceptable in Wikipedia articles and article-writing can build skills in researching, quoting and referencing, which are all useful skills outside WP. You could look upon this block as a learning experience; we all make mistakes sometimes. I hope we'll see you at the GOCE again. Cheers and good luck, '''[[User talk:Baffle gab1978|<span style="color:#191960">Baffle☿''gab''</span>]]''' 05:29, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

::Well I didn't expect to see this when I came to your talk page to say thanks about Koeri but I'll reiterate what Baffle gab says and I'll add my own endorsement that certainly in areas like copy editing you are going the extra distance. I declined to revdel a copyvio as I couldn't see enough of the source material (Google books snippet) so you made that extra effort to find me the necessary material so I could revdel with confidence.  Stick to articles and stay away from policy and procedure pages unless it is to ask questions. [[User:Nthep|Nthep]] ([[User talk:Nthep|talk]]) 11:31, 3 July 2020 (UTC)

:What I'm seeing here is a restriction to content creation and other maintanence work related to it. 
:There are 2 types of templates. Thoses used in articles, and those not used in articles. I once came a across {{tl|CHE}} during a copyedit which had an annoying double space which I hated. I even [[User:Can I Log In#Notes|tried to trace down the problem]] and then just plain abandonded it.
:# If I were ever to revisit this issue and found a solution, would I be permitted to file a TPER?
:# Any touching of templates for use in content is allowed right?
:There is a regular backlog of [[WP:SPER|semi-protected edit request]] and [[CAT:EDITREQ|COI edit request]], all relating to article content for which they are unable to edit, and that makes up [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&offset=&limit=500&target=Can+I+Log+In&namespace=1&tagfilter=&start=&end= most of my talk space edits]. Would reviewing of these edit request still be permitted.
:In terms of other article maintanence I do, sourcing, merging, [[:Category:All articles with bare URLs for citations|bare URLs as refernces]], just plain cleanup I find neccessary, and uh all the sudden if I find a copyvio.
:I might find the MOS to be common encounter, and may ask on it's Wikipedia talk: page.
:As with the pending changes reviewer, it's commonly known as another basic counter-vandalism user right, I just use it as another reviewing edit request. If the edit request part above is not permitted, you might as well revoke PCR from me.
:As with IAR and exceptions to this, I hope I never have to use it, if it's very ''obvious'' and no one has done a crap about it after 10&ndash;15 minutes, I might have to break the restrictions with a possible post-action discussion. Not very obvious, like you said, the helpme templates.
:[[User:Can I Log In|Can I Log In]] ([[User talk:Can I Log In|talk]]) 17:07, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
::I would not block you or support a block of you if you IAR and removed content which later had to be [[WP:revdel|revision deleted]] under revdel reasons 2-4. However, it makes me nervous to put that in writing because I can imagine a scenario where you good faith remove something thinking it will be revdel'ed and then it turns out not to qualify. So let me be clear again on an essential point. ''I in no way doubt your good faith or sincere desire to improve Wikipedia. However, your good faith efforts have, nonetheless, resulted in repeated disruptive editing.'' Good faith alone will not be a defense. So sure IAR in certain instances of extreme vandalism. But you better be right. If you're nervous you might not be right use the help-me templates; in most situations 15 minutes is not make or break. Even several hours is not make or break. 
::The spirit of this restriction is to let you lean into what you've done well and go from there.  Obviously you can use templates when doing your editing but creating/changing templates is not in the spirit of content creation under what I am suggesting. So no to TPER for now. If you encounter something like what is being discussed at [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Grove_music_online|AN]] right now about a broken ref template causing problems, ping me or use a help-me so the issue can be reported rather than trying to fix the template yourself.
::Pending changes and edit requests are part content creation, part administrative action. So let's go back to the spirit of the restriction as I am proposing it. In that context, it is not building off your strengths and takes us back into territory, administrative type actions, for which there is evidence of problems. My idea of talking about a loosening of the restriction in as soon as three months, rather than a more typical six months is because this kind of work could serve as a nice bridge between where we're starting and resuming full editing. So far now leave them alone. If it helps I'm happy to revoke PCR until such a time as you could use it again.
::Cleaning up BARE URLs and handling COPYVIO is a standard part of copy editing so both make sense. But exercise caution. For instance, I would look askance on something like you joining/doing CopyPatrol. 

::I don't understand what {{tqq|I might find the MOS to be common encounter, and may ask on it's Wikipedia talk: page.}} means. 
::I think that's everything from your response. Let me know if I missed something or you have further questions. [[User:Barkeep49|Barkeep49]] ([[User_talk:Barkeep49|talk]]) 18:01, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
:::{{tqq|I might find the MOS to be common encounter, and may ask on it's Wikipedia talk: page.}} Simpily, questions and clarification regarding the MOS. 
:::Please revoke PCR before I "accidentally" use it.
:::I've seen the revision deleteable edits. [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Tim_Allen&offset=20200629000000&limit=50&tagfilter=&action=history I've gone on an edit war with a vandal], [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Body_odor&offset=20200629000000&limit=50&tagfilter=&action=history I've seen this]. They were RD2ed, I called oversight. I just found them in the AbuseLog.

::::Asking questions about the MOS is absolutely in-line with the spirit of this restriction. Proposing changes to the MOS is not. Does that help clarify. If you tell me that you agree to the restrictions as we've laid them out here, I will remove the block and revoke PCR.
