Arbitration discretionary sanctions alert

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Regards, Sandstein 21:32, 13 May 2018 (UTC) What does this mean? That any edit about post-1932 American politics may be objectionable to Sandstein and that she can do anything? I can't think of any post-1932 article that I want to edit but this box is odd. Who is writing up these boxes? Cowdung Soup (talk) 22:56, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You contributed to the article on Kelly Sadler and its deletion discussion, which falls under the topic area the notification is about(as she works for President Trump). It is a notification only, regarding sanctions issued by the Arbitration Committee in that topic area, and is not tied to a specific user. As it states, you have not necessarily done anything wrong.

The reason I am here is to request that you change your username at WP:CHU; names that involve bodily wastes can be offensive to other users. 331dot (talk) 08:07, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I am willing. I kept picking names (make more than 10 tries) and they were all taken or similar to ones taken. Some were not really similar but still not allowed. How do I request another name that is not taken? Is there a master list? Cowdung Soup (talk) 02:43, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You can check if a username is available by going to Special:CentralAuth. 331dot (talk) 03:05, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
