No not really, but ~180 editors watch this page and I wanted to let y'all know about a change the EU is considering to copyright law, which could have serious negative effects on Wikipedia.

Thanks, and I apologise for this terrible misuse of my talk page (and the lure of cookies) - TNT❤ 13:40, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi TNT! I noticed you were an administrator and I was wondering if what I am doing is okay according to Wikipedia standards. I am completing an unpaid project for an organization where I am linking their resources to appropriate Wikipedia pages in the "External Link" section. Is what I am doing wrong? There has been a lot of conflict about this. If this is not okay, is there a way I could complete a similar project that is okay? Thank you! Rcar01 (talk) 19:49, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Rcar01: Hey, thanks for getting in contact! As you're completing a project on behalf of a organisation, you have a "Conflict of Interest" - this is, what I believe, the root of the issue with adding these external links. Don't worry though, having a Conflict of Interest doesn't (normally) prevent you from making the edits, you just need to follow these steps, especially the part on disclosure - once you've done that, let me know, and I'll give it a quick check. Then you should be good to go, providing you follow our guidelines on external links - TNT 💖 19:57, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
Thank you so much! About the disclosure, would I put that on my user page or just any time I add one of the links? Rcar01 (talk) 20:02, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
- @Rcar01: Not a problem this page says "
You can also make a statement in the edit summary of any COI contribution. If you want to note the COI on your user page, you can use the {{UserboxCOI}} template
" - I'd personally recommend adding the {{UserboxCOI}} template to your user page. Some instructions on doing that can be found here. I'd also suggest the use of {{Request edit}} (instructions) if you're not 100% sure the external link belongs on a page - TNT 💖 20:07, 29 June 2018 (UTC)

How we treat others...
HI TnT,
You had asked that I write you about my experience with TParis.
When I found out that this page "This High School Has Closets" I went to reddit and asked for help on finding out what to do.
TParis wasn't helpful more judgemental. Telling me a "snowball's chance in hell" is not what I consider professional behavior and when I went back and told him that he was vindictive and posting his comments on RoySmith's page that he supported the decision.
Here is the link to the screenshot that I took from reddit. (Redacted)
I find Wikipedia to be very strong and biased against LGBT/people of colour articles. And I have been part of the community for many years. It was an all out assault to me just to get Mr. Greene's page kept up there. So, I rarely post because I do not have the energy to fight the bigotry I see here. However, when I posted Tiko Kerr, got no harrassment whatsoever.
Keep in mind that "This High School Has Closests" I did not request nor create that page.
I have found the environment at wikipedia to be rather acidic and unwelcoming.
However, going on Wikipedia to post one's revenge isn't what I view as a welcoming environment. Tews~enwiki (talk) 20:35, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Tews~enwiki: Hi Tews~enwiki, thanks for getting in contact - as this includes off-wiki information, I'd suggest you contact me directly through email. I note you do not have an email attached to your account, so you'll currently be unable to use the email user feature - would you be able to add one?
- Please be aware that screenshot includes your full name, and TParis's reddit account username, which they may not want to be made public. I have removed it and oversighted the link to help protect everyone's privacy.
- As to the above, the phrase "
snowball's chance in hell
" comes from WP:SNOWBALL, though I appreciate that to someone not "in the know" it seems somewhat blunt. I note in the reddit post you've asked about LGBTQ+ support, have you found Wikimedia LGBT+? They may be able to lend some help or advice.
- If there is anything specific you'd like me to look into, or if you'd like to chat about this further, please drop me an email - TNT 💖 20:51, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
How do I set up in-email? Tews~enwiki (talk) 20:55, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Tews~enwiki: if you go to Special:Preferences, you should see "" near the bottom. You'll then be able to use this link to email me - TNT 💖 20:57, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
