Hope you end up reconsidering. Best wishes, El_C 06:43, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
I'm genuinely sorry to anyone who feels let down, but at the end of the day it's just a hobby, so if it's not bringing enjoyment any more then screw it as a way to waste time. I'm glad I used reply-link for this though - I needed to type Y's username from memory, and stunned myself by getting it right first time... -- Begoon 10:45, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
I'm afraid it can't be an ongoing "thing" though - if you want to understand why good, experienced users are deserting in droves you could maybe take up the relevant aspects of their disgraceful behaviour with
Bbb23 or, to a slightly lesser extent,
ToBeFree, but I don't really recommend it if you're looking for anything more than trite platitudes or "poor old innocent me" dismissals. Culture change is hard, and not something I have time to fight for right now, so you seem to be stuck with the community empowered "losers"
"rubbing their bloodied hands with glee"
[2]. Sorry. I'm sure they'll help you crop your images if you ask them nicely - it's not like there's much skill involved. --

missing Brian |
... for improving article quality in December! There's a peer review open for Clara Schumann and a FAC for Jauchzet, frohlocket!, DYK? We miss Brian who would have helped.
I meant to send you this yesterday but got too tired. - Begoon, I'd miss you tremendously, ducks and fairness, - isn't it bad enough that people die? Please watch my talk for season's greetings, but my mood to write them just dropped even lower. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 09:00, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
AlbanGeller, who was kind enough to post here, was also wise (and kind again) enough to say
this to me: "you shouldn't let those losers get to you (and, by extension, Wikipedia). Personally speaking, I think you're an inspirational contributor to this site and, in my humble opinion, your defiance in the face of those who wish to sully your reputation would far better serve the greater good than to walk away with them rubbing their bloodied hands with glee."
.
We'll see. Nothing is forever, as you, of all people know, but at the moment I'm really not inclined to donate my time here so I'm going to let the dickheads "rub their bloody hands with glee" for a while. It says far more about them than it does about me. I think I mentioned karma above - I do have faith in that (and I confess that sometimes I don't mind helping it along a bit...). -- Begoon 12:27, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
Wow, I was just coming by to thank you for continued excellent watchdogging like here, and then noticed that you're leaving? Sorry to hear that. Your efforts were greatly appreciated. I regret not saying something sooner. Best wishes to you. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 16:07, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
Listen. I'm pleased to hear from you because you're one of the people I always enjoyed working with. You have so much "clue" and it's always a pleasure to deal with you. Take care, and be well. -- Begoon 16:21, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
@ Begoon Haii, I'm requesting you to please Convert & upload The logo of Kazi Nazrul University in SVG format. Thanks Regards. Kulbhushan Jhadav ( talk) 06:59, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello, you've uploaded this photo: /info/en/?search=File:Konfederacja_WiN_Sondaz_1.svg#file without any copyright issues. My file was deleted: https://commons.wikimedia.org/?title=File:Konfederacja_Wolno%C5%9B%C4%87_i_Niepoleg%C5%82o%C5%9B%C4%87.png&action=edit&redlink=1 It's from the same source as yours. Since it has been deleted, I can't upload it once again. Why was the logo deleted? How do I upload it so it's not deleted due to copyright issues?

Hello,
I had edited a page of actress Avneet Kaur some time back. I tried to update the picture of the actress. But a copyright claim appeared in my talk page. If possible please update her picture as the picture is too old. The picture was taken in 2015, more than 5 years ago. She has changed a lot in these years.
This is the link to her page : /info/en/?search=Avneet_Kaur
Greetings, FYI I filed a request at WP:ANI titled "CIR-based community-imposed site ban re: RTG". In providing a basis for my request I mentioned you and your prior dealings with this editor. Your input at ANI is optional, i.e., invited but not specifically requested. Thanks for reading. NewsAndEventsGuy ( talk) 12:58, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I would like to ask your help on this particular issue on Ariana Grande article. The article is so decorated with unnecessary fancruft and puffery, especially propagated by the user Mirrored7.
1. I removed the superfluous autograph image from the infobox and that user keeps adding it back. As we all know, Grande is prominently known for being a singer and an actress. However, that specific editor keeps adding the "songwriter" bit to the prose. I've reverted it thrice; and I don't wanna do it anymore. Yes, she writes some of her songs, and that is why "songwriter" is in the infobox, but further putting in the first line of the prose? That's misleading. She's not primarily known as a songwriter.
2. Just because I removed "songwriter" from the lead line and short description, Mirrored7 tracked my contributions and learned that I primarily edit on Taylor Swift articles, and has started to unnecessarily disruptive-edit the lead of the Taylor Swift article, over things that have already been discussed, resolved and settled with other users. This is petty fan war behavior and feels like WP:POINT.
Please look into this, as I believe you're experienced with dealing this, and also because you've warned this same editor for such disruptive activity before. Thank You. Regards BawinV ( talk) 12:09, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
Hi! There are already two users who disagree with your editing. You can discuss it on the talk page, but no edit wars please, this can be resolved constructively. My edit on the Taylor Swift page has nothing to do with the problem. I just wanted to clear some puffery there. It's a fact that the top is too long. Mirrored7 ( talk) 13:33, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
There is currently a discussion at
Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is
Disable MDanielsBot. Thank you. Sorry I forgot to notify you earlier. — Alexis Jazz (

Hi Begoon, you have been mentioned at User_talk:DuncanHill#Not_ignoring_you,_sorry. As you have last edited 3 days ago, I assume that a ping does not necessarily reach you quickly enough; a talk page notification may. At least that's what it would be in my situation, as I have enabled emails for talk page messages, but disabled them for pings.
It's probably too early for seasonal greetings; unless there is objection to receiving them, I'd like to return here later for these. ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 21:29, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
Enjoy the holiday season and winter solstice if it's occurring in your area of the world, and thanks for your work to maintain, improve and expand Wikipedia. Cheers, ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 20:18, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
Hi, I'm calling you from the Record Club Az representative, please put our Lego on the Wikipedia page. Our Lego has been published on our official site. Thanks
