Heya, I thought a bot would have notified you, but I wanted to let you know that clerks and ArbCom have promoted you to full clerk. Thanks for your hard work in the past and in the future. Primefac ( talk) 08:48, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

I got a ping to that ARCA today by an arb; I sent a couple in response. Kinda feels like you shut that discussion down too soon (for no apparent reason). It's only been up for a week, so... why? El_C 21:54, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Is the 2020 Santa Cruz graduate students' strike still going on? (There's a new strike now.) I assume not but I was surprised it wasn't updated. — Lights and freedom ( talk ~ contribs) 02:50, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
Hi MJL. I noticed that you recently reverted my edit to CENT by claiming that the RFC is almost over. Typically, RfCs last for a bit longer than two weeks, and I'm wondering if you'd be willing to self-revert to ensure that the discussion is well-advertised. Given that it affects the main page of Wikipedia, I think that this is relevant enough to include in CENT. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 05:08, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
Hello. I'd like to ask you to move Maryana's message back to its original location on VP/M. The location was chosen on purpose and VPWMF does say that "Wikimedia Foundation currently does not consider this page to be a communication venue." I'm not going to revert your change but I hope you can see the reasoning for asking you to do so. Guillaume (WMF) ( talk) 23:43, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
@
Guillaume (WMF): Done I don't agree with the Foundation not just using the forum we set up for them, but that's not in my power to change I guess.
Apologies,
BilledMammal. I believe I moved your comment, but the ping is gonna be messed up. –

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Roman Reigns Fanboy ( talk) 20:00, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to updates on the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions review process.
The Arbitration Committee has concluded the 2021-22 review of the contentious topics system (formerly known as discretionary sanctions), and its final decision is viewable at the revision process page. As part of the review process, the Arbitration Committee has resolved by motion that:
The above proposals that are supported by an absolute majority of unrecused active arbitrators are hereby enacted. The drafting arbitrators (CaptainEek, L235, and Wugapodes) are directed to take the actions necessary to bring the proposals enacted by this motion into effect, including by amending the procedures at WP:AC/P and WP:AC/DS. The authority granted to the drafting arbitrators by this motion expires one month after enactment.
The Arbitration Committee thanks all those who have participated in the 2021-22 discretionary sanctions review process and all who have helped bring it to a successful conclusion. This motion concludes the 2021-22 discretionary sanctions review process.
This motion initiates a one-month implementation period for the updates to the contentious topics system. The Arbitration Committee will announce when the initial implementation of the Committee's decision has concluded and the amendments made by the drafting arbitrators in accordance with the Committee's decision take effect. Any editors interested in the implementation process are invited to assist at the implementation talk page, and editors interested in updates may subscribe to the update list.

You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to updates on the Arbitration Committee's contentious topics procedure revision process.
In December, the Arbitration Committee adopted the contentious topics procedure, which replaces the former discretionary sanctions system. The contentious topics procedure is now in effect following an initial implementation period.
The drafting arbitrators warmly thank all those who have worked to implement the new procedure during this implementation period and beyond. KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 19:44, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

You are involved in a recently filed request for arbitration. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#BrownHairedGirl at CFD and, if you wish to do so, enter your statement and any other material you wish to submit to the Arbitration Committee. As threaded discussion is not permitted on most arbitration pages, please ensure that you make all comments in your own section only. Additionally, the guide to arbitration and the Arbitration Committee's procedures may be of use.

ToBeFree won't do a thing to help anyone. The page I was sent to at the Help Desk won't WORK to ask for an edit to the talk page. You look like you're a person who might actually give a damn. Will you be willing to post comments for people who are shut out by the talk page protection? Saikyoryu ( talk) 23:35, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

in 2 days anyways. Making her wait that time to just make the same comment she would anyways when Saikyoryu clearly feels frustrated in this exact moment is not productive. The protection was to prevent users from making
WP:NOTFORUM comments which
this clearly wasn't was.
Please, do not bite the newcomers. Also, if you are going to accuse an editor of being a sockpuppet of an IP, then you should probably at least specificy the IP you are talking about because TBF makes a ton of IP blocks.MJL, you might want to read this comment from the admin who originally protected the page, and reconsider your actions. Red Slapper ( talk) 18:36, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
First I want to say thank you for your help. Second I want to address the insinuations from Red Slapper above because I don't like the uncivil comments and threats they are making. When my middle school teacher had us do a wikipedia edit camp for a few weeks we were taught that the thing we were supposed to do if we didn't have a specific page to edit was to click the random article link and look for things we could improve. I remembered that there is a help desk page and some of how to do things like putting a link in brackets or citation needed that we were taught how to do since asking for citations is important. I am remembering others or looking up the listing pages when I don't remember how to do something or I try something and think I didn't get it right.
If you have any other advice on what I should or shouldn't do I am open to hearing it because I want to make sure I do things right even when wikipedia is confusing or people are saying things that are contradicting each other. Saikyoryu ( talk) 19:33, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
Also should this source be proposed? Is it reliable? https://english.elpais.com/culture/2023-07-17/the-sound-of-qanon-conspiracy-echoes-through-the-most-unexpected-blockbuster-of-the-summer.html Saikyoryu ( talk) 01:29, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
I'm sorry to say I think I still need your help. It looks like Red Slapper is following me to different pages like [6] now. And he left me a message accusing me of what he did to me. [7] Saikyoryu ( talk) 14:22, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
ok I need help. This article is messed up, most of the articles don't really have anything to do with it. But it has 11 sources to something? Random stuff? Should it be fixed or just suggested to delete? Saikyoryu ( talk) 04:15, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
Can I ask you to forward my clarification reply to FMSky's question in the Use of "however" in an argumentative fashion thread?
To FMSky on the question of "How is it related to the film or how does it prove ties to the QAnon conspiracy theory?", the interview which includes both Ballard and Caviezel making connections to QAnon conspiracy theories was Peterson interviewing both Ballard and Caviezel for the purpose of promoting the movie. The first line of the Apple Podcast description states "Dr. Jordan B. Peterson discusses the new film “Sound of Freedom,” with star Jim Caviezel and real life inspiration Tim Ballard" and the podcast page also directly promotes the movie. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/372-the-fight-against-worldwide-child-slavery-the/id1184022695?i=1000619149837 Saikyoryu ( talk) 16:44, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
