Welcome to the Ireland WikiProject. Hopefully you have a good time, start many new articles and can contribute lots to the existing ones as we need that. Cheers ww2censor ( talk) 22:08, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks! Looking forward to spreading my knowledge, and improving various topics anywhere that I can. Thank you for having me. B. M. L. Peters ( talk) 22:15, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
Hi, if you have time, can you check recent deletions to the Fianna Fail and Fine Gael articles? Thanks, Denisarona ( talk) 10:07, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
- Another editor was able to revert the revisions! They were not sourced and therefore able to be skewed by personal bias, thank you for bringing it to my attention and thanked the editor who reverted them as well! B. M. L. Peters ( talk) 18:02, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Hi, I just wanted to send a quick message about ideologies and political positions in infoboxes. First I'm aware that I tend to oppose most of your suggested changes; I wanted to let you know that's nothing personal or anything, I can see you're trying to improve Wikipedia. Also thank you for proposing your changes on the talk page of articles first, that's always the best route.
The main reason I wanted to message you, though, was just to give a bit of friendly advice on how to approach ideologies. First, in general things like ideologies are often the subject of edit wars. Because of this it's usually best to keep infoboxes brief, to-the-point, and as neutral as possible. The more things with put in there, or the more we alter the ideologies, then the more likely it is that people with an agenda or with an axe to grind will be drawn to the article. I totally understand the desire to make sure everything's properly categorised or labelled -- after all, it's in human nature for us to organise everything -- but infoboxes are often prone to being overburdened with ideologies, which can cause other problems. We also have categories to try to make this easier, too.
The other thing to keep in mind is that it's usually best to keep it brief. The ideologies in an infobox really should be a definitive description of a party, regardless of who their leader is, or their recent policies, or particular wings of a party. For example, we wouldn't put libertarianism into the UKIP article, as that wing isn't representative of the whole party. Similarly, we didn't change Labour's position to be more left wing under Corbyn, as it was a temporary distraction for them. That's not to say you shouldn't be proposing changes, or that you're wrong to do so, or that we can't make changes. We absolutely can, but should probably do so sparingly and only really when there's an outright error.
Anyway, just thought I'd drop by in case this helps. See you around. — Czello 21:32, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the info! I know its nothing against me, its just part of the process! I am relatively new to Wikipedia, only been editing for a couple of years, I understand most of the rules and regulations, but not everything. I understand we should keep the infoboxes minimal and simple, often times I remove ideologies that are repetitive, like for example, I removed "conservatism" from a party not too long ago because "national conservatism" was also listed, and no point in keeping the general term of conservatism if the type of conservatism is listed. Definitely understand what your saying, thanks for the advice! B. M. L. Peters ( talk) 23:38, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Hi! Hope all's well. I noticed you were engaged in the issue of whether LREM is a centrist or centre-right party. We're currently having a discussion about this on the talk page for the article and I was wondering if you'd like to weigh in. Many thanks in advance and happy holidays.

Hi, I am talking about the article Opinion polling for the next Ukrainian parliamentary election. You asked me to move the graph from png to svg. Can you explain to me how I can do it and how it would be better to do it? Block baby ( talk) 19:10, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello! Unfortunately I do not know hot to make the change, but I believe it is a little easier to understand as it is less rigid, and svg is more uniform, and simpler, it is also technically a more advanced file type. Most graphs use this format for files. I do not know how to make the conversion though. B. M. L. Peters ( talk) 14:11, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
I thought you were the same user as Beyond My Ken. I'm sorry I misunderstood you so far.-- Storm598 ( talk) 13:06, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
- I've been suffering a lot from BMK for a long time, so I have a trauma, but I think I've caused you too much trouble because I've been confused by your nickname. I'm really sorry. I was stupid. -- Storm598 ( talk) 13:17, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
- Do not worry! I forgive you! Don't call yourself stupid, because you are definitely not! We have very similar interests and we edit the same kind of pages, together we can make Wikipedia a better place! Thank you for your apology, it is not needed, but I forgive you, and I wish you the best of luck! B. M. L. Peters ( talk) 08:29, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
You are suspected of
sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for
prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the
guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/B. M. L. Peters. Thank you.
