Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 13:32, 1 November 2014

Josve05a is currently feeling discouraged about Misplaced Pages and is taking an off-and-on wikibreak due to loss of motivation. Your help in cheering this user up would be appreciated. They will return when their wikistress has dissipated and their confidence in the wikicommunity has been restored.

Unless I missed it...

The Teamwork awards could well be handled now. Fiddle Faddle 22:16, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Oh Gosh Golly. I forgot about those... (t) Josve05a (c) 08:35, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Done! (t) Josve05a (c) 08:43, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Way cool. Thanks for finishing the job. Fiddle Faddle 08:54, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

For making a quick save

		The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
		This is for simply noticing random disruption and handling it promptly without even being asked to do so. If we had a few hundred more of you, we could clean up a lot more disruptive edits. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:41, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

@MezzoMezzo: Thank you! Always nice with some encouragement. I only try to help out the best I can. Can't do more than that. (t) Josve05a (c) 12:18, 31 October 2014 (UTC)ß

Happy Halloween!!!

Wilhelmina Will has given you some caramel and a candy apple! Caramel and candy-coated apples are fun Halloween treats, and promote WikiLove on Halloween. Hopefully these have made your Halloween (and the proceeding days) much sweeter. Happy Halloween! '"On Psych, A USA Network TV series Episode 8, The Tao of Gus, Season 6, Shawn refers to pumpkins as "Halloween Apples" because he thinks all round fruits are a type of apple. If Trick-or-treaters come your way, add {{subst:Halloween apples}} to their talkpage with a spoooooky message!

Cheers! "We could read for-EVER; reading round the wiki!" (talk) 18:23, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Arbitration enforcement alert: Eastern Europe

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding Eastern Europe, 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 Misplaced Pages, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you 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.

Hi, I'm alerting you about the existence of discretionary sanctions because you have expressed an interest in editing Polandball, an Eastern Europe-related topic that has previously been the subject of conflict. Regards,  Sandstein  10:27, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

I have no intrest of editing the article(s) themself (unless consensus is given), so no worries. But I however feel like that this "template"-message is a little {{uw-dttr}}... (t) Josve05a (c) 11:03, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about the officious template, but procedure mandates that I use this exact template for such an alert. Also, just to avoid confusion, it is not in fact possible to revoke such an alert, contrary to what Nick says below.  Sandstein  13:27, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

You can't issue enforcement action concerning an article that has yet to be created or undeleted, and anyway, you can no longer deal with any enforcement action as you yourself are now subject to discretionary sanctions. The correct course of action is for you to both remove the template and to apologise for the chilling behaviour shown towards Josve05a. Nick (talk) 13:32, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Even for your frequently tenuous Arbitration Enforcement action Sandstein, this takes the biscuit. Josve05a - consider the above message revoked or superfluous, there's no way I (or indeed the Arbitration Committee) is going to allow an over enthusiastic amateur to stop people trying to add content to Misplaced Pages. I have thought, with all due respect Sandstein, your Arbitration Enforcement was blunderingly incompetent, but this just confirms it. Nick (talk) 11:07, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
