ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Editing other user's comments

Please don't edit other users comments without seeking permission first. It's rude, disrespectful, and changes the meaning of what the user intended. In the case of your edit to the DRN talk page your terminating those paragraph tags caused the nicely formatted text to not look as pretty. Hasteur (talk) 22:21, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

My apologies for the formatting change Hasteur, I was in a rush and didn't notice that the formatting had changed or I would have self-reverted. Might I propose a change then?

In my mind the page (as of this revision) would look something like the following

=Current disputes=

{{Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/Talk:David L. Jones}}

{{Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/UFC 193}}...

The idea is that everything from the specific dispute header to the end of the dispute will be encapsulated in the subpage. It will mean that the bot will have to open each subpage, extract the text, and run the same parsing logic that we already have on it. If you want to move forward with this, I ask you put it to a RFC to establish the will of DRN participants (volunteers meadiating and users seeking DR) to determine what to do. If there looks like there is consensus, I think I will need to file an amendment to the original bot authorization to indicate the difference in how the bot works (as certain editors get bent out of shape when it appears a bot I run is not covered 100% under existing authorizations). I see 3 phases: What we are at now, a hybrid state between the way we currently handle disputes and the subpages, and full subpages with an evolution from each of the states as we close out old disputes.

This version terminates the coding, which stops the following text after your comment from being syntax highlighted as "coded". I.e. it messes with the visual display of the text editor by highlighting the following text as "pink"/coded even though it isn't. That was my only intention, not to change the meaning of the original message. Again, sorry for the trouble. Cheers, Drcrazy102 (talk) 02:36, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

DRN discussion close

Hello, I just saw you closed the discussion I filed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#Talk:Muhammad.23Aisha_.22reaching_age_of_puberty.22 As I told a previous admin, there is really no guidelines as to what constitutes "more talk" or "extensive discussion". Meaning, we are at an impasse where the parties involved are unwilling to make any concessions (some were, but they were not the parties who were disputing the edit). As we are at an impasse, can you please a) let me know what type of further discussion you recommend? and b) how long should this discussion take place before this will be taken? thanks so much.Trinacrialucente (talk) 03:04, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi Trinacrialucente, extensive discussion may also mean have a discussion that hasn't only happened in a day before resolution is sought. While such recent discussions may qualify as "extensive" if there is also a lot of discussion between editors that has reached an impasse, typically 15+ comments is my minimum threshold for "extensive" discussion but that is a stretch and would typically involve in-depth comments as well. The talkpage discussion is almost there, but still premature per the opening time and lack of detailed/in-depth comments back and forth with a 15+ minimum. You are welcome to refile the case but if more discussion has not yet occurred, it too will likely be closed as "premature/lack of extensive discussion". Cheers, Drcrazy102 (talk) 09:14, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for the update and guidance. More discussion has occurred...but it's nothing new or worthwhile. It has in fact branched off into another kind of "face saving" discussion (which this particular topic always does). I'll refile maybe at the end of the week and hopefully that will do it.Trinacrialucente (talk) 17:36, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Three Metallic Arts, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Savant. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
