This means that those in the Researcher user group and Checkusers who are not administrators can now access Special:RevisionDelete. The users able to view the special page after this change are the 3 users in the Researcher group, as there are currently no checkusers who are not already administrators. (T301928)

Issues with user Rooveaouravevo

Greetings! If you have time, your help is required here. There is Rooveaouravevo who doen't want cooperate, but only promotes his OR and POV: [10], [11] even after numerous attempts [12], [13] to explain to him that is not how it works here. After that account started enage in insults and personal attacks as you can see: [14] and here [15]. TyronMcLannister (talk) 14:49, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm reading the ANI thread. Your responses to other people disagreeing with your actions is very telling: "Why do you think that your boorish opinion is somehow appropriate here?" Are you actually going to be rude to other editors? With edit summaries like this one and removing other people's comments because you disagree with them, are you sure that you are not the one who should be blocked for NOTHERE or incivility? It would be wise to know that reporting someone to ANI does not grant the reporter immunity. Granted, I'm only talking about you right now, not Rooveaouravevo (which I admit I have not looked into in great detail, as I do not typically handle user conduct disputes), but since you approached me, I consider it perfectly legitimate to look into your own history first. And my advice for you is this: knock it off with your attitude. Please. If you're going to be hostile to people who respond to your own ANI thread and claim that you're "100% right", I don't think you should be contributing here, because people of that attitude are about as compatible with Wikipedia as frosting is on fish sticks.
Take my advice however you will. If I do come back to find a snarky response, though, I will seriously consider blocking you myself. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 18:14, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
