A barnstar for you!

I have no idea what this means, but thanks! TricksterWolf (talk) 23:08, 7 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re: your comments

Hi TricksterWolf, I'll leave a substantive response at Talk:Compact_space#Edit_war_over_.22fixed_distance.22 in a minute, but I wanted to make two non-substantive remarks as well: (1) it is odd to assume that I didn't read or understand your edit summary -- of course I did both, I just think (as my edit summary noted) that your edit was not an improvement to the sentence in question; (2) it is also odd to refer to an exchange at stage 2 of the WP:BRD cycle as an "edit war." Best, JBL (talk) 02:26, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. For 1), your revert summary suggested to me that you didn't read my edit summary but I apologize for jumping to conclusions. For 2), others who edit Wikipedia frequently have used "edit war" as a term for any immediate opinion-oriented revert of an edit without discussion on the talk page. I don't know what the appropriate terminology is and again apologize if I sent the wrong message; I did not intend to exaggerate. TricksterWolf (talk) 03:25, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your responses; it's always a bit tough to manage issues of tone online, and I apologize for any brusqueness in my own comments. --JBL (talk) 03:55, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Discretionary sanctions

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 living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. 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.

This note still scares the pants off of me on those rare days I actually check my talk page. TricksterWolf (talk) 00:03, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
