Thank you, I will take a look. Editing on a phone isn't going to cut it, it appears

DS Alert

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-1932 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.

I've received notice and skimmed the expectations. Was I supposed to comment on an automated form message? I don't remember reading that. TuffStuffMcG (talk) 20:30, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

indentation

Hi, I noticed you sometimes insert a comment in a discussion thread without indenting it. That makes it difficult to see what you are responding to. User:Enterprisey/reply-link is a handy tool that does this the indenting for you. Instructions on how to indent manually, using colons, are at Help:Talk_pages#Replying_to_an_existing_thread and Wikipedia:Indentation. Thanks! Vexations (talk) 13:16, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

thanks, I will try this. Yes, it has been difficult to do anything on a mobile. I'm just using colons in a roundabout wayTuffStuffMcG (talk) 13:24, 24 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict Of Interest guidelines

Given several of your posts and your pattern of editing on Proud Boys and Talk:Proud Boys, especially your interest in WP:PROMO advertising a Proud Boys website URL, I suggest you read the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest guidelines and Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide regarding any affiliations you may have and the proper methods of disclosing them. Thanks, IHateAccounts (talk) 16:24, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Very funny. I'm not a proud boy.TuffStuffMcG (talk) 17:29, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Get neutral, uninvolved, disinterested editors to review suggestions". This is a good idea. Maybe we can get some of the Hell's Angels editors to assist.TuffStuffMcG (talk) 20:35, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Maybe we can get some of the Hell's Angels editors to assist" is that a thinly veiled threat? Bacondrum (talk) 23:20, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How? The people who edit the Hells Angel's article page? What are they going to do - edit differently?TuffStuffMcG (talk) 23:22, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Personal attacks

Hi TuffStuff, can I ask you politely to please not attack me or other editors. I'm engaging in a civil discussion, and we disagree, that's not a big deal people disagree all the time - if you focus on the content and debate that we can disagree in a civil manner. No need to get personal and uncivil ie: "You are asking a question to further the censorship of wikipedia" and "at a certain point a good faith judge would recuse themselves from mediating or arbitrating a topic if their bias became overwhelming and precluded them from doing so fairly". Can we please focus on content, not other editors. Thanks in advance. Bacondrum (talk) 23:18, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm confused, aren't you trying to remove official URL's of controversial organizations from wikipedia?

I disagree with that agenda. Maybe I don't know what censorship is if that doesn't meet the criteria.

Regarding admitted bias - it isn't a problem for users, but it is a problem for moderators and other administrators.TuffStuffMcG (talk) 23:27, 28 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
