DYK for Henry Weston Farnsworth

On 12 October 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Henry Weston Farnsworth, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Henry Weston Farnsworth served in the French Foreign Legion and was one of the first American soldiers killed in World War I? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Henry Weston Farnsworth. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Henry Weston Farnsworth), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Aaron Hernandez:

If you keep stating things about Aaron Hernandez in Wikipedia's voice when they are opinions or hearsay, I will take this to an appropriate noticeboard. Wikipedia has rules we are supposed to follow. One is WP:YESPOV. Read it. Another is WP:In-text attribution. Read it. Another is WP:Undue weight. Read it. We should not be giving undue weight to a book or single source, even if the book was written by Hernandez's brother. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 23:42, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Aaron Hernandez, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Armored car (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Redirects

I've undone the redirects - because the redirect has a non-trivial history, including the merger discussion I think it would be better to set up the new article at another disambiguation (maybe Red Knights (fraternal society) ). Seraphim System ^(talk) 15:20, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

Nice catch. I didn't see the discussion on the Flaming Circle article. I made the change as you suggested. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 17:57, 29 November 2018 (UTC)

Please review your behaviours

I deliberately stopped editing for a while in the autumn to give myself space as I found your editorial style aggressive and disrespectful. I had hoped that this might change. But things are just as bad. Your recent edit history shows that you are focused almost exclusively in making edits that remove, revert or target edits only I have made. I find this intimidating (surprising) and bordering on harassment. This is accompanied by threat after threat of "edit warring" - seemingly as a way to demonstrate to administrators that I am being unreasonable. My interest is in ensuring articles are neutral, easy to ready, informative and factually correct. I don't care if they tell a good story or a bad story concerning the Catholic church. Where there are problems to be solved to make articles better than I'm happy to collaborate to come up with sensible answers. What I do not like in other editors is a sense of possessiveness - that makes editing combative and unpleasant. Can I encourage you to be open minded and to approach editing in the spirit of collaboration. Otherwise we are going to get no-where. Thanks. Contaldo80 (talk) 21:19, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

The edits you complain about were on articles that have been stable for weeks and months. No one else has made any edits on any of these articles, so there have been no edits on these articles to build off of, tweak, or revert. I am not targeting you. I have even thanked you publicly for your constructive edits. However, there have been other editors who have reverted you in addition to me. I am glad to collaborate with you, but only if you understand the principles of consensus, edit warring, and BRD. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 14:18, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Joseph Pelletier moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Joseph Pelletier, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. ~~Cheers~~Mgbo120 18:54, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

WP:ENGVAR

Was it by reflex you changed from American English to Commonwealth English? /mobilise/mobilize/? Hmm, no, you were altering for the location?

Perhaps it would be a good idea to try to expand such minimal stubs as Edward P. Murray. There are those who doubt relying on a oral history alone, without more formal documentation. Myself, I support the use of oral history here, and have been trying to advocate for it for the last 10 years, anit would be a shame to give the doubters any opening.

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

You are prohibited from making any reports about Roscelese at any administrative noticeboard, including but not limited to WP:AE and WP:AN/I.

You have been sanctioned for the reasons provided in response to this arbitration enforcement request.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Christianity and Sexuality#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Thryduulf (talk) 11:45, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

Sorry this backfired so hard. Luckily it's probably the easiest sanction on the project to keep...it's hard to accidentally create a report about somebody. I wouldn't worry too much if I were you. Just keep trying to get along with R. If it's something that really bugs you, you can appeal in a year or so with an apology for the WP:HOUNDING-like behavior, an explanation of the misunderstanding about reverts (which I'll back you up on), and a clear commitment not to try to be a parole officer for ideological opponents. ~Awilley (talk) 04:42, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
