There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Goblin Face (talk) 03:21, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Careful with words like slander

Accusing Wikipedia editors of slander could be considered a violation of WP:NLT - I'd suggest caution and restraint with the use of such language. Simonm223 (talk) 17:06, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

That would be rather hypocritical of me since I just agreed with two other editors that the discussion was happening at the wrong venue. And for a warning like this there's nothing out of place with going to your talk page - it is, after all, a space that gives you a bit more privacy with the warning and I wasn't trying to turn this into a bigger fight. Again, simply suggesting caution and restraint using language that could be construed as a legal threat. Simonm223 (talk) 18:15, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Arbitration Enforcement

There is a thread at Arbitration enforcement which concerns you. Second Quantization (talk) 23:28, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

Topic banned from Rupert Sheldrake in accordance with the terms at WP:TBAN

You have been sanctioned per 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:Requests for arbitration/Pseudoscience#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions for that decision. 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 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. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 06:57, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Words

Hi, I was just reading your comment over at User_talk:PhiChiPsiOmega#Futility and found some parts hard to understand until I realised you meant these words. [1] [2] [3] Hope this is useful. MartinPoulter (talk) 12:19, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

Yes, it appears I fat-fingered the keyboard. I assume you got the drift of the message, though. Tom Butler (talk) 15:50, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
