Note

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to, (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

	Dead Fish Award
	I hereby award you the first-of-its-kind Dead Fish Award for this very dry edit. --Netoholic @ 18:36, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Let me just ask that you revert it, just for the sake of MOS:DABINT, not for the chuckles. The variations are many and they are cleanly divided into sections, no reason not to reflect it in the intro. -- Netoholic @ 18:49, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

If you want to revert it, I won't interfere. But I think that most readers will get the gist using the shorter version. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 18:52, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Done. If we had a Featured Disambiguation Page classification, this would be on the shortlist for it, and the variations are part of its charm informative value. Crazy how often this same basic utterance is reused in music especially. -- Netoholic @ 19:21, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Thanks

...for that series of edits to Gamergate. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 11:41, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Just trying to understand for myself what the whole thing is. "Torturously complex" doesn't begin to describe it. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 19:15, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

I want to give you my thanks as well. Normally I'd use the thanks tool but you've been prolific and the sum total is just great. Goodonye. --Jorm (talk) 22:34, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

A cup of coffee for you!

For when you have to deal with tiredness, or tiresome discussions with grumpy users. Best. Calthinus (talk) 23:38, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Question

Discretionary sanctions 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 recently 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 any 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 am posting this on your talkpage out of an abundance of caution solely because you recently edited Talk:Sarah Jeong and, as the message says, not suggesting any policy violation by you. Abecedare (talk) 01:48, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
