Ping

I'm watching the Olivier RfC with interest, and found your comments sensible. About the ping: You pinged Ceoil twice, and don't have to ping Cassianto and SchroCat who claim they left Wikipedia but both commented under IP names. I wish they'd return and sign with recognizable names. - I took part in the 2015 discussion which you may want to consult as well, if only for background. I was taken to arbitration enforcement then, because of me questioning if really the editors who improve an article to FA status can remove a feature that has served readers for many years. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:42, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

I just went back to 2017. The whole thing is pretty silly. To me it's a handful of editors watching the article who have been blocking the change for years. Basically their argument is they don't like it, there's no rule that it's mandatory, and it's a settled issue that should never be questioned. Some of the editors conduct towards other editors for bringing it up is appalling. I don't get it. Nemov (talk) 13:46, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

If you don't go back to 2015 for this article, and 2013 for the first arbcase (and I had no idea about arbitration ...), and 2005 for the beginning of the infobox wars, you will not get it. I want them to end no more no less. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:57, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

I mean, I just went back to those who have commented since 2017 for the pings. I'm familiar with the long history, but consensus can change over time. Since this keeps coming up the RfC should close the book on it for awhile. Nemov (talk) 16:20, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

Infoboxes

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 discussions about infoboxes and to edits adding, deleting, collapsing, or removing verifiable information from infoboxes. 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.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. 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.
