Hi, I am the guy who edited the plot of Bhramam multiple times as the one which keeps getting reverted to is horrible in explanation and has extremely bad grammar. Wikipedia has a notice that plots of films should be short and crisp for the reader to understand. Please compare my plot and the other plot (reverted one) and check which is better Thank You — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.51.1.229 (talk) 15:29, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-10-11T15:29:00.000Z","author":"2.51.1.229","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-2.51.1.229-2021-10-11T15:29:00.000Z-\"Vandalism\"","replies":[]}}-->

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bubungan dua belas, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Malay. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

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 the Arab–Israeli conflict. 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.

• @Infinity Knight: The above notifies you that articles like Mondoweiss are under discretionary sanctions. That requires editors to focus on article content and, if responding in a discussion, to respond substantively to points raised. Editors who are unable to collaborate, or who are unable to accept a consensus, may be topic banned.

@Johnuniq Thank you for the warning. Could you provide specific diffs so I could improve my editing?

I received my first warning a year ago about the discretionary sanctions for rasing a BLP concern. here.

Regarding the current warning. I asked a question here: Wikipedia_talk:Verifiability#ONUS:_procedural_question. According to User:Blueboar Usually, however, the correct conclusion is “no consensus”… which means both “sides” in the debate may have to compromise a bit. Do you see consensus in the Mondoweiss discussion?

Thank you for fixing your edit at Talk:Mondoweiss. However, and particularly for a topic under discretionary sanctions, comments should be signed and should engage with the discussion. Your fixed comment consists of three copy/pastes of comments made by another editor two weeks ago, and it follows "If you have a proposal to make, make it." The proper way to respond to such a comment would be to briefly state what your proposal is (an actionable and clear proposal to improve the article by removing/adding/changing text). If that proposal is stated elsewhere, you should identify it. Your previous comment from two days ago (by the way, we are supposed to use {{pb}}, not <p>) is equally opaque. Comments must be clear—are you just chatting or you supporting a specific editing proposal? The wording has now been changed, but if you are concerned that "webzine not found in the source" you should give a clue how you would fix that. In the same way, I can't tell what you intended with the rest of that comment. Perhaps it means something to those familiar with the topic but it looks like a braindump with no connection to the discussion.

Thank you for chiming in, Johnuniq. Let me quote Blueboar from here A lot depends on the reasons given for the various opinions. I have seen five well reasoned, policy based arguments in opposition to an addition out-weigh ten poorly reasoned “I just like it” arguments for inclusion… and five well reasoned arguments for inclusion out weigh ten “I don’t like it” arguments for exclusion..

You might not be reading the situation clearly so let me put it more directly. The above discretionary sanctions notice alerts you to the fact that special procedures apply to the topic. Even if that were not the case, it is necessary that editors engage in a clear manner on article talk pages. Editors who are unable to do that will be topic banned.

An article you recently created, Shaqdi, is not suitable 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.

Having concerns about comments that have been evaluated by OpenAI's classifier as "unclear" or "likely AI-generated" is a reasonable position to hold. It's worth noting that while some comments may have been improved through the use of automatic tools, the responsibility for the content on Wikipedia lies with human editors and not merely their spell or grammar checkers.

The following sanction now applies to you:

You are indefinitely topic-banned from the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly construed.

You have been sanctioned because you have repeatedly attempted to weaponize administrative processes within the topic area, after a previous warning:

1. Attempt to sanction topic-area opponent for policy-compliant edit (I AGF on this one, but presented for context)
2. Warned by Bishonen for civil POV-pushing in an attempt to sanction a topic-area opponent
3. Attempt to sanction the same opponent as in (1), under the same misapplication of policy, for conduct that was even less objectionable than the first time.
4. More selective misapplication of policy, this time against the admin who told you that you were wrong in (3)

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles#Final decision and, if applicable, the contentious topics procedure. 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.  -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (they|xe|she) 16:17, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231030161700","author":"Tamzin","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Tamzin-20231030161700-Notice_that_you_are_now_subject_to_an_arbitration_enforcement_sanction","replies":["c-Riposte97-20231031042700-Tamzin-20231030161700"]}}-->

@Tamzin - I have some concerns about this action.

It seems to me that reasons (1) and (3) ought more properly to be construed as asking for advice/comment, not asking you to take some kind of action against another editor. The quoted text under reason (4) says that the administrator in question might seem to be doing certain things. It's a conditional statement which I'd hardly call a wilful misrepresentation of policy. Ironically, it may just be uncivil.

We are also potentially stretching the meaning of 'uninvolved administrator' when the user's comments in (1) and (3) were directed to you, and you participated in the conversation in (4) in opposition to the opinion offered by @Infinity Knight.

Finally, there is a real question about whether any of the four reasons cited actually fall within Wikipedia:Arbitration/Index/Palestine-Israel articles#Definition of the "area of conflict". To my reading they do not, though granted, I am relatively new here.

I have declined your second appeal to AE. I would like to ensure that you are aware that, while there is an appeals process, it is expected that it will be used within reason. Appealing little more than a week after your prior appeal was declined does not qualify as "within reason". It is normally expected that if an appeal is declined, an editor will wait a minimum of six months prior to another attempt. I would strongly advise that you take that time to consider how you might make a more convincing request. If you file more appeals before that time has elapsed, which in this case would be prior to 12 May 2024, it is very likely that it will be considered disruptive and handled accordingly. So, I very much encourage you not to do that.

Getting banned indefinitely from discussing the Arab-Israeli conflict due to my comments does seem pretty absurd. I'm not entirely sure if my points were considered, which is why I decided to appeal. The appeal decisions exhibited a deficiency in an evidence-based approach, predominantly depending on opinions and subjective arguments rather than being rooted in verifiable and factual information. There is no indication that the closing administrator reviewed the provided diffs. The ongoing need for revising versions of the topic remedies could suggest that administrative intervention isn't consistently helpful and doesn't seem to work overall.

Got any signs of someone trying to put the smackdown on a rival in the topic or playing fast and loose with the rules in those diffs? Still waiting for an answer on that one. I've seen another admin, Doug's probably crossed paths with them, pulling some sketchy moves with their powers.

I'm going to set aside the accusation that I was somehow biased because I provided neutral clarification in response to an AN/I post you made a year ago, and focus on what you're saying about Zero0000: I want to be clear, Infinity Knight, that while there is a limited exception to bans for "legitimate and necessary dispute resolution", attempting to relitigate old grudges within the topic area does not fall under that. I understand that you're upset by how things have gone, and we traditionally give recently-banned users a bit of wiggle room to vent.

I can't speak for anyone else here, but if you think I have any problem challenging another admin when I feel they've made a mistake, you should probably look through my own history. But your conduct here is just convincing me further that the decision made was correct.

And I took that as genuine, Infinity Knight. I have nothing against you as a person. I have nothing against most of the people I've sanctioned under ARBPIA, on either side. It's a very difficult time in the world, and many communities and many individuals are being pushed to their breaking point over the matter of Israel and Palestine. I see that every day among Zionist friends and pro-Palestinian friends alike. Between the rawness of the recent traumas and the proliferation of propaganda, I really can't blame people for having strong feelings. But the admin team has been tasked by ArbCom with keeping the peace in the topic area, and so that's what I'm doing, and what Seraphimblade is doing, and what Doug is doing. It's our own kind of tikkun olam: We can't solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and we can't mend the souls of the people it affects directly and indirectly, but we can do our best at making sure discussions tend in the direction of making the encyclopedia better, and in turn bringing humanity the best information available. (And inevitably, the people we sanction will feel they were making the encyclopedia better, but that's the nature of the beast.)

I do hope to see you around, editing other topics. I like that you're someone who says kind things to people—not because I'm a sucker for flattery, but because that's just not something we see enough of in this community. We need more niceness. I try to bring that niceness to the wiki, but I don't always succeed, and there are some things like TBANning or blocking people where I'm always going to seem like a bitch no matter how hard I try. But one thing I try to remind people who've been TBANned is, this means no one wanted to indef you. I'm not afraid to block an experienced editor if I think it's what's best for the 'pedia; I've done so to much "bigger names" in the past. But I didn't feel that here, and apparently no one else did either. You have something to offer the project, just maybe not about this topic, not at this time. In six months, a year, whenever, I'd love the chance to support an unban request. With the utmost sincerity, few things make me happier than getting to lift a sanction I've imposed. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (they|xe|she) 06:22, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231118062200","author":"Tamzin","type":"comment","level":9,"id":"c-Tamzin-20231118062200-Infinity_Knight-20231118055400","replies":["c-Infinity_Knight-20231118062800-Tamzin-20231118062200"]}}-->

It's a bummer, but there's no solid process for checking up on how administrators behave because they're the ones doing the reviewing themselves.

I broadly agree that we have inadequate processes for reviewing admin misconduct, but that's a conclusion I've reached in the course of bringing three admins to ArbCom and getting them desysopped, as well as contributing evidence for two other desysops, not to mention times I've called out other admins that were resolved short of ArbCom. I hope that establishes that I'm not afraid to stand against other admins when I feel they've violated policy. This, simply, was not such a case. But all of that is neither here nor there, and discussing it further still toes the line of your topic ban.

All good on my end, Tamzin. Is slapping a ban on an editor for commenting on admin behavior the right move? Look, you've admitted that you weren't certain about the right response, but you were convinced that I was trying to "weaponize Wikipedia processes". Just so we're clear, that wasn't my intention. The problem is, administrators are routinely banning contributors who are clearly making a positive impact, and then they're calling these editors a waste of time.

If you expect to have an eventual appeal accepted, you will need to start looking at your own behavior instead of blaming admins or imagined process failures.

You're entitled to that opinion. But your appeal has been declined, twice, and continuing to complain about the matter you were banned over is, obviously, a violation of that ban.

Hey Tamzin, you're really sticking to the whole "weaponizing" thing, huh? Truth is, you're the one working forces. No need to pretend like what I'm saying is being looked at without bias or even looked at period. [15] -> [16]. I didn't catch your name in the earlier talk about the admin going all rogue. According to the diff provided it took you 15 mins [17] -> [18] to jump in order to advocate for misuse of administrative powers, you were evidently the first one to pop up. Seems only fair to assume—this editor's got an issue with an admin, then another admin steps in to back them up, and bam, the editor gets hit with a ban.

@Seraphimblade or @Doug Weller: I learned my lesson a while ago that sanctioning a user over comments that include insults against oneself is usually a bad idea, even when it falls on the right side of WP:INVOLVED. I don't actually give a damn about whatever IK wants to accuse me of; I've been called far worse. But I do think I've been pretty clear here that continuing to litigate this is a TBAN violation, and yet here we are. Could one of you please assess if further sanctions are necessary? Thanks.

Interesting, @Tamzin. I've mentioned this before, and it's important to emphasize that I want nothing but happiness and positivity for you. Sometimes, facing the truth can be challenging, truth hurts, as Ben Finegold aptly puts it. My perspective is based on common sense and a sincere desire for your well-being. There's no need to pretend that your actions went unnoticed by uninvolved editors—they expressed their concerns with We are also potentially stretching the meaning of 'uninvolved administrator' when the user's comments in (1) and (3) were directed to you, and you participated in the conversation in (4) in opposition to the opinion offered by @Infinity Knight.

Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."

InfinityKnight, did you use an LLM to create the article Interpretations of Pandora's box in Greek mythology? On a spot check, the article appears to make fabricated claims unsupported by the cited sources. Can you, for example, provide the exact quote from the source Multivariate analysis in ecology and systematics: panacea or Pandora's box? that supports the following text that you added to the article:

"James, Frances C., and Charles E. McCulloch discuss the role and agency of Pandora in opening the box. They explain that Pandora's role is often seen as passive as she is usually depicted as simply opening the box and allowing all of the evils to escape. However, the authors argue that this interpretation is a confusion between the objectives of the method (multivariate analysis) and the objectives of the researcher. They state that Pandora's role should be seen as active, as she made a conscious decision to open the box, and her agency in doing so is significant."

As far as I can tell on a quick browse-through, the source contains no such discussion and is tangential to the purported subject of the article.

Acknowledge that the quote and the mentioned source above are not ideal, James, Frances C., and Charles E. McCulloch discuss the potential misuse of multivariate analysis in ecology and systematics, likening it to Pandora's box due to the risks associated with interpretability judgments.
