Hi Pablo - I appear to have misremembered who actually got banned from participating in the case; Giano hasn't been (and Giano, if you happen across this edit, I apologize for the error.) However, Courcelles banned Viriditas from participating without specifying a particular policy violation for mocking my health and genetic mutations across a number of pages. Such a ban could have been placed under WP:NDP, WP:NPA, or WP:HARASS. All three policies specifically cover attacks or harrassment related to disability; if I was writing a motion related to the case, I would likely stress NDP and HARASS over NPA, because NDP is a WMF board level policy (which covers harrassment due to disability and as a board level policy must be enforced by local projects and cannot be weakened by them) and HARASS, since it covers more general patterns rather than specific attacks (which is what Viriditas was banned from the case for.) I'm only posting here since I'm preparing to post evidence, which means I won't be able to use my section to respond to questions.

This is to inform you that an attempt is being made to overturn an RfC that you voted on (2 RfCs, actually, one less than six months ago and another a year ago). The new RfC is at:

Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#RfC: Allow private schools to be characterized as non-affiliated as well as religious, in infobox?

Specifically, it asks that "religion = none" be allowed in the infobox.

The first RfC that this new RfC is trying to overturn is:

• 15 June 2015 RfC: RfC: Religion infobox entries for individuals that have no religion.

The result of that RfC was "unambiguously in favour of omitting the parameter altogether for 'none' " and despite the RfC title, additionally found that "There's no obvious reason why this would not apply to historical or fictional characters, institutions etc.", and that nonreligions listed in the religion entry should be removed when found "in any article".

The second RfC that this new RfC is trying to overturn is:

• 31 December 2015 RfC: RfC: Religion in infoboxes.

The result of that RfC was that the "in all Wikipedia articles, without exception, nonreligions should not be listed in the Religion= parameter of the infobox.".

Note: I am informing everyone who commented on the above RfCs, whether they supported or opposed the final consensus. --Guy Macon (talk) 03:11, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-06-26T03:11:00.000Z","author":"Guy Macon","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Guy_Macon-2017-06-26T03:11:00.000Z-This_is_to_inform_you_that_an_attempt_is_being_made_to_overturn_an_RfC_that_you","replies":[]}}-->

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Rachel McKinnon. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. It is not acceptable to misgender people in talk page comments.

I'll tolerate that on your own user talk page but if you try that line pretty much anywhere else then you can look forward to warnings or a trip to one of the administrators' noticeboards. Please understand that there is nothing positive in this for you. It just makes you look petty and vindictive. Please go back to behaving constructively on other articles and just steer clear of any topics where your personal views prevent you from contributing constructively. --DanielRigal (talk) 20:31, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-09-03T20:31:00.000Z","author":"DanielRigal","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-DanielRigal-2019-09-03T20:31:00.000Z-Pablo_X-2019-09-03T20:11:00.000Z","replies":["c-Pablo_X-2019-09-04T06:32:00.000Z-DanielRigal-2019-09-03T20:31:00.000Z"]}}-->

I’m about as interested in what you will “tolerate” (o the arrogance!) as I am in McKinnon’s subjective and self-constructed sense of “gender”.  pablo 06:32, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-09-04T06:32:00.000Z","author":"Pablo X","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Pablo_X-2019-09-04T06:32:00.000Z-DanielRigal-2019-09-03T20:31:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"pablo"}}-->

There was an announcement on this page that her novel would be adapted into a television series, with a source. A few times, someone changed the text to past tense: according to the new text, the series premiered this year. I reverted those edits, waiting for someone to add it again, with a source. You did just that a few days ago, so thank you. In your edit summary (which was right after mine), you simply write "eejit". I'm not sure if this is directed at me, but it really seems to be, and I just want to let you know I do not appreciate that.

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
