Hi
Now the edits has been reverted again. What is going on at Moors murders.BabbaQ (talk) 10:48, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
 * WP:FAR will be the way to go. As soon as I've read up on it, that is.    Cassianto Talk  10:50, 7 August 2019 (UTC)


 * I'll put it up at FAR myself if you can't work out how to do it; this nonsense has got to stop. Eric   Corbett  13:42, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

Sorry about the misclick
Small phone, moving car :) -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:18, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * worries at all, thanks for the note.  Cassianto Talk  20:33, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Or was it small car moving phone? :-) Cheers to you both and feel free to remove this lame joke if you wish Cass. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 20:37, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Well, the phone couldn't have been that small if it was moving a car... - SchroCat (talk) 20:41, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Yowza that is funny. Thanks for the laugh out loud moment S. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 20:44, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Ha, c'mon,, this is a place of misery, drama, trolls and rogue admins. We can't be laughing and joking around here.    Cassianto Talk  20:48, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * HeeHee. MarnetteD&#124;Talk 20:55, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Americans... sigh... Lourdes 05:26, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign.
Ya may wanna sign your 4:35 post at AN, so it doesn't appear as part of another editors' post. GoodDay (talk) 04:38, 17 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I missed that one.  Cassianto Talk  04:44, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

I wish you were right,
but I doubt this will come to pass. My guess is that they will align themselves with a protected group. I could be completely off base though; it's just a hunch. — Ched : ?    —  17:53, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I think you're right . The current committee are beyond useless and are wholly complicit in the continuing problems we have on this website. I wouldn't be surprised if I was blocked for saying that MJL should be admonished. That's how they usually "solve" problems, by ignoring the cause and dealing with the result. Good to see you, but the way.   Cassianto Talk  18:24, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I've found a member here and there over the years that is a benefit to the project, but between Arbcom as a group and the WMF T&S folks - I fully appreciate the phrase "between a rock and a hard place". — Ched :  ?    —  18:38, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I see you have just raised the gendering issue at the case request. I'm not sure that is the origin of the story. They're recently replied to me on their talk page and referenced the GGTF case, where they suggest that the main fault was not treating Eric as harshly as another party. They are apparently familiar with the other party due to shared political views.I'm surprised that a relatively newbie even knows of the case, given how long ago it was, but they're clearly quite familiar with it and seem to bear a grudge of some sort. FWIW, I was accused by someone else in that thread of having created an attack page in the run-up to the GGTF case. It wasn't, and I still think the subject meets WP:GNG, although in retrospect it was probably ill-advised for me to draft it given the dispute I was involved with. - Sitush (talk) 07:43, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I know the "other party" of which speak.  I did mention it, but only because if MJL's user page update yesterday.  To me, at least, it appeared to be the first mention of it, which excludes any intent on Eric's part, as prior to that, I could see no mention of MJL's preferred pronoun. I've adjusted my comment to highlight there being a possibility that this may've been a pre-existing complaint from another venue; but it is one that I am not familiar with so I couldn't comment.

 * If EC used a particular pronoun, it may well be that he had encountered the other user's doppelganger account, or one of their earlier usernames., etc. ——  SerialNumber  54129  09:05, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah, thanks SN.  Cassianto Talk  09:11, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * And I'm ok with using whatever pronoun a person wants (apparently part of the current Wikimedia recruitment poster) - but I'm not so sure that requiring different pronouns depending on who the user is falls within out policies.  One person can refer to them as "she", but everyone else has to use "they"?  WTH kind of BS is that?  — Ched (talk) 11:08, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm reminded of this, . It is so funny that one would be forgiven for thinking it was a comedy sketch. Sadly, it isn't.   Cassianto Talk  11:49, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Thank you
For alerting me to that. By the way, your content on Dan Leno is superb: I've just revisited it. Fortnum (talk) 21:14, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
 * It was very much a joint effort, and is getting on a bit now, but I'll take the compliment. Thank you.   Cassianto Talk  22:53, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
