Question about topic ban
Hey, you applied an AP2 topic ban to me months ago so I figured I'd ask you. I've noticed an egregious BLP violation at Spencer Cox (politician), but I'm prohibited from correcting it as the article falls under AP2. The page says that Cox labels himself as a "centrist, moderate, liberal Republican". However, none of the sources back this up, and I can find no record of him saying this on the internet; the only thing he says in any of the sources is that he considers himself a conservative (in the TIME source). This edit was made months ago by a user with no explanation. I have no idea if it's a violation of my topic ban to bring this up, but is there any way you can correct this flagrant BLP violation per WP:BLPREMOVE? Toa Nidhiki05 13:40, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Question on when to report a suspected sock
I saw you banned for being a sock. Based on some of their behavior at Talk:Metagame, I assumed they weren't actually a new editor because of the way they were quoting policies. But when reviewing signs of sockpuppetry, I thought this could also be considered WP:PRECOCIOUS. The guidance on reporting a sock says you need to have specific examples of behavior. With this editor, was their behavior at Metagame enough to report or to reach out to a checkuser? I just want to have a better sense going forwards in case I run into similar behavior again. Thanks!

Charles III requested move discussion
There is a new requested move discussion in progress for the Charles III article. Since you participated in the previous discussion, I thought you might like to know about this one. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 06:47, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
