Hello, I'm ], one of the editor on Misplaced Pages. I hear that you are one of the admins on Misplaced Pages, so I want to ask you for help. In the few months before, the article ] had an user name ] was vandalism the article so many. Since the ], there was no third place match. But he always edited the third and the fourth ranking on the ], which lead to many user have to reverted the article many times. He always said that the reason was he used it from the AFC website, although there was no source about it. I have already gave him a warning for this, but he said threatly for me and always said by using CAPSLOCK to tell many user when they said to him politely. I think this user not only used incorrectly sources but he also one of the dangerous user that threaten anyone. So this message today is can you help me block this user please? Because if anyone warning to him about it, he will not change and still violated to them. Thank you for reading this message. Hope you have a good time during this week. ] (]) 07:35, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Happy New Year

Hello HJ Mitchell. I wish you a Happy New Year for 2025.

On the talk page of Philip Cross, I have expressed the hope that his indefinite block given in October 2022 could be reviewed by an Admin, as Philip has made over 200,000 helpful edits to Misplaced Pages and as per WP:AGF, my view is that Philip's edits were not an intentionally malicious attempt to bend the rules of his British Politics ban.

However, I don't know if an appeal has to come directly from Philip himself for a review. If that is the case, then it would be up to Philip himself to submit an appeal. Regards, Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 01:27, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
