| Hello, | |||
| == 3 RR, cont. == | |||
| The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, 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 ''''''. | |||
| From the Revert Rule: | |||
| You do not have to be an Administrator to participate. | |||
| "I've been blocked under 3RR! What do I do? | |||
| The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ] . | |||
| First, check if you actually did make a ''fourth revert'' '''in 24 hours''' or very close to it. | |||
| Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns. | |||
| * If you didn't, you should email the admin who blocked you (or another admin), politely point this out and ask to be unblocked." | |||
| Kind Regards, | |||
| An even cursory reading of this shows that it takes 4 reverts in 24 hours to trigger the revert rule. Just because administrators have misused, or abused, the rule before does not mean it was the right decision under the rule. That it had "popular support" is similarly not evidence that it ws the right move. | |||
| ] | |||
| I get the idea. Nobody wants stale revert wars, and this rule seems like a reasonable way to prevent them. But it is a rule, with specific parameters, and if an administrator wants to interpret it in a manner completely inconsistent with the "letter of the law," that's his problem, not mine. As far as the "spirit of the rule" goes, I don't quite follow. This rule is bright line, and sets our specific guidelines for when one should and should not be blocked for violating the 3 revert rule. Hence, the "spirit" of the law is found in its "letter," and not in the clearly erroneous interpretation of overzealous administrators.--] 01:05, 30 September 2005 (UTC) | |||

| :: "According to the Bahia Gay Group, there is an average of one homosexual murder every three days in Brazil, putting the country in first place worldwide for "homocide," as the group calls the murders (LP, Jan. 23, 1997)." | |||
| ::"But when a few of us in GLF began scouring libraries and the basement archives of museums and the public record office, we discovered buried fragments of past queer lives. It was shocking to learn that gay men faced the death penalty until 1861, and life imprisonment until 1967. Via contacts with the queer rights movement in Germany, we began to piece together details of the Nazi bid to exterminate homosexuals. From this history of "homocide", we liberated the pink triangle that the Nazis forced gay concentration camp prisoners to wear - turning it into a symbol of pride and defiance." | |||

ArbCom Elections 2016: Voting now open!
Hello, Causa sui. Voting in the 2016 Arbitration Committee elections is open from Monday, 00:00, 21 November through Sunday, 23:59, 4 December to all unblocked users who have registered an account before Wednesday, 00:00, 28 October 2016 and have made at least 150 mainspace edits before Sunday, 00:00, 1 November 2016.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2016 election, please review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:19, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
