			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 ], ], or ]. 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. ] (]) 02:07, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

arb case

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. Kevin Gorman (talk) 02:07, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

Thanks Kevin, and good luck with the case. (pinging Giano as I think it unlikely he is watching this page) pablo 14:17, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for the ping Pablo. The edit thank thing does not seem not be working this evening, so I'll say 'thank you'. Giano (talk) 19:27, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

You're welcome, Giano - it seemed the right thing to do. Luckily the simple and easy method of writing on another editor's talk page seems to function correctly. pablo 20:01, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

This is to inform you that an attempt is being made to overturn an RfC that you voted on

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:

Misplaced Pages: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 Misplaced Pages 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)

Hi.. you appear to have made a mistake. 'Twee' is the Scots word for too much Scottishness. Much like Americans use the word 'kitsch'. I know because I'm Scottish. It's not guess work. as proof, here's a link: https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/twee

Dava4444 (talk) 07:00, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

Neither that link (or the entry in the longer Oxford dictionary http://www.oed.com/view/Entry/207965?rskey=IKXAtF&result=3#eid) make any mention of Scots or "Scottishness." pablo 09:53, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

So how is 'kitsch' any better being an American word?

Dava4444 (talk) 22:36, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

I didn't make any comment on the word being better. Just stated a fact - it is not Scots. Which it isn't.
p.s. "Kitsch" is a German word and has been part of the English language since at least 1926. pablo 13:31, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

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)

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)

Liane Moriarty

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. Laurier (talk) 15:48, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

Always precious

Ten years ago, you were found precious. That's what you are, always. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 04:59, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
