'''Updates:'''
No edits since May 15th, and I wonder what's up. Shouldn't the bot working on its Infobox settlement task (6.2)? --] (]) 04:16, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
* ''']''': The Movement Charter Drafting Committee recently held the first conversations regarding the ]. The MCDC has received valuable feedback from different communities and the Committees during the community input period. The report of the community input will be shared in May, while the updated version of the ratification methodology will be presented between September and November 2023.
:Yes, I need to get rolling on this. But I'm still not entirely sold on the title coordinates... Should they really be added to every article - even very small ones where the inline coordinates are seen above-the-fold? (I think the answer is ''yes'' because external tools grep the coordinates from the title line, but I guess I'm just looking for some assurance) –]] 12:33, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
* '''Communication evaluation''': The Communications sub-committee of the MCDC together with the support staff conducted an evaluation of the communications. The Communications sub-committee appreciates the time and input of the community members who shared their opinions during the interviews. Several recommendations are going to be implemented in the upcoming period based on the valuable input.
::For the record, I did make ] this thread that only had one response (]). –]] 13:17, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
* ''']''': The MCDC continues to draft additional chapters: The Global Council, Hubs, Decision-making and Roles & Responsibilities. Alongside the drafting work, the MCDC is planning their in-person meeting scheduled for 2-4 June in Utrecht, Netherlands with the aim of advancing the charter's content.
:::Well, ''I'' (still) support the infobox coordinates appearing in the title. But if you're nervous about proceeding without a clearer consensus then maybe you should set the bot working on region codes only. --] (]) 19:51, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
::::I think maybe what I'll do is several hundred that add title coordinates a day (and unlimited number of just adding coord_region) and see if any complaints trickle in. I will commence this task <s>before the week is out</s> soon. –]] 19:57, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
:::::That sounds like a reasonable plan. --] (]) 20:49, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
:::::Note that there's a proposal afoot to rename {{tl|Infobox settlement}}. Is there any chance the rename (if it goes through) might confuse the bot? --] (]) 22:16, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
::::::Erm. No - but it would make sense to delay the bot until the template is renamed, so it can bypass the redirect on the way through... Since it's already going to be there, that is. –]] 03:42, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
:::::::(Dramatic sigh) Now I'll regret bringing that detail to your attention. Ah well, there's still ]. Cheers, --] (]) 04:53, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
::::::::Is the template ever used on unpopulated places? If so, wouldn't that make the name unsuitable? –]] 12:41, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
:::::::::It does get used on articles about ghost towns (such as ]) but as far as I know it's only used for places (and regions) that were inhabited by humans at some point. --] (]) 15:52, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
::::::::::Ok. I'll go ahead with commencing the task anyway and we'll see what happens. –]] 15:59, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Wack a rat. It seems that now we have placed warnings on templates about inappropriate usage such as {{tl|hidden archive top}} and {{tl|collapse top}} that some people have moved on to {{tl|divhide}} in a all to familiar way. It is not clear to me what extra functionality "divhide" has that "collpase top" or "{{{tl|collapse}}" has but as you are the main author of it, please consider whether it could be merged into one of the other templates and if not please add to it a similar explicit prohibition against inappropriate use on talk pages that has been added to the other templates. If it is not meant to be used on talk pages then we should add a line of code that makes it transparent on talk pages.-- ] (]) 03:58, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

== Your comments ==

Please read my post here . Your help and advice is falling on deaf ears. While I do not mean to stalk this user, this string of disruptive edits, personal attacks, and noticeboard discussions are hard to avoid. I hope something can be done about this. -] (]) 04:07, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
:It looks like other admins have commented on their talk page already; you might consider filing the RFC/U you are preparing - so Mk5384 can receive input from uninvolved community members. –]] 12:44, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
MKs response to this will totally dictate how I proceed. If the user appears to calm down (once again) and cooperate with others, there probably is no need for further action. Angry rants, however, and calls for punishments will surely lead to the RFC you mentioned. -] (]) 13:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
:Alright. By the way, I would be remiss if I didn't point out ]. –]] 19:02, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
I don't deny that thread at all. I would also be remiss if I did not point out that MKs handle was never once used in that thread . MK immediately assumed the comment was about him, and apparently had discovered it by monitoring talk pages and user contributions of those he had been in previous disputes with. That discussion never went anywhere but on a user page and I was simply stating something I was told by another individual off-Wiki. Probably wasn't the best thing to do, judgment wise, I admit that. -] (]) 19:35, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Was also wondering if you would be willing to certify the RFC/UC. Based on this most recent diff , which is clearly another veiled statement about my military service, I think an RFC might be a good idea at this point. -] (]) 01:32, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

:Yes, I will certify an RFCU (by the same token, if Mk5384 chose to open an RFC/U I would certify that as well). –]] 12:33, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
