:The idea has its drawbacks. Take a hypothetical individual that would not have, without this coaxing, entered an edit summary. He'll do one of several things:
: 1. Prodded by the message, he will enter a good edit summary
: 2. He will enter "skjfsda" or the equivalent, and be annoyed.
: 3. He will be so annoyed that he will enter "I hate edit summaries".
: 4.He will be so incredibly annoyed that he won't contribute at all.
:I won't venture to be able to accurately assign probabilities to these outcomes, though I would predict that #1 wouldn't outnumber 2, 3, and 4 combined. 2, 3, and 4 are all bad outcomes, I think.

Having thought about this some, I suppose you are right that my suggestion is not an ''unambiguously'' good idea. Still, I think it could be done in a way that would eliminate 95% of the bad outcomes above. I would set up the "no edit summary warning to read something like this"

:: '''Yes''' Enter edit summary here:_________________

== Global account ==
Given these choices, I think the bad outcomes are all unlikely. It will be a lot easier for an "annoyed" user to click "No" than to type in "I hate edit summaries" so option 3 will be unlikely. I also find it unlikely that a serious contributor would forget the contribution rather than have the trouble of merely clicking "No" so option 4 would be unlikely. And vandals would have already had the opportunity to input a garbage edit summary before even hitting this page, so option 2 should also be unlikely (and an edit summary of "xzskdfkjafe" probably presages a contribution of equal value so seeing it might actually be helpful to RC patrollers).

And we would then know that a decision not to leave an edit summary was intentional, thereby avoiding RfA opposed based on "only 80% edit summary usage" for long-term contributors who are just a little over-eager to hit "Save Page."

You uploaded or restored , ], but for various reasons did not add an {{tl|information}} block, or indicate your (user) name on the file description page.

If it's entirely your own work, '''please include {{tl|own}} in the relevant source field''', amend the {{tl|information}} added by a third party, '''ensuring that your user name (or name you want used for attribution) is clear in the author field''', and change the license to an appropriate "self" variant (if such a license is not already used). You should also add an <nowiki>|author=</nowiki> parameter to the license tag, to assist reviews and image patrollers. You can also add <code><nowiki>|claimed=yes</nowiki></code> and an <code><nowiki>|author=</nowiki></code>to the {{tl|media by uploader}} or {{tl|presumed_self}} tag if it is present to indicate that you've acknowledged the image, and license shown (and updated the {{tl|information}} where appropriate).

==I'd like your advice==

You've stepped into the quagmire of the ] articles before: perhaps you've seen my reporting ] on WP:AN3 ] and WP:AN/I ], both cases so subtle that no admin has wet their toes in them. That's the problem. DTC is, in my estimation, the most dangerous type of disruption we can have on Wiki: a dedicated, single-minded user with a lot of free time and a volumnious library of printed sources all in service of a partisan POV. He's too smart to do something obviously vandalistic (even his 3RR violation wasn't obvious, but is clear upon reflection if one compares the first and last versions he reverts to) and can play at all the weaknesses of something like Misplaced Pages, especially the difficulty of recognising non-obvious vandalism. His edit-warring, excarbated by the well-intended efforts of an uninterested administration (another Wiki weakness) has driven off ]. He's almost certainly a RJII sockpuppet - I suspect ] is the same guy as well. I want him to stop aggressively misrepresenting sources, loading the article with ones amiable to his view and dismissing or stripping those not. I've tried to play nice, but he brushes it off - I've tried to bring this through the proper channels, but nobody wants to give the case the attention it deserves: what am I supposed to do? --]<sup>]</sup> 05:52, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
:First, let me again emphasisize, as I did with TheUngovernableForce, that I have no idea at all about the content question here and for all I know the pro-anarcho-capitalist sides are right and the topic *is* under-represented or belittled. Or not. How would I know? Other than the obvious approaches like suggesting a CheckUser or compiling enough evidence to go to ArbCom, the only thing I can really suggest is that you make sure everything your side asserts is backed by scholarly sources too. If one side is arguing backed by a voluminous library, and the other is backed by -- for example -- talking about what the Expedia article on Anarchism says, the guy with the library probably ''should'' win. Of course, ideally, you wouldn't have sides, you'd all be doing your best to fairly cover all aspects of the topic as best you could... but it's a politics article, and I suppose people interested in politics articles are inherently political, aren't they? Ugh. &mdash;] (]) 15:18, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
::This isn't about the content dispute, though you can imagine the trouble I have convincing people of that. My problem is that he strips the article of scholarly sources of the opposing view as much as he can. He unilaterally acts in a way misrepresenting these sources. Then he claims his view is the scholarly consensus, when it is not - it is a highly disputed view, and if there is a meaningful consensus any way it is opposite to his view. I don't now have the access to the type of specialised library he does, nor do I have the time to devote to cheerleading my favourite ideology: look at ] - it's ''all that he has done''. I find it ''very'' worrying that the only way to stop people like this is if they do something stupid - if That'sHot is his sockpuppet.

*I don't know if I actually said it, or thought I said it, but I agreed with your unblocking ''for the reasons stated.''

I haven't the vaguest idea whether Kylu had bad intent or not, and I don't think you said, either, but you were right that the timing was suspicious and poor enough that the block itself was a clear lift. I was on my "let's not say anything" approach, though, hoping that silence would be an example for the world. It wasn't.

Notice of change

Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the bureaucrats' noticeboard. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through WP:RFA. Thank you. MBisanz 00:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Eddie again

Bunchie, there's a new ban appeal by Eddie Segoura here on AN which looks to be going well. I'll wait for your opinion, if you have one, before I jump one way or the other. I was quite impressed by the stubborn disruptiveness of Eddie in the distant past, but they say people can change. Anyway, nobody knows more about it than you.

I guess my comments from the 2009 appeal (which I did not actually oppose) still stand. I'm willing to believe there's a decent chance he won't be malicious, and if the community wants to put up with what a pain-in-the-ass he can be is even when he's being good, there's little reason not to give him another shot.

Please attribute or claim media you uploaded or restored: File:Tulipface spin.gif

You uploaded or restored , File:Tulipface spin.gif, but for various reasons did not add an {{information}} block, or indicate your (user) name on the file description page. Media uploaded to Misplaced Pages needs information on the SPECIFIC authorship and source of files, to ensure that it complies with copyright laws in various jurisdictions.

If it's entirely your own work, please include {{own}} in the relevant source field, amend the {{information}} added by a third party, ensuring that your user name (or name you want used for attribution) is clear in the author field, and change the license to an appropriate "self" variant (if such a license is not already used). You should also add an |author= parameter to the license tag, to assist reviews and image patrollers. You can also add |claimed=yes and an |author=to the {{media by uploader}} or {{presumed_self}} tag if it is present to indicate that you've acknowledged the image, and license shown (and updated the {{information}} where appropriate).

If it's not entirely your own work, then please update the source and authorship fields, so that they accurately reflect the source and authors of the original work(s), as well as the derivative you created. You should also not use a "self" license unless the work is entirely you own. Media that is incorrectly claimed as self or {{own}}, will eventually be listed at Files for Discussion or deleted, unless it's full status is entirely clear to other contributors, reviewers and image patrollers.

Whilst this notification, relates to a single media upload, it would also be appreciated if you could ensure that appropriate attribution exists for other media you uploaded, You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

It's okay to remove or strike this message once the issue has been resolved :).

Happy New Year

Hi BOG, I just thought I’d drop by to wish you a prosperous New Year and say it would be nice to see a little more of you around the place. Giano (talk) 21:36, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi and thanks, Giano. Is everything all fixed around here, then, or are you all still slaving away for the glory of our "betters"? —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 03:54, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
Yep, everything’s fixed. The place is a positive Utopia, never been better - Jimbo asks me in for a weekly beer to sound out my views for advice. Glad to see you are still looking in. Have a great 2020. Giano (talk) 00:24, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
