No, there isn’t any point, as the nasty behaviour this editor continues to exhibit goes ignored. I think that “you did bad first” is a very poor excuse for disregarding subsequent policy violations by another editor. I don’t think having a “clean sheet” should be a requirement for complaints to be taken seriously. I also don’t think your tone is very helpful. I haven’t been impressed by any of the admins dealing with this issue. Of course, the argument is “but you’re in the wrong and should move on, just drop it”, but I’m entitled to think I haven’t been treated fairly - that isn’t unjustified simply because three admins have taken a similar approach to the problem.

FAM request

Hi! I hope you're well.

Would you consider taking up the role of the WP:FAM mentor to me? As you have likely noticed, I'm interested in editing articles on Yugoslav history and I thought I might tackle the Croatian Spring article to improve it sufficiently for a FAC nomination — hopefully in time for the 50th anniversary of the Karađorđevo meeting on 1 December. The article is currently awaiting a GOCE copyedit and I plan to submit it to GAN as a way to prepare better for FAC. As regards the FAM, I thought of asking you since I believe you are well aware of relevant article context and quite possibly familiar with most sources used – even if the article falls outside WW2 or even MILHIST scope. I hope to learn sufficiently in the process to be able to move articles through MILHIST ACR and FAC processes independently.--Tomobe03 (talk) 09:40, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

G'day Tomobe03, I'd be happy to. Perhaps I could have a look immediately after the GOCE c/e, and before GAN in the first instance? Let me know if that works for you? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:24, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
That would be just fine. I could ping you once the GOCE copyedit is done.--Tomobe03 (talk) 07:12, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

User:FDW777

Hi, as you are called "Peacemaker", and are an administrator, I would therefore appreciate some constructive input on my complaints about this editor: https://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:ToBeFree#User:FDW777

Yes, I have been sanctioned for not following BLP policy, following FDW777 reporting me, but I've tried to remain civil, and acted in good faith; they haven't, and their misdemeanours are being wilfully ignored by User:ToBeFree.—TrottieTrue (talk) 12:55, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

I agree with TBF and their approach to this. BLP policy violations are very serious. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:20, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

But does that really discount the policy violations that FDW777 is committing? It’s amazing how admin are willing to turn a blind eye to this editor’s behaviour, because BLP violations apparently trump personal attacks and incivility. Not a very helpful response. TrottieTrue (talk) 02:55, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

There is no point in trying to canvas other admins. Your problem is you don't come into this with clean hands. FDW777 was responding to your BLP violations, and while their responses weren't all great, they were essentially right about your BLP violations. All editors get frustrated when other editors are not following policy or POV pushing. I suggest you drop it and avoid trying to boomerang back onto editors who call out your policy violations. When you have a clean sheet, admins are more likely to take your reports more seriously. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 03:03, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

No, there isn’t any point, as the nasty behaviour this editor continues to exhibit goes ignored. I think that “you did bad first” is a very poor excuse for disregarding subsequent policy violations by another editor. I don’t think having a “clean sheet” should be a requirement for complaints to be taken seriously. I also don’t think your tone is very helpful. I haven’t been impressed by any of the admins dealing with this issue. Of course, the argument is “but you’re in the wrong and should move on, just drop it”, but I’m entitled to think I haven’t been treated fairly - that isn’t unjustified simply because three admins have taken a similar approach to the problem.

Special projects

Hey, I was just wondering, how could I add special projects to a wikiproject template in order to have the quality assessment done on them? Noah 01:56, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I'm not sure what you mean. Could you link to the special projects so I can have a look? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:25, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
