| Hi, I want to apologize if I've caused any offense or difficulty for you, and you've identified that you are neuroatypical and therefore I know maybe we might have some difficulty communicating. I respect that. But I do want to point out that when you go to a a talk page of a major policy or noticeboard and start talking policy and possible changes to policy, that would have significant cascading effects on the landscape of coverage on Misplaced Pages, that is going to encounter some opposition. And furthermore it's not a shield or some form of protection that you have been identified with a diagnosis - I respect that this may make things difficult, so I advise you to cease attempting to change or influence Misplaced Pages policy according to these political lines. Because you will encounter opposition. You were also previously topic banned for 6 months. I understand this may have recently expired. If you are going to go on a ] crusade to change contentious label policy or NPOV fact/opinion policy along right-wing political lines, we'll have no choice but to seek another topic ban to deal with that disruption. I am just a Misplaced Pages volunteer editor, not an admin and with no special powers. But I will do what I can to oppose your crusade so I advise you abandon it.

| :As you've identified - you're just a volunteer editor, not an admin with special powers. Please do not try to unilaterally shut down discussion and threaten to try to get me banned, simply because you disagree with me. As you can see, several editors, including David Epstein, Masem, WhatamIdoing, and North8000 have found my thread worthy of serious engagement. You don't just get to decide that, since ''you'' don't find the conversation worth your time, the conversation doesn't get to take place. Your conduct towards me, dating back months and months, has been uniformly snarky, rude, and lacking in nuance and substance. While I appreciate you acknowledging that your behavior could easily be construed as offensive, I'm going to respectfully ask that we not have contact. ] (]) 22:21, 13 August 2023 (UTC) | |||

Just checking to make sure you understand what a topic ban means
It's basically simple. You obviously can't edit related articles (broadly construed) and you cannot discuss them anywhere. If you aren't sure if an article is related, just avoid it. Doug Weller talk 11:46, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
- I think Bishonen laid things out very clearly, and if I have any hesitations or doubts, I'll go to them. Philomathes2357 (talk) 16:05, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
RE: Duke
I wanted to thank you for bringing that BLP topic to editors attention via RfC. It has been resolved in small part thanks to your work. Obviously I see you have been topic banned so you are unable to comment further. This is for the best. I hope you learn a valuable lesson. Misplaced Pages moves slowly and sometimes that can be frustrating. Sometimes you may disagree with the consensus or the consensus might be wrong, but you must respect it. Happy editing. Nemov (talk) 19:57, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Nemov for your nice message. Yes, I've been topic-banned, but I'm confident that once it's expired I'll be able to contribute in a much more effective and collaborative manner. Glad the RFC got resolved. Hope to interact with you more in the future, you're a nice person. Take care. Philomathes2357 (talk) 23:41, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
