Hi Paul

Hope you're ok mate, cheers and Godspeed, Eli Bigeez (talk) 17:59, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Paul, thx, you really gave me (& everyone else) a moral boost. Prayed for your health and return. All else is vanity (Ecc. 1:2-3). Take the time you need, don't work too hard, mate, look out for your 6. Glad you're back. Cheers, Eli Bigeez (talk) 01:50, 2 October 2020 (UTC)

Eli, you misunderstood me: I am totally fine, I am not sick, and never been sick. I have to work hard due to COVID, so my involvement in Misplaced Pages will be minimal during next several months.

Thank you, and all the best

Cheers, --Paul Siebert (talk) 21:34, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

In spite of the misunderstanding, Paul, I'm glad your ok! Cheers! Eli Bigeez (talk) 22:48, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello @Paul Siebert: Paul, I realise it's been a while, but not sure how to finalise R/C subheading in Talk:World War II? I thought I smashed it, but if you see thread, no one seems to care; rather, they seem transfixed on nonsensical minutia (see User:Bigeez/sandbox). Am I doing something wrong? Cheers, Eli Bigeez (talk) 19:45, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Actually, I am not sure why you decided you need to get an explicit permission from other users to introduce the R&C section into the article. That is not how Misplaced Pages works. You have done an huge work, you created a piece of a well sourced text, you made good faith efforts to discuss it with other users and did your best to address their comments and criticism. Nothing in our policy and guidelines prevents you from adding this text to the article. I myself can do that for you in a close future, but you can do it by yourself too. There is a non-zero probability that that your edit will be reverted, but that is ok, that is how Misplaced Pages works. This revert would not mean a veto, that would be just the second part of the BRD cycle, and if your addition will be reverted, that may give a start to the next round of discussion at the talk page. Sooner or later, your changes, mutatis mutandis, will be added.

Frankly, I myself see some problems with your text, but that does not mean anything. If you want, I can explain what, in my opinion, should be changed before adding it to the article. However, I would prefer to do that a little bit later.--Paul Siebert (talk) 20:37, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in Eastern Europe or the Balkans. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
