== Gamergate general sanctions ==

Our content dispute at the ] pages is now a moot issue, but an important (to me) question remains: Why did you accuse me of trolling and disruption, and threaten to block me?

You're an administrator, expected to lead by example, so I think it's fair to ask this question.

Here is what you wrote, directed to me:
:{{tq|"Your actions here are nothing but senseless, useless trolling, creating disruption for disruption's sake, and I will block you if you continue. Unless, that is, if you could make a sensible argument that the two wordings are actually substantially different in meaning, which, obviously, they are not."}}
Regarding your first sentence:

* My actions were:
:*I Made a small edit to the article, replacing a short passage of text with the verifiable ''precise citation'' from the relevant community discussion at the administrators' noticeboard. (My edit summary was: "Correct to reflect actual language of measure adopted at Administrator's Noticeboard"),
:* I started a discussion on the talk page (after you had reverted my edit with the summary: "rv, language was perfectly clear and appropriate, no need to replace it with officious-sounding garbage like this.")
:* I provided a detailed rationale for the edit , and,
:* I undid your reversion. (Which you reverted again, with the edit summary "back off or you will be blocked.")
* My actions were, to the best of my knowledge, in accord with WP policy and guidelines: no edit warring, no incivility, no personal attacks, no battlefield conduct, no trolling, and no disruptive editing.
* Your statement that my actions were "nothing but senseless, useless trolling, creating disruption for disruption's sake" appears not only to be unfounded, it is insulting and disparaging. "Insulting or disparaging an editor is a personal attack ''regardless of the manner in which it is done.''"
* Irrespective of your claim that you're not ] in the GamerGate controversy, you were certainly involved in a content dispute with me. So, your threats to block me seemed to suggest a misuse of your administrative tools (At the time, I perceived your comments as an attempt to intimidate and drive me away, with the implicit threat that you'd use the Gamergate general sanctions to block me.)

Regarding your second sentence:
* The ] of the two wordings is a matter of interpretation. Given that I think the wordings are different in meaning, and you don't, the inescapable conclusion is that there are multiple possible interpretations.
* The principles of no original research and verifiability seem applicable in this case: "Information in an article must be verifiable in the references cited... Passages open to multiple interpretations should be ''precisely cited'' or avoided." .
* My edits merely replaced a passage that was open to multiple interpretations with one that was verifiable, and precisely cited to the referenced community discussion.
* Yet, ignoring all the above, if you believed the two wordings were not substantially different in meaning, why did you start the content dispute in the first place?

Ultimately, I come back to my core question: why did you accuse me of trolling and disruption, and threaten to block me? If I'm missing something, I want to know what it is. ] (]) 10:48, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Per this 100% accurate comment. I could not agree with you more, and I'm glad someone finally said it. Kurtis 23:33, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

Kunal gurjar

Hi, I realise that it is a while since but Kunal gurjar (talk · contribs) has returned to make dodgy edits relating to the Gurjar community. They've been topic banned before and you were the last person to do so. Since the other implementer (Spiffy) is inactive, I wonder whether you might review this nonsense. It isn't worth re-banning them for it but perhaps a shot across the bows? - Sitush (talk) 14:18, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Ah, I see you went for the nuclear option. That's fair enough: they've done nothing useful thus far. Thanks for your help. - Sitush (talk) 17:16, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

rangeblock of 83.10.170.147

Im just letting you know that I posted here about the rangeblock on 83.10.170.147 . I can look up more info when I get home. And I meant to post on your talkpage to let you know what I did that day anyway, but I forgot, so I apologize for that. Let me know if you have any questions. Soap 17:11, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
