User:Monbot

[edit]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but someone needs to note in the section User:Monbot that the user’s username is inappropriate for use on Wikipedia because it is misleading (wikipedia:MISLEADNAME). This is not a bot account, it’s a person, and the name needs to reflect that. (Apologies for posting this here, I’m locked out of the primary page for reasons I can not discern but assume to be due to either trolling or lta related vandalism control.) 2600:1011:B324:1E02:B940:65B6:E5B4:9665 (talk) 08:20, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The account in question was soft blocked back in March 2021 for username violation, I don't think there is much to do here. Ratnahastin (talk) 08:25, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is also the wrong board, but... shrugs. Agree with the above, they're already blocked so there's not much for us to do. Primefac (talk) 15:57, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: I believe the IP is referring to this thread , where Monbot67's actions are being discussed.-- Ponyobons mots 16:51, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk formatting request

[edit]

In just under 24 hours, this discussion on ABRPIA collected 50 comments and counting. Some of the replies are indented on the same level and difficult to read. It is mostly a linear discussion. Can someone uninvolved indent the replies when two people are indented on the same level? It would make it easier for everyone to read. ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him • talk) 20:14, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've been following the discussion and I haven't noticed any obvious threading problems or easy fixes. One trick that I like is to add a subheading every once in awhile to keep any one section from getting too big, and to help label the topic of that area of conversation. –Novem Linguae (talk) 00:58, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In eight cases indenting and replies to those linked Diffs would help for clarity. The fixes are a matter of adding colons correctly to the comments (including whether it's a new paragraph or sub-indented reply). But I will live either way. The length of it, might make it worthwhile to ease reading for future closer

What happened to "Editor calling other editors who reject a source as racists and claiming religious discrimination"?

[edit]

The "Editor calling other editors who reject a source as racists and claiming religious discrimination" thread (for example here) appears to have vanished. At the time I saw it last, there was evident consensus that a long-time problem editor should receive a TBAN. I received no notice about it closing. What happened here? :bloodofox: (talk) 20:34, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's archived here: Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1166. -- asilvering (talk) 22:54, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So, it was automatically archived without action? :bloodofox: (talk) 00:17, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, looks like. Unless I'm missing someone, the only administrator who responded was Liz, and she explained why it was difficult for the topic to be actioned. -- asilvering (talk) 00:22, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
