A couple of years back, you deleted a page for a show called Howdi Gaudi. Do you remember anything that was said?2600:6C5A:417F:794E:82B:319A:7DB1:3DCB (talk) 03:10, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
Do you think we can lose the full protection now that an RfC has been started for the issue that caused the edit warring? The situation might now be better addressed with an arbitration remedy such as consensus required or BRD required. ––FormalDude (talk) 01:54, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
Done, with only mild trepidation. Let's see how it goes. -- Euryalus (talk) 08:40, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Given your attention to some of the user's past edits. [3]. Thanks, 76.119.253.82 (talk) 18:33, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
Sorry, I was about to fix that, but you blocked already. I looks like all the vandalism is actually coming from 112.207.192.0/19. The other parts of the 17, 112.207.128.0/18, and 112.207.224.0/19, seem unrelated. They haven't been used much since November; that's what fooled me. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 01:54, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for blocking this range. 172.56.217.134 (talk) 02:14, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
Another admin blocked the user already. These spambots have persisted for years. See User:Mathonius/Reports/Nothing to say about me really - Meta (wikimedia.org) Cahk (talk) 09:42, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
Hi Maliner here. Thanks for the recent block of Eternaldeathwish. I am a recent changes patroller and mostly revert vandalism. I want to use huggle for my anti-vandalism work so requesting rollback. Your help in this regard will be appreciated. Many thanks. Maliner (talk) 10:25, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
Hello. I am very sorry for prolonging this ordeal further, but can you please explain how it is that deleting the article whose AfD you just prematurely closed was necessary in terms of wp:child protect. This policy is mostly about inappropriate adult-child relationships being fostered onwiki, but the section that gets closest to being applicable is this:
Editors seemingly pushing agendas can be referred to any administrator in exactly the same way as any other POV-pushing allegation. Comments posted on Wikipedia suggesting that an editor may be a pedophile will be suppressed promptly, to avoid issues of privacy and possible libel. You should raise your concerns only by email; questions or accusations directed against a particular editor in project space may result in a block for the editor who posted them.
The necessary steps here have already been done in several blocks. This policy page does not imply that deleting an article written by a POV pusher is needed as part of child protection, especially if the article can be improved to remove the distortions of the topic by the POV pusher through normal editing (as myself and Alalch E. had been attempting, though I think we could have used a lot of help. Our efforts can still be seen on archive.today). I strongly fear this deletion and salting will indirectly have the reverse of the intended effect of wp:child protect in the long term.
Secondly, consensus is not a vote, which is especially relevant when about 80% of !votes say almost the same thing, and there may have developed a fear about not !voting delete as the majority of people who !voted keep early on were bad faith editors, or possibly socks of one person, and were banned. For this reason I would like your assurance that you have carefully read the history page and the article in its most recent state, which differs in significant ways from the version that existed for the majority of the AfD's duration, and checked at least the rough applicability of each of these heavily repeated assertions to it. Thank you. small jars tc

expressing the view that inappropriate relationships are not harmful to children. However WP:CFORK, WP:UNDUE and WP:FRINGE were also relevant to this AfD.
I strongly fear this deletion and salting will indirectly have the reverse of the intended effect of wp:child protect in the long term.How does reduced encyclopedia coverage of this fringe descriptive term make it harder to protect children? Feel free to explain further if you wish to pursue this point.
If there's ever a legitimate reason to recreate, this should be via discussion on an established article talk page, at which time if consensus is established the salting can be removed.Would it be worthwhile for me to attempt to write a draft on the topic that attempts to address the concerns raised in the AfD, and if so what article talk page would be the best place to request it be moved into the main space? I feel like this is important but I don’t want to produce any more strife if it is unlikely to lead to any productive outcome.

express the view that inappropriate relationships are not harmful to children,and describes those who advocate for that view in the proper light instead? Is it the title itself that treads onto dangerous ground with this policy? small jars

I suggest salting the non-hyphenated title too, since it's otherwise a loophole in the salting of the hyphenated article. Best, DFlhb (talk) 09:14, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
I don't like to communicate via email unless it's absolutely necessary (privacy issues, etc). I'm not bothered if someone protects an article that I've declined protection from; it's difficult to be entirely objective as to whether a situation merits protection. I did implement an edit filter that should put an end to future socking attempts on that article, though. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:50, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I've never filed an SPI and so I realized after the fact maybe I should (not sure where), but based on your last two blocks I just noticed User:Dzx8x is still unblocked and likely the same. Let me know if I should proceed differently. Thanks. Skynxnex (talk) 01:36, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi Euryalus I saw you blocked the ip address 174.215.220.177 and I would like to say thank you because not only were they putting unsoured content they were unnecessarily blanking sections, unnecessarily removing content and adding false information to articles, so again thank you. Jack345110 (talk) 18:09, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
thanks for putting a semi-lock on Hamish Harding's article. I had recently listed it up on the page protection request due to the ridiculous amount of vandalism happening over there, and you did it right after my request! ♡Draco Centauros♡ (talk) 04:21, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
Why do you allow foreignors and those not from the religion, country, or culture to edit our cultures narratives with wrong information. This is outright racist HounganC (talk) 05:54, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I've noticed that you've deleted a draft page of mine and it wasn't even up for reviews yet. May I please know why you have deleted it? Which line seems to be promotional in the article so that I can remove/fix it accordingly. You've protected the creation of this article as it was rejected before too, but this time it wasn't even ready yet to be reviewed. So, I think I do deserve a chance to create it completely before a decision is taken about this page. Rohan208 (talk) 16:10, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
The choice to remove the page on "minor-attracted person" has shown Wikipedia is not neutral as it claims and listens to baseless hysterics over peer-reviewed sources and professional input. It shows Wikipedia has a bias and only accepts things that they agree with and will purge anything that goes against their beliefs. Wikipedia has lost all integrity as an encyclopedia and should not be used if someone is seeking factual information. Shugunou (talk) 22:27, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
There was community consensus that this is a relatively fringe term which might justify a mention in related articles but does not justify a separate article separate from other terms and encyclopedic content related to the same concept. The AfD and related discussions (including the recent ANI thread) indicate some relevance to this sentence from WP:CHILDPRO: expressing the view that inappropriate relationships are not harmful to children. However WP:CFORK, WP:UNDUE and WP:FRINGE were also relevant to this AfD.
Hi, I've started a thread at ANI regarding a WP:LTA that you've previously blocked.

Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election have opened. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next coordination year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting will commence on 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the current coord team. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:05, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
Hi, Euryalus. Re your blocking of Chandalab, was I right to have left them a templated message on their talk page about their username or should I have reported it at UAA? Given that the information at the top of the UAA page says it is for 'blatant' and 'serious' violations, I didn't feel it appropriate in this instance - the username wasn't promoting an organisation - as it was a biography I'd tagged it as COI. Some guidance would be appreciated. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 14:46, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
I see the user Shugunou posted a comment here attacking you because wiki removed the "MAPs" article. You felt they were a sock. They left another comment on this talk page which makes me think so too. Unusual comment ("mobile network" etc) for a first time editor, no? Zenomonoz (talk) 10:41, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

So, Euryalus, you think it'll be OK as long as BallSniffer edits constructively? I disagree. In deference to your opinion, however, I've merely softblocked, against my own conviction that the user will not become a useful contributor. (Aren't you glad I didn't use the account name to adorn your ToC, and for the edit summary?) Bishonen | tålk 10:02, 29 November 2023 (UTC).
waste time dealing with accounts that may never be used. Still, I have no expectation they'll be a useful contributor so my absence of a block is a "meh" rather than sunny optimism. And yes, thank you for maintaining the sanctity of the TOC. I only archive this page once a year, so "ballsniffer" would be staring me in the face for weeks. :) -- Euryalus (talk) 11:17, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
