will no longer use partial or temporary Office Action bans... until and unless community consensus that they are of value or Board directive.
More than ten years ago, you applied indefinite full-protection. However, for the last five years 123456 has been the most used password and has become a textbook example of a weak password. Therefore, I think the number is notable enough to warrant a disambiguation page. I submitted the page for creation at WP:AFC, but AngusWOOF rejected it. There has never been a deletion discussion concerning this page, but your decade-year-old comment that consensus this isn't a notable number
has stood in the way of its creation. Could you please re-review this matter and ping me a response? –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 20:19, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

the entire set of articles whose topic relates to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly interpretedrather than
reasonably construed.
Peter specifically (if it is indeed peter)) was trying to do up the article about himself, and then, due to the very thoughtful editors who love process - proceeded to identify coi and block, and now you have released him onto wikipedia. who is there to help or monitor his understanding of what wikipedia is WP:NOT ? I do not think from his first attempt he has any idea, I have tried to raise his response (nothing), and some people whom I thought were in contact with him, (no luck), and I really think there is something very lacking in the whole process... maybe wikipedia process, but with a potentially valuable contributor, all haste and little or no anything else... I do hope I am wrong. JarrahTree 00:09, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

wide-spread support for an alternative desysoping procedure based on community input. No proposed process received consensus.
that checkuser and oversight blocks must not be reversed or modified without prior consultation with the checkuser or oversighter who placed the block, the respective functionary team, or the Arbitration Committee.
Not to step on your toes, but I extended User_talk:50.102.207.35's block to 3 months given the block history. OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:05, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
You know, I am trying to help people learn and people like you are disrupting it, I have good faith in putting good and accurate information for everyone. I request that the page at least has a steady sign instead of decrease because Russia's population decline did halt. I'm so mad that nobody will even allow me to help, it's so disgraceful and intolerable that I can't even edit one thing without being threatened by another user. Please fix at least part of the page or else the warring may continue and if you block me, then people will never learn anything from bad sources. Either we settle this issue now or the warring proceeds, end of story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IntercontinentalEmpire (talk • contribs)

must notundo or alter CheckUser or Oversight blocks, rather than
should not.
Hi, the anonymous account that you blocked for 24 hours for vandalising the Anthony McGowan article is right back at it. It appears to be McGowan's niece, doing it for a prank (she includes things like "Veronica Hayes is the best niece ever"). Please ban them, if possible. Lilipo25 (talk) 22:46, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello. I have made complaints for several times at many instances of the Wikipedia, but until now didn't get any constructive answer. I seems that Wiki bureacrats are afraid of taking a decision against discrimination. Years ago I composed a text (Pedro Scuro) which - entirely out of the blue - was considered "promotional" by some reviewer, who did not care to explain his reasons. This was said to be a "gentle approach", followed by silence and by a discriminatory block against myself. Utterly disgusted with such a misogynist attitude I simply gave up contributing, until last week, when I edited a new article (Francesco Sidoti) which seems to blocked as well. I then decided to ask for Dispute Resolution but the matter seems so complicated that no answer was given. I believe that now I'm addressing an editor with a fresh approach. Hope i'm not wrong ... again. Awainting your kind reply. Down with discrimination! Yours Peiris Fox (talk) 15:07, 11 March 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for unblocking the students, but particularly for actually saying 'sorry' to them. That is rare enough the universe owes you a kitten. Here you go!

all discussions about pharmaceutical drug prices and pricing and for edits adding, changing, or removing pharmaceutical drug prices or pricing from articles.
Good day PhilKnight!
Dropped by your talkpage to personally thank you for blocking the disruptive editor Pamasawata0296. I also dropped by to ask if it is possible to tag an already blocked account for sockpuppetry.
Prior to his spree of disruptive edits, I had reported the user to NinjaRobotPirate as a possible sockpuppet of Albe23413. The said user has compiled a long list of sockpuppet accounts, which I've reported to various administrators such as Bbb23, El_C and NinjaRobotPirate. For my active pursuit of reporting him, I have become the subject of his harrassments, which includes being stalked to see if I've reported his new sockpuppet or outright harassing me on my talkpage. I was again a victim of his harassment as the unconstructive edits of his such as this consisted of him shouting in Filipino, which when translated reads: YOU SON OF A BITCH!!! GARDO VERSACE!!! YOU ARE A DUMB EDITOR ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH AND YOU ARE ALSO A BLOCKER YOU ANIMAL!!!! I HOPE YOU DIE OF COVID YOU HAVE NO MERCY AND YOU ARE HEARTLESS YOU FOOL!!! YOU SHOULD BE WITH SATAN IN HELL!!!! The shouting all but confirms his anger at being repeatedly reported by me, which can be read as an admission of his being a sockpuppet of Albe23413.
Other than the above, as I have mentioned, I had reported the user to NinjaRobotPirate before he was blocked for unconstructive editing. In the said report I attached the following diffs to bolster my claim that the said user is an Albe23413 sock:
Pamasawata0296 - Special:Diff/965268942 Cocisj455 - Special:Diff/964765048 Albe23413 - Special:Diff/936184741
If officially tagged, Pamasawata0296 would be Albe23413's 15th sock account since his first block for sockpuppetry in July 2019. If it is possible, I would also like to ask if the hate-filled shouting comments made by Pamasawata0296 can be redacted as well. Hoping for your consideration on these requests. Warmest regards.

Hey there! I know you're an administrator, so I don't want to try and be invasive here, but I noticed your edit to Black Lives Matter (disambiguation). Was this just an edit conflict gone poorly, or did you purposefully edit the dab page with those additions/allegations? ItsPugle (talk) 10:02, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
Could you please block user:2600:1000:b10e:c51e:0:9:e434:2c01 asap. She will likely not stop vandalizing until then. CLCStudent (talk) 13:56, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
