Dear ToBeFree, |
|||
I am writing to request an increase in page protection for the article on [[Offensive Guard]]. It is a project of the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs with the aim to form new assault brigades in the structure of National Guard, National Police and Border Guards.I have attempted to let increase the page protection level in accordance with the guidelines set forth in [[WP:GS/RUSUKR]]. Despite my efforts, however, my request has been denied. |
|||
I believe that the Offensive Guard page meets the criteria for increased protection outlined in [[WP:GS/RUSUKR]]. Given the potential for vandalism and misinformation, I strongly urge you to reconsider my request and increase the page protection level. |
|||
Thank you for your time and consideration. |

Good idea on bowing out of the AN conversation
Just wanted to tell you that was a good suggestion, and I'm taking it. Thank you. (Sorry if this is the wrong place to send a message like this, I'm not up to date on all the wikipedia etiquette) ClearConcise (talk) 21:28, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hi ClearConcise, I'm sorry to see that it had to end with such advice, but I'm very thankful for your message and your agreement. The page is correct, no worries.
- Regarding the talk page discussion, you may benefit from knowing about WP:BLUDGEON, which is just an essay but describes a general community unhappiness about people replying to every comment in a discussion. I arguably made the same mistake when discussing the definition of vandalism at AN; it's a very easily happening mistake. As soon as you have presented your arguments, there is no real reason to write a new message for the sole purpose of repeating them. Those who have read your message(s) do know your position, and they're highly unlikely to change theirs just by reading the same arguments again. The best way to find a consensus in such situations is to wait for the opinions of others who have not yet joined the discussion. You shouldn't invite them manually, though, as that would be canvassing. When a discussion is linked from a highly visible noticeboard such as WP:AN, there's practically nothing productive you can do other than waiting.
- Please let me know if any questions, especially about policies or guidelines, arise.
- All the best,
~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:37, 22 March 2023 (UTC)- Clarification after re-reading my message: I'm not saying you're "bludgeoning" the discussion at the moment; I have written this in advance to make sure that doesn't happen. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:38, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
- Nah, I'm not replying in there at all, I'm done with that discussion. As I said, I'm taking your advice to bow out. It is hard when users get so accusatory and hostile and bludgeon the conversation as you put it, (never heard that one before), but sometimes you just gotta walk away :) Peace.

How to Establish MilitaryLand.net as a Trusted Source of Information?
Dear ToBeFree,
I hope this message finds you in good health. I am reaching out to inquire about the process of designating MilitaryLand.net as a reliable and trustworthy source of information. As I frequently refer to the content published on this website, I would greatly appreciate any guidance you can provide on how to establish its credibility.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my request. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
