This is a copy of my reply at my talk.

You have been here long enough to know that there are plenty of editors with strong opinions and there is plenty of disruption. Battles over matters of substance can proceed for a long period however battling over minor stuff is not tolerated. Perhaps you are right and everyone else is wrong, but you will have to accept that your proposal about Windows 10 version history does not have consensus. You have worked out how to shift IPs but you have not worked out that blocking IPs is easy. I don't mind spending half an hour blocking a hundred IPs, or IP ranges, for six months or longer if necessary. Any further blather about spaces or punctuation or whatever will show that you are not a suitable contributor with consequent revert-block-ignore. For your information, several extremely valuable editors (much more valuable than you or I) have got themselves indefinitely blocked after repeatedly changing the style of how wikitext is written. It only involves spaces/punctuation but it is incredibly irritating for other editors to see someone lighting up watchlists while fiddling to promote their personal preferences. It is always stopped and you will not be an exception. Johnuniq (talk) 23:52, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
