The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Please stop the user from vandalizing the World Athletics Cross Country Championships page.

This user, Special:Contributions/2603:6010:F000:EA57:4DA2:DFC2:8A6D:B9A, is vandalizing the World Athletics Cross Country Championships page. Could you please stop him from vandalizing it even further? And if he does it again, could you please block him? AdamDeanHall (talk) 22:40, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

I'm not an admin. I don't have that kind of power. I dropped a warning on their page for the article in question after I looked at their edits. If they persist, and after they've been warned enough times, reporting them to WP:AIV will be the way to go. I'll keep an eye out the next couple of days and see if I can help.

Re: edits on Mary Sue article

Was wondering if you had a list of criteria handy for this kind of thing. (I figured this wouldn't require a citation in the same way synonyms/spellings at the start of articles don't seem to require one - but I trust you as the most experienced editor, of course, just felt like I should be familiar with the exact rules.) 216.164.249.213 (talk) 05:30, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

It basically boils down to verifying the claim, meaning that we can't state it's the most common—even if it seems like that probably the case—unless a reliable source makes the statement. We'd probably want at least a few stating "Gary Stu" as the most common. And even if we found that, odds are we'd want to phrase it to point out that this is only what those sources claim based on their particular methodology of determining it. Otherwise we'd run the risk of bumping into original research. Millahnna (talk) 07:34, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

"Relevant background"

What is this "relevant background" that you have been made aware of, which has apparently persuaded you that it was a good thing for people to add copyrighted text to an article and block me for removing it? 86.28.234.94 (talk) 15:18, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

I don't even remember anymore because I have a life and this interaction was not that important to me. I chatted with the admin at the time, read what they had to say, and thought to myself "yeah that's a big mess and I see why admins did what they did". Millahnna (talk) 17:29, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
You've forgotten the "relevant background" that you mentioned in an edit summary just three hours ago, regarding a situation that you cared about enough to dredge up again two months after it happened? Sounds unlikely. Your contributions show no evidence of chatting to any admin either. What are you getting out of attacking me for having removed a copyright violation, exactly? 86.28.234.94 (talk) 17:50, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
Literally the only reason I remembered this situation happened at all is because Drmies tagged me in a comment on your page. I read over my comment there and went "oh yeah I kinda remember this". I didn't dredge up shit. Millahnna (talk) 19:09, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Millahnna, with the above comment, and this one, you can do whatever you like, including removal. There is some background at Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Best known for IP, though that's only part of it, and it's a complicated story; I myself don't really know what to do with it. Their edits are great, the rest is not, and some of it was well beyond the pale. I don't roll back those edits, typically, because they are good edits, and if I block them, and I've probably blocked a whole bunch of accounts and IP addresses/ranges, it's not really for edit warring or whatever but for personal attacks and things like that. Drmies (talk) 16:56, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

You are now accusing me of long term abuse? Smearing me with something that bears no relation whatsoever to the edits I made? And you've decided to start harassing me two months after the block I got for removing copyright-violating text? What exactly is your motivation here? 86.28.234.94 (talk) 17:08, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

AIV

Please be cautious when reporting users to WP:AIV. HJ Mitchell (talk · contribs) did block 78.99.32.240 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) but your report said the IP had edited after a final warnings despite the fact that the IP editor's last edit was at 15:33 and the final warning you issued was at 15:48. EvergreenFir (talk) 15:55, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry about that, EvergreenFir. I saw that the last edit pre-dated the final warning but I looked at the IP's history and decided there were grounds for a block anyway. I'm guessing you declined the report while I was still making my mind up. Millahnna, I do second EF's comments; if you're going to give a final warning, don't report to AIV, or report to AIV without a final warning if the vandalism is persistent enough. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:59, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
@HJ Mitchell - "I'm guessing you declined the report while I was still making my mind up". Yep! And no worries. I've made that same decision myself (or blocking after only a level-3 warning). I have no problem with the block itself. :) EvergreenFir (talk) 16:55, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
Apologies and noted. Thank you both for the heads up. I should probably finish my first cup of coffee before I jump in for the day in the future. I'm always a little uncertain how to deal when the timeline lays out like this; where the problem editor has kept going against their warnings but no one caught it while I was elsewhere. There's a fair chance that this IP is the same one anon we've had similar problems with before; next time I'll wait them out (and finish my coffee so I can read the timestamp fonts); they definitely would have continued and that would have made things more clear cut.

Hi can you check t@he plot again? NeoBatfreak (talk) 22:09, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Sure thing. I have to run out for some errands but I'll proofread in a few hours. Millahnna (talk) 22:17, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

Box office updates

When you update box office numbers, as you did here, change the access date in the citation. Otherwise it makes the edit inaccurate. User Age20035 defiantly never does it, despite being asked to do so repeatedly by several editors. Please don't tell me I should do it. It's the responsibility of the editor who makes the edit. If I changed the access date every time Age20035 makes such an edit, it would consume most of my time on Wikipedia. Thanks. Sundayclose (talk) 22:01, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

Ah my mistake. I didn't even notice the missing date; I have a couple of folks I follow to fix that sort of thing on occasion so I totally get your frustration. Sorry about the bad revert and thanks for the heads up. Millahnna (talk) 15:59, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
