Article titles and capitalisation

• Wikipedia:Article titles (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  • During Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Apteva, involving disputes over dash/hyphen style, notably mentioning Comet Hale–Bopp, Dicklyon (talk · contribs) added CHB as a 21st example of using common names for article titles. Apteva reverted. Ohconfucius reverted. Dohn Joe changed the example to Halley's Comet, in an apparent attempt to avoid the controversy. Noetica reverted. Wikid77 removed it again. JHunterJ reverted. To end the multi-party edit war, I changed it back to Halley's Comet, and on the talkpage, I explained that the next person to revert it would be blocked under the discretionary sanctions authorized for these articles. Should a consensus discussion determine that there don't need to be 21 examples, or that there is a reason to favor CHB over Halley for some non-pointy reason, that of course will not call for a block.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 01:15, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Gibraltar

*For the reasons explicated in much greater detail in this AE thread:

1. Wee Curry Monster (talk · contribs), Imalbornoz (talk · contribs), Pfainuk (talk · contribs), and Richard Keatinge (talk · contribs) are placed on the following restriction: they may not make any substantive edit to Gibraltar unless they have posted on Talk:Gibraltar explaining their proposed edit, and 48 hours have elapsed since the time of the posting, and no editor objected to the proposed edit. For the purposes of this restriction: "substantive edit" means any edit that is not purely a typo fix, formatting change, or an exemption to the 3RR rule; "object" includes any expression of opposition to the proposed edit, regardless of the reason behind the opposition.
2. The four editors listed above are further banned from starting or participating in any discussion concerning any events, occurrences, or incidents that occurred between 1600 AD and 1900 AD, if such event, occurrence, or incident took place in, or is otherwise related to, Gibraltar, broadly construed. This restriction applies to all namespaces and all pages.
3. Violations of either of the above restriction will result in an immediate ban from Gibraltar and its talk page, as well as any further sanctions an uninvolved administrator may choose to impose.
4. Any uninvolved administrator may, for good cause, grant an exemption to the restriction in item 2 on a case-by-case basis. Such exemptions may be revoked if abused.
5. As an application of item 4, an exemption to item 2 is granted to all four editors as follows: item 2 does not apply to participation in a binding content RFC regarding their present disputes. The RFC is to be supervised by an uninvolved administrator, who may set such limitations as necessary to ensure the smooth progress of the RFC. Like all exemptions, this exemption may be revoked if abused.
6. Restrictions 1 and 2 will be lifted upon the conclusion of the content RFC referred to in item 5, provided that such RFC yields a consensus on the wording to be used, and the editor accepts the outcome of the RFC and conform their future edits to it. They may not attempt to change the outcome except by initiating a new RFC no less than one year after the original RFC concludes.
7. All involved editors are warned in the strongest terms that disruption of the RFC process, in whatever form, will be viewed with great disfavor, and will lead to sanctions up to and including a lengthy block and/or topic ban.

T. Canens (talk) 08:46, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

The above restriction, placed by T. Canens in May 2011, has been lifted on appeal per this AE discussion. EdJohnston (talk) 03:23, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

• To clear out any uncertainty whether the 1RR rule persists following the motion that superseded "all extant remedies" of this case, "as amended and clarified", all articles could be reasonably construed as being related to The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland, are placed under an 1RR rule under the authority of #Standard discretionary sanctions. The 1RR rule shall be construed and enforced in a manner that is identical in all respects to the 1RR rule that existed before the motion was enacted. T. Canens (talk) 16:32, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
