Discretionary sanctions notice[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

RFC has not started yet[edit]

Hello. This is just a heads up that your comments here were removed, same as other editors' comments such as this one, this one, and this one, because the RFC hasn't started yet. The thread you were commenting in is a thread for determining the best way to word the question for the RFC, and as soon as that is ironed out, the actual RFC will open in a new thread (within which you can post your comments for or against). If you have any questions about that, just ask and I'll answer them. Thanks, AzureCitizen (talk) 23:54, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As a follow-up comment, it would be appreciated if you would comment in the thread as to whether or not you support the way the proposed question is phrased (see the top of the thread), or if you think it should be worded differently. Thanks, AzureCitizen (talk) 23:58, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the notice AzureCitizen. I adjusted my answer. CalmHand1 (talk) 01:57, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Would you please delete everything you wrote that comes after "I think a perfectly fine way to word the RFC is "Should Arbery's past criminal history be included".? The statements you wrote after that are causing people to think the RFC has started, and another editor already posted another comment after yours. Thanks, AzureCitizen (talk) 02:10, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
