Regarding this edit: just a suggestion, which I appreciate is unsolicited, so feel free to ignore it. Perhaps consider not using a smiley when posting a notification about an editor receiving bad news? I understand that it's directed towards the bureaucrats as appreciation for their efforts. To me it feels like a smiley isn't wholly suitable, but I realize that others may isolate the surrounding context to just "Many thanks". I appreciate any consideration you may have for this matter. isaacl (talk) 22:35, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Isaacl: Funnily enough, someone told me off-wiki that it read passive-aggressively. I meant it totally genuinely as a thanks to the 'crats, so I hoped that it was just a one-off reading! Apparently not – honestly, I'll just go change that. Thanks for telling me! and lest there's any doubt here, that was also meant genuinely. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 22:39, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't doubt the sincerity of the thanks (or the intent to limit the context to the thanks), so I didn't read anything passive-aggressive into it. I know how accustomed everyone has become to adding smileys of various sorts to try to convey emotion, so I understand how it can be reflexive. I might just be more old-school in writing style than others when it comes to delivering bad news. Thanks for your time and effort in this matter! isaacl (talk) 22:47, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A real relief to see someone else there. I don't have a lot of free time to edit and this has been driving me nuts! So many new editors, mainly SPAs. Generally good faith. Doug Weller talk 08:22, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again, nice to see you. If you remember 13 months ago, I was topic banned from GENSEX, which you closed, where you told me you would see me on the other side. In December, the topic ban was removed and replaced with 1RR in the same scope; I pinged you both in November and now thinking that was enough since I didn't want to look like forum shopping, but per the suggestion of Liz, I am notifying you now that I am appealing to have the sanction fully lifted.
