TOC right on disambiguation pages

Please stop removing the {{TOC right}} template from disambiguation pages, particularly longer dab pages. It's not mandatory by any means, but moving the TOC to the right is generally considered useful on these pages. You can read the relevant guideline at MOS:DABGROUPING. Cheers! —ShelfSkewed Talk 06:19, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

the default view now locates the toc to the left. Iterresise (talk) 06:22, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Yes, and the TOC right template changes the TOC position to the right, and this is often done on dab pages for the reasons explained in the guideline. —ShelfSkewed Talk 06:27, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

even the default view overrides the template. Iterresise (talk) 06:29, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

But not in every view in every version. And what the default view does is place the TOC in a separate left column, so it doesn't push the content down or waste whitespace. TOC right does this for users who aren't using the default view. —ShelfSkewed Talk 06:39, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Well if it is the default view, there is consensus it is preferred. Why aren't people using CSS? Iterresise (talk) 06:42, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Preferred? I mean, there has to be one default version, and that changes every few years. But users and editors of various vintages and with various preferences may be more comfortable with other available versions. —ShelfSkewed Talk 06:47, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

I suggest taking this up to Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Disambiguation pages or WP:TFD. Let me know if you do. Iterresise (talk) 06:51, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

I was just explaining what the guideline already suggests. If TOC right doesn't interfere with the default view but is potentially beneficial for users using other views, why change the guideline or remove the template? —ShelfSkewed Talk 07:07, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

WP:CREEP Iterresise (talk) 07:10, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Sure: there is technically broad consensus since it was promoted to guideline. That part of the page, though, might not have consensus. Iterresise (talk) 20:53, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

Question from JohnSnook (19:28, 2 October 2023)

Hi, I represent an organization that has a Wiki page with outdated information. Do you know how I begin the process of suggesting/providing new content for consideration? Also, can this content be provided wholesale (like a full document with revisions to existing sections), or does it have be provided section by section, or point by point? Thanks! --JohnSnook (talk) 19:28, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Question from Interlist2 (14:05, 23 October 2023)

Hello Iterresise.

Apologies if you actually wrote that welcome note (vs. auto-generated boilerplate). Thank you for the offer.

I've only done a couple of additions to wiki, one of which had valuable material deleted (imo) prompting my renewel of interest. I opened a topic on the talk page to raise the issues there.

FWIW - I once tried to get back-links added to the chess checkmate page, but was essentially mocked by the editors and gave up on the idea. Pity that.

(Back-links allow quick jumps back to the toc on pages with long lists of items, enabling quick navigation solely with the mouse).

Not sure how involved I'll be here on wiki, but please allow me to express my greetings to you too in return.

Cheers. --Interlist2 (talk) 14:06, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

Community ban

Per the discussion at ANI you are now banned by the Wikipedia community from editing the Englsh Wikipedia as described at WP:CBAN. You may appeal the ban either to the community or to ArbCom, though it is suggested that this be done no sooner than after 6 months from the ban. - Aoidh (talk) 01:27, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

yes: i need to appeal this ban. i just checked ani: found out the discussion was archived and looked and saw this. i was hoping to let it archive with out further incident. Iterresise (talk) 05:35, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

user:Aoidh: what are the next steps? Iterresise (talk) 07:01, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

Aoidh left two links in their message. The first is for ANI which you have seen. The second provides the technical information. Johnuniq (talk) 07:24, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

The specific instructions for appealing this can be found at Wikipedia:Banning policy#Appeals of bans imposed by the community, more specifically the second bullet point that begins with Editors who cannot edit any page except their own talk page. I would highly advise that you read Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks before submitting an appeal, as it gives good advice. The Special situations section that applies here is the Banned users section, but I would advise reading the page in its entirety. - Aoidh (talk) 08:16, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

UTRS appeal #80813 is closed.

Response carried over-- "Welp, the thing to do is to request unblocking on your talk page, copying the unblock template to the bottom of your talk and addressing the concerns by replacing "your reason here " in the unblock template.

  {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}  

As this is a Community Ban, it will then need to be carried over to WP:AN. The gist I get is that you continued editing in a concerning matter after the ANI thread was under way. You'll need to address that as well. You'll need to be prepared to answer the Community's questions and concerns in responses on your talk page, which would then be carried over to the Community discussion. Best." -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 09:51, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Adding ANI discussion link as I do not see it. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 22:43, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Iterresise (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

this is a proforma request and as explained in the u.t.r.s. appeal, i disengaged so that no further incidents would occur and so that none of my statements would be turned against me. this however did still happen and i believe the time has been served.Iterresise (talk) 22:37, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=this is a proforma request and as explained in the u.t.r.s. appeal, i disengaged so that no further incidents would occur and so that none of my statements would be turned against me. this however did still happen and i believe the time has been served.[[User:Iterresise|Iterresise]] ([[User talk:Iterresise#top|talk]]) 22:37, 4 December 2023 (UTC) |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=this is a proforma request and as explained in the u.t.r.s. appeal, i disengaged so that no further incidents would occur and so that none of my statements would be turned against me. this however did still happen and i believe the time has been served.[[User:Iterresise|Iterresise]] ([[User talk:Iterresise#top|talk]]) 22:37, 4 December 2023 (UTC) |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=this is a proforma request and as explained in the u.t.r.s. appeal, i disengaged so that no further incidents would occur and so that none of my statements would be turned against me. this however did still happen and i believe the time has been served.[[User:Iterresise|Iterresise]] ([[User talk:Iterresise#top|talk]]) 22:37, 4 December 2023 (UTC) |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
