Otherwise, you will have shown that you have no interest in engaging with the community or improving your behaviour, and we, the admin team, will have to impose a longer ban on you. Because I know people are sometimes too busy to edit the Wiki, so I'll give you until Sunday — ''or'' until you otherwise show you are active on the Wiki. If you have but a few minutes to devote to the Wiki before Sunday, '''make it that'''. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 17:05, October 28, 2020 (UTC) | Otherwise, you will have shown that you have no interest in engaging with the community or improving your behaviour, and we, the admin team, will have to impose a longer ban on you.

== RE:Admin behaviour == | |||
Okay, across all messages that were left in several pages, there is a '''lot''' of to go through, but I'll try to adress everything: | |||
* Firstly, it's common admin practice to not close threads in which they participated, but it is ''not'', but any means, a hard rule (and even then, this is a practice most thought to inclusion debates). | |||
* Secondly, it's quite hard to say that Scrooge MacDuck went closing them all "in his favour" when his position was for the story to be valid, and still he closed the second thread mantaining it's invalidity. | |||
* Mere two hours after a thread on ''How the Monk Got His Habit'' was closed, you opened ''another'' thread about it. A ruling on our coverage of the story had already, for better or worse, been made. | |||
* But all of that is kind of tangent to the reason you sent the message: your block. Asking an admin to review another's "to be completely incorrect" is exactly the spirit of [[T:POINT]]. There will ''always'' be people who don't like/agree with the outcome of a thread; if everyone agreed on every subject, we wouldn't need threads in the first place. We simply cannot go "reviewing" every decision a given user didn't like simply because they don't agree with it, or else we'd spend our entire time here doing just that. Therefore, a block (specially one as short as two weeks is not far fetched for a T:POINT violation. | |||
* Now, moving on to the [[River Song]] discussion: you were part of that discussion from the start, so you ''knew'' that it was happening. Yet you decided to make changes regarding that discussion '''before''' a ruling over the discussion was made on the talk page. This is a ''direct'' violation of [[T:BOUND]]. It matter little whether you, me or any other user agreed or disagreed with it. [[T:BOUND|'''Until and unless a rule is actually changed, you are bound by the rule as it currently reads. Do not take action based upon your proposal [...]''']] (emphasis mine). As far as I can see, the person who made the first change in months regarding River's species was ''you'' . '''Please''' wait for rulings on consensus before carrying out any changes. | |||
Now, (hopefully) bringing this conundrum to an end: Scrooge's first blocking was not in the wrong, and he already (publicly) stated he will not give you a further block on this subject. In a further act of [[Help:Assume good faith|showing good faith]], neither will I. Moving forward, let's put our efforts into actually editing the wiki and improving it, but, and I'll emphasize this again, [[T:BOUND|'''Until and unless a rule is actually changed, you are bound by the rule as it currently reads. Do not take action based upon your proposal [...]''']]. Your edits are extremely welcome here, but we can't go back on forth on the ruling of threads just because we disagree with it.
