Stopping THE OWL
Hi.
I'm here to ask you to block THE OWL to prevent any further damage to the wiki.
I'm sure you've seen the discussions during the Moderator elections.
- They've shown time and time again that they do not want to listen and back up. They claimed they want to fix their mess or go away, but the next day they start asking for more and more changes and access.
- The Valve contractor admin already called out their mess as unholy and singlehandedly causing havok, yet it doesn't seem to calm them down the slightest. The promise of 'I'll continue working in July' sounds nothing short of a threat at this point.
- They want to change things while appealing to strawman argument like 'all modern designers'.
- Now they even directly admit they're trolling. ("I'm just messing with you")
For the best of the wiki and to prevent any more tampering, please take action.
P. S. I apologise if I'm misusing your own talk page for this moderation appeal. I'm not sure where they would otherwise go, these kinds of requests? Should I instead host it on the Noticeboard? Cvoxalury (talk) 05:18, 19 June 2024 (PDT)
- Hi! You and everyone else are welcomed to use my talk page for this. There is no restriction really. I have monitored the situation for a while now and seeing the recent discussions, it seems clear to me that THE OWL is at the center of attention and multiple people seem unhappy with the wiki updates. I also have a hard time seeing what page I should go to to make a simple minor edit due to nested templates. After careful consideration, I have blocked this user temporarily. Let me know if things do not seem to improve moving forward. Peter Brev (talk) 06:27, 19 June 2024 (PDT)
