Slightly belated ANI notice
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Persistant personal attacks, refusal to discuss content issues and editing that is not in accordance with WP:BLP by Kingsif. Thank you. Sorry it's slightly late as after clicking submit on the post where I mentioend you, I got distracted then forgot about it. Nil Einne (talk) 17:38, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hi I didn't want to get you involved to start with as I didn't want it seem that I was canvassing for support. For me it seemed a pretty cut and dried affaire. Dodgy editing and battleground behaviour just required a warning from an admin and that would have been the end of it. However I shouldn't have let the article talk page go down the road of a discussion that should have been kept to user talk pages but as Kingsif reverted every effort to discuss on their page and just came on mine to scream i didn't know how else to do it without going into a ANI. --Dom from Paris (talk) 10:09, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
