 | Scam warning If you are visiting this page because someone claiming to be me contacted you asking for any payment of any type, it is not me and you are being scammed. If they are threatening to delete or take other adverse action against some article, they can't actually do that and you should not under any circumstances pay them any money or further engage with them. See also this scam warning regarding the Articles for Creation process and editors who edit for pay. |
 | As I frequently work at the arbitration enforcement noticeboard, I am "aware" of all the various areas covered by discretionary sanctions, and this notice may be considered evidence of awareness if enforcement is requested. It is not necessary to leave me notices advising me of such areas. |

Please read before posting
[edit]- Post all new sections under a new header at the bottom of this page, not at random. If you make it clear you ignored these instructions by placing it elsewhere, I am likely to ignore your request in turn.
- If you leave me a message here, I will respond to it here, as fragmented discussions are confusing. I may or may not leave you a notice that I've responded on your talk page. If you specifically request that I do (or do not) give you such a notice when I respond, I'll honor that request. If I contact you on your talk page, I will watchlist it so that I can respond there. If you'd like to leave me a notice when you respond (a ping will also suffice), it would be appreciated, and you'll probably receive a faster followup.
- No lulztxtspk or emojis on my talk page, please. "You" is spelled "you", "though" is spelled "though", "because" is spelled "because", "people" is spelled "people", and so on. There is no character limit on Wikipedia comments, so there is no need whatsoever for ad-hoc abbreviating. If you don't even take yourself seriously, don't expect me to take you seriously either.
- If you are an admin here to ask me about someone I blocked for vandalism or spamming/advertising, they've agreed to stop it, and you believe they intend to edit productively, go ahead and unblock them. If you still want my opinion please feel free to ask, but there's no obligation. For more complex cases I would appreciate a heads-up, but please go ahead with your best judgment if I don't seem to be online. I would appreciate it if you'd let me know after you do.
- If you are here to discuss edits made to an article, please use the article talk page, not this talk page, to discuss them. If I made the edit and the question is specifically directed at me, you are welcome to ping me.
- If you email me a question or request, and do not indicate why the matter is sensitive and must be handled privately (and such is not immediately obvious), I may ignore it or respond on your talk page rather than by return email. Talk pages are open to other editors to read, and so are the preferred method of communication for matters involving Wikipedia. If the matter you are speaking to me about is Wikipedia-related and would not violate anyone's privacy by being posted publicly, please use my talk page instead of email. This does not, of course, apply to editors who are blocked from editing, though I still may respond on your talk page rather than by return email.
Unsectioned message
[edit]Hello Seraphimblade. I am reaching out to request that you kindly consider removing the block on my page. Following the block, I have continued to make contributes via Wikipedia Article Wizard. I have successfully published one page, while the others are still being reviewed. I hope this can serve as a testament to my dedication as a Wikipedia contributor as well as evidence that I have learnt from the errors you pointed out. Once again, thank you for providing an opportunity for me to further learn about Wikipedia best practices. Looking forward to hearing from you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cece GFI (talk • contribs)
- Cece GFI, I'm glad to hear that, but I don't think one successful article creation is quite it. You're on the right track, I think, but I'd want to see more than that. Seraphimblade Talk to me 17:44, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
- I understand your concerns. I have created several other articles on notable persons and events in Africa, that are yet to be reviewed. I have also been a constant contributor to Wikipedia since 2023, with majority of my contributions having little to no errors. I guarantee you that I have learnt from my errors and will make even more significant contributions. Kindly consider removing the ban. Thank you. Cece GFI (talk) 18:18, 12 March 2025 (UTC)
- I already considered it and already answered. Seraphimblade Talk to me 18:27, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

RFC on SBM
[edit]Hi. I'm reaching out because you closed this RFC on WP:SBM. We are currently discussing a publication on this site here. [1] Am I correct in assuming that, per community consensus, publications in Science-Based Medicine should not be used for statements of fact, and attribution is recommended when citing them? The article in question appears to be a response by AJ Eckert, a leader in WPATH, to findings by NICE (the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence). [2] In it, he questions the UK authorities' conclusions while criticizing his opponents, with which the UK authorities disagree. Is it appropriate to present a self-published opinion as fact in wikivoice, especially given the conflict of interest, since WPATH is not an independent source regarding its critics? We had a similar discussion about this source in the past, as it was used multiple times throughout the article, sometimes for statements of facts with no attribution. [3]. Thank you! Sean Waltz O'Connell (talk) 10:48, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
- Sean Waltz O'Connell, I think the closing statement is clear enough, and I don't have anything to add to it. Seraphimblade Talk to me 15:19, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Deletion review for Ali Niknam
[edit]An editor has asked for a deletion review of Ali Niknam. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Nyasalones (talk) 12:50, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
- Nyasalones, you do realize that it if you disagree with a closure, you should discuss it prior to going to DRV? You seem to have missed that. Seraphimblade Talk to me 14:56, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
