Restriction Amendment Idea

@RhinosF1, @Reception123, or @Dmehus, I was just wondering if maybe my restriction can amended to say that I simply can't edit non-test pages here. I feel that that would be sufficient to keep me out of trouble here. ApexAgunomu (My changes here | Drop me a line) 14:30, 16 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

ApexAgunomu, that was my idea that I expressed to you on IRC in the #miraheze-testwiki channel. It would likely last for at least a month or two months, though, to ensure you can follow it. I still wouldn't be comfortable restoring your bureaucrat bit before the end of April, though, unless you can obtain the support of at least two other non-Consul active community members, or another Consul.

Okay, that sounds good with me. So can I now start editing other places besides just my userspace? ApexAgunomu (My changes here | Drop me a line) 15:39, 16 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I mean, you already have been, and no one's said anything, so it probably seems fine. I'd suggest making your tests specific to specific special test pages, though. If adding gibberish, please use your userspace sandbox or the community sandbox, though, okay? Dmehus (talk) 16:53, 16 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Okay, I'll keep the gibberish limited to the sandboxes. ApexAgunomu (My changes here | Drop me a line) 17:25, 16 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Also, I tried to close a discussion on your Testwiki.wiki talk page, because I think the issue is resolved. However, someone reversed it and said I shouldn't close discussions. I apologize if I did the wrong thing there. ApexAgunomu (My changes here | Drop me a line) 17:31, 16 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm fine with this. You've been sensible enough. That's kinda why I wasn't pushing on being about of your user space. I was treating it as advice more to help you. RhinosF1 (talk) 10:23, 17 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Thanks. I'll keep being sensible in my edits here. ApexAgunomu (My changes here | Drop me a line) 10:28, 17 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Your recent test block

Please note that, as per the Blocking policy and Testing policy, test blocks should generally not be performed on other users without their permission. I would strongly advise you against performing test blocks on real users without seeking their permission. — Chrs (talk) 23:20, 17 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

To be clear, I would generally concur with this, though we are flexible on this, but given the current appeal of their restriction, it's perhaps not the best move. I personally don't mind, as it was less than five minutes and was clearly a marked test block. We may want to create a {{Users opted in to be blocked for testing purposes}} template or something.

It does say that in TestWiki:Blocking policy, and it's fine, but it also says you should leave a note on their user talk page explaining your tests. In any case, it's entirely up to you. I don't mind you blocking me, but just maybe avoid the same block test over and over. :) Dmehus (talk) 23:35, 17 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
