Can I get you to create [[:Category:Wikipedia:Reference desk]]? There is a bit of a need for it. There is eight pages and a subcat in [[:Category:Wikipedia help forums]] that can go into it, and it should also have [[:Category:Reader help]]. Thanks -- [[User:Alan Liefting|Alan Liefting]] ([[User_talk:Alan_Liefting|talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Alan_Liefting|contribs]]) 05:26, 21 February 2013 (UTC) |

:I prefer to interact with your topic ban only as an administrator, because of [[WP:INVOLVED]]. At the same time, you have continued to edit categories since my previous warning. Any additional violations will result in a block. The letter of the topic ban is that you are not allowed to make particular edits. But the ''point'' of the topic ban is that you should simply ignore categorization issues of non-articles, rather than asking other people to make the edits that you are not permitted to make. — Carl <small>([[User:CBM|CBM]] · [[User talk:CBM|talk]])</small> 15:25, 21 February 2013 (UTC) |

Did you take the time to view what the template contains - pls note the template contains all types of help pages including those for our readers and for our editors. Thank you for your time.Moxy (talk) 00:43, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, I did see that but, given the number of editors vs the number of readers, the reader help pages should be as uncluttered as possible and be solely focused on the needs of the the readers. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 00:49, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
- Do you mean from Template:Help navigation ? No, I don't think that is necessary. Readers don't need editing help stuff but editors need reader help stuff (for newbie editors especially). -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 00:57, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

Topic ban
Although your topic ban has not been amended [1], you have continued to violate it by editing in the category namespace, e.g. [2]. The previous appeal ended because you wrote, "I am willing to have the current topic ban remain in place and maybe it can be revisited at some point in the future." Because the last block as for one month, and your appeal of the topic ban was not successful, the next block would be for two months. Please avoid any further category-related edits outside the main namespace while the topic ban is in place. — Carl (CBM · talk) 03:51, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
I just wanted to make you aware of this discussion I started at Winter storm naming. I have no intentions of making any changes to the article myself, but was just hoping to get input from editors previously involved in the article (or recently-closed AfD) in an effort to improve the article and clarify its purpose. I will leave any changes to the consensus of other editors who decide what's best. Your participation would be welcome, regardless of your views on the issue. Thank you. 76.189.111.199 (talk) 22:15, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
Sockpuppets on Rlcwil
You talked to BernsteinBot about the sockpuppet accounts on Wikipedia:Database reports/Red-linked categories with incoming links. Just as an example of why not to sweep these things under the carpet - I took a look at what was needed, realised that it was trivial to do it by AWB or a bot, and BattyBot has now filed a BRFA to do this automatically. So that will be ~200 cats removed from this report at a stroke. Le Deluge (talk) 12:38, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the notification. There is quite the discussion at the BRFA! Once again there is endless discussion on a trivial issue (relatively speaking) while the important work goes undone. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 19:20, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
