I am indefinitely topic banning you from [[Pauley Perrette]] under the BLP [[WP:AC/DS|DS]]. This due to your continued [[WP:BATTLE|battlefield behavior]] that I warned you about. Several people have asked you nicely to take a step back from this topic and you have refused. You therefore leave me no choice but to topic ban you. When your block for [[WP:NPA|personal attacks]] on the talk page of this very biography expires you can [[WP:AC/DS#sanctions.appeals|appeal this restriction in the ways outlined in the procedure]]. (Any appeals to me in less than 30 days will be denied.)

Pauley Perrette coming out on Twitter
A Note of Caution. Since you have asserted at Talk:Pauley Perrette, "I am actively trying to communicate with the asexual community on Twitter right now to help them understand the goings-on here at Wikipedia," please be aware it may be problematic to directly contact the subject of a WP:BLP off-wiki, identifying yourself as a Wikipedia editor and requesting information to supplement an on-wiki discussion in which you are involved. Even if the BLP subject responds wholeheartedly, such public communications (potentially read by, among others, the 738K followers of Pauley Perrette's Twitter account) may also be seen as an attempt to influence a Wikipedia community debate by recruiting new or existing users to support your point of view. Be aware that the Wikipedia guideline WP:STEALTH discourages stealth canvassing—i.e., contacting users off-wiki to persuade them to join in discussions. NedFausa (talk) 06:59, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
- @NedFausa: Actually, I am contacting multiple groups on Twitter (along with Ms. Perrette) who are in an uproar over this. They didn't understand what was going on. So, I explained things, how we (Wikipedia) works. Secondary sources and all that. Folks did seem to understand, but they are still hurt. They feel like this is "asexual eraser" and I understand where they are coming from. A clearly understood meaning ("ace"), used in the Asexuality page and referenced, Ms. Perrette follows 11 other asexuality pages on Twitter, I mean, what else could she be referencing? But why are we asking?
- Someone brought up a good point, if she said
If someone came out saying “Gays, it is me” in a tweet and then changed their bio to say “Gay.” as well, would you not allow their page to be edited to say they “came out as homosexual” until “it gets reported” despite it coming from the person themself in two separate places?
. I think not. Wikipedia would be done in the eyes of the media and everyone. That celeb would sic their followers on Wikipedia. It would be over. So why must Ms. Perrette have to jump through hoops for coming out as Asexual? By extension, why must I not quell, what is that very same upset on Twitter, because I'm being "STEALTH"?
- Point of fact, I mentioned in my tweet, who I was on Wikipedia, so I outed my own Wikipedia account on Twitter, there was no stealth there. Plus, one person from that group had already joined the conversation prior to my explaining the goings on of Wikipedia. So, I didn't encourage that person to come here. I also showed people where the discussion was. I didn't say "come here and share your voice", no. I shared the link. BIG difference. Mole hill, meet Mountain, because that's what you are trying to make and it ain't working.
- Back to the bigger point. Why is no one taking Ms. Perrette following the 11 asexuality pages on Twitter seriously? Why are we having to wait for an "unambiguous reference"? Would we do the same for a gay person? A lesbian person? A trans person? Is Wikipedia suffering from a little aphobia? Maybe we are being different to one group of people when we wouldn't to another? I think we need to look at ourselves, a good hard look. Because we wouldn't do this to anyone in the LGBT community, but why the IAQ part? - Neutralhomer • Talk • 18:19 on January 22, 2020 (UTC)
- Neutralhomer, I urge you to be cautious. As for a "lesbian person", please consider the case of Jodie Foster. Literally years of discussion took place on the talk page of her article and repeated attempts to call her a lesbian were reverted because the quality of the sourcing was poor. So the answer is, yes, unambiguous self-identification is required to say that a person is gay or lesbian or transgender or Jewish or Presbyterian or Buddhist or atheist. Or asexual. This is not negotiable and so do not add that content back without a better reference.
- The fact that she follows asexual Twitter accounts is evidence of nothing. I follow several transgender people on social media and I am not transgender. Concluding that she is asexual because of who she follows is original research and completely unacceptable.
- If a reporter for a reliable source asks her to clarify and she unambiguously self-identifies as asexual, then the matter can be revisited at that time. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 23:55, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Cullen328: That's surprising and we failed there too. I would like to know where WP:TWITTER comes into play? That is an extension of WP:V. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 01:19 on January 23, 2020 (UTC)
- "Aces, it is actually me" is most definitely not an unambiguous self-identification. Even if we accept that she is probably using "Aces" as a synonym for asexual people, she has not said "I am an ace". You have repeatedly pointed out that she follows asexual Twitter accounts. Perhaps she is addressing those people to reassure them that she is an actual follower of those Twitter accounts and that it isn't a fake PP account. There are several of them on Twitter. The sentence is vague, ambiguous and cryptic. It is insufficient for the content you wish to add. I intend to enforce BLP policy in this matter. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 01:34, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Cullen328: But, as we can prove, just by looking at the account, it's a verified account. Notice the blue and white checkmark. So, it's not a fake. Plus, we use the term "ace" in our own article on Asexuality. So, I am not seeing how this is a problem. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 01:44 on January 23, 2020 (UTC)
- Please stay on track here, Neutralhomer. I have never challenged the validity of the tweet. I have never contested that asexual is one of the many definitions of the word "ace" (although that word also means "close friend" and that usage is much older). So please do not waste my time with strawman arguments. The problem is the vague, ambiguous and cryptic nature of the tweet. There is no way that tweet can be read as an unambiguous declaration that she is asexual, and it is therefore inadequate as a reference for that claim on Wikipedia. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 02:13, 23 January 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not wasting your time, sorry you think I am. I'm trying to have a discussion. I believe saying that it's not unambiguous is challanging the validity of the tweet. To me, we are saying she isn't saying what she is saying. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 02:21 on January 23, 2020 (UTC)

Well, it's all snowballed. Now it's happening at Emilie Autumn, Janeane Garofalo, and Mary Cagle, if you're interested. Adam9007 (talk) 01:00, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
- Nice bit of canvassing there, Adam9007. 165.120.15.119 (talk) 01:02, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
- Oh please... I just thought he might be interested in it, seeing as it's closely related to the kerfuffle he's involved in (note that I haven't asked him to say or do anything; I just pointed it out to him). Adam9007 (talk) 01:05, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
- Did you point it out to any of the other participants (i.e. ones not supporting your viewpoint?) 165.120.15.119 (talk) 01:07, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
- I think most of them are already aware (is there anyone who hasn't edited those pages or the BLP noticeboard discussion)? Adam9007 (talk) 01:09, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
- Is this good enough? Adam9007 (talk) 01:13, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
- 165.120.15.119, I was offline and I made it known I would be, so I thank Adam9007 for letting me know about this. It's not canvassing, it's just a heads up. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 02:25 on January 24, 2020 (UTC)

BLP DS
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

- I don't think that warning is saying you cannot edit those pages, just that simply, because this is the BLP topic area, there are discretionary sanctions that can be imposed by any admin who feels your editors run against the results and motions set by Arbcom in the linked case. (but I don't know for sure if that's Guerillero's effect). --Masem (t) 02:41, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

You are being asked to stop treating Wikipedia as a battleground or a fight. Failing to do that will result in your ejection from the parts of Wikipedia where you are displaying that behavior. --Guerillero | Parlez Moi 02:42, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
- Neutralhomer, I do not know why you pinged me. I told you that I had already said everything I intended to say about Pauley Perette, at least until significant new information emerges. I am not the type of editor who enjoys repeating myself over and over and over again. Your repetitive remarks have not changed my mind, and my previous remarks stand. So please ping me if there is something new and substantive to discuss, but until then, I am done with this. Thank you. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 02:44, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Cullen328: It appeared Guerillero was offline, so I pinged you for an answer since I knew you were around. That's why I pinged you. He answered, so you weren't needed. Apologizes. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 02:46 on January 25, 2020 (UTC)
- @Guerillero: That is not what I asked. I will ask again, and I would like a "yes" or "no" answer. Am I being told not to edit the Pauley Perrette, Emilie Autumn, Janeane Garofalo, and Mary Cagle pages (along with their respective talk pages) and the discussions currently going on on various pages under threat of sanctions? - Neutralhomer • Talk • 02:46 on January 25, 2020 (UTC)
- No, but you need to edit collegially with the understanding that the people you may disagree with are here to build an encyclopedia. --Guerillero | Parlez Moi 02:56, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Guerillero: Good. My next question is why this was only placed on my talk page (and no one else's) and why I only got the public threat of a topic ban. No one has been collegial in this entire thing. This has been a mess and we are all to blame. So why just me? Why target me? - Neutralhomer • Talk • 03:02 on January 25, 2020 (UTC)

You must comply with BLP policy now and in the future, and must refrain from all personal attacks on other editors. This is not negotiable. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 07:31, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Cullen328: Excuse me! I make one post, responding to Ned's behavior on this entire thing, this entire discussion, but my behavior is out of line? No.

- Cullen328, (or any admin) remember how you said "if there is something new and substantive to discuss, but until then, I am done with this" and then immediately after my post saying "No one has been collegial in this entire thing", you replied Point out where I have not been collegial. Diffs, please.? I believe you and I are too tightly connected for you to make a block of me. This would be a prime example of a bad block and misuse of admin tools.

Neutralhomer (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Cullen328 was extremely involved both in the discussions that were ongoing and here on my talk page. The BLP DS said "uninvolved administrators", which is clear, Cullen is not. On top of that, while I was blocked for "harrassment", another editor (and IP editor) continued harrassing behavior unabated by Cullen (or any other admin), not so much as a warning. Cullen's block of me was outside of the letter of the BLP DS law and a misuse of his admin tools. I am requesting that I be immediately unblocked and that Cullen be strongly admonished for misuse of his admin tools. There's been enough mess and hurt out of this. If the block will stand, I ask that the editor and IP editor linked be given the same. Fair's fair. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 12:39 on January 26, 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- I won't review this request - but I will give you some (hopefully helpful) feedback. Much of your request seems to focus on the behavior of others, instead of addressing your own behavior. This typically does not lead to a favorable result for the blocked user, in my experience. SQLQuery me! 16:37, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- @SQL: I didn't expect anything favorable. I am not going to address my behavior because Cullen misused his tools. But, we won't talk about that either. I expected that too. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 20:55 on January 26, 2020 (UTC)
- 'IP editor' accused of harassment above here. That Neutralhomer considers this post [1] by me to constitute 'harassment' is absurd. I stated that the 'bashing' mentioned in earlier posts was irrelevant, and then commented solely on the validity and appropriateness of the sources under discussion. As for the second post [2], if Neutralhomer considers my characterisation as 'pestering' of his Tweeting the subject of the article in an unsuccessful attempt to get her confirm her sexuality to constitute 'harassment' I can only suggest that others might see his own behaviour in this instance to be of much more concern. It seems self-evident at this point that either Neutralhomer cannot distinguish between a valid dispute over article content and actual harassment, or that Neutralhomer knows full well that they aren't the same thing, but uses such accusations to try to game the system, in a similar manner to the earlier evidence-free SPI [3] apparently was. I see nothing wrong with Cullen's block, but if another admin thinks it appropriate to review it, I have little doubt that they will reach the same conclusion as to its validity. And may well see this ridiculous attempt to portray an entirely legitimate posting as 'harassment' as grounds to extend the block. 165.120.15.119 (talk) 16:44, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- Literally none of those diffs you cite can be fairly read as harassment. I don't know why you've chosen this hill to die on, but you seriously need to step back, take a break, put the computer down, and come back to edit some different topics. It's clear to literally everyone else that you're acting inappropriately here. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 17:11, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- @NorthBySouthBaranof: It's clear to literally no one that that two editors, NedFausa and 165.120.15.119 continue to harrass and HOUND me across different pages, but I can't defend myself, and they aren't blocked...or even warned. So why is my behavior special? - Neutralhomer • Talk • 20:55 on January 26, 2020 (UTC)
- I would like to point out that all of my participation in the Pauley Perrette matter has been in an administrative role to explain and enforce BLP policy. I have no interest in the article other than that. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 17:32, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- Meaning you were WP:INVOLVED and shouldn't have made the block....period. BLP DS states "uninvolved administrators", you yourself just said "[your] participation in the Pauley Perrette matter has been in an administrative role to explain and enforce BLP policy". That "participation" is your involvement in the matter. You know you shouldn't have blocked me and you can hide behind semantics, but you are wrong. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 20:55 on January 26, 2020 (UTC)
- You are incorrect. WP:INVOLVED says:
One important caveat is that an administrator who has interacted with an editor or topic area purely in an administrative role, or whose prior involvements are minor or obvious edits which do not show bias, is not involved and is not prevented from acting in an administrative capacity in relation to that editor or topic area. Warnings, calm and reasonable discussion and explanation of those warnings, advice about community norms, and suggestions on possible wordings and approaches do not make an administrator 'involved'.
I am uninvolved, because all of my interactions with you have been in a purely administrative role, beginning with enforcing BLP policy and now blocking you for harassment and personal attacks on another editor. You are welcome to submit another unblock request to be evaluated by another administrator. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 21:28, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

Topic Ban from Pauley Perrette under BLP Discretionary Sanctions
I am indefinitely topic banning you from Pauley Perrette under the BLP DS. This due to your continued battlefield behavior that I warned you about. Several people have asked you nicely to take a step back from this topic and you have refused. You therefore leave me no choice but to topic ban you. When your block for personal attacks on the talk page of this very biography expires you can appeal this restriction in the ways outlined in the procedure. (Any appeals to me in less than 30 days will be denied.) I am going to look dimly upon any attempts to import this outlook to other biographies or other parts of the encyclopedia. --Guerillero | Parlez Moi 21:33, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
