Dispute resolution[edit]

User:Batagur baska has taken me up on the offer I made to support dispute resolution, with respect to your conduct. My idea is email mediation, which is a format rather than a process. The two parties communicate, not directly, but through the mediator.

The point is for the mediator to clarify exactly what is at issue between the parties. It would be good, therefore, if you could email me from my User talk page. Charles Matthews (talk) 09:47, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds like an interesting idea. Sorry for not seeing this earlier - I'm here a lot less frequently and have been run off my feet in real life with one thing and another. I should have time to drop an e-mail into your box at some point over the weekend or next week - but if I forget, please remind me. You should note that I just reverted an edit of theirs (this diff) with a neutral edit summary. I think there's good reasons for doing that. Other than that I don't think I've reverted any edits of theirs at all recently. Blue Square Thing (talk) 06:02, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies if you've noticed this already, but in the least surprising development ever, BB had been found to be a sock of BlackJack. He deserves no attempt at dispute resolution. Spike 'em (talk) 15:18, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Charles was kind enough to let me know in an e-mail. Hope you're well; not seen you around so much. Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:45, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm good thanks, hope you are good too now that the cricket season has started. WP have seen fit to block my w**k IP address as it's behind a proxy server, and I'm still taking things easy. Spike 'em (talk) 09:32, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Taking things easy sounds like a fine move to me Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:43, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redlink user page[edit]

Hello - the effect of having no User page is that "pings" don't seem to work. You might be better off creating a user page as a redirect to your Talk page, or you might be happy as it is! Cheers, Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 15:56, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Shhhnotsoloud: the ping worked fine actually; I don't think red user pages cause problems in that regard, unless there's something technical at play that I'm unaware of? It worked in this instance anyway!! For lots of different reasons I need to have a red one these days I'm afraid. Thanks for your consideration however Blue Square Thing (talk) 19:18, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
