== NSS Removal Discussion: Bhairava7 ==

Hello everyone. After a conversation with the steward team, I am opening a discussion about the removal of non-steward suppressor rights from {{noping|Bhairava7}} with the rationale that the user doesn't fully understand the purpose of suppression and what should be suppressed vs. public. Additionally, they have leaked their own information (not realizing that it is PII) and created more work for the rest of the suppression team. I would also note that warnings were issued privately to the user. I'll lay out a brief summary of some things that have happened, but it is difficult as the matter contains non-public log information.

First, Bhairava7 leaked their location information on an alt with [[special:diff/55733|this edit]], which is now hidden from public view. For additional context, the user seemingly randomly said and described the area and city/country in which they live. This is an extremely poor example for a NSS to set, and Drummingman had to suppress the edit.

Second, he [https://testwiki.wiki/index.php?title=Special:Log&logid=59012 blocked his own IP address], which again leaked his personal information, including his location. (You can very easily geolocate IP addresses) When confronted about this, he seemed unaware of the consequences of such action. I had to suppress this one.

Thirdly, Bhairava has suppressed edits that don't require suppression, which is generally a simple mistake that we discuss as a team (I myself am guilty of this). However, combined with our other concerns of incompetence regarding suppression, this is concerning.

In conclusion, I am requesting that the non-steward suppression rights of Bhairava7 are removed for the above reasons.
