== Adding Archive Header to [[Test Wiki:Request permissions]] ==

::The outcome here is that, yes, [[User:Piccadilly|Seiyena]]'s behaviour was indeed inappropriate, and the racially insensitive and homophobic comments also inappropriate, [[User:Kazrok4545|Kazrok4545]]'s [[Special:Redirect/logid/30479|block]] was also inappropriate for a few reasons. Firstly, as it was quite clear at [[Test Wiki:Request permissions]] that this was a [[Test Wiki:Stewards|Steward]]-managed user conduct case, the block was inappropriate. Secondly, administrators here are, fundamentally, non-test administrators. Blocking open proxies, deleting spam, or reverting vandalism is fine, but serious user conduct issues [[rfc:2119|'''must''']] be left to Stewards, unless they've explicitly delegated certain aspects (i.e., my saying that <code>[[Test Wiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> could be revoked if the conditions were breached, for example). Finally, and philosophically, part of developing good [[Test Wiki:Administrators|administrator]] skills beyond technical capability is developing the diplomatic skills and engaging with users to think of other, creative and, crucially, long-term solutions that are at least somewhat amenable to all. I ''had'' meant to ask [[User:Chrs|Arcversin]] to import the abuse filter from [[mhtest:|Public Test Wiki]], but my other responsibilities precluded that until now, so I ''do'' take that responsibility for not having done that sooner. Nevertheless, this is the solution I believe is the best. If, after a month or so (from now), it's clear Seiyena needs another time away from Test Wiki, I will make that call. Nevertheless, [[User:Piccadilly|Seiyena]], to be clear, you ''can'' curse, though I encourage you ''not'' to. What you '''cannot''' do is make racist, racially insensitive, xenophobic, or homophobic comments. Thus, [[User:Kazrok4545|Kazrok4545]]'s rights revocation is {{Done|endorsed}} by this [[Test Wiki:Stewards|Steward]]. You may re-apply for administrator after a minimum of 5-7 days, if a bureaucrat is satisfied with your good edits and log actions. You may then re-apply for bureaucrat on or after May 1st, again under the same terms. I have added several minor user groups, with a particular emphasis on <code>researcher</code>, which [[rfc:2119|''should'']] allow you review your revision deleted [[Special:DeletedContributions/Piccadilly|contributions]] and log actions, to help you understand what you '''cannot''' do here and make good edits. Together with [[User:Chrs|Arcversin]]'s abuse filter, hopefully this should guide you to constructive editing here. [[User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 03:50, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

{{ping|Dmehus}} Could you or another Steward please add <code>& page_id == 702</code> to [[Special:AbuseFilter/52|abuse filter 52]], as the second to last line? This would help prevent false positives (which result in no-warning indef blocks) by excluding [[Test Wiki:Request permissions]] from said filter. Also, is there any way for non-Stewards to get edit access to those filters? —&nbsp;<span style="font-variant: small-caps">[[User:Chrs|Arcversin]] ([[User talk:Chrs|talk]])</span> 01:29, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
