Welcoming users to Meta
Hi DarkMatterMan4500,

Thank you for welcoming new Miraheze users to Meta, as you did with welcoming this user; however, I thought it would be helpful to let you know of our non-codified conventions and guidelines with respect to welcoming new users, which is to welcome new users only after they've made contributions to Meta. The two reasons for this are as follows:


 * 1) New users usually have their account automatically attached to Meta wiki without ever having any intention of participating here; and,
 * 2) New users also end up being spam-only or vandalism-only accounts, so there's no need to welcome what will be those single-purpose accounts. Instead, it is best to check their Special:Contributions and welcome new users only when they make their first (or more) contribution(s) to Meta.

As well, in this case, OmarTheSponge is a legitimate alternate account of another user, as seen here. Because that user has yet to login to that alternate user account, it's not yet attached as a global account, as seen here.

Also, separately, regarding the Twinkle templates, Naleksuh is working on de-Wikipedia-ifying them, as we don't use all those templates. So, for now, you may want to just use  There's no need to sign your posts, as one will be included for you with that substituted template.

Cheers,

 * That's quite understandable, especially since I am replying a bit late to this thread now. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 20:36, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, I will reiterate what Dmehus has says: Don't use Twinkle for welcoming as this part was not changed for Miraheze for the moment. Thanks! HeartsDo (Talk / Global / Wiki Creator) 11:54, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Very well. I will wait until it is complete. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 11:57, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Guiding you on appropriate use of the Report tool
Hi DarkMatterMan4500,

Thank you for being the first person to use the newly added Report tool in your report of this revision; however, as far as I can tell, that doesn't require reporting. In my view, this tool should be for reporting specific revisions requiring (a) revision deletion (after which an administrator would privately determine whether suppression is required after handling) or (b) reversion (i.e., blatant vandalism). I'd like to allow all registered users to use the report tool, but if it is misused too often, we may need to restrict it to patrollers, perhaps. , do you have anything to add?

Cheers,

 * Alright then, thank you very much. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:11, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅, thank you for understanding. Dmehus (talk) 19:13, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

We REALLY need to talk, this is getting out of hand
I want to know why you and DuchessTheSponge have been blocking me on wikis I haven’t done anything wrong on. First of all, let me just say, I unblocked you and everyone else on The Wow House Wiki. I know you and Duchess hate me but seriously, this is getting far to out of hand, and if it continues, I may have no choice but to get the stewards involved. Because I caused no drama on those wikis, and by blocking me you are just opening up more opportunities for drama. You and Duchess don’t have to like me, but since I am gonna be here for a while, can we please just co-exist in the meantime, and you and Duchess can unblock me, and we can have peace. Once my FANDOM global block is up, I may be returning there. Also, I literally have been inactive for the past few days. I have not made any threats. I admit I did start a little drama on Terrible TV Shows Wiki over that blog post but I got my month block for that and learned by lesson, there is no need to continue blocking me cross wiki for things I did on one wiki. You can keep me blocked Terrible TV Shows Wiki if you want, but I want you and Duchess to unblock me on the wikis I did nothing wrong on. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 18:24, 3 January 2021 (UTC)


 * You have since been unblocked from those specific wikis. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 12:40, 6 January 2021 (UTC)
