<center>Try to be nice and...</center>
<center>Let's make a pact, you and me...don't make assumptions about ''me'' and I won't make assumptions about you. 
I try to think the best about others...so try to think the best about me, '''OK?!?'''</center>
<center>Assuming good reasons for our fellow Wikipedia editors' behavior should be the '''first''' thing we do BEFORE we reach for the keyboard... </center>
<center> Stating that "Our social policies are not a suicide pact" is not really a decent excuse for any Wikipedian's poor behavior.</center>
<center><big>'''And I really hate it when good editors feel they have to leave...I mean, I can understand retiring, but I miss so many people who aren't around any more for one reason or another.'''</big></center>
<center> Sometimes?...''sometimes'' I adopt '''really''' crappy orphan articles and when others come along and change and/or improve my efforts, 
I know I don't "own" the article and I don't edit war about it but it sometimes just breaks my heart.</center>
<center>True Confession: I am not a coder, I am not a computer-person. I do not understand Linux or Flow or liquid threads or almost any aspect of the technical side of Wikipedia...all I know Is that I love words. I love being part of this project. I love making knowledge accessible to people. So I taught myself by cutting & pasting the code from articles and from Wiki-gimmicks that I liked, from pestering people who knew their way around (''especially'' User:Chzz). The high I got from mastering the language and learning how to make things look right?... PRICELESS. </center>

"I am interested in the answer as well"

(I dared to write it after reading some encouraging words of your on this page; if the way I got them is wrong and not applicable to the case, I'm really sorry then)

Correct answer would been "no, they were not".

Now, as I writing here already: I need a consultation from the established veteran editor; if you're feel its inappropriate personally for you, maybe you're could advice somebody who could be willing to answer it instead?

Could an editor here get some lingering consequences for repeated false accusations against other user? I'm just not sure if its something that could be of matter for such a huge project, as it, obviously, relatively minor in comparison to more serious cases happening daily here. If you could answer, or redirect me to some actual person, who possess that knowledge, and would be actually willing to answer (places like "Teahouse" and "Help desk" due to their nature wouldn't be of use here, I think), would be appreciated. ~2026-28690-14 ↗ (talk) 17:09, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
:I am not sure what your question is. You seem to feel that you're being harassed or hounded? For something you did or did not do? Maybe you are, but maybe you aren't. Editors who have been around this project for a while, years even, are able to see repeated patterns of editing. Sometimes those patterns reveal problematic editing - sockpuppets or meatpuppets or aggressive POV/IDHT editors or disruptive trolls. And sometimes it's just a coincidence of common interests colliding with edits. If you are referring to {{u|Zero Contradictions}}, then what {{u|irisChronomia}} posted applies:
:*While users should not cast aspersions or accuse others, we can't prevent people from having suspicions nor can we force people to think in a particular way. If you find Zero's attitude towards you to be unpleasant, it is most appropriate for you to simply not interact with them.
:I am unable to answer your query any further than what I have written here. As to the "lingering consequences for repeated false accusations"?...I am unable to think of any particular editor for that subject. - Shearonink (talk) 18:03, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
::I would try to phrase it more clearly once more, if you still up to answer:
::Suppose there is some editor, who had redundantly repeated false accusations about somebody else. Could it lead to some lingering consequences for that user if some certain action had been took here via site structure?
::I think its rather simple question on its own, not sure how it related to any particular accounts at all? All I asked was about general information, not any particular case, otherwise I'd asked about that particular case. Its not about that someone is do think or not, why? If you see its not some question you're up to have an answer to, maybe you do know some more appropriate user to ask? If not for either cases, sorry for bother. ~2026-28690-14 ↗ (talk) 18:19, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
::::I will assume, Temp Account ~2026-28690-14, that you are asking about your own experience here, on Wikipedia, editing '''''only''''' as Temp Account ~2026-28690-14? If so, you are veering into WP:SPA ↗/WP:IDHT ↗/WP:DIS ↗ territory. As I previously posted on this page, my user talk page -> "'''I am unable to answer your query any further than what I have written here'''" . I suggest you move on from your current interest re:consequences for other editors having opinions about your editing or anyone else's editing. Any further posting about your interest in consequences, etc. on my talk page are not welcome. - Shearonink (talk) 23:06, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
:::::My apologies, all that unlucky bother happened because I mistook you for a qualified admin who are involved in investigations, so I thought it would be of use both to provide an answer to you, and also to ask one of my own (I literally got mixed on userpages, your indeed have no mention of being an admin, I got really lost on that step). Now I see how out of scope and place it was, really sorry for a bother accidentally caused. ~2026-28690-14 ↗ (talk) 00:00, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
:::No, people would rather spend time improving the encyclopedia. All talk pages are in principle solely dedicated to the improvement of ''the encyclopedia'', and comms straying away from this goal is not encouraged, while those that ''reduces'' productivity are actively discouraged. Spending time reading your walls of text is unproductive, so does replying to them.
:::If you're here to edit an encyclopedia, ''edit it''. Otherwise, try a different website. 海盐沙冰 / aka irisChronomia / Talk 19:18, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
:::btw, your edit history shows that you're WP:NOTHERE ↗ to build an encyclopedia. unless of course, that you have contributions using another account, in which you should provide the username. 海盐沙冰 / aka irisChronomia / Talk 19:21, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
