Happy editing! 🇺🇲JayCubby✡ please edit my user page! Talk 01:27, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, Hire power. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Sahaja Yoga, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

• avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
• propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
• disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
• avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
• do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 22:24, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

I don't have an external relationship with any of the people, places or things that I have written about. Also none of the edits could be described as promotion. There are a few mistakes including a spelling mistake, weasel words, incorrect conclusion not based on the source, and inaccurate wording which misrepresents the source.

You are WP:BLUDGEONING the RfC there. Please read WP:BLUDGEONING carefully. Bon courage (talk) 06:37, 19 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

You mentioned bludgeoning already on the [| talk page.] and I have desisted in commenting further to let the RFC process unfold by itself as you have also wisely done. Repeating the accusation here is unnecessary and could be seen as WP:HARRASSMENT.

However since you mentioned it, you made 11 comments in the discussion compared to my 8. As the opposing editor, you are WP:BLUDGEONING more than me. Hire power (talk) 02:40, 20 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bludgeoning is not measured by comment count. You started a RfC and then took issue with editors responding to it in a way you didn't want, "contradicting every viewpoint that is different from their own" as WP:BLUD describes. Good to see you've stopped! Bon courage (talk) 06:09, 20 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Hire power you are continuing to bludgeon the discussion. You should refrain from responding to every comment in an RfC, unless you have something new and pertinent to add in response. Rehashing the same thing over and over again is not helpful.

I can tell you feel strongly here so I feel there should be a little leniency, but I am strongly tempted to take this to WP:AN/I for bludgeoning, POV pushing and WP:CIR issues. Please take on board the advice given to you by other editors and allow the RfC process to play out. Otherwise, you are likely to quickly find yourself at one noticeboard or another.

You should not canvass specific editors you believe will support your position in the RfC, but you may wish to notify relevant WikiProjects of the RfC in order to encourage more responses. If you're not sure which WikiProjects to notify, you can find relevant projects in the banner at the very top of the article's talk page. Any such notifications to WikiProjects should be from a neutral POV. Adam Black ^{talk • contribs} 04:14, 22 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Apologies, I am unfamiliar with the process. I was expecting the voting to eventually turn to discussion. I see now there is a "Discussion" subheading so I have moved my last comment into that section. Hire power (talk) 06:49, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

How unfamiliar? Have you edited Wikipedia with other accounts? Bon courage (talk) 07:15, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Stop harrassing me and focus on content. I'm keeping a record of your actions and you are going to be reported. Hire power (talk) 13:37, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I am certain a simple question like that is not WP:HA; it's quite common to ask it for transparency purposes and to allow WP:SCRUTINY. You are aware of WP:SOCK? This is a policy all users should be familiar with. Bon courage (talk) 14:38, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I suspect this is the tip of a socking iceberg (to mix my metaphors) on this topic. Getting Freelion vibes I am. Bon courage (talk) 16:16, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Freelion is very stale, and I found no other technical connections when checking this account. If there's more complex behavioral evidence an SPI is the place for it. Vanamonde93 (talk) 19:15, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
