There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.--Samsara 09:37, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've de-PRODded Mezzo since there is a clear case for notability in the article: I would normally recommend that you put together an AfD at this point, but I think you have been too busy with these at the moment. Merging to Symphony OS could be an option. — Charles Stewart (talk) 08:17, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on 2019 United Kingdom general election. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.  M2Ys4U ^(talk) 01:57, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to say you have personally lessened Wikipedia for me. I came here today for more information on Symphony OS and find you've worked to remove that information. Searching further I find you've whacked Mezzo (desktop environment) also, months later. These were mentioned as revolutionary developments illustrating alternative thinking in GUI design. But without value to you.

If the value of information depends solely on conformance to narrow rules as interpreted by few people then we'll have quantum Wikipedia, with particles winking in and out of existence, depending on who is looking at them. You are not improving Wikipedia, appeals to legalism not-withstanding. Shenme (talk) 21:09, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You're most welcome. These weren't revolutionary and they weren't notable which is why a consensus of Wikipedia editors agreed with me.

If you can find other independent sources that give you this information, and that confirm why these things are notable (as opposed to being dead FOSS projects of little import that nobody used) then maybe you can recreate the article with sources that confirm that.
