Legal changes edit
Hi @Slatersteven:,
I'm not sure about the most recent changes to legal. The WMF does get MLAT requests from actions taken in other courts, as well as some very high profile more general civil cases (e.g. the Swedish copyright case that went all the way to their supreme court). In the process of pithy, we shouldn't risk being inaccurate Nosebagbear (talk) 13:00, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
- OK.Slatersteven (talk) 13:02, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
- How about "Whilst Wikipedia will take notice of properly formed and correctly delivered legal notices posting legal threats in talk space will very rarely (If ever) achieve little more than making you look silly, and will result in you getting a ban. What it will not do is scare anyone."?Slatersteven (talk) 13:43, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
- (Notwithstanding a block/ban tweak) that's fairly reasonable. Perhaps something like "Whilst Wikipedia has a Foundation that will review genuine and serious legal notices; posting threats in talk page will very rarely (if ever) achieve little more than making you look silly, and will result in you getting a block. What it will not do is scare anyone. Ever." ? Nosebagbear (talk) 14:22, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

Humo(u)r edit
On a large social site, the mods had a motto "SN [that was us] can be funnier than any troll". Yesyes, very amusing, but we've seen that one (and you) before - Byee! as we clicked the suspend account button. Narky Blert (talk) 16:10, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
- Are you suggesting this as an addition?Slatersteven (talk) 16:17, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
