Merge request

I figure someone should field this merge request: https://wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Talk:EULA_roofie#Merge_suggestion. Since there are no way to submit merge requests at the moment, I just put it in the talk page, but no one seems to have seen it. Louis seems to want an alternative for the "roofie" term too, so the time is probably ripe to decide whether the suggested merge is a good alternative term.

RE: I Will Not Use Discord block

Since I do not know who the other administrators are, I would like to discuss the block with you. However, you do not seem to have an email address listed to contact you with. And I still will not use an evil privacy-invasive service like Discord. Therefore, I am attempting to contact you about my block this way.

I believe my edits are totally legitimate and not nonsense. For example, my talk on the software as a service page is a reasonable discussion question on what terminology we want to use for our consumer rights activism.

Including the details that I was told to include-

[quote] You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason:

Your username or IP address has been blocked.

The block was made by ‪Kostas‬. The reason given is Inserting nonsense/gibberish into pages.

   Start of block: 19:45, 15 January 2025
   Expiration of block: 19:51, 15 February 2025
   Intended blockee: ‪I Will Not Use Discord‬

You can contact ‪Kostas‬ or another administrator to discuss the block. You can use the "Email this user" feature if a valid email address is specified in your preferences and you have not been blocked from using it. Your current IP address is [redacted] Please include all above details in any queries you make. [/quote]

           Hello, what would you like to discuss ? 
           Just saw your assertion on the legitimacy of the edits. Were the edits on the pages of non existant users also legitimate? Kostas

The users do exist. They were not made up by me. For example, NathanRiley is an existing user.

         Apologies, you are right. I might have been too trigger happy because of other issues with vandalism. Let me discuss with the other mods.

         Hello again, sorry for the delay. I see that you have made an alt account here [User:I Still Will Not Use Discord]. This is not encouraged barring extreme cirmustances. I apologize for going directly to blocking  but reaching out was the right call. Circumventing the block will lead to banning.
        Since in this case I was also at fault for not reaching out if you delete the alt account I will lift the block on your original account. 
        However, please try to keep edits civil and constructive. I realize these were made in Talk pages but we would like to have interaction on this page be about the wiki itself.

I do not see a way to delete my account. Duckduckgo suggests that I cannot without some sort of mediawiki extension? I cannot link the source due to anti-spam policy.

       I was unaware of this, will look into it. You will be able to use your original account normally in 2 hours. 
       I will put an indefinite block on the alt tommorow.
       I respect your not wanting to use discord but focus on wiki topics when using the talk pages.
