:''*Sigh*'' I know I was the one that suggested this idea, but I was really hoping that we wouldn't have to resort to actually doing it. I think that, as a whole, we try to be accommodating to users who are new and inexperienced, users who may not be totally fluent in English, and users who don't fully understand the way our wiki works. We offer help and guidance for those who are willing to put the effort into improving their edits. The big problem with Drakono isn't that his edits are often/usually of poor quality, but the fact that ''he's aware of it, persists in making them anyways, and seems resistant to improvement.'' There can be quite a lot of leeway given to well-intentioned users who just don't "get it" at first, but we have given Drakono '''a lot''' of leeway and he still is either unwilling or unable to meet the general standards that we'd expect long-time editors to meet. I really dislike that we have to resort to imposing an edit restriction in order to address this problem; I feel that this may have the unintended effect of pushing Drakono off the project, which is something I would like to avoid if at all possible. But, I think there's a limit to how much screwing-up we can tolerate before we say "enough." So, all that said, I must reluctantly '''support''' the imposition of editing restrictions. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 01:48, July 31, 2019 (UTC)
::I haven't had much time to weigh in on things recently, since I've been busy with some of my personal projects recently. But I've obviously seen the topic brought up in ''#administrative_chat'' and therefore I knew that an editing restriction proposal was on the way.
 
::I personally would agree that placing an editing restriction on Drakono would be the best way to go, to see if it has any effect on their behaviour. If not, then we can take any appropriate actions from there.
 
::In case my response is lacking in sufficient detail, it's because I don't have any issues with the current proposal, and therefore I haven't really got anything new to add. ― <span style="font:bold 108% 'Constantia';">[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="#800020">C.Syde</font>]]</span> <span style="font: 108% 'Adobe Garamond Pro';">([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]])</span> 02:04, July 31, 2019 (UTC)
