Blocking for useless edits

Bearbeiten

@Gerbil: hello! I created a redirect from an emoji, but made an error in the target article title, because of unusual to me German capitalization. The emoji is called "Love hotel" and there is an article Love Hotel on the topic. Moreover, there is a lot of similar redirects, see here. What is wrong and why did you blocked me?

"AfD-closer"

Bearbeiten

Hello Wikisaurus,

Just one question, if I may: What on earth is an "AfD-closer"? AfD?? --217.239.4.223 23:55, 12. Feb. 2022 (CET)Beantworten

Oh my God! No, it is en:WP:AfD... --Wikisaurus (Diskussion) 23:56, 12. Feb. 2022 (CET)Beantworten
Thanks for explaining! I personally wouldn't mind seeing the AfD being closed too, but that's a different matter.
You might want to keep that in mind if you have your meta user page tied into your German WP user page. German readers will definitely associate that party with this abbreviation and, in the best case, not know what to make of that description of yourself. Don't expect even those with a good knowledge of English to be familiar with English WP abbreviations. --217.239.4.223 00:07, 13. Feb. 2022 (CET)Beantworten
