Ignore all rules[edit]
I'm surprised you support the existence of such an essay. It would cause havoc at Wikivoyage, and in fact similar sentiments that used to be part of Wikivoyage policy did cause havoc until we finally got rid of them and blocked R.Frank et al. So why is it good for it to be here? I'm just shocked anything with that title was ever here, let alone still is here, having been deleted and apparently recreated without an undeletion request. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:24, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek: I should start out by saying that the former global policy (it was one before m:Special:Diff/23831449) will still exist even if/when this essay is (re)deleted, but because that's way simpler to analyze: "[i]f a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining a project, ignore it". A disclaimer that I'll also be using "IAR" to denote "ignore all rules" to save some keystrokes.
- A few things to note here:
- "rule" exclusively refers to Wikimedia policies – it does not include anything in the Terms of use or any other legal implications.
- "improving or maintaining" means that the action should be a net positive to the project; general consensus should agree that whatever rule was broken was for the benefit of the project.
- Regarding Andre Carrotflower's use of this rule: it boils down to "improving or maintaining" – general consensus, as concluded on COM:ANU#User:Andre Carrotflower, was that those deletions were not net positives.
- Likewise with Frank and their socks, their actions were not net positives and consensus disagreed with their actions, therefore, misusing IAR (I wasn't active back then, but I believe they went against policy and did their own thing similar to what Veillg1 did?).
- To give an example of how IAR could be used in an appropriate way: voy:Presidents of the United States requires a discussion before any copyedit – there's a good reason behind this, but ignoring the rules to fix typos or adjust time formatting, is how this is supposed to be used. --SHB2000 (talk) 04:08, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- Frank et al. violated rules for years before finally being blocked, because the original view of Wikivoyage was that endless discussion was the right approach toward people who refused to follow consensus. Therefore, we deleted all language suggesting that it was OK to deviate from consensus on Wikivoyage. Making minor edits to that article is not a violation of a rule. Also, if there's a consensus that an action was positive, that is a consensus, which is the Wiki way. The danger is the license to take unilateral actions. But I don't feel like trying to argue more. I'll just reiterate that the title is shocking. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:51, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Ikan Kekek: I will say, though, that I would want the page (over here, on Meta, and on enwiki) to be renamed to something else – I just don't know what it should be renamed to. SHB2000 (talk) 08:01, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- But yeah, based on the description given, Frank + socks definitely didn't have a valid reasoning to use Ignore all rules regarding their actions. SHB2000 (talk) 08:17, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- They did have reasons, and their arguments had some support among admins. The problem was that bullheadedly insisting on their own way and arguing about it at length created a hostile work environment. I actually think the contents of IAR are OK now, but it should be renamed to something that does not put the idea of ignoring all rules into anyone's head. "Rules are not etched in stone" might be OK, but the more I think about it, "Be flexible" might be best. However, in spite of the fact that this essay was evidently restored without an undeletion requests thread, it seems like inertia is impenetrable here in regard to the existence and name of this essay. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:25, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- I would happily like to see the essay be renamed to Be flexible, FWIW. SHB2000 (talk) 08:28, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- Could you suggest that? I don't think anyone is willing to read my comments at Commons talk:Ignore all rules anymore. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:31, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
- Sure – I'll suggest it once I get back home in three hours. SHB2000 (talk) 08:33, 24 April 2023 (UTC)

Äntligen maj: Wiki Loves Earth 2023![edit]
Hej,
(For information in English, see Wiki Loves Earth 2023 in Sweden or other participating countries.)
Du får det här meddelandet eftersom du tidigare har bidragit med bilder till de svenska deltävlingarna av Wiki Loves Earth eller Wiki Loves Monuments. Jag hoppas att du vill vara med i år också! Som vanligt ingår naturreservat och nationalparker, biosfärområden och naturminnen i tävlingen! Nytt för i år är att vi utöver bästa foto även belönar fotograferande av tidigare ofotograferade objekt samt bästa bildserie om minst tio fotografier av samma objekt. Tävlingen börjar 1 maj, och pågår under hela maj månad. Om du har varit ute i världen och rest kan du även se om resorna sammanfaller med övriga internationella deltävlingar, och i så fall vara med och tävla även där. Expeditioner, fotosafari eller en helt vanlig promenad? Via en smidig karta som visar ditt närområde hittar du bra ställen att besöka – eller varför inte damma av fotoalbumen och tävla med bilder du har tagit tidigare?
Välkommen till tävlingen, och lycka till! /Axel Pettersson (WMSE) (talk) 12:46, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2022) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
In this second and final round, you may vote for a maximum of three images. The image with the most votes will become the Picture of the Year 2022.
Round 2 will end at 18 May 2023, 23:59:59 UTC.
