Arbitration w.r.t. Taiwan talk page edits
User talk:Jargo Nautilus/Archive 1 | Archive 2
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Taiwan/Archive_index
I am a citizen of the Republic of Jargonistan. Located east of Ukraine, north of Kazakhstan, west of Alaska, and south of Santa Claus.
This "invoke random" command is really cool.

- Севастополь (Russian)
- Акъя́р / Aqyar (Crimean Tatar)
Status
Currently, I am banned from editing articles related to "Conflict in Eastern Europe" (which includes the former Soviet Union). I also cannot directly discuss anything relating to these topics, at least with regards to content within specific articles.
This does not mean that I am retiring from Wikipedia, as there are still other less-contentious areas that I'm interested in, such as music and biology.
I am also not retiring from the contentious topics outside of Wikipedia, and I will continue to stay informed about them in my own time away from the website. This too shall pass. – JN, January 26, 2023. (ironically, I was banned by a fellow Australian on Australia Day... ha!)
