Can you do please something about macgovern abusing his power?

Summary by Aemony

Every time something is brought to MacGovern's attention that they are unsure of or challenged on, they consult the rest of the staff before taking any further actions.

They continue to provide constructive and beneficial contributions according to our expectations on senior editors, and have PCGW's continued support.

With all respect but that person seems to make really nonsense decisions. He or she reverts even simple, helpful infos, that can lift the page's popularity as a general guide. I observed that behavior also on other occasions in other talks, where he or she simply presses through his or her delegated power as a senior moderator. Please reconsider degrading that person seriously. This is terrible also in terms how MacGovern communicates here. Also there is a lack of knowledge it seems in terms of technical topics, which also are a factor for that person's controversial decisions. Edit: typos

The content toggle is displayed on one of the setting screenshots already, and a concerned user may easily find it this way. To also give it a dedicated fixbox is redundant.

Read my response to this, that i already gave obstinate macgovern.:

"A screenshot has quite some drawbacks, when people are searching for this specific information. Because the needed info can not be crawled by popular web search engines on this wiki. Only words can be properly found and indexed by search engines. So i put a simple two liner info about this topic under the section "other information".

Macgovern just closed the topic with a nonsense statement, that totally misses the point. I quote.: "Content warnings are outside the scope of PCGamingWiki."

Jigen123 (talkcontribs)

But content warnings really ARE outside the scope of the wiki. Macgovern's decision to remove your edit has already been discussed among the staff. Removing that part of the article is not a controversial decision at all.

Fa.ma (talkcontribs)

This is not even a content warning as i already mentioned above. See my explanation.

Aemony (talkcontribs)

Hi,

User:Macgovern frequently discusses or raises topics with other staff members on our Discord if something pops up, and while their initial response to situations may not always reflect the final outcome, they still learn and improve for future situations. The wiki is a collaborative effort, with the editing guide and wiki policies underlying the core of it, and they are quite well informed and acts according to this.

As for your nudity content warning for Alan Wake II, as both User:Mcgovern and User:Jigen123 told you, it is outside of the scope of PCGamingWiki. We don't track or otherwise detail nudity content or such toggles, and the already provided settings screenshot is enough.

So as it stands we do not regard their actions as abusing their power. They are entrusted to assist in guiding users and contributors according to the Editing guide and wiki policies and continues to do so with productive results.

Br,

Aemony

You are totally missing the point. This is not about a content warning.

It very much is about the content warning as it is the only thing you mentioned in the first post.

It should not have been there in the first place, as it is not the job of PCGamingWiki.

Whether there's nudity or not in the game, anyone wishing to stream/record gameplay including the footage mentioned would've made due diligence researching this beforehand, such as looking at the game's ESRB or PEGI ratings (which clearly indicate nudity is present).

Macgovern is very much not abusing his power. Please stop accusing others of behaviour that is not happening.

Fa.ma (talkcontribs)

No, why should i be silent about this? Why are you trying to suppress legit critique?

Fa.ma (talkcontribs)

Of course other moderators are jumping to Macgovern's side, without even doing proper research about that person. But this is not your business or for you to decide. There is a reason why there is often the option in life to walk around all sub bosses and to bring up legit concerns to the boss directly. I presented the facts, which can not be denied.

SargeCassidy (talkcontribs)

The "facts" you have presented support Macgovern.

Aemony (talkcontribs)

Hi,

I have stepped in here and banned you for continued arguing with our actual moderators (SargeCassidy) and myself (pretty much the head honcho on PCGW since Andy is very hands off with the site since a while back).

My previous reply, no matter what you may think, was written after an in-depth review of the claim as well as MacGovern's historical behavior, their occasional mistake, as well as willingness to learn and improve.

Every time something is brought to their attention that they are unsure of or challenged on, they consult the rest of the staff before taking any further actions.

It is in this context that your claims doesn't find an audience with other staff members -- your claims simply don't line up with reality.

I hereby consider this matter closed.

Br,

Exactly what the title says, it says incorrect password everytime i try to log in, So far i've tried

  • Resetting my Password (Twice!)
  • Logging out of the wiki, then trying to log into the forums
  • Clearing my Cookies
  • Using a different browser (FireFox, Normally i use Google Chrome.)
  • Entering my old passwords

I was going to log into the forums to request a copy of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.

Publicly release page views each day

Nicereddy (talkcontribs)

A few days ago you posted this tweet. I was wondering if there was any way you could make that information publicly available on a page on this wiki so we know which articles are getting the most attention and we can be efficient in the amount of time we spend editing articles.

Thanks, nicereddy
