Template talk:Extended confirmed restriction

Word count

@SilverLocust Is it possible to add the following to the a-i switch?

"All participants are limited to 1,000 words per discussion (excluding citations and quotations)."

It'd certainly be more useful I think, for adding to discussions that is. CNC (talk) 18:42, 13 October 2025 (UTC)

Sure. You can add it. This isn't an "official" template. ~ Jenson (SilverLocust 💬) 18:50, 13 October 2025 (UTC)

 Done after significant delay. Only just seen your reply as had failed to subscribe to the topic I created. I was trying to find it the other day after the ARCA request and failed, have finally re-discovered. CNC (talk) 13:53, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

Edit request 7 June 2026 because I don't know if this, as a standalone edit by me, would violate WP:ARBECR

I think it would be more convenient to split the current "sa" code into "imh" and "sasg" which are two different topics that fall under arbitration enforcement. Also, would it make sense to add extra information about the word limits on the Arab-Israeli conflict topic (sourced from here)?

~2026-33716-82 (talk) 12:12, 7 June 2026 (UTC) why did I get kicked out of my previous TA?

What would happen to current usages of sa? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:11, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
