Atsme's Law, also referred to as The Law of Friendly and/or How to win friends and influence editors, first gained notability notoriety during a rather controversial miscellany for deletion discussion about politics, particularly anti- and pro-Trump decisions resulting from cases brought for arbitration enforcement. It is a spinoff of WP:DONTBITE but more targeted toward veteran editors and WP:AGF.

It was signed into law with the following response by Levivich :[2]
On December 4, 2020 another incident occurred that validates the science of Atsme's Law. JJPMaster posted the following template to User talk:Atsme:

Stop icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Although every user is expected to be civil, it seems that you are being too friendly. Please use Jimbo Wales' user page for any test "friendliness" you might have, and our guideline to when you have to be serious, even when sleeping. Thank you.
"
JJPMaster's summation was quickly challenged by Politrukki who stated:

Seems like a frivolous warning to me. No one can be too friendly.[4]
