Welcome edit
Welcome to editing Wikipedia. I have seen a few of the edits you have made, and although they are mainly changes of small details, they all seem to be helpful and constructive. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 11:44, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
September 2017 edit
Hello. Your recent edit to List of bitcoin companies appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person or organization added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Blockweather Holdings, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. reddogsix (talk) 04:24, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Blockweather.png edit
A tag has been placed on File:Blockweather.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. reddogsix (talk) 04:29, 30 September 2017 (UTC)

Please stop continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Blockweather Holdings, without resolving the problem that the template refers to. This may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. reddogsix (talk) 04:32, 30 September 2017 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:BlockweatherHoldings.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from This is not a low-resolution copy. Copyrighted https://www.blockweather.com/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

Speedy deletion nomination of Blockweather Holdings edit
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Blockweather Holdings requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

September 2017 edit
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at User talk:Reddogsix. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. reddogsix (talk) 13:44, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
Blockweather Holdings edit
@Digitalcurrency - You seem to be under the impression that I deleted your article. You are incorrect in this assumption. I only nominated it for deletion. The deletion was performed by an admin that reviewed the nomination and based on the lack notability felt the nomination was valid. reddogsix (talk) 13:52, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
Removal of your ANI report edit
I've removed your attempt to file an ANI report because it was a wall of copy-and-pasted deletion logs and edit summaries that was nearly impossible to read.
Speaking as an admin, I'll also say this: I do see any reason for administrative action to be taken against Reddogsix for nominating/tagging articles for deletion. If the articles are so flawed that speedy deletion is justified, then Reddogsix is helping the project by tagging them! Further, the articles were reviewed by independent administrators before being deleted, so he's not acting unilaterally. —C.Fred (talk) 13:55, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
A community decision has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to the blockchain and cryptocurrencies. The details of these sanctions are described here. All pages that are broadly related to these topics are subject to a one revert per twenty-four hours restriction, as described here.
General sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. It is only effective if it is logged here. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.MER-C 11:30, 5 June 2018 (UTC)
Editing edit
Hello Digitalcurrency. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Blockweather Holdings, and that you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to Black hat SEO.
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Digitalcurrency. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Digitalcurrency|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. jcc (tea and biscuits) 11:38, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
Response: The article "Blockweather Holdings" was the first that I have created for Wikipedia, so I am still learning all of these rules.
I am not paid by Blockweather to create or edit Wikipedia articles, including the Blockweather Holdings article. I receive no compensation whether or not the article is created or deleted. I have received compensation from Blockweather for work done unrelated to Wikipedia or any Wikipedia articles.
Regarding the "Blockweather Holdings" article, it is intended to be 100% unbiased and to just provide information, as any Wikipedia page would. The page can be edited as needed. I do still strongly believe that Blockweather has more notability than many other companies with Wikipedia pages and more relevance to more people than numerous pages. For example, Blockweather has more notability and relevance than a single high school, or a defunct company from 2013-2015 without particular notability.
I am new to writing and editing for Wikipedia, so please advise.--Digitalcurrency (talk) 13:53, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
Addendum: Wikipedia is an Internet site. It seems that a major criterion in determining whether bandwidth should be used to host an article should be the number of people who would search for, be interested in, and benefit from the information in that article. For an article about a high school, maybe 2000 people would be interested. For Blockweather, millions of people are interested.--Digitalcurrency (talk) 14:06, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
