Block notice edit

 
You have been blocked temporarily from editing for continued removal of material. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Orangemike had gone in and vandalized the page several times. Had blocked me. I have just been adding accurate information and contributing. I have done nothing wrong in editing. I would like to be unblocked and prevent from others to edit with inaccurate information. Thank you.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information.

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I have restored the block notice and the previous request and decline. These must remain in place while the block is in effect. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 21:15, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

The block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia. I was adding only factual information in the bio section and links. I understand what I have been blocked for was the mistakes of re-editing someone elses info and will not continue disruption but only make useful contributions. The information provided is factual and for the benefit and contribution to the page and to wikipedia. Thank you. Gkatt (talk) 21:33, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

No, in fact, that's not at all what you were doing. You were adding a bunch of links that don't meet our guidelines for reliable sources, and thus can't be used to support claims in the article. You removed maintenance templates without fixing the underlying problem. And you attempt to "stop" the deletion process by removing the deletion template (even though that doesn't in any way stop the discussion). At this point I think you need to take some time to read Wikipedia's policies. Of most importance to you right now are probably WP:RS, WP:BLP, WP:N, and WP:CREATIVE. Note that the last of these is the notability guide for creative professionals like Katt; if it cannot be established that he meets these criteria, then the article will be deleted. Simply verifying his existence (as you asserted on the article's talk page) is not enough--the person must be notable. Once your block is up (a couple more days), then you can go back to the article's talk page and suggest sources. You can also comment in the deletion discussion. What you cannot do is try to stop the deletion discussion, or remove those templates without fixing the problem, or link to places like blogs or youtube. Furthermore, your username makes me believe that either you are George Katt or are working directly for him. We call this a conflict of interest, and, per WP:COI, strongly recommend that you don't edit the article directly; it's simply too difficult for most people to follow our neutrality and sourcing policies on subjects they are closely connected to.

If you attempt to remove the unblock requests again before your block expires, I will remove your ability to edit this talk page. After the block is over, you are allowed to remove them. Qwyrxian (talk) 23:01, 6 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
