Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the one you made to Filipino people. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

You are welcome to continue editing without logging in, but you may want to consider creating an account. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see this page. If you edit without a username, your IP address (86.174.240.211) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}} before the question on this page. Again, welcome!

You are Being Warned

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

Your recent edits

edit

  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (  or  ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 19:24, 14 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

edit

  Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:86.174.240.211 reported by User:G S Palmer (Result: ). Thank you. G S Palmer (talk) 19:37, 14 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

 
Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule, as done at Filipino people. If you have a registered Wikipedia username, you may log in and continue to edit. Otherwise, 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 the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Atama 21:08, 14 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

In addition to this block for edit-warring, please note that this comment is clearly a personal attack (a derogatory remark against a racial/ethnic group) and this comment falsely accuses someone of vandalism (which is another personal attack) and also makes a clearly bogus claim. (If you were really working for a Spanish embassy in the Philippines, you wouldn't be using an IP address from the United Kingdom.) Cut these kinds of comments out, or you will be blocked for a much longer period than 24 hours. -- Atama 16:23, 15 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

 
Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of one week for attempting to harass other users.

Due to the misuse of unblock templates to harass people, I've extended this block to a month and revoked talk page access for the duration. -- Atama 15:24, 23 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

  This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on other people again, as you did at User talk:PacificWarrior101, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. —/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 05:11, 19 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
