Please do not add advertising or inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that exist to attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam policies for further explanations of links that are considered appropriate. If you feel the link should be added to the article, then please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. See the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.

I've undone your recent edit to turquoise. Please don't remove reliable sources and replace them with commercial links. Vsmith (talk) 02:46, 3 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

thanks.--Alpha Beta Gaga (talk) 12:47, 3 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

You're welcome. However, the website you added just now is a tourism promotion site and not an WP:RS, further the site does not say turquoise is from Central Asia - rather from Persia, and that fact is already well sourced. Vsmith (talk) 12:58, 3 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for attempting to harass other users. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Sandstein  07:32, 8 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

The above block is in reaction to this message by you, which violates abot every rule of conduct not only on Wikipedia (see WP:NPA, WP:CIVIL, WP:BATTLE, WP:EQ) but also of polite society altogether. It is unacceptable to misuse Wikipedia as a forum in which to pursue real-world conflicts or grievances.  Sandstein  07:35, 8 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

  The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose, at their own discretion, sanctions on any editor working on pages broadly related to Armenia-Azerbaijan and related conflicts if the editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban. The committee's full decision can be read at Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2#Final decision.  Sandstein  07:35, 8 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for personal attacks and harrassment as explained here. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=I never attacked personal rights, i never made contribution about Armenian articles. Sari Gelin is still belong to Turkish folk, it has Turkish lyrics, the song is about Turkish bride. (or at least a bride who spoke Turkish.) Kansas Bear had glorified terrorist organisations. If i took a ban, what would you do about Kansas Bear case? Look at Sandstein's talk page for more information.}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Sandstein  21:05, 22 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

As explained here, as an arbitration enforcement action, per WP:ARBAA2#Amended Remedies and Enforcement, you are topic-banned (see WP:TBAN) from everything to do with Armenia and Armenians for the duration of six months. In addition, as a normal administrator action, you are indefinitely blocked for your incredibly severe personal attacks against Kansas Bear (talk · contribs). Any administrator may unblock you, in response to an unblock request (see WP:GAB), if they are convinced that you understand what you did wrong and that you will not do it again.  Sandstein  21:07, 22 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Your unblock request above does not work because you wrote it into my message. I've copied it out for you below so that it appears correctly. In addition I have blocked your apparent additional account Cupcaker (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log).  Sandstein  06:26, 24 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
 
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:

I never attacked personal rights, i never made contribution about Armenian articles. Sari Gelin is still belong to Turkish folk, it has Turkish lyrics, the song is about Turkish bride. (or at least a bride who spoke Turkish.) Kansas Bear had glorified terrorist organisations. If i took a ban, what would you do about Kansas Bear case? Look at Sandstein's talk page for more information.

Decline reason:

People who use Wikipedia to fight racial or national battles are one of the biggest disruptions to the project. Your unblock does not give me any confidence that, if unblocked, you would avoid bringing nationalist conflicts into your editing on Wikipedia.

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.
