Note 1 about editing about cryptocurrencies in Wikipedia edit
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.Note 2 edit
Please be aware, if you are not, that holding a cryptocurrency or being part of its developer or advocacy community, constitutes a conflict of interest in Wikipedia. Please see below:
Hello, DogeTruths. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).
Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.
If you have any questions about how conflicts of interest are managed in Wikipedia, please ask! Jytdog (talk) 23:41, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
Notice of noticeboard discussion edit
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Jytdog (talk) 04:16, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
- Hello DogeTruths. I have commented on the above noted discussion, and you may wish to do the same. The concerns presented are two-fold. First, that you re-instated the edit you made on the Kraken when there are special restrictions on cryptocurrency-related articles, and the second is the concern that you may have a "conflict of interest" with relation to DogeCoin. In the case of the first, I have explained that you were following my instructions on the Kraken article. I should have been more careful about my instructions and I do sincerely apologize for my mistake. In the case of the second, if you do hold DogeCoin, or are part of any cryptocurrency advocacy group, you should declare that affiliation on your userpage. I hope this helps.

September 2018 edit
If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
{{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Alex Shih (talk) 06:58, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
