August 2015 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:12, 21 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

September 2015 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Scissor Sisters. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 03:13, 28 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Patrick Monahan, you may be blocked from editing. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 23:21, 28 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for September 23 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1999 in Australian television, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Thunderstone. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 17:11, 24 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

November 2015 edit

  Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Another Gay Movie, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 20:42, 24 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Justice Crew, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Lightsout (talk) 21:42, 24 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

December 2015 edit

  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living (or recently deceased) persons, as you did to Vic Mignogna. Especially concerning his birthdate. See WP:BLPPRIVACY AngusWOOF (barksniff) 22:48, 29 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

How about you find a source for it yourself.

WP:BURDEN.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 22:23, 30 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

  If you continue to add unsourced personal information or unsupported ethnic and descent categories to biography articles, you will be blocked from editing. Many editors have left you messages explaining why your edits are contrary to policy and have been reverted, yet you have completely disregarded their messages. You need to include reliable sources when adding such material.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 22:20, 30 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

January 2016 edit

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at 2014, you may be blocked from editing. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 09:28, 26 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

March 2016 edit

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning' the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Rory Cochrane. You have received multiple prior warnings for edits to biographical articles, yet here you added a category to an article that clearly is unsupported by the text at this time. This is a violation of WP:BLPCAT, which you were linked to earlier. Please stop adding unsourced or unsupported information immediately. DonIago (talk) 16:40, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for contravening Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy. 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 first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 18:22, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Continued poor sourcing edit

I've reverted your edits at Christopher Poole as you added a birth date without including a reliable source. If you don't understand what a reliable source is, please don't continue to edit BLP articles. You have a history of BLP violations and may be subject to additional sanctions if the issues continue.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 20:02, 12 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

June 2016 edit

  Before adding a category to an article, as you did to Alex Hirsch, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. Categories must also be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you. nyuszika7h (talk) 22:20, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to List of best-selling music artists, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. —IB [ Poke ] 08:55, 20 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Final warning edit

You just posted to my talk page apologizing for adding unsourced personal info to articles, yet you're still doing it. This is absolutely your last warning; if it continues you will be blocked.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 22:38, 20 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I pesonally feel that I've been wrongfully blocked because I believe I was just being helpful. What I did wasn't vandalism or disruptive editing on my part as I just like to add people, places or anything having to do with the culture and heritage of a particular place to help enrich the culture and prevent erasure especially with regards to African-American culture and history such as Fletcher Street Urban Riding Club and Bessie Stringfield. I also did this to highlight where their roots lie especially national icons because they may be national icons but they have nuances regarding the environment they were raised in so it's justified. Users have included culture related pages without consequence such as Prince for Culture of Minneapolis, Whitney Houston for Culture of Newark, New Jersey, Aziz Ansari for Tamil-American culture, South Park for Colorado culture and Gravity Falls for Oregon culture. Some users have accepted my edits such as that of Bill Murray and Dan Savage. Even edits to pages where I didn't add a culture or history related category have been reverted such as the Kiwiana page where I added Kozmik to the fashion section. I feel like I've became gaslighted and that it skewed my view on right and wrong. I thought I was doing the right thing yet some fellow Wikipedia users just love to complicate things. I've became quite bitter ever since. I'm sure some Wikipedia users as well as people from the areas where I added culture or history related categories will oppose my block.Edunk5 (talk) 23:44, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

A mess made out of a desire to be helpful is still a mess. Adding categories must be supported, and if controversial, a consensus obtained first before you begin adding them to dozens of articles. If an artist has a "nuance regarding the environment they were raised in" you need a reliable source to support that claim. As this request seems to be attempting to justify your edits, and not explain how they were disruptive, there are no grounds to remove the block. 331dot (talk) 06:50, 25 September 2022 (UTC)Reply


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.
