edit
Hello, I'm Materialscientist. An edit you recently made to Video sculpture seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 21:54, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Video sculpture. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Amortias (T)(C) 22:32, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
Longhart, you are invited to the Teahouse!

This is the only warning you will receive about ownership of articles, which you showed at Amanda Long. The next time you continue to disruptively edit Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Murph9000 (talk) 03:24, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Request reason:
Hi, I felt threatened by the last people who edited my page as they didn't add any content rather they took parts away and made it an Orphan. Destruction is not the point of Wiki, creation of content is. There are too many bullies and not enough helpers here. I want to be able to create my page. I will respect the people who recently edited my page if I am respected. Otherwise, as a female I will make sure to talk with WikiMedia tomorrow about this issue as this quite serious to me and I imagine Katherine Maher would rather have people like me contribute than not as otherwise wiki is not inclusive as it intends to be. Most of my contributions have been changed and knocked down. If this is how Wiki culture is then you not making our world more aware of facts or kinder.

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.
- Admin, please note that the above appears to be acknowledgement that the Amanda Long page is an autobiography, and the editor's apparent ownership mentality is exactly why the policy against autobiography exists. General Ization Talk 04:01, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)It is not "your page". Please see WP:OWN. Furthermore, you really shouldn't edit an article about yourself, see our conflict of interest policy. Until such time as your legal threats are retracted - or settled in court, you will remain blocked here, as detailed in our policy on legal threats. SQLQuery me! 04:06, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Request reason:
I retract my legal threats. I want to be able to edit the page about me. It is important and I don't know why you are wasting your time on me. Wiki needs to have a professional on their staff resolve these issues. I don't know who you are or have your email and you have emailed me several times and it is upsetting me. Someone with more tact and politeness needs to be involved in these issues. I am not sure who you are or if you or if you are a safe person. Please remove the block. I have retracted my legal claims.

Request reason:
Instead of blocking my page and destroying it can you help make it better? Why are you behaving like this? Wiki is giving people power complexes. It is not healthy and I feel threatened. I am very concerned at how strange this online culture of Wiki is. Boing! said Zebedee you targeted me and I am very confused as to why. Was it my edits on Roger Ailes page? I noticed you reverted my edits, they were cited. What was the issue. Are you removing the facts?

- Ms. Long, with all due respect, this issue has arisen because you have not taken the time to read about and understand Wikipedia culture and, more importantly, policies, before undertaking to create an autobiography here. As previously explained, autobiography is strongly discouraged for the very reason that their authors tend to feel that others should not be able to contribute to the articles they have written about themselves. Further, the editors against whom you issued threats only made improvements to the article. See [1], [2], [3], [4]. General Ization Talk 04:28, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
- By the way, the {{orphan}} tag (added in the last edit I linked above) means that other editors are encouraged to identify and create potential wikilinks to a given article; no one can "make" an article into an orphan by adding to or removing content from the article itself. It is a way of improving the visibility and utility of an article in the encyclopedia. General Ization Talk 04:37, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Again I have a right to use Wiki now as I have retracted my legal claims. If you continue this treatment of me which is upsetting I will speak with wiki and report you for this excessive punishment. I wish you have better things to do on wiki besides be rude to me.

Also I don't care about Amanda Long's page I am going to delete it as soon as I can as being a part of wiki is clearly not a positive experience. Wiki a waste and run by bullies.

- Please read the policy on article ownership, which has been linked here several times. It is not your page to delete (and you can't delete it anyway). The page is the property of the Wikipedia community, not the person who created the page, or the person who is the subject of the page. The article will either qualify for inclusion in Wikipedia and be kept, or fail to qualify and be deleted. The most likely criteria used for that purpose will be WP:NARTIST. The issue of eligibility has already been raised, but it has not yet been formally nominated for deletion. Murph9000 (talk) 04:55, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Request reason:
Murph9000 If you contact me again or anyone who has already mansplained how wiki works you will be reported and blocked. All of your work will be deleted and you will be prosecuted. I do have legal rights and I do plan on making sure people like you are not given unfair power on the internet. You wasted your energy on being destructive tonight. After all who are you to judge if I am notable artist? DO you have any education in art? I do qualify for this and you would know that if you have any knowledge of this field. "The person's work (or works) either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums." Only because Wiki is history written by men I'll be left out. This is hurting me. If this is not resolved in the morning I will pursue all actions legally possible as this is not fair.

- Did you actually use the word mansplain unironically? I didn't even know that was possible. EEng 05:44, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Follow-up
editHi. My name is GoldenRing and I'm an admin on the English Wikipedia. Reviewing the series of messages and templates above, it looks like you have had a pretty rough introduction to us and nobody has really taken the time to introduce you to our encyclopaedia properly.
Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. It is an encyclopaedia. It's one which anyone can edit, but that doesn't mean anyone can add anything they like. Firstly, for a subject to have a page, it has to be notable. While there are various subject-specific guidelines for establishing notability, it all boils down to the same thing: subjects must have significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject to be considered notable and therefore have an article on Wikipedia.
Information presented on Wikipedia must be presented neutrally. That doesn't mean that everyone who edits an article must be neutral about it in themselves - everyone has biases, whether they realise it or not - but it means they have to distance themselves from their biases and write neutrally, accepting input from other editors with other biases. Experience shows that some situations make it extremely difficult for editors to put this distance between themselves and the article to enable them to write neutrally. In these situations, we strongly discourage them from editing the article at all. It is not absolutely forbidden, but it is restricted to some fairly specific circumstances and there are extra rules about doing it. That is why we have policies about editing by people who are paid to do so, editing by people with a conflict of interest and people editing articles about themselves. The last appears to apply particularly to you, and if you read that policy you will find that you are very strongly discouraged from editing the article yourself, unless it is to correct the most obvious of vandalism or the most egregious of false information.
Information presented on Wikipedia must also be backed up by reliable, published sources. While not all reliable sources need to be independent of the article subject, they do need to be objectively reliable for the information in the article which they back up.
And, lastly, wikipedia operates by consensus. That means one person can't come in and dictate what goes into an article; if someone disagrees with them about what should or shouldn't go in an article, it needs to be discussed and an agreement reached. It is because this consensus process is so important to us that making legal threats is taken particularly seriously. Legal threats are seen as a way of circumventing the process of consensus and forcing your own way. You are of course entirely entitled to begin legal proceedings; we only ask that you choose between building consensus regarding an article here or taking legal action elsewhere. Being involved in legal action, or making the threat of legal action, is incompatible with neutrally building an article through consensus and so we do not allow people to edit here who have made legal threats.
It is absolutely possible for you to regain your editing privileges here. To do so, you will need to:
- Convince someone that you have understood what I've written above and how your actions here have led to your being blocked from editing.
- Explain how you intend to act differently in the future to avoid being reblocked.
- Explain what and how you intend to contribute to the encyclopaedia - what types of articles you are interested in editing, what sort of sources you have access to and so on.
Since you are blocked from editing, you can't do this in the normal way by posting an unblock request here. Instead you can either:
- File a ticket with the unblock ticket request system,
- Send an email to an administrator - for instance, go to User:GoldenRing and click the 'Email this user' link, or
- Send an email to the arbitration committee. This last should probably be a last resort.
I wish you good luck. GoldenRing (talk) 09:56, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
- Apologies, I've just noticed that your email access has also been revoked, which makes the UTRS your only remaining avenue for getting unblocked. GoldenRing (talk) 10:04, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
Nomination of Amanda Long for deletion
edit
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Amanda Long is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Amanda Long until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. EEng 02:57, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
The file File:Amanda Long, self portrait.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
orphaned file, no foreseeable use
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
