edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. Please remember to observe this important core policy. Thank you. Favonian (talk) 10:46, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Juano Hernández, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Favonian (talk) 11:09, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

  This is the final warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Paul Robeson, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Aleksa Lukic (talk) 11:11, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

|unblock|New to this; Did not see warnings

My account has been blocked by Teresa Knott, due to vandalism. Being new to this, I did not see any pre-blocking warnings, or even know where to look for them; I re-posted my edits when they were changed, thinking it the work of the zealous original authors.

My reason for the biased editing is this: I read the politically correct leftist slant of the original texts of the Paul Robeson & Juano Hernandez pages (a hagiography to Robeson in the former; a blatant general smearing of white people in the latter) - so as a neutrality test, I edited them with my own obvious slant in the other direction.

Result: The original versions got put back up - and I got my account blocked.

I will concede that you are a new editor; it is also true that you did receive warnings on your talk-page, and you cannot have failed to see the orange bar which appears on your page when a message is sent to you. This post will have caused one. I will contact the blocking admin, and put your case to her. --Anthony.bradbury"talk" 16:53, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

To be honest I find it virtually impossible to believe that he failed to see the warnings. However in the spirit of not biting the newbies I have undone the block. LordofGifts do not deliberately insert bias into our articles ever again. It's stupid and will lead to another block very quickly. Theresa Knott | Hasten to trek 18:36, 23 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
