Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

  • Respect intellectual property rights - do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
  • Maintain a neutral point of view when editing articles - this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
  • Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Blocked

You have been blocked for a period of 24 hours for edit warring and disruption at Maddox (writer). You may resume constructive editing after the block expires but any continuation of the edit war will immediately result in a longer block without further warning.

Request reason:

I have never edited the Maddox (writer) article. [1]

Decline reason:

I think he meant the talk page, in which case edits like this are sufficient to justify the block. -Daniel Case (talk) 04:47, 29 February 2008 (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.

Request reason:

I've made two comments on the talk page a week ago, which weren't edit warring in any form.

Decline reason:

Regardless of the merits of Kafziel's original block, you are now indefinitely blocked for having an inappropriate username. Please get another one and contribute constructively when you return. ~ Riana 12:41, 29 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
