Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Shenzhen future technology, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted by ClueBot.

• Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
• Cluebot produces very few false positives, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been detected as unconstructive, please report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
• The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Shenzhen future technology was changed by Purlot (u) (t) blanking the page on 2010-04-26T07:28:07+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot (talk) 07:28, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

That page isn't good. What's wrong? Purlot (talk) 07:28, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

I see that you have twice edited the article Shenzhen future technology, first blanking the page completely, and then replacing its contents with "This page needs to go. It's advertising." I completely agree, but removing the content and replacing with a note like that is not the way to get it deleted. Better is to add to the top of the article the tag {{db-spam}}, which will get the page flagged as a candidate for speedy deletion as advertising, or {{db-inc}}, which will flag it for speedy deletion as an article about a company or other organisation which is not shown to be significant. In either case you should then post a warning message to the talk page of the user who created the article. Simply blanking out content tends not to be helpful, as it is not clear to other users what the reason is, and just writing a note of your own in the article does not mark the article as belonging to the category "Candidates for speedy deletion".

Oh...I'm sorry sir. I'll try to be better. I just did the same thing sorry. Ill fix it. Purlot (talk) 07:40, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

That's OK, we all have to learn. If an article is tagged for deletion then sooner or later an administrator will see that it is in the category "Candidates for speedy deletion" and come along to see if they agree it should go. If it just has your own message on it then it is likely no administrator will know about it, so it will be left. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:28, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Moccasin. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Pinethicket (talk) 22:45, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

sir I was undoing a blank. i added the

because it was deleted. I think it shoulda been there. i'm sorry I accidentally changed it to hoe. Ill try harder to be good. Purlot (talk) 22:48, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi Purlot: The article did indeed need a reference link. In fact, I was repairing that plus some other mischief when your edit came up as an edit conflict; then I saw the shoe==>hoe edit and thought it was vandalism. Poor timing! A hint--use the edit summary to inform other editors what you are doing. Had you put in the edit summary: Del space; added ref list tag--I would have probably figured a typo had been made, and given you time to fix it. Thanks for your effort, and I hope to see you around.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Template:Uw-vandalism4. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Geniac (talk) 23:56, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi Geniac. At that page I changed it so that final warnings on vandalizers will be more convincing. If I was a vandalizer and I saw "If you vandalize Wikipedia again or display utter disrespect to our work of art, your heinous and atrocious acts will be repressed by way of a block", I would be really scared and I'd stop messing with Wikipedia. Don't you get my point? Thanks. Purlot (talk) 00:27, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

If you think your wording is better, you should discuss it at Wikipedia talk:Template messages/User talk namespace. --Geniac (talk) 00:37, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at User:DGG, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Becksguy (talk) 05:23, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Dreadstar ☥ 05:26, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
