Homework questions

Hi there. Please note that one of your questions on the reference desk, now located in the archives at Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Archives/Science/2008 February 6#NEWTONS LAW 1 AND 2 QUESTIONS FROM THE PHYSICS MAGAZINE GUY, was identified as a direct copy from a set of homework questions. This is after being warned that your questions sounded like homework, and told that it was inappropriate to try to get the Reference desk volunteers to do your homework for you. In the future, if you have trouble with your homework, please try to take the following points into consideration:

1. Say that it's a homework question. Nobody likes a liar and homework is usually pretty easy to spot.
2. Provide details of how far you've gotten into the question yourself, and where you're having problems.
3. Ask, not for the solution, but for advice on how to proceed. In conjunction with the previous point, this will let people confidently give you the advice you need to solve the problem yourself.
4. Please try to format your questions in a more readable manner. Text that is ALL IN CAPITAL LETTERS is hard to read, and on the internet is considered the equivalent of shouting. ALTERNATING between CAPITALS and LOWER CASE is probably even worse. Also, large amounts of text work best when separated into paragraphs. Leave a blank line between paragraphs, because the MediaWiki software may still join paragraphs if it's not included.

I hope that this helps you in the future, and that you can become a helpful contributor to the Reference desk and to Wikipedia in general. Confusing Manifestation(Say hi!) 05:51, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Please Stop

You have again added a question to the Reference desk that appears to be a homework question. The Reference desk is not a place for homework questions. Please stop asking questions of this nature. The reference desk will not do your homework for you. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to respond here or on my talk page. Happy editing! --omtay38 03:33, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

The website you mention does not exist. Please refrain from lying as this can be considered trolling. Also, please do not communicate in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS. This is considered SHOUTING and is considered impolite. --omtay38 17:03, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Homework

Yeats30,

You have once again posted an obvious homework question. You must refrain from posting homework questions in the Reference Desks. These pages are to be used for the asking of general non homework questions or for help pertaining to homework. However, if asking a question pertaining to homework, please make sure it is clear that it is a homework question and with what part assistence is needed. Also, make sure to show effort put forth to obtain the answer. Further disregard for the rule of homework questions on the ref desks may be considered trolling, and therefore you may be permanently or indefinitley IP blocked from posting questions on or editing Wikipedia. Once again, please refrain from this destructive behavior. Best regards, Zrs 12 (talk) 00:52, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

"Physics Weekly"

Interestingly enough, your claim of a "Physics Weekly" magazine doesn't hold up. There is no website at "physicsweekly.com", said domain isn't even registered, and there are no useful results (apart from your postings on the Ref Desk) for a Google search on '"physics weekly" magazine'. Now knock it off; we don't do homework. — Lomn 05:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

More Homework....!

Yeats,

See here for what I am about to talk about. To stop posting your homework on the reference desk has been asked of you numerous times in a very polite, civil manner. However, I think I speak for everyone at the reference desk when I say we are fed up with it. Stop posting your homework on the Wikipedia science reference desk!! or any other Wikipedia reference for that matter. We are not here to give you answers to your homework! We will help you. However, if help is what you seek, post your question about the question with which you have encountered difficulty. Continuation of this disruptive behavior may result in an IP block which will render your IP adress incapable of editing Wikipedia further. STOP BALTANTLY POSTING OBVIOUS HOMEWORK!
