Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, such as the ones you made to Talk:Taiwan. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (135.23.145.49) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Happy editing! HiLo48 (talk) 01:30, 26 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Anthem of the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Iryna Harpy (talk) 18:19, 1 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Please stop

Hi there. Please stop spamming requests for 30/500 protection like that. WP:ARBPIA3 specifies that the prohibition extends to "any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict". The key word here is "reasonably". In other words, pages that are directly related to the conflict. Not every page that is indirectly and/or marginally related to Israel or Palestine or allies or commentators thereof. By that standard, it could theoretically extend to an unlimited number of articles. Use common sense. ECP is a draconian measure that is not even needed to enforce the 30/500 prohibition on every page. Even requests you've made that are in scope have been unnecessary. Going out of your way to request protection on articles that aren't even directly related to the conflict is an utter waste of time on your part and mine, and does not contribute to the encyclopedia. So, please stop, and find something more productive to do. Thanks. Swarm 22:21, 8 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Sockpuppetry case

edit

  You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/FreshCorp619. --Triggerhippie4 (talk) 11:44, 9 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Redundant details in template

edit

Template:Infobox person says about the parameter birth_place: "Omit unnecessary or redundant details. For example, it is not necessary to state: New York City, New York, United States when New York City, US conveys essentially the same information more concisely.". It also says: "Countries should generally not be linked." Could you please stop adding such redundant information about the birthplace of persons. It is difficult to keep track of all your similar edits, so perhaps you could help out by self reverting the huge number of such additions you have made with this IP and earlier accounts/IPs. Also: As has been told you scores of times, the same goes for your incessant additions of links to political periods and similar in the birth place parameter. People are not born in government, but in countries. --T*U (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Article protection

edit

As Swarm already has explained to you, you need to learn how 30/500 protection is meant to work. The protection is not used for protecting articles that might possibly be the target of edit war and disruption. It is used when an article already has been the target of disruptive edits and when ordinary semi-protection has proven to be ineffective. It is completely off-mark here, when the article has not been targeted in any way.

Also: to mark an article as protected by {{ARBPIA}} when it is not, like you did on Talk:United Nations General Assembly resolution ES-10/L.23 before I reverted it, is disruptive, bordering on dishonesty.

Finally, just out of curiosity: Why are you so keen on 30/500-protecting articles when it means that it will prohibit you from editing the same articles? --T*U (talk) 17:52, 16 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Constitution of Bolivia, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please 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. Jim1138 (talk) 05:28, 18 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

This IP address did nothing wrong. No vandalism has been done. However, for User:Moonriddengirl, I left her a message on Wikisource and Wikimedia Commons for other issues. 135.23.145.49 (talk) 17:25, 30 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. SQLQuery me! 22:18, 30 June 2018 (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.

And in so doing blatantly confirm your identity, because being caught is part of the fun for you: [1]. I'll leave the unblock request for another admin but given your history of abusing your talk pages, will reblock to disable. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 17:27, 30 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
