Hi, I've twice reverted additions you've made of an apparently non-existent category. Perhaps I've missed something, otherwise continuing to add non-existent links may be seen as test edits or vandalism. Thank you, JNW (talk) 00:51, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Wikipedia. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Nomination of Foreign Influence on US Presidential Election, 2012 for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Foreign Influence on US Presidential Election, 2012 is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Foreign Influence on US Presidential Election, 2012 until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. JNW (talk) 15:17, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

November 2012, redux

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. JNW (talk) 03:15, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Bluman v. Federal Election Commission

Hello Corinne.L.Clark,

It seems to me that an article you worked on, Bluman v. Federal Election Commission, may be copied from http://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/bluman-v-federal-election-commission/. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.

It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 03:17, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Admin noticeboard

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

I've attempted to engage discussion here numerous times. JNW (talk) 04:00, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I thought I had replied. This page is a work in progress. I ask that you please allow me to finish before deleting my work. (Corinne.L.Clark (talk) 05:02, 15 November 2012 (UTC))

A final warning

Dear Corinne,

If you don't start discussing the article with the editors who have been deleting your work, you are going to find yourself blocked from Wikipedia very soon. Wikipedia is a collaborative project. Editors who refuse to work well with others are not permitted to be here. Someguy1221 (talk) 04:51, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

This page is a work in progress - while some editors are very eager to delete my work I ask that they please allow me to finish before doing so. (Corinne.L.Clark (talk) 05:04, 15 November 2012 (UTC))

What everyone has been trying to tell you is that the article is not being considered for deletion because it is incomplete. It is being considered because what is currently written does not meet Wikipedia's standards, no matter how it may be added to or reworded. Please see Wikipedia:No original research. Someguy1221 (talk) 05:09, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Perhaps if they would allow me to finish this page it would meet the requirements - while editors are ethusiastically deleting everything I write i am attempting to source and format. (Corinne.L.Clark (talk) 05:13, 15 November 2012 (UTC))

• Let me also pile onto the warnings. This was not about your article being underdeveloped, this was about your article being blatantly biased and disparaging. There was literally no part of that article that was acceptable for this encyclopedia. In other words, had you, in good faith, wanted to convert it into a suitable Wikipedia article, it would require a total rewrite. As such, the copy of the article in your sandbox has been deleted as well. Right now, though, it appears that your only purpose is to insert POV into Wikipedia, and we're being quite generous by not blocking you outright. But any continued behavior of this type will almost certainly result in an indefinite block. Swarm ^X 07:15, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

• I've closed the ANI discussion, but would add that Swarm is completely correct in every statement here. We are not here to publish fringe conspiracy theories, original research or drag people's names into the mud. We are an encyclopedia. I would strongly suggest Corinne read the WP:Five pillars and familiarize themselves with the goals of Wikipedia before attempting to create any new articles. Recreating articles like the previously deleted version will likely be seen as a form of disruption and result in the editor being blocked for an indefinite period of time. As editors, we must always be focused on presenting neutral information that is covered by reliable sources, not theories loosely strung together by personal interpretations of events.

November 2012

Please do not create pages that attack, threaten, or disparage their subject. Attack pages and files are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who create or add such material may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you. The Devil's Advocate (talk) 06:22, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Blocked

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for disruptive editing - re-creating in your sandbox after the final warnings above a page already deleted as partisan/attack. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. JohnCD (talk) 21:01, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

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:

I was under the impression the sandbox was a TRIAL place to edit pages, I am working on a rewrite - I didn't post this page back up. This seems like I am being unreasonably targeted. The accusation that the page was inflammatory is completely a biased opinion not based in fact. Corinne.L.Clark (talk) 00:04, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

Decline reason:

sandbox pages are in fact places to work on material not ready for article space. However, they are still hosted by Wikipedia and therefore some of our content policies still apply. Specifically material that attacks or defames someone or copyright violations are absolutely prohibited regardless of where they are posted. This website is not here for political advocacy of any kind, be it conservative, liberal, fascist, communist, anarchist, whatever. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:35, 16 November 2012 How's this page inflammatory?? There is no negative character assumptions of either candidate! (Corinne.L.Clark (talk) 00:37, 16 November 2012 (UTC))

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.
