Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Alfonso Brescia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page War of the Robots. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:10, 16 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but your recent edits, such as those to User talk:Sariel Xilo, appear to be intentional disruptions designed to illustrate a point. Edits designed for the deliberate purpose of drawing opposition, including making edits you do not agree with or enforcing a rule in a generally unpopular way, are highly disruptive and can lead to a block or ban. If you feel that a policy is problematic, the policy's talk page is the proper place to raise your concerns. If you simply disagree with someone's actions in an article, discuss it on the article talk page or, if direct discussion fails, through dispute resolution. If consensus strongly disagrees with you even after you have made proper efforts, then respect the consensus, rather than trying to sway it with disruptive tactics. Please stop copying and pasting discussions from other places to my talk; discussions on the issue should be on Talk:Greg Rucka. Sariel Xilo (talk) 18:21, 23 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

After my info about Greg Rucka's son was removed from his article, I was told specifically to discuss it further on Greg Rucka's talk page. Then when I post a comment on the talk page asking for a discussion I get indefinitely BLOCKED? Good one. Why didn't you guys just tell me Greg Rucka is editing the information that goes on his page? That would've been a lot simpler. FrankensteinsDad (talk) 16:58, 24 July 2022 (UTC) FrankensteinsDad (talk) 17:05, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Due to your violations of the policy on Biographies of living people, you have been indefinitely blocked from Greg Rucka and its talk page. Please read the Guide to appealing blocks. Cullen328 (talk) 05:29, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect.

You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

After my info about Greg Rucka's son was removed from his article, even though I provided at least ten reference sources, I was told specifically to discuss it further on Greg Rucka's talk page. Then when I post a comment on the talk page asking for a discussion I get indefinitely BLOCKED? Good one. Why didn't you guys just tell me Greg Rucka didn't want the information on his page? That would've been a lot simpler. Thanks for your impartial handling of the matter. FrankensteinsDad (talk) 16:58, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
When you wrote It has everything to do with Rucka. It shows what kind of child he has raised, which says a lot about him as a father, you disqualified yourself from writing about Greg Rucka on Wikipedia. Cullen328 (talk) 17:12, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
I am not aware of any communication from Greg Rucka about this article. I am acting to enforce WP:BLP policy. Cullen328 (talk) 17:22, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
They ASKED me why it pertained to his article! If the article is about Rucka and his personal life, and he's got a son who is arrested vandalizing storefronts 3,000 miles away from where he lives, I'd say the son's arrest was a definite life-changing event in Rucka's personal life as well. That's why I put it under "Personal life" where such things are discussed in most wiki articles. Why does his article have to be kept sanitized? FrankensteinsDad (talk) 17:23, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
An arrest (no conviction has been verified) of an adult son does not belong in the biography of his father. The arrest was covered by unreliable sensationalist tabloid newspapers, not by impeccably reliable sources. Have you read, studied and completely understood the essential WP:BLP policy? Your various comments make it crystal clear that your motivation is a desire to besmirch this man's reputation through guilt by association. That type of behavior simply is not allowed on Wikipedia. Cullen328 (talk) 17:37, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Well I certainly have nothing against the guy, I just thought it was a very unique incident, the part about him travelling 3,000 miles to smash some innocent people's windows. The sources I listed showed actual mug shots of the kid's face as he was getting booked, so how could the sources all be unreliable? It doesn't matter what newspaper reported it, it's either true or it's not. Anyway, I'd appreciate if you'd take the block off? I promise I won't revisit the page. Sorry for causing any trouble. FrankensteinsDad (talk) 19:55, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Since you show no sign of understanding and accepting WP:BLP and WP:RS policies, I will not be unblocking you. If you want another administrator to review the situation, follow the unblock request instructions at WP:GAB. Cullen328 (talk) 20:42, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
