I'm sorry you feel as you indicated on Oshwah's page; I don't believe any offense was intended. However, the username and promotion policies are very important to Wikipedia, as usernames cannot be that of a group or be used for promotion. These are important to help ensure a neutral point of view and that usernames are not shared. I hope that you are able to have better experiences here. Keep in mind that the vast majority of users here simply want to help others out. Best wishes 331dot (talk) 17:02, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

@331dot Thank you. But now he's threatening me for "user block evasion" saying I will be peramently banned again for making a second account! WIKIPEDIA told me to make a second account! Right on the block page it listed my options as: appeal the block, request a name change, or create a new account.

So how can I be banned for doing what I am told?

This is so frustrating, as I never had issues editing anonymously. I thought making an account would make things better, not worse! HeinrichMueller (talk) 17:19, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

That was not him, but me. I greatly misinterpreted what I read, and I beg for your forgiveness. 331dot (talk) 17:29, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
I would gently encourage you to retract your "you racist" comment from his page; as no one knows what race you are nor was anyone using it to offend you, even if they did. 331dot (talk) 17:32, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
What a welcoming committee...HeinrichMueller (talk) 17:36, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
As I indicated, I made a bad mistake, for which I again apologize. Please stop mischaracterizing the situation. You were not "banned" upon signup; a ban is not the same as a block. You were temporarily blocked to make you aware of the username policy and to get you to change your name. I then made a mistake about that situation. Responding to my mistake with attacks and non-apology apologies only continues a bad situation. 331dot (talk) 18:23, 15 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

October 2016 edit

  Please remember to assume good faith when dealing with other editors, which you did not do on African American Vernacular English. Making accusations of trolling is an assumption of bad faith. Also remember that talk pages are for discussion related to improving the article, not for use as a forum or chat room. Thank you. — Ƶ§œš¹ [lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt] 19:33, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Good faith does not always need to be followed though.HeinrichMueller (talk) 23:25, 2 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Not sure what you mean by that. And I'm not stalking you, though I did look through some of your recent contributions to see if you were behaving the same way elsewhere. — Ƶ§œš¹ [lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt] 14:04, 3 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your edit on Germans edit

Hello. I have reverted your addition of an image collage on the article since there's a general consensus here, on the English Wikipedia, not to use such images on articles about ethnic groups. - Tom | Thomas.W talk 20:54, 16 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Why? And since when? Is it not expedient to show what Germans look like and give examples of known Germans? Most articles about ethnic groups have them. Why not for the Germans? HeinrichMueller (talk) 21:37, 16 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Since early this year, and most articles about ethnic groups do not have them, and those that do are gradually losing them... - Tom | Thomas.W talk 21:40, 16 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
Why? What is the new wikilaw about this prohibition? I am asking, because it sounds like vandalism to me. HeinrichMueller (talk) 22:59, 16 October 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your last two talk page posts... edit

...sound an awful lot like a certain WP:LTA case. Ian.thomson (talk) 03:53, 15 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

To be clearer: Holocaust denial is regarded as WP:FRINGE. Wikipedia's official position is that the Holocaust happened and that it was indeed severe. Furthermore, while rejection of Zionism is somewhat common, outright antisemitism is regarded as an inane conspiracy theory by the community. Openly advocating either is generally regarded as trolling. Ian.thomson (talk) 03:54, 15 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

Blocked edit

Racist anti-semite (oh, forgot homophobic in the block log) trolls are not going to be tolerated here. Please go to Stormfront or some other place more set up to your liking. --Floquenbeam (talk) 17:45, 15 November 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've redacted the comment due to it not being particularly civil. Floq, I respect your decision, but please keep a cool head. You don't want to get into one of the dramaboards, do you? Heinrich, ganz ruhig! Dat GuyTalkContribs 18:05, 15 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
Why are you telling a racist anti-semite homophobe to "relax" instead of "go away"??? There's nothing that needs redacting in my comment, I've restored it. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:28, 15 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
