  This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Talk:Lava lamp, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. And messages at Talk:Tak and the Power of Juju and other places. No mas. Drmies (talk) 03:25, 23 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

A page you created in your user space User:HybridBiology/Smart Security was a verbatim copy of this web page, which is shown as "copyright 2006-2012, Bonobo Pty Limited". Accordingly, I have deleted the page as a copyright violation. Please be aware that all contributions here must be original writing, you can summarize and paraphrase sources, but you may not copy them directly. Regards.

Article talk pages edit

Hi. A number of your edits raise the possibility that you misunderstand the purpose of article talk pages. These pages exist so that editors can discuss with each other ways of improving the article they're connected to. They are not there for general discussions about the subject of the article, nor are they there for chatting or "shout outs" about subjects vaguely connected to the article. Posts that aren't related to improving the article can be deleted from the page, which has happened with three or four of your edits to to date.

We certainly invite your participation here, and I hope you'll get the hang of things soon, but please don't use article talk pages for anything except what they're meant for, and please don't import copyrighted material into anywhere on Wikipedia, including your Userspace and all talk pages. We're very strict about how copyrighted material can be used, and how much of it -- we take the issue very seriously.

Please feel feel to contact me if you have any questions. You can leave a message on my talk page, or leave a message here on this page, which I will be monitoring. Best of luck. Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:15, 24 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Wikipedia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 23:13, 24 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

  This is the last warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits.
Your continued joking at Talk:Earth is disruptive and considered vandalism. You may be blocked from editing Wikipedia the next time you do so. SkyMachine (++) 23:20, 24 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
