• Coming here to say the same as Tamzin. It is not acceptable to post messages to our newest editors with such an odd-looking signature. Espresso Addict (talk) 21:54, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

   I wouldn't say this is biting the newcomers. It is a fair concern that it looks odd, and I'll do something with HTML (next couple of days) once I have the time to figure it out. In the meanwhile I don't think it violates any rules so I'll keep it.

You know, I'm not actually a fan of photos of herbarium specimens on species pages, but someone had already put it there and I accidentally removed it. And that pic is particularly nice; it still has some green coloration, and that itself is odd because the species is supposed to be extinct. Abductive (reasoning) 00:03, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

I'm a little confused, can you remind me what you're talking about?

@JayCubby: I came here on your talk page to ask you regarding your signature and saw this. I think that your signature is a bit too long - please shorten it to simply your username. Also, I advise against referring to contentious current events, especially one under CTOP sanctions, on your signature as well. Prodraxis _(talk) 22:06, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Emperor of Wikipedia

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Emperor of Wikipedia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2012 August 2. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Reply

Good afternoon, from Portugal,

many thanks for this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:193.137.135.5#A_belated_welcome!)! Now, for some explanation and bits and pieces: i do have an account already, this one. I have been here for 18 years give or take, but i'm not having fun anymore, more a chore than anything else really, but one could say i'm wiki-hooked!

Sometimes i'm too lazy to log in (really can't explain why), but my edits (account and IP) speak for themselves i do believe. The only thing i really have no patience for is vandalism, and it sometimes unfortunately translates to my summaries, really cannot help myself there. I used to have a rollback feature in my previous account (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Quite_A_Character; it was not blocked or anything, i just stopped using it because i really wanted to leave WP, then forgot about the password so had to stupidly create another one), very useful for vandalism, but not anymore.

That's it for the moment, do not hesitate to contact me if you have additional doubts/comments. Cheers, keep up the good work! RevampedEditor (talk) 16:37, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

@RevampedEditor: Thanks for replying! Your edit summaries seem to be fairly reasonable, and consider applying for rollback rights--it should be fairly easy to re-apply given your editing history.

My own wiki-addiction is slowly developing...

Cheers!

CONTROVERSY

Dear Jaychubby,

I noticed recently that a few people have taken to Wikipedia to lie about me and make public posts. I will like it fact-checked and removed.

Thank you. Chidiebereibe (talk) 22:49, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

The way to do that is through the talk page on you. I agree that Twitter is not a reliable source, and will take a look for better sources. In what way is it a "lie"? 🇺🇲JayCubby✡ plz edit my user pg! Talk 22:52, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

When I created the Black Fetus Illustration and it went viral, I received a lot of hate speech and threats from people, because I was celebrated. The news of me selling the arts on NFT is a lie. I never sold the illustration on NFT, of course, NFT is a public sales place, and you will see who purchased it, if there was ever a buyer. It was only uploaded to protect the art but never sold, as we took it down to give the art away for free. For the accusation of plagiarism, it never happened. All my illustrations are unique and has been as a tool to advocate for patient's health outcomes. Chidiebereibe (talk) 22:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Your User page

Hello, JayCubby,

You have a User page that is impossible to view because of all of the busy, animated graphics that are placed on top of each other. It's very 2003 MySpace or Geocities.

Vandalism (?)

The edits made were aimed at rectifying the use of the term 'Berber,' which is considered offensive to the Amazigh people. It was not an act of vandalism but rather an effort to ensure cultural sensitivity and accuracy in the content. SaraWiki123 (talk) 13:47, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

See Names of the Berber people and Wikipedia:Commonname. 🇺🇲JayCubby✡ please edit my user page! Talk 13:50, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Even the pages referenced are about the Amazigh people, which underscores the significance of using culturally sensitive language. The term 'Berber' is considered offensive by many within the Amazigh community, and it's crucial to respect their preferences in Wikipedia's content. Furthermore, the article you mentioned acknowledges that the term 'Berber' is viewed as pejorative by many who prefer the term 'Amazigh,' emphasizing the importance of using appropriate terminology.

Re: Archive.org

Thanks for your edits to my source thing. I didn't realize it was on Archive.org. To my awareness linking to Archive.org is fine for books provided it is either 1) out of copyright (which this isn't) or 2) one of their "lending service" type books, which you have to log in to read (which means Archive.org is lending you the copy, and it's not just a random upload). That appears to be the case with the lone wolf book, so it's fine to link.

I actually really wanted to read that book, but couldn't find a copy, so thanks for pointing that out :P PARAKANYAA (talk) 14:12, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

I assume this is about my userpage? If so, I can tone it down substantially (and change the sig).

Side note: you read the message on the top of my talkpage and thanks for the template! 🇺🇲JayCubby✡ please edit my user page! Talk 16:31, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Your userpage, your signature. Focus on content writing/editing is the path forward Star Mississippi 16:47, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Other accounts

Hi JayCubby, I was just wondering why you created JayCubby-public and BMX is on wikibreak right now!, because it seems the latter is blocked for sockpuppetry. Thanks. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 02:24, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

Pinging @Oshwah as an FYI.

Jay, as I said above. This is not the path forward toward your goals. Star Mississippi 12:54, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Primefac (talk) 14:26, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

This is very disappointing to see, JayCubby. You were one of my favorite anti-vandalism patrollers, and I was always happy to see your name pop up whenever you beat me to reverting vandalism. The fact that you created an account referencing the username of a well-known LTA to potentially troll (this is just speculation -- I don't know the contents of that account, given that I am not an administrator, but that's what I'd imagine considering the fact that the contributions have been deleted, in addition to the username itself), something that you show good enough judgment not to do on this account, is so frustrating to me it's hard to put it into words.

I recommend that you take the standard offer here. I would like to see you back editing, but I'd imagine that given your abuse of multiple accounts (very likely in a WP:Good hand, bad hand scenario, considering the evidence I've gathered), nothing less than that will be granted. Despite my disappointment, I do hope that you can learn from this, and whether or not you come back here in six months to appeal, I genuinely wish you all the best. JeffSpaceman (talk) 22:33, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

I was disappointed to see you had socked, too. It's a shame, I had really gotten used to seeing your name on the project as I edited. Please learn from your mistake and read the Guide to Appealing Blocks before submitting an unblock request if that's what you choose to you. Don't create any new account or you will never be back as an editor in good standing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:36, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

I am disapointed too, aswell as suprised. got used to seeing you in various places around wikipedia, and I hope that you can learn from this and return if thats what you choose. In any case, I wish you the best. GrayStorm^{(Talk|Contributions)} 20:52, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Same here. I am also shocked and disappointed that you abused multiple accounts recently. It's a pity, given that many of your edits to this encyclopedia were notable by many of us (including me). Your counter-vandalism work in hundreds of pages was indeed helpful. Nevertheless, I hope you will learn from the mistakes you made that led to the block imposed on you. Please also refrain from creating any more accounts here at this point. Wishing you all the best 6 months later. ~ SG5536B (talk) 07:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Do NOT create new accounts, as you did at User:JayCubby-StandardOffer. Doing so while your original account is blocked is a violation of WP:SOCK, and that now means you have to reset the six-month timer for the standard offer. Heed Liz's advice above: "Don't create any new account or you will never be back as an editor in good standing." I'm rooting for you, and I want to see you come back in six months, but you cannot edit here, under any account or IP, until the block on this account is successfully appealed. I will also point you to WP:3X -- as you have been blocked under the new account for evasion, if you are confirmed by a CheckUser even one more time for violating your block, you will very likely be banned by the community. This will mean that an unblock request that can be appealed to any individual administrator turns into one that will have to go to the administrators' noticeboard, where consensus will determine whether or not you will be allowed to return to editing. I don't want to see you end up banned, but policy is policy, regardless of what I personally want.

I'm not saying any of this to apply pressure on you. I want you to understand all this so that you have a chance of coming back here in six months with a successful appeal. Continuing to evade your block will only prolong your inability to edit here. Please, for the sake of editors like me who want to see you succeed, try the standard offer. Thank you. JeffSpaceman (talk) 21:05, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

I saw your thanking me on Simple English under your new account on there, but please let me make this crystal clear for you in case someone hasn't already -- you are globally locked. You must successfully appeal that block in order to edit any Wikimedia project. This wiki is certainly included, but a global lock also applies to other Wikimedia sites including (but not limited to) Simple English and foreign language Wikimedia sites. I can't swear that you'll need to wait six months from this very date to appeal this website's block, given that you didn't sock on this specific wiki (though someone else is free to chime in if they have the answer), but evading your block by creating new accounts only elongates your status as unwelcome on Wikimedia sites. Please take the standard offer, and do not create another account. Come back in six months to request unblocking, with absolutely zero edits to any Wikimedia project, and you might have a chance. As I said before, I want to see you back, but creating new accounts to circumvent your global lock is unacceptable. Please, just wait six months. JeffSpaceman (talk) 16:44, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) I'm not sure if this is correct in the situation or not, but given that this account was locked as potentially compromised, I'm wondering (from reading m:Global locks#Compromised account) if emailing WMF Trust and Safety would be necessary in this situation. However, given that other accounts have been locked as LTAs, I can't say I'm exactly sure what the best thing to do here would be. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten_[meow] 06:06, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
