The thinking game

Welcome to Wikipedia! Wikipedia already has an existing article about that particular game at The Game (mind game). -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:15, 4 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Re your message: As I noted in my previous message, there already exists an article about The Game. Please work on that article instead of starting a new one. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:21, 4 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Akoobeeda

edit
 

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Akoobeeda, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ttonyb (talk) 19:16, 5 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Please do not make statements attacking people or groups of people. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages and images are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Mrs. Pope

edit
 

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Mrs. Pope requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Racconish Tk 14:33, 21 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Rmosler2100. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Drake Bell, with this edit, without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Rmosler | 03:05, 14 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

April 19th, 2014: April 22nd, 2014 remains a Future Release Date...

edit

G'day.

I noticed that you needlessly changed grammar in the proper future tense regarding Drake Bell's upcoming album release date, needlessly to incorrect past tense, circa April 15/17, 2014, when release date[April 22nd, 2014] was still[and is still] several days away. In the future, please refrain from changing any such data until it is no longer factual, in other words, until it is April 22nd, 2014, the album remains "to be released".

Thanks! =]

Drake Bell: discography

edit

Only studio albums belong in a discography section of an article if there is a separate page for the respective artist's discography. If you look at Justin Timberlake, his 2010 compilation album 12" Masters – The Essential Mixes wasn't added just because he did nothing in music between 2006's FutureSex/LoveSounds and 2013's The 20/20 Experience. Also, A Reminder is not the only release. There was the live video album Drake Bell in Concert and the single Superhero! Song in 2008. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 00:46, 27 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.
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 ~~~~}}.  EvergreenFir (talk) 02:25, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
 
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).

Jingle38 (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I don't think it's fair that I be censored for differing opinions, as the majority of my edits going back 13 years had nothing to do with the reasons cited for banning me. Though I sincerely aplogize for any error I made, I was indeed here to build an encyclopedia. Jingle38 (talk) 02:36, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Acroterion (talk) 03:51, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply


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.

Request reason:

I apologize for previous disruptive edits. In the future I will stay away from editing contentious political topics and will instead stick to things that are less controversial. If allowed to edit again I promise to be a productive editor that stays away from contentious edits. Thanks, and happy new year everyone. Jingle38 (talk) 23:51, 31 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Just a few days ago, you claimed you were being censored. You now seem to be claiming essentially you were editing in a controversial area. Your edit appeared to be blatantly and entirely antisemitic and to fall under WP:ZT. If you are claiming you were indeed being antisemitic, I don't see how this apology is sufficient. If you are not claiming that, I think there's no path forward without an incredibly specific and incredibly reliable source for your claim. I'm also uncomfortable with your wording of your proposed topic ban, as it's far too ambiguous. I strongly suspect any unblock request is going to have to achieve community consensus (i.e. be discussed on the noticeboard). Yamla (talk) 12:17, 1 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm still claiming to be censored. Don't know why you think I changed my story on that. As for the idea of the "Grinch" as a Jewish character, that has been the matter of an Academic discussion https://daily.jstor.org/the-anti-jewish-tropes-in-how-the-grinch-stole-christmas/ I don't see how this idea warrants a permanent ban on Wikipedia, without it being a case of censorship.
