New to editing?
editThank you for contributing to Wikipedia articles about several stars. Unfortunately, I have had to revert your changes due to a number of problems. Some of the data values that you changed did not match the reference given for that data. Wikipedia relies on reliable sources to verify its content. Any material (other than the blatantly obvious) that does not have a reliable reference may be deleted at any time. You also removed some information that already had reliable references, for no apparent reason. It is helpful, although not mandatory, to give an edit summary for changes that you make. Without this information, changes made for no obvious reason are more likely to be reverted. Lithopsian (talk) 14:32, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Tarl N.. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Castor (star), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I've reverted several more changes you've made since the above warning. Every last one of them involving arbitrary changes which do not agree with the cited sources. Tarl N. (discuss) 18:09, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Castor (star). Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Every edit you have made has been WP:UNSOURCED. The information may or may not be "correct" (in some cases it certainly isn't), but it contradicts what the reliable sources already in the articles say. Doing this once or twice as a new editor is almost expected. Doing it repeatedly after being warned more than once is at best WP:DISRUPTIVE and at worst WP:VANDALISM. Lithopsian (talk) 15:28, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did with this edit to Meissa. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Mako001 (C) (T) 🇺🇦 02:00, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- As always, I will fix it. Power Hacks (talk) 13:04, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Atmosphere of Earth. You keep saying you will "fix" it, but everyone else is actually having to fix your lack of sources, poor grammar, and other non-constructive edits. In case you didn't notice what this warning is about, the next edit you make that has to be reverted by another editor is likely to result in your account being blocked from editing. Read about reliable sources that are required for all Wikipedia content, double-check your grammar and if you have any doubts just don't take the chance, and be very sure that changes you make are an actual improvement to the article. I appreciate that you are editing in WP:GOODFAITH, but there comes a time when disrupting Wikipedia in good faith can't be tolerated any further. Lithopsian (talk) 12:42, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

editHello, Power Hacks, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Powervision2011 (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Tarl N. (discuss) 04:20, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Tarl N.. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Rigel, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please read WP:RS and WP:CITE. Merely adding a mention of “Universal Sandbox” is not a citation, nor is it a reliable source. Tarl N. (discuss) 02:30, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- I backed out other changes you made as well. Please do not make any more changes to Wikipedia until you understand what a reliable source is, and how to cite such a source. Contact me on my talk page if you have any questions, at this point, your repeated unusable changes are getting obnoxious. Tarl N. (discuss) 02:46, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

editThank for your advices, @Lithopsian @Tarl N. As always, I will fix my editing problems. Power Hacks (talk) 09:01, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
- Again, please stop editing until you understand reliable sources and how to cite them. I've reverted your recent crop of harmful edits. You should make no additions unless you have a reliable source and include a citation to it. Please read how to add citations carefully, asking other people to fix your citations will be a problem.

. firefly ( t · c ) 15:29, 12 October 2022 (UTC)- Hey, @Firefly, can you give me a temporary block rather than an indefinite block? Power Hacks (talk) 14:05, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
Power Hacks (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I didn't vandalize anything, just because I did not editing properly (persistent addition of unsourced contents) so I get blocked from editing. So, I think that an indefinite block is too long for me. Also, my pending plans hasn't been done yet. So, I give an unblock request and guarantee that I will editing the encyclopedia properly by providing reliable sources.
Decline reason:
Declining and removing talk page access. WP:IDHT over and over in every unblock request. RickinBaltimore (talk) 13:40, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
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.
- Power Hacks, this issue isn't about the duration of the block, but about your lack of understanding about its purpose. Cabayi (talk) 14:21, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
- @Cabayi, I should consider a temporary block rather than this indefinite block. Power Hacks (talk) 03:34, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
- I'm now also revoking email access. RickinBaltimore (talk) 12:48, 30 October 2022 (UTC)

Not a sockpuppet
editHey, @Favonian, I am not the sockpuppet of @Ararat Avev. Power Hacks (talk) 13:04, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
Power Hacks (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I need to continue editing because I need to continue editing my user page (editing on that hasn't been done yet). So, this is not the time for an administrator to block me. And also, I guarantee that I will fix all of my editing problems.
Decline reason:
An appeal which does not address the reasons for the block, and which focuses on your user page rather than improving the content of the encyclopedia emphasises your editing problems rather than fixing them. Cabayi (talk) 13:30, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
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.

We'll need more than your word on this. You've clearly had other chances before. 331dot (talk) 07:24, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

Feel like I'm talk to a Magic 8ball, so closed. Time will tell. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:49, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
is open. Is it good enough to restore talk page access? @RickinBaltimore and Firefly: -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:49, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
- I'm honestly not convinced. RickinBaltimore (talk) 15:00, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
