User talk:Speedfish

Welcome!

Hello, Speedfish, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

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

Thank you.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

• Your first article
• Biographies of living persons
• How to write a great article
• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Help pages
• Tutorial

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! RadioFan (talk) 12:57, 1 February 2010 (UTC) RadioFan (talk) 12:57, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Template changes

Do not change anymore Navagation boxes such as Template:Wiz Khalifa and Template:Waka Flocka Flame unless you read and understand WP:NAVBOX. Navagation boxes are to "navagate" wikipedia so everything added there must have an internal link. Such as "Roll Up" not "The Race (Wiz Khalifa song)". STATic message me! 01:27, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

September 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. I notice that you removed topically-relevant content from Flockaveli. However, Wikipedia is not censored to remove content that might be considered objectionable. Please do not remove or censor information that directly relates to the subject of the article. If the content in question involves images, you have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide images that you may find offensive. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 18:54, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Nor Cal Red Hawks

The article Nor Cal Red Hawks has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable sports team

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. StAnselm (talk) 10:44, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Censorship

Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Respect My Hustle. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Williamsburgland (talk • contribs) 15:38, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Your final warning

This is your last warning. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at The Appeal: Georgia's Most Wanted, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. The fact that you tried to hide one of your edits indicates that you're aware what you're doing is wrong but doing it anyway. This is your final warning before I seek moderator intervention. --Williamsburgland (talk) 19:28, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 3 days for continuing to violate the policy that Wikipedia is not censored, despite warnings and a previous block. Please do not continue to do this when the block expires, or you will be blocked for much longer, which would be a great pity, as you do much useful work for Wikipedia. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. 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. JamesBWatson (talk) 19:48, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

• I have unblocked you, as the disruptive editing seems to have been a mistake. I suggest you try to see if something can be done about the filter. In any case, now that you know there is a problem it is up to you to make sure it doesn't happen again. At the very least you should click on "Show changes" before saving any edit, and if the problem is about to happen don't save it. JamesBWatson (talk) 19:56, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

• • I suspect part of what's caused this is that it wouldn't always be obvious what the parental filters done so as well as clicking "show changes" it may then be worth also using your browsers find function (usually Edit...Find) to see if the page contains any *s. Dpmuk (talk) 22:59, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Again....

I simply cannot wrap my head around why you would make two dozen helpful edits to Wikipedia, and bury yet ANOTHER attempt at censorship right in the middle. You've been warned and blocked repeatedly, and the first thing you do is wipe out all the objectionable language in an article covering a genre of music that typically contains objectionable language. I've yet to see any attempt on your part to explain you actions or address this via the proper channels as has been suggested to you in the past. In light of this, I'm not even going to bother with another warning; I'm just going to notify for a longer block. I'm sure we'll go through this all over again when you return.--Williamsburgland (talk) 20:57, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

• I am very reluctant to block you indefinitely, but that is the way you are heading. There are Wikipedia policies which I don't agree with, but I try to stick to them. Either you do the same, or there is no place for you in Wikipedia. When I saw that you had yet again been defying the policy on censorship, I was considering whether to block you for one week or two. However, I then noticed your edit summary, in which you made a totally misleading statement about what your edit was doing, pretending you were just "adding a link". If you not only deliberately flout Wikipedia policy, but also take steps to hide the fact that you are doing so, then there is really no justification. I have blocked you for one month, but I warn you that if you continue in the same way you will be blocked indefinitely. JamesBWatson (talk) 21:14, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

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).

---

Request reason:

I 'm able to notice many things on Wikipedia pages that are missing, such as links. I really want to help and update the pages.

Decline reason:

Yes, you are able to do those things. However, you appear hell-bent on eventual destruction of articles. You have failed to respond to the concerns above, and I'm quite surprised this is not an indefinite block. Read WP:GAB. Answer to the discussions above (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 09:40, 2 November 2011 (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.

Technical f...up?

Speedfish, do you realise that you've been blocked not for those link-related edits, but for replacing words like fuck with asterisks in process? Maybe, there is some kind of parental filter on your computer? 212.233.112.10 (talk) 11:02, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

"Parental filter"

I've been editing Wikipedia on my iMac, which has a parental filter. If I use Safari on there, censors out stuff with asterisks. I'm not censoring out things, I'm not erasing anything questionable, my Apple computer just does it when I use Safari. I've also been editing on an old Dell computer, just in case this might be causing the problem. If I've edited on the Dell, I'm not censoring out anything, I'm just trying to add important information to pages. - Speedfish

I don't think Safari has that wordfilter by default. Anyway, I'll start a discussion at the proper venue. 46.44.46.91 (talk) 16:40, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Speedfish: The solution here is pretty simple. If an article contains anything questionable, don't use your iMac to edit it. Either just don't edit it, or use your Dell. A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 17:21, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

I'm so sorry guys!! I knew the iMac censors out stuff, but I didn't know that if I edited a page on there, it would save the asterisks put up by the iMac for the whole world to look at. I'm really sorry.:( - Speedfish

Speedfish: So, what are you going to do to prevent this from happening again? Are you going to just use your Dell? Or only use the iMac when you are absolutely sure this is nothing questionable? A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 17:52, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I'll only use the Dell, it's just that I didn't know that the iMac could put asterisks on pages. I really didn't know. Please forgive me. I thought I was only adding important stuff and fixing mistakes and erasing unnecessary things, not censoring out stuff.- Speedfish

Can I suggest you add another unblock request. I can't unblock you (as I'm not an admin) but I believe your explanation above and believe you should be unblock as I explain in more detail at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#****ed up? No, fucked up!. For the reason I suggest you just point to this discussion. Given this discussion and my suggestion adding another unblock request won't be seen as a bad thing so I wouldn't worry there. Dpmuk (talk) 18:16, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Speedfish: You can add another unblock request as Dpmuk suggests. If you do, you need to explain 2 things:

1. That you understand what you did wrong. (Basically, explain the whole filtering thing.)
2. That it won't happen again. (Basically, explain that you will only edit on your Dell which doesn't have the filter.)

Or if you like, I can ask the blocking admin to undo his block. Keep in mind that if it happens again - even if on accident - your next block will almost certainly be indefinite. A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 18:29, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Personally I think they explain that well enough in this conversation, but it can't do any harm to repeat it. Dpmuk (talk) 18:40, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Hey Speedfish, you said that the parental feature works when you use safari, what if you used Firefox instead, does it do the same thing? N^oformation ^Talk 18:48, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I've been unblocked! Thanks guys, but me filtering out words, I didn't do it on purpose, it was something I didn't know about. I had no clue, and I'm really sorry. Can I ask you something though? Someone on Wiki criticized me for making 24 helpful edits at one time. Should I limit the amount of edits I make at a certain time? Because I'm REALLY good at noticing things and try to fix them. When it comes to music articles, there are redirect song pages that I like to try to add to artists' lists. Should I limit the amount of redirect songs I add to the lists at certain times, though? I know I've been here for a over a year and 10 months, but I just don't know some things, you know? I don't know if the Firefox on the iMac wouldn't censor out things randomly, but I promised I would use the Dell only. What do you think about all of what I said? Wait, I don't think I've been unblocked...I thought I was, but apparently, it says it will expire on Nov 3...which do I believe? Am I unblocked, or still blocked?

• You should be unblocked now - I've lifted the autoblock. Elen of the Roads (talk) 22:43, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Try installing Firefox or Opera, then make some edits to your userpage, drop in a couple swear words. If it works, then the issue is probably with Safari settings and you can just use another browser. Night Ranger (talk) 02:00, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

• I don't know whether you saw the message I posted above when I unblocked you. By mistake I put it below an old block notice instead of the latest one. If you didn't see it then I suggest reading it now. (It starts "I have unblocked you...") I hope you can now edit usefully, and put this unfortunate problem behind you. JamesBWatson (talk) 10:33, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

Why

are you adding categories to re-directed articles? Calvin • ^{Watch n' Learn} 16:03, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

I first saw that a few redirects were on Rick Ross' songs category, so I began adding more. I add these songs so others will see that I added them and mabye they'll want to make an article on them. On the article, they could talk about the song's composition, critical reception and/or charting, if it ever did. A few of the redirect songs are also singles. - Speedfish

Hmm okay. I just didn't get why you added ones to A Million Miles Away (Rihanna song), Farewell (Rihanna song), We All Want Love and Birthday Cake (song) as they re-direct back to their respective parent articles. Calvin • ^{Watch n' Learn} 18:44, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Merry Christmas!

	Happy new year!
	we wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year! Pass a Method talk 18:58, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

Song redirects.

There is no problem with you adding WP:Song|class=redirect when you create redirects. Although I wonder at creating redirects in the first place. I assume they are likely search terms.--Richhoncho (talk) 12:26, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Well, the songs that I make redirect pages for might have either made the Hot 100 top 40, got certified gold, or topped the Rap or R&B/Hip-Hop charts. - Speedfish 5:14, 8 January 2012.

What if...

I'm just wondering, what if there were Wikipedia's such as a medieval one or a Constitution-like one? It'd be like: "The New England Patriots are hath a club in the town of Foxborough, Massachusetts. It was hath starteth in the year of Our Lord one-thousand, nine-hundred and fifty nine..."

Unblocked issue

Ok, about the blocking incident, the Safari has the parental filter but I noticed that Google Chrome or Firefox don't have it, but just for Safari, so I was using both programs and not Safari to edit on wikipedia. Sometimes on Google Chrome it says that I'm blocked but the block log entry is the entry where I got unblocked. Other times, I'm not blocked. What's going on here? It doesn't do that on the Dell at all, just as it doesn't on Google Chrome & Firefox.- Speedfish May 11 2012 17:38 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Smigg Dirtee

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

The article Southwest Florida Spartans has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable sports team. Failed to play any games in a notable league.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Copyright Violations

Hello Speedfish. That message above from CorenSearchBot has called attention to some of your edits where you have copied text in directly from other websites. This is in violation of our policy on copyright. All content here must be written in your own words. You can use those sources for getting the ideas you want to write about, but the actual text must be in your own words. I picked the most recent 5 of your large adds, and found them all to have been laregly copied in from the Internet: Perico, Texas, Lajitas, Texas, Whitney, West Virginia, Fire Creek, West Virginia, and Michigan, West Virginia.

Now, there's several ways to proceed. The best is for you to go back through your edits and identify the ones where you copied in text like that, and remove the copied parts. The other way is that we open an official Copyright Investigation where others essentially do the same thing. The first way demonstrates that you are willing to help us clean up what could be a legal mess for Wikipedia, so is of course preferred all around.

Most importantly, moving forward, be sure you do not copy any text from any internet site (or even from a book), but rather write out those ideas and fact in your own words. I'm glad to help out if I can. Please reply back here regarding the above, thanks. Crow^Caw 01:02, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

Request reason:

I didn't know the link I had posted on that ghost town page was copyrighted. I took it down once I found out it was. - Speedfish

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.

Request reason:

Ok, so I haven't been paying attention to what is copyrighted and what isn't. I don't keep track of my notifications as much as I should, so that's why I didn't really know what the warnings were all about. I can't even tell if I even received some of the warnings prior to my blocking. Can you tell me how long I'll be blocked at the least? - Speedfish

Decline reason:

I'm sorry, but your responses below are simply underwhelming and do not give any indication that you understand the problem. You are not blocked for "posting links", you are blocked for wholesale cut&pastes from copyrighted sources, and then completely ignoring warnings and patient pleas to stop this problematic behavior. You will need to explicitly pledge to stop this, and show some indication that you understand the problem. Kuru (talk) 14:32, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Indefinitely, as you can see in your block log. And to see if the warning were received before your block, look at the date and time at the end of each one. Frankly, given your history of copyright infringement, I don't see much hope for an unblock. Origamite^ⓣⓒ 16:19, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

I really haven't paid much attention to any of those things, as I have tried to tell you. Had I known about these infringements, I would'nt've have continued doing it - Speedfish — Preceding unsigned comment added by Speedfish (talk • contribs) 17:21, 16 January 2015‎

For now, I am leaving your unblock request open, and any other administrator is free to assess it and either accept it or reject it. However, your previous blocks were also a result of the fact that you hadn't "paid much attention" to things you were doing. That was a long time ago, and I am concerned that you are still editing without paying enough attention to what is going on. For that reason, I am not likely to unblock you unless you can give a clear indication that your approach to editing will be very different from now on. I am sure you are a good faith editor, and I do believe you when you say that you "would'nt've" done what you did if you had realised what you were doing. That applies both to this block and in to the previous block. However, the point is that you need to make sure that you do realise what you are doing. If you are to have a reasonable chance of being unblocked, I think you will need to convince either me or another administrator that from now on you will take far more care to check things. What differences will there be in what you do from now on, if you are unblocked? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 21:20, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

I didn't know what was copyrighted and what wasn't. I promise it will be different from now on. I'll read what links I can post and what ones I can't. - Speedfish

I haven't even been blocked in 2 years, and it wasn't even the result of being copyrighted. - Speedfish - Speedfish — Preceding unsigned comment added by Speedfish (talk • contribs) 23:06, 16 January 2015‎

You are right. In fact I lifted your last block well over three years ago, not just two, and it had nothing to do with copyright. However, my point is that both of the times you have been blocked, it has been because you were not taking enough notice. The last time, you were apparently editing with some kind of "parental" filter running, which replaced text in articles you edited with asterisks, as for example in these edits: [1] [2] [3]. To make an odd mistake like that once or twice is perhaps an understandable mistake, but you kept on doing it, which suggests that you were not checking the effect of your edits before clicking on "save page". You received several messages about the problem, but you carried on doing the same thing. You should have been prompted by those messages to look back at the edits they referred to and check to see what was being objected to, in which case you would have seen what the problem was, but you didn't. Alternatively, you could have asked the editors what they meant by the messages, but you just ignored them instead. You were blocked, and given a block notice which explicitly mentioned replacing text by asterisks, but you still didn't check the edits to see what was wrong. After the block, you simply removed all messages about the problem, and continued as before. You got more messages about the problem, and another block, but it was only when another editor suggested that it might be a parental filter that you took any notice. I have no doubt at all that you were a ting in good faith, and honestly did not realise what you were doing, but the point is that it was your fault that you did not realise, as took no notice of messages, and did not look back at the edits in question, which you should have done. (For example, one second looking at this edit would have been enough for you to have seen the problem.) OK, eventually, following the help of other editors, you seemed to understand, so I unblocked you, moved on to other things, and pretty well forgot your existence until, rather more than three years later, I find you have been blocked again. This time it is for copyright infringements, which is very different, but the point is that once again you were ignoring messages from other editors, and failing to make any attempt to check what the problems with your editing were. Looking at this talk page, I also see 23 disambiguation link notifications, sent over a period ranging from August 2012 to November 2014. The idea is that you read the notification, realise what you mistake was, and make sure you never make the same mistake again, not that you just let them pile up on your talk page and ignore them. You say " I haven't been paying attention", and that is really the whole cause of both this block and the blocks on the previous occasion: anyone who regularly edits Wikipedia must pay attention. Everything you have written here shows not only that you haven't been paying attention, but also that you don't realise how much of a serious problem not paying attention is. I certainly won't block you unless you can persuade me that you are going to dramatically change, and I doubt that any other administrator will either. Simply saying "I didn't bother to know about copyright, but now I do know" is nowhere near enough. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 15:15, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Equipto

The article Equipto has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication of Notability, appears to be a non-notable supporting artist.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
