Welcome to the 2011 WikiCup!

Hello, happy new year and welcome to the 2011 WikiCup! Your submissions' page can be found here and instructions of how to update the page can be found here and on the submissions' page itself. From the submissions' page, a bot will update the main scoresheet. Our rules have been very slightly updated from last year; the full rules can be found here. Please remember that you can only receive points for content on which you have done significant work in 2011; nominations of work from last year and "drive-by" nominations will not be awarded points. Signups are going to remain open through January, so if you know of anyone who would like to take part, please direct them to Wikipedia:WikiCup/2011 signups. The judges can be contacted on the WikiCup talk page, on their respective talk pages, or by email. Other than that, we will be in contact at the end of every month with the newsletter. If you want to stop or start receiving newsletters, please remove your name from or add your name to this list. Good luck! J Milburn and The ed17 18:31, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

3RR on 2011 Tucson shooting

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring. 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 ~~~~}} below this notice, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

You've done this in error. I listed to bold revert discuss. I discussed why the address is important. I then tried different ways, like in the infobox, in the text but only as an intersection. I didn't do the same thing 3 times. But I see why you are mad and will comply. Hakkapeliitta (talk) 22:38, 9 January 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 was not notified until after the block. Please unblock and I will edit something else. Everything I added has a source. Some people are mad but most of them don't discuss it. For example, the latest CNN report says that Giffords is communicating. One editor said that it didn't make sense (but didn't read the CNN reference) and just removed the info. If you unblock, this will set the stage for good relations. Try to make excuses and you will just make people, like me, mad. Remember, I said if unblocked, I won't edit Tucson today. Please be nice, not nasty.

Decline reason:

You've been clearly warned for edit warring at least three times now. Threats indicate that unblocking you would be a poor idea. Kuru (talk) 22:23, 9 January 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.

(ec) To expand on that: You have added that particular piece of information at least four times to the article. Your change still had no consensus, but you tried to get your way through persistency. That is edit warring, and you quite certainly were warned about that.
An indirect threat "unblock me, or you'll make me mad" is not a good way to get unblocked. You need to show that this won't be a problem again. Amalthea 22:30, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Request reason:

Again, the unblock request was refused saying it is a threat. It is NOT a threat. Unblock me in good faith and I will show similar good faith in not editing Tucson. Such good faith sets the tone for good feelings and good relations. Besides, if I don't do as I say, that would show that I am an asshole. I am not an asshole. So please show good faith by unblocking and I will should extreme restraint and politeness. Please don't try to show your power. Thank you.

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

Unblock me in good faith and I will show similar good faith in not editing Tucson. Such good faith sets the tone for good feelings and good relations. Besides, if I don't do as I say, that would show that I am an asshole. I am not an asshole. So please show good faith by unblocking and I will should extreme restraint and politeness. Please don't try to show your power. Thank you. |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=Again, the unblock request was refused saying it is a threat. It is NOT a threat. Unblock me in good faith and I will show similar good faith in not editing Tucson.
