Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

@Kirbanzo: Two simple questions a) why? b) why didn't you tell me who you were, and what authority you have?

Hi IP user. I'm an administrator here, and I'm looking into your question. I've removed it from WP:RFPP (again) because it's in the wrong place and it's breaking the way that page works. Give me a minute and I'll get back to you here. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 16:00, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Giving you several minutes. I just wanted to ask a perfectly reasonable q on refdesk, and cannot.

Apologies for the inconvenience, but the reference desk is currently restricted to editors with a confirmed account because of severe vandalism by an anonymous editor. It looks like it's protected until November 1, but some of the sub-pages may be protected for different periods. If you have a question you'd like to post, you can go ahead and write it on this page and I'll move it over for you or ask someone there to answer here. In addition you were not able to save some of your edits at WP:RFPP because of an edit filter which prevents replacing an entire page with obscenities, which one of your "what the fuck" edits matched.
