Information icon Please refrain from making test edits in Wikipedia pages, such as those you made to Ștefan Arteni, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use your sandbox. Using AWB to make test edits is not a great idea—I would say don't do that again, but I can see you've already (rightly) had AWB revoked. -- TNT (talk • she/her) 21:28, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:03, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's too much disruption in a too short amount of time. Take a week off, and if it's just to reduce the amount of work others need to invest to clean up after your edits. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:04, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I take this as a challenge! How much can I improve Roswell P. Flower Memorial Library in a week? Find out next time... in a week! Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:07, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That does sound productive and fine. It's just the "taking a block as a challenge" part that fits the current image. I'm not sure if a week suffices to fix that; it probably usually isn't a problem by itself, but it seems to aggravate the situations you run into. 😐 ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:12, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

One of my redirects has been listed for discussion (as seen below) but I have a reason for keeping it, but I can't say why in the discussion because i am blocked. I also have a bunch of edits that I can easily make that, again, is digging at my brain. And you mean to tell me I can't edit my own sandbox so i can't even test to see if the edits work or not?

I have made enough edits to Jefferson Community College's page on the sandbox and am ready to publish it as well I have found an official SVG version of the logo on the website to use.

Decline reason:

You've been abusing the flexibility afforded to you by the partial block to continue editing and creating article drafts in WP space. The point of being blocked is that you can't edit. I've reinstated the block as a sitewide block for the remainder of its duration. I believe that this block should last its entire duration, and if this editor continues being disruptive after the block expires, it should result in blocks of increasing duration. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 19:30, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Lallint,
I have moved this page to User:Lallint/Sandbox. The alternative was to delete it completely. I understand you can not edit in User space but your block is only for 1 week. Please do not create drafts of articles in Wikipedia project space or future ones will be deleted. Being able to edit in project space isn't meant as a way around your partial block from specific namespaces. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 00:52, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So how do I edit the page then? Wouldn't it be easier to allow me to edit user pages too just not the rest? Cause I can't work on it and I have stuff i want to do Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 01:46, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I would suggest just writing down what you're wanting in a google doc so you have it and then when your partial block expires you can add it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 01:52, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The templates and infobox wouldn't properly show up because docs doesn't vanilla-y support wikipedia templates Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 01:53, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm... you make a good point. I don't really know how to help you with that. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 02:01, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I would assist you by making the changes you want to your sandbox, however I feel that would qualify as editing by proxy and get me in trouble. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:22, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
that'd likely just be annoying because i click publish then realize what to do next right after Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 17:27, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't necessarily mind (I don't mind doing tedious tasks like that) but as I said it would probably be considered editing by proxy which can get me in trouble. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 17:31, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have aspergers and yeah it's on the autism spectrum, I think mines been getting better lately though, with wikipedia it gives me a source of stress for the same reason as working in retail: crappy co-workers! Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 18:02, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And stress helps me be less depressed because it gives stimulation, I've been a lot happier recently, I just went to JCC 2 days ago for the first time that i've ever seen a college in person and I also went to the Flower Library and it's a really relaxing atmosphere, same with JCC (although with the latter it's likely due to covid so less people talking), Watertowns got a lot of nice people too, every time I see somebody I wave and they always wave back and say hi even though we're in a city, it's a perfect balance really, small enough to have kind people and big enough to be on the map and not boring as shit Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 18:05, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes that is true. However you could simply just type the bare template wikitext (so for example if it were an infobox you would type {{infobox person}} with all the parameters). I think you would still be able to use the main Sandbox to test what the infobox would look like since it gets regularly cleared. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 01:58, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps you don't understand that the entire point of being blocked is that you can't edit during that time. It's not intended to be a time for you to find alternate methods of editing articles. An admin was kind enough to give you the flexibility to edit WP: pages for the purpose of participating in RfD discussions for redirects that you created (despite the fact that just about all of those redirects are clearly inappropriate and will obviously be deleted). You abused that flexibility by continuing to create more redirects in WP space, and creating article drafts in WP space. Therefore, I have reinstated the full sitewide block for the remainder of the time that you are blocked, you will no longer be able to edit WP space during this time. Honestly, with the amount of disruption you're causing and the amount of cleanup work you're creating for other editors, if you continue behaving this way you'll eventually be blocked indefinitely. If you want to stay here and edit, you need to limit yourself to productive edits, and stop with all the other crap like Rfd me if u gay. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 19:27, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    "Oh, you had to bring that up?" -Potato Head, 1999 Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 19:33, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Lallint, ScottyWong has a point. Your block was turned into a partial block with blocking all namespaces except WP so you could participate in an RfD. You abused that by making stuff in WP space other than participating in an RfD. Now you are fully blocked again for doing so. I recommend that when your block expires you find some productive edits to do. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:36, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Also, creating redirects as a joke is not constructive at all. If you want to make jokes then please read WP:HUMOR. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:37, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That was a long time ago that I made that redirect, also I did participate in the Rfd and the stuff I did in WP was not vandalism and was constructive so I don't see why that last one is really that important Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 19:39, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Never said your edits were vandalism. You were merely abusing the partial block you were given. If you would like a suggestion on something productive you could do once your block expires, you could help me add to the development section on Slime Rancher (I already have the sources needed, I've just been too lazy to actually get around to doing it). ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:42, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Sure i'd love to do that, see why don't more people take people in like a father and let them help them instead of constantly trying to change them Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 19:43, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Reference 23 has an external link as a title, i suggest making the title the tweets contents, or recreate it using the Automatic Citation maker that you can use in the Visual Editor Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 19:46, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That tool is technically also available in the source editor (i use it a lot since it create the ref for me). I'll take a look at it, but I don't think anything needs to be done. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:48, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Ah a ref error. I'll try and fix it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:49, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I seem to be coming across lots of ref errors now that I never noticed before. How strange. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:54, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Alright sounds good. I currently have it as User:Blaze Wolf/sandbox 2 since I prefer making these kinds of edits in my sandbox first so that any necessary changes can be made without clogging up the article history. I also need to work on Euro Truck Simulator 2 so I can try and get an DYK out of it, but I'm waiting for someone to peer review it so I know what changes need to be made. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:47, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    In real life, most people don't have the time and interest to "take people in like a father" (which kinda sounds a lot like "please be my babysitter"). You're responsible for your own edits, and if you need a father figure to tell you that creating Rfd me if u gay is not productive, then I'd question whether you have the competence required to participate here. Obviously, you have done some productive work here as well. But, even if you do 99% productive work and 1% unproductive vandalism, everyone is going to focus on that 1%. That's human nature. Being productive and doing good work doesn't give you a license to create a bunch of crap that just makes work for other people to clean up. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 21:21, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I knew at the time it wasn't productive and I still do and i'm not doing that anymore, but I'm glad you're fighting WP:PA with WP:PA, shows you're not afraid of me and you're mature enough to not take shit from anyone. Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 22:14, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I haven't seen either of you making any personal attacks. I don't think accusing Scotty of making a personal attack is very appropriate. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 22:22, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I made a personal attack-ish in the proposal thing and he said it sounded like I said please be my babysitter, I was accusing both of us of making personal attacks Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 22:26, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I didn't intend anything as a personal attack. And, you made Rfd me if u gay on January 12th, which was 3 weeks ago. I don't consider 3 weeks "a long time ago", and honestly I'm a bit skeptical that you're going to stop creating these unproductive redirects when your block expires. I hope that you do, because your other contributions are good. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 22:58, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you, and I intend to stop making these redirects once i'm unblocked Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:00, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    And also according to my block info it says I made more redirects while I was unblocked in only the Wikipedia namespace but that's not even true lol those Rfd's are old redirects Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:03, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Technically you did create a redirect however 1, you simply just changed a redirect target and 2, it was constructive. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 23:06, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Nope if you're talking about Wikipedia:NUNI (which you are) I did in fact create that but its a redirect to notability with universities and colleges but the only other redirect for that page was WP:UNIN which does not follow the standard naming conventions (and 100 other fancy words to make you sound smart and you know what you're doing) and is reversed from the usual N first. Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:10, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yep. And also it originally redirected to a non-existant page which is why I said it was constructive. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 23:13, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The partial block was granted with the intention of allowing you to comment at RfD. While you did comment at RfD, you also decided to create article drafts in WP space as well as create redirects in WP space. Regardless of whether or not anyone considers those things to be "productive", they are true. Creating the redirect was clearly against the spirit of the partial unblock, but perhaps you could argue that no one told you not to create redirects, and they were arguably productive. Creating an article draft in WP space is never appropriate, regardless of whether or not you're partially blocked. Either way, you had your opportunity to comment at the open RfDs, now the block has gone back to normal for the remaining duration. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 23:34, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
it was just a sandbox though under the Wikipedia:Sandbox namespace so nobody cared about it or saw it but me meaning it didn't hurt the project in any way whatsoever Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:39, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Obviously someone saw it, otherwise it wouldn't have gotten tagged for speedy deletion. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 00:27, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
How does me creating it originally not redirecting to the right page then changing it to redirect to the right page be any better than just creating it properly from the get-go, it means i have no second thoughts about not vandalizing it? Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:35, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
either way it was still a constructive edit and i made no unconstructive edits during my time being blocked so its obvious I have no intentions of continuing disruptive edits Lallint⟫⟫⟫Talk 23:47, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
