File:Film Poster for Leaving Neverland.jpg

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Topic ban and 1RR restriction

As per Special:Diff/886453975 and Special:Diff/886454446, you are now under an indefinite WP:TOPICBAN on subject areas related to Michael Jackson, broadly construed. That includes related articles and talk pages. You are further placed under a WP:1RR restriction which applies to all other articles. This may be appealed no sooner than 6 months from this date. Appeals are more likely to be successful if you demonstrate a pattern of conflict-free editing in unrelated articles. --Yamla (talk) 11:03, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Awardmaniac: Be careful. Unless I'm getting the timestamps wrong, I think these two edits violated your topic ban.[1][2] They came shortly after your formal notification on your talk page, so I will assume good faith that you hadn't yet read your talk page.

what does a topic ban mean. What can and cant i do? Awardmaniac (talk) 18:25, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You're not allowed to edit any article or talk page related to Michael Jackson, broadly construed. You are also not allowed to revert more than once within a 24-hour period. A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 18:28, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Whats "broadly construed"?. Does it mean I cant edit any Michael related article in any way shape or form? For what? I have not done anything wrong since my block ended. Awardmaniac (talk) 18:32, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it means you can't edit any Michael Jackson related article in any shape or form. As for why, I'm not the one who implemented it. I'm just trying to explain what your topic ban means. A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 18:38, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A Quest For Knowledge is correct. The following three edits unambiguously violated your topic ban: [3] [4] [5]. By all rights, you should have been blocked as soon as you performed the first of these edits, but I'm going to extend good faith to you and assume you didn't realise. Note that you won't get any more warnings. If you have questions about this topic ban and 1RR restriction, please ask before you make any further edits. --Yamla (talk) 19:28, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'll also strongly suggest you read what we've linked you to. For example, WP:TOPICBAN explains topic bans. WP:1RR explains your 1RR restriction. --Yamla (talk) 19:31, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So I cant appeal to get unbanned? Awardmaniac (talk) 21:02, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This has already been answered at Special:Diff/886453975. You absolutely can, in six months. As noted at Special:Diff/886454992, that request is more likely to be successful if you demonstrate a pattern of conflict-free editing in unrelated articles. --Yamla (talk) 21:14, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ANI notice

I've reported you at ANI here for deliberately going against your topic ban. That's asking for trouble. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 02:56, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon with clock
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48h for topic ban violation. 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 ~~~~}}.  User:Ymblanter (talk) 07:49, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Awardmaniac (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I want my topic ban removed. I been good for six months now and have been editing with out any problems. I dont see no reason why I still should be topic banned. People learn from there mistakes.

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:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=I want my topic ban removed. I been good for six months now and have been editing with out any problems. I dont see no reason why I still should be topic banned. People learn from there mistakes. |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=I want my topic ban removed. I been good for six months now and have been editing with out any problems. I dont see no reason why I still should be topic banned. People learn from there mistakes. |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=I want my topic ban removed. I been good for six months now and have been editing with out any problems. I dont see no reason why I still should be topic banned. People learn from there mistakes. |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
