What you can do, and what you can't

You may
Edit this page;
Redesign it;
Flesh it out;
Steal my design (talk or user);
You may not
Blank it;
Vandalise - use the sandbox;
Attack me;

Me

Hi, I'm Sceptre. You can call me Will. I'm 15, and I was born on March 3, 1991. Here's a picture of me taken last July, and here's some music I like. The reason you see these kinds of designs on my page is because I can't stand ugliness on my userpage. Basically, I like nice soft pastel-like colors. No Dulux please. You may actually see me sometimes redesigning other people's userpages for no reason. If you like what I do, thank me on my talk page.

There are various ways to contact me. I prefer the following:

Wikipedia

I'm an admin of Wikipedia, and I normally revert vandalism, block users, close AfD discussions and delete articles. I'll be able to do most admin tasks, so ask me if you want one doing. Hell, you can view my admin logs to see what I've been up to.

Revert rule

Any user can reverse any action of mine, and if it's an administrative action, I would prefer notice afterwards. If you'd like to contest any of my actions apart from blocks, explain your reasons why the action should be reversed on my talk page. For blocks, email me.

AFD

Please remember that AFD is a discussion, not a vote. I'm using my best judgement on closing discussions on which there is a weak consensus (60-70%). If you honestly think I've closed the AFD the wrong way, then contest it on my talk page.

Personal attacks

I frown upon personal attacks, especially homophobia. I'm not gay myself, but a few prominent users have identified themselves as gay, and any attack on homosexuality will get you a final warning from me. Attack me, you're blocked. No questions asked. Users have a right to edit without harrassment and attacks.

Three revert rule

I enforce this policy a lot. If you think you've been unfairly blocked, tell me why politely. We make mistakes, after all. In reality, I'm a fan of the one revert rule, and I support the idea of curtailing admin wheel warring.

If I blocked you...

I blocked you for a reason. Email me for an unblock, telling me your username/IP, and the reason you should be unblocked. Calling me gay/fag is not funny, and it will warrant you a longer block. You won't get unblocked if you attack my age either.

On other Wikis

Dispute resolution

I would mediate for the cabal, if it existed. I'll mediate some cases there, but I won't mediate on my talk page.

Pictures of the Day

Featured picture of the day

Valère Basilica
The Valère Basilica is a fortified Catholic church in Sion, in the Swiss canton of Valais. It is situated on a hill at an altitude of 615 metres (2,018 ft), and faces Tourbillon Castle located on the opposite hill. The first parts of the building were constructed around 1100, with numerous additions over the subsequent centuries. It was designated a minor basilica in 1987. The site is a listed as a Swiss heritage site of national significance, which includes the surrounding hill due to the large number of protected plant and animal species present there. This photograph shows the Valère Basilica in February 2021, with the Haut de Cry, a 2,969-metre (9,741 ft) peak of the Bernese Alps, in the background.Photograph credit: Christian David

Tip of the day

Citation footnotes

Use the <ref> tag to add references to your articles presented as footnotes. This tag is easy and convenient because it allows you to cite your sources within your text and have them automatically numbered and added to your References section at the end of the article. To cite a source, simply type the <ref> tag after the statement the reference is for.

For example: Haliburton park is the largest park in the world.<ref>Bill Harton (2005). http://www.linkhere.com. Retrieved March 3, 2005.</ref> Then, at the end of your article, add the following template to include all of the citations in your article: {{Reflist}} directly under the References or Notes section title.
