Previous warnings and block notices

June 2012

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is invited to contribute, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Aquatic mammal, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

August 2012

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page List of Canadian writers has been reverted.
Your edit here to List of Canadian writers was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://elliottmoglica.blogspot.ca/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 17:55, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Jprg1966. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Complex post-traumatic stress disorder without explaining why.

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Hello, I'm XLinkBot. I wanted to let you know that I removed an external link you added to the page Rashad Evans, because it seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Rickson Gracie. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it.

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Chris Weidman. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion.

Hello, I'm MusikAnimal. I noticed that you recently made an edit to Navigation system that seemed to be a test. Your test worked!

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Navigation system with this edit, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary.

Hello, I'm Doniago. I wanted to let you know that I undid your recent edits to the Final Destination 2 plot summary because they added a significant amount of unneeded detail.

Please stop adding the "linkrot" template to articles with perhaps one or two refs with bare URLs. It would be a lot more helpful if when you encounter those instances, just to fix the one or two problematic citations yourself. Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 22:03, 19 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this computer blocked? There is no problem here. Take a look ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^.

Time to unblock

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).

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

Request reason:

A computer is supposed to be blocked for a reason which is stated. So where is the explanation. 205.189.94.12 (talk) 19:12, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I reviewed the edit that triggered the block and concur with the action. Kuru (talk) 19:55, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

This FLOOR of this BRANCH of the public library has 53 computers. And this BRANCH has 4 STOREYS. So what does a block on this specifc computer achieve when there are FIFTY-TWO others I can see from this chair, plus however many there happen to be on the other 3 STOREYS? Is there any logic to this? 205.189.94.12 (talk) 20:34, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
the block is no longer necessary because you
1. understand what you have been blocked for,
2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
3. will make useful contributions instead.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!

Someone using this IP address, 205.189.94.12, has made edits to List of epidemics that do not conform to our policies and therefore have been reverted. For more information on this, see Wikipedia's policies on vandalism and limits on acceptable additions. If you'd like to experiment with the syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. If you did not do this, you may wish to consider getting a username to avoid confusion with other editors.

You don't have to log in to read or edit pages on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free, requires no personal information, and has many benefits. Without a username, your IP address is used to identify you.

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
