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

Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Bryan Spears. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 14:29, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 2 weeks for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:40, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did that.

Literally took my conversation elsewhere to seek consensus.

And then I get blocked.

Unbelievable. 72.241.189.197 (talk) 03:03, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

{{unblock|reason=I did what you said

Let me get this straight.

You people encourage users to create an account if they have a shared IP.

I do that and I'm blocked for apparently trying to evade being blocked.

Absolutely asinine.

And you blocked me after I stopped making edits and took my conversation elsewhere.

So much for free speech.

You people are pathetic.

Blocks are a preventative measure; they prevent further abuse, not as punishment. Eye snore 03:05, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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.
