I am from Transalvania, and hate wikipedians who have nothing else better to do than follow me around wiki-space to see what I am up to ( I should be flattered though!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gayunicorn (talk • contribs) 20:46, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- If you weren't creating these sockpuppets and disrupting a valid AfD or bad-faith-nominating articles for deletion, then I wouldn't know who you were. All you have to do to avoid detection is stay away from the people who you've had interactions with. Precious Roy 20:49, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Welcome
[edit]Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
- Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered <script type="text/javascript"src="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Henrik/js/automod.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></script>vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.
The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!-Andrew c [talk] 21:44, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Alphabet Murders up for deletion
[edit]I noticed that you started and AfD for the article Alphabet Murders. However, you didn't follow the appropriate process. First of all, have you read WP:AFD#Before nominating an AfD? I'm assuming you haven't judging by your deletion reason. You listed The tone of this article is one of praise., which is not a valid reason for deletion. If you have problems with the tone of an article, the obvious solution would be to fix the tone. Next, you did not follow the proper deletion process. Please read WP:AFD#How to list pages for deletion. You did half of step 1 (your edit summary was wrong, but that isn't a big deal). You didn't add and fill out the provided template in step 2. Finally, you didn't do any of step 3. If you have questions about any of this, I'd be glad to help. However, in light of the first point I brought up, you may want to reconsider going through with the AfD.
Finally, when you are adding comments to talk pages or discussion, you need to sign your comments so people can keep track of who is saying what. We do that on wikipedia by typing four tildes at the end of our posts (~~~~). Hope this helps. If you have any questions, feel free to respond here or at my talk page. Thanks.-Andrew c [talk] 21:44, 27 September 2007 (UTC) If you weren't creating these sockpuppets and disrupting a valid AfD or bad-faith-nominating articles for deletion, then I wouldn't know who you were.

- It looks like you are still having issues with your AfD. Do you have any questions about the process? Have you read the links I supplied? I'd be glad to help you.-Andrew c [talk] 22:14, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- It still seems like you need some assistance. First of all, in order to "sign" comments, you need to type four tildes (those little squiggly things, often found next to the #1 key on the keyboard that look like ~~~~) at the end of all your talk page posts. Otherwise, the SineBot will come around and add the unsigned tag at the end of your posts. Next, you have not followed the proper protocol for deletion. I linked to the page above that describes how to do it. See WP:AFD#How to list pages for deletion. The AfD page you created is in the wrong location. You will note that Alphabet Murders (note the capitalization) is for an article that doesn't exist. I'm going to delete that page, and reset the AfD tag at Alphabet murders. Here is what I need you to do. I need you to click the link at the top of the page in the AfD box that says Preloaded debate. Once that page opens, you need to read the instructions at the top and fill out all the info in the edit window. If you have any questions on how to do this, or anything else. Contact me, and I can try to help some more. _Andrew c [talk] 22:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- If this helps, here is the direct link that you need to go to to open the pre-loaded deletion page I mentioned above.-Andrew c [talk] 22:49, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- I just saw what you did with Coven. It appears that you are simply copy and pasting the AfD header from the "Alphabet Murders" article. Pretty please, go to WP:AFD#How to list pages for deletion. You will see step one that says you need to add {{subst:afd1}} to the top of articles. Also, I urge you to seriously read WP:AFD#Before nominating an AfD. It is highly unlikely that coven will be deleted. Starting multiple frivolous AfDs can be seen as disruption. Hope this helps.-Andrew c [talk] 22:53, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- That's strange, because the link just worked for me when I clicked it. Please go to the page Alphabet murders and try to click on the link there that says "Pre-loaded debate" (which can be found towards the bottom of the AfD box). If that doesn't work, you can go to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alphabet murders. Then you need to add {{subst:afd2|pg=Alphabet murders|cat=S|text=}} ~~~~ however, you also need to fill out the "text" field with a detailed rationale for why you think the article goes against wikipedia policies and therefor qualifies for deletion under Wikipedia:Deletion policy. Once you have done that, you need to go here, and then add {{subst:afd3|pg=Alphabet murders}} to the top of the list, and hit save. These are the steps that must be completed after tagging and article in order for it to properly be displayed for others. Again, if you have any questions, please ask (at the bottom of my talk page). The more specific your question, the better. Hope this helps ;)-Andrew c [talk] 23:04, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 22:12, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Your comments are offensive. I request that you redact them. Corvus cornix 23:27, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
I have no intention of attacking your beliefs or your religion, and I would hope to have the same consideration from you. Corvus cornix 23:33, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia is not censored. Voting to delete an article on a film because it has in it is not supported by Wikipedia policy. Corvus cornix 23:42, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
Please read WP:OWN. You do not own your Talk page, and may not bar people from it because you don't like what they have to say. I have already reported you to the Etiquette noticeboard for your offensive comments. Corvus cornix 23:45, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Hello, Gayunicorn. I'm responding to ert at WP:WQA regarding your comments here. I think that it is important that you recognize that Wikipedia exists to cover topics without regard for their religious affiliation. Accordingly, suggesting that an article should be deleted because it is a "glorification if Wicca" or "paganistic" is not a valid reason. I say this to you partly for your own good, as well: the closing admin in that particular AfD will certainly disregard your comments, since they don't make any arguments under Wikipedia policy.
- Besides that, Wikipedia is a world-wide website. Accordingly, the mainstream religion in North America is not relevant to determining whether an article should exist (nor is the mainstream religion anywhere else).
- If you have any questions about this or anything else, I would be pleased to answer them. Sarcasticidealist 23:46, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
- Gayunicorn, please be aware that Wikipedia does not selectively cover topics because of what they are: we are an information source, not a newspaper. Wikipedia is not censored, and we have a neutral point of view policy so that articles are free of bias. This includes your bias against witchcraft, crime, and - our articles should not reflect that. Articles should exist because their subjects are notable, and we intend to cover every imaginable notable topic regardless of how offensive any individual editor may find it.

Wikipedia is not a soapbox
[edit]You have already been warned about this; please stop making attacks, as you have continued to do at [1], [2] and [3]. Both these edits were made after you agreed to stop making attacks on other users and their contributions. Wikipedia is not a soapbox, please stop disrupting Wikipedia to make a point. — iridescent (talk to me!) 01:24, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Block
[edit]You are encouraged to create a new account and contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username.
Alternately, you may request a change in username if you want to keep the contributions from this account. To do so, please follow these directions:
- Add {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
- At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked.
- You will have 24 hours after the unblock to file a request before you may be re-blocked. Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use; do not create the new account then request a name change. For more information, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username.
In many cases (especially if your account has few or no edits), it is much easier to create a new account. You may also edit Wikipedia without creating an account. Due to Wikipedia's mechanism for enforcing name changes, your IP address may be temporarily blocked. Unless you have also been engaging in vandalism or impersonation of another user, we will remove that block as soon as possible.
If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.

Talk page comments
[edit]Have you taken a chance to read Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines? You appear to be abusing talk pages. Use talk pages to discuss how to improve the article. Talk pages are not for generalized discussion on the topic, nor are they a place to voice personal opinions. I'm a little confused by your behavior because you said here "Thanks for the heads up though I will refrain from personal comments in the future." but within 6 minutes of posting that, you went and left personal comments at 2 articles "its this kind of thing that is whats wrong with kids today!! believing in this kind of garbage!! should be deleted.!!" and "this is promoting the spread of evil!!!". Please read the talk page guidelines, and stop with the unproductive, abusive posts. Thanks.-Andrew c [talk] 01:27, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Request reason:
sorry but I was unfamiliar with the rules, and thought I could voice my opinions in these areas, because of what I saw when I looked around wikipedia, thank you
Decline reason:
Strong likelihood of sockpuppetry, doesn't seem to be here to contribute to the project (that last comment in particular is very much frowned upon); if you're serious about this, please take some time to calm down and try again, in a day or two. Thanks. – Luna Santin (talk) 20:54, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
