Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited BraveStarr, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page British (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would ask that you assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not on Talk:The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Your recent rants at the above mentioned talk page are not constructive and are not helpful to further developing the associated article. Please avoid attacking editors and employ the Wikipedia standard rule of assuming good faith. -- Winkelvi 15:09, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you recently removed all content from TVRage, with this edit without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the page's content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 01:08, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This was not necessary. The article redirected to an unrelated article. And I was in the middle of typing a deletion request during your clueless revert. In Correct (talk) 01:24, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What is the problem with TVRage.com being used as a reference? Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 02:55, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please, read the history from the two links. MediaWiki_talk:Spam-whitelist/Archives/2009/11#TVRage.Com and [[1]] I support the blacklist decision. Or has this been reversed which I am unaware of? In Correct (talk) 03:22, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize tvrage.com had been blacklisted. May I suggest mentioning this in your edit summary? "rm blacklisted tvrage.com" or something like that. I was thinking your removals were a "don't like". Thanks for hacking out those tvrage.com refs. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 07:57, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:TAOLTPFO.jpg

[edit]
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:TAOLTPFO.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:40, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know what a sockpuppet is?

[edit]

Regarding the edit at Southeastern Oklahoma State University, I will be happy to discuss the merits of leaving content about sidewalk cracks on the article talk page. However, you have twice referred to me as a sockpuppet. I suggest you read Wikipedia:Sock puppetry before you accuse me of that. To paraphrase The Princess Bride, I don't think that word means what you think it means. Bahooka (talk) 03:47, 9 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Southeastern Oklahoma State University shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Disambiguation hatnotes

[edit]

Hello. Disambiguation hatnotes at the top of articles are there to resolve ambiguity between very similar names or concepts. Per WP:NAMB, if there's no ambiguity, we don't need a hatnote - if the user has arrived at the Marvin the Martian article, its title alone clarifies that the article isn't about the comic-strip human baby (who isn't a Martian), nor to a less obvious extent is it about the Sirius Cybernetics robot (who isn't from Mars).

The hatnote you've added to Marvin (character) is correct, and appreciated, because a reader who's arrived at that article (or is deciding whether to click the link from another page or a Google search result) will not - from its title alone - know whether it refers to the baby, the android or the Martian, and might be in the wrong place. But Marvin the Martian is, I think, unambiguous.

What user navigation situation are you trying to fix here? --McGeddon (talk) 15:25, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am trying to fix the navigation situation with any major character named Marvin. I for some reason remembered the newspaper comic (and starring character) Marvin. I wanted to read the Wiki article about Marvin (Tom Armstrong's character) however I landed on a page about a robot named Marvin. ?! I believe Marvin's (robot) full name (or title) is Marvin, The Paranoid Android. Or perhaps that is the name of the book or TV series the character is based on. I wouldn't know. I have never heard of Marvin (the robot). I am aware that Looney Tunes character is supposed to be named "Marvin the Martian" although I have never heard him referred to as such. It makes much more sense to add the Disambiguation Hatnotes to the relevant pages. And even Martian The Martian's full title reveals him to be a space alien or a Martian, However Marvin Miller's name wouldn't necessarily describe if Marvin Miller is a human or Martian. I guess I still do not understand. ALSO typing Marvin did not lead to a disambiguation page. It SHOULD, as I am completely unfamiliar with Marvin The Paranoid Android. I will paste this onto the talk page. In Correct (talk) 15:38, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:MEALSONWEALSDENTON.PNG

[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:MEALSONWEALSDENTON.PNG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved.  Widr (talk) 05:50, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Widr: I don't think this is a credible legal threat, it sounds like somebody throwing their toys out of the pram if you ask me. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:46, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:No_legal_threats#Perceived_legal_threats advises against "making comments that others may reasonably understand as a legal threat." The only use of the word "credible" in the policy is in reference to retracting the threat.
I don't see any stretching involved in interpreting "I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION" and "legal action will be taken" as legal threats. If In Correct would like to credibly retract the threat we can move on. - SummerPhDv2.0 15:16, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't even think this will even publish if I am blocked from editing anything on Wikipedia, including the ability to make this comment.In Correct (talk) 20:08, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To prevent damage to the project, this policy removes editors who make legal threats on Wikipedia. I never had such intentions, and I still have absolutely no intentions to "damage the project of Wikipedia". Also, my edits that were reverted are not promotional, but rather acceptable according to WP:USCITIES under Geography and Infrastructure. You must not say those things and I request this: Wikipedia:Contact us/Article problem/Factual error (from subject) may be appropriate. Also, posting on the editor with privileges would have nothing based on the uncivil activity from that editor, so the only area I could find to go do the Administrator's Notice Board or whatever it's called. In Correct (talk) 20:08, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, I was unaware that I was undoing every edit by Magnolia. I was trying to figure out which edit of mine was undone and I was trying to proofread the entire article. Before I could post to the talk page, another editor said I started an edit war, that my edits are being disruptive, saying that everything I typed is "promotional", while the article itself still had promotional wording.

Here is the official request for my account to be unblocked. I do not have intentions to cause any disruptive edits to Wikipedia, despite being accused of it. In Correct (talk) 20:15, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You have issued a legal threat. You must unconditionally withdraw it or indicate that your legal action has been entirely resolved. We will not consider unblocking until you do this. Yamla (talk) 20:56, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I Have Unconditionally Withdrawn Already. I have not made any attempts at legal action. There never was a legal action. There was only words said by me under pressure which I should not have said. I do not know what you are talking about. In Correct (talk) 21:30, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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.

AND If I had only remained calm I would not have said anything interpreted as a legal threat. In Correct (talk) 20:47, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I very much perceived this edit summary where you said "If this edit is reverted, then this is proof that I am being personally attacked and legal action will be taken"--as a legal threat. I found your edit summary intimidating because you had issued a warning that you intended to take legal action against anyone who reverted your sloppy unsourced edits to Davis, Oklahoma.
  • With this edit I removed your excessive details about every road and highway running through or around Norman. Please take a moment to read the policy Wikipedia is not a travel guide. In that same edit you linked Turner Falls five times in the same paragraph. Please read this policy which states "generally, a link should appear only once in an article".
  • You reverted this edit where I removed the geo-coordites from the geography section, with the edit summary per WP:USCITIES#Geography. In the guideline it states "if a coordinate (latitude and longitude) is included in the infobox, if there is any, remove any existing article coordinate from this section. There should be only one coordinate relating to the article present".
  • Here you changed the size a photo to 300px, while MOS:IMAGES states "as a general rule, images should not be set to a larger fixed width than 220px". In that same reverted edit, you added back the words "nestled" and "Oklahoma" to the photo caption: "Turner Falls, nestled in the Arbuckle Mountains near Davis, Oklahoma". It's not "nestled" anywhere, and we know it's in Oklahoma because the article is titled "Davis, Oklahoma".
I'm glad Wikipedia policy has little tolerance for outrageous bully behavior. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:25, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Here we go yet again. I have already withdrawn. In Correct (talk)
This is also not true. I might have copied information that somebody else said but I deleted the words entirely.
I have read the information you provide to me about "Wikipedia is not a travel guide". And once again it says ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID. In Correct (talk) 21:38, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As I have said many times before, I was in the middle of proofreading the article and did not know that information was in the article. Re-adding "nestled" was accidental. In Correct (talk) 21:41, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And WHERE have I EVER mentioned Norman, Oklahoma?! In Correct (talk) 21:45, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I see no retraction of the clear legal threats and you will not be unblocked unless you provide a straightforward and unequivocal retraction of the threats you made. This is a bright line rule and we're not going to argue technicalities. Swarm 04:16, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That is unfortunate as I am very confused. How do I retract in the method that you desire? Do I go back and delete the words? Do I cross it out? How do I do that? Like this? In Correct (talk) 04:24, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
A statement here will suffice. Swarm 04:27, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

RETRACTION

[edit]
To Whom It Concerns At Wikipedia, I retract every legal threat and any word that has been identified as a legal threat. In Correct (talk) 04:31, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You might want to stoke out the legal threat above, and also remove the one from your User page. Having a legal threat on your User page is not going to help your cause. It probably won't get you unblocked early, but it will help prevent the next one.TVGarfield (talk) 18:01, 25 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

To Whom It Concerns At Wikipedia, I retract every legal threat and any word that has been identified as a legal threat. I will attempt to remove the words now. If I am unable to do so, I give you permission to do it for me. In Correct (talk) 17:10, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

With the legal threat resolved, accepting unblock per discussion below. 331dot (talk) 22:11, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have deleted the information on my talk page. You will have to delete my about me page. In Correct (talk) 17:18, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The legal threat issue aside, you indicate below that you are retired. What do you intend to do on Wikipedia if unblocked? 331dot (talk) 20:22, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I would like to put that Retired template on my about me page. I want to clear my About Me page, negative words, and every thing else ... and replace it with the Retired Template. I will not edit nor create articles at Wikipedia. The last edit attempt resulted in confusion, and I panicked. I did not know how to email administrators either. But I do not like the other way I handled that terrible situation and I want to be unblocked to put every thing behind me. In Correct (talk) 20:56, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I understand- but if you have no intention of editing, you don't need to be unblocked. Someone else has removed the legal threat from your userpage, so that is gone now. 331dot (talk) 20:58, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I did not say I have no intention of editing. I will still want to edit my about me page one last time. I see no need to block me, even from my own about me page. If the decision to deny my unblock is based on a subsequent retirement (of which reading the Wikipedia:Retiring is a reason to retire!) I would request my account be deleted. In Correct (talk) 21:21, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Accounts cannot be deleted, as all edits must be attributable to someone. You may be permitted a courtesy vanishing if you desire- and I would be willing to unblock you solely to request one. What do you wish to post to your user page? 331dot (talk) 21:38, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If I can request a courtesy vanishing, and have the courtesy vanishing approved, I would want to do that. Until then, if unblocked I want to put the Retirement Template on my about me page. My About Me Page would not have any thing else except for the Retirement Template. In Correct (talk)
Since the legal threat issue has been resolved, I will unblock you to permit you to edit your userpage and request a courtesy vanish. 331dot (talk) 22:11, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
