User talk:PurelyAtomic

Welcome!

Although some prefer welcoming newcomers with cookies, I find fruit to be a healthier alternative.

Hello, PurelyAtomic, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay. Here are some tips to get you started:

• It's pretty simple: Don't be a dick, remain neutral, cite your sources, and ignore all rules.

• Edit a page by clicking 'Edit this page' or 'Edit' on the top of the page.
• Use the Wikipedia sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.
• Sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username and the date.
• Cite your sources using <ref></ref> tags. For example, type <ref>Example reference. http://www.example.com. Accessed January 1, 1900.</ref> to produce this tag:

• To create an article, use the article wizard.
• Consider joining a WikiProject, such as the Websites or Computing WikiProjects.
• Use two apostrophes for italic text (''italic text''), three apostrophes for bold text ('''bold text'''), five apostrophes for bold and italic text ('''''Bold and italic text'''''), two brackets for an internal link ([[page name]]), two brackets and a pipe (|) for an internal link with different text to be displayed ([[page name|text to be displayed]]), the link, including the http:// prefix, for external links (http://www.example.com), one bracket and a space for an external link with different text to be displayed ([http://www.example.com Text to be displayed]), and two curly brackets for {{templates}}. See this page for more formatting marks.

Grauschtaffen Recording

Sorry about reverting your contribution, but as done with no source, how are we to know that you are not perpertrating a hoax? I tried to research it, but there's nothing on Google about it except what you have done. Chrisrus (talk) 03:20, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

About that, it has only just recently surfaced. The recording was taped by a private scientist who did not belong to any government association. As far as I know, he just recently went through his records and found the tape. I apologize for the lack of current sources. PurelyAtomic (talk) 22:14, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

I see. How did you find out about it/come into possession of the recording of it? Has it been spoken of in any media? Try googling "Grauschtaffen" yourself, let me know if you find anything. Chrisrus (talk) 23:00, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Do you have more than one username? Is this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:72.47.1.173 you? Chrisrus (talk) 03:41, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

This is an obvious hoax, communist monkeyman. You will fail. Chrisrus (talk) 15:06, 23 April 2010 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry case

Your name has been mentioned in connection with a sockpuppetry case. Please refer to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/PurelyAtomic for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to cases before editing the evidence page. « ₣M₣ » 03:05, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used only for vandalism. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. —Animum (talk) 03:10, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

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).

Request reason:

Alright, I admit I did vandalize 2 pages, but that's hardly worth being called a "vandalism only" account. I request that my block time be reduced to 7 days. PurelyAtomic (talk) 03:12, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Given that you've had another username blocked as a vandalism only account, I don't think so, no. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 06:52, 3 July 2010 (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.

This is not a person who just writes "GO METS" or some such on a web page, something forgivable. Many of us have left a joke or two here or there. This guy is different. He was actively trying to perpetrate a hoax and get away with it. One would have to have looked carefully to see it was an obvious hoax. Next time, he may have learned his lesson and figure out how to get one by us. He seems wants to harm the entire project by proving we can be fooled. If he's allowed to edit, who will be checking up on him? How will we ever be able to assume good faith? How can we ever trust him? Chrisrus (talk) 03:29, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

He's not really vandalism only, theoretically. However, I don't feel comfortable unblocking, per above. NativeForeigner ^Talk/_Contribs 03:54, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
