I say "weenie!" on the sandbox and you get this mad? How foolish. Snapdragon0825 (talk) 13:50, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

May 2023[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Nythar. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Wikipedia:Sandbox have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Nythar (💬-🍀) 22:53, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You've got to be kidding. Reported at AIV for vandalizing the sandbox? along with all the other positive contributions? That's a stretch. signed, Willondon (talk) 23:05, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Willondon: So you're saying that edits such as these are acceptable, so long as they edit a word here or there? Nythar (💬-🍀) 23:08, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
(sorry, e/c)
Well, yes. Did you not have access to a sandbox as a kid? signed, Willondon (talk) 23:19, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, they are acceptable, because IT'S THE SANDBOX. You can do whatever you want. (Maybe not as far as that, but what I did certaintly didn't violate the imaginary sandbox guidelines.) Snapdragon0825 (talk) 23:18, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's the freaking sandbox it wasn't harming anyone or anything and was gonna get deleted in an hour. Snapdragon0825 (talk) 22:57, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Nythar (💬-🍀) 23:26, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My advice, Snapdragon0825, don't even show up there to speak. Just take a seat at the back. Unless an admin asks you to respond to something, you can probably let this play out without your involvement. signed, Willondon (talk) 23:53, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the advice, I try to not let situations escalate more than they need to but I have a bad habit of not knowing when not to talk :p I'll just watch and see what happens for now, though last time I checked no one said anything yet. Snapdragon0825 (talk) 00:06, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, looks like it all closed smoothly with the bonus of a suggested improvement, i.e. the personal sandbox. signed, Willondon (talk) 00:39, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How nice. All's well that ends well I suppose. Was a pleasure meeting you and I wish you the best of days. Snapdragon0825 (talk) 00:45, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

July 2023[edit]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Octagon. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 21:11, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I'm sorry if my edits to Octagon were seen as unconstructive :( I wasn't trying to make it look bad but looking back it did seem a bit unprofessional, which is not what Wikipedia should look like.
Next time I make edits and reword things or add additional information, I will be sure that it is up to Wikipedia's standards and I will remember that millions of people will be looking at it as a source of information.
Apologies, and thank you for understanding. Snapdragon0825 (talk) 00:45, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
