Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Bruna Papandrea, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 21:52, 13 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add defamatory content to Wikipedia, as you did at Kathryn Campbell, you may be blocked from editing. The material you recently added to this article included a number of factually incorrect negative claims. Please read WP:BLP, and note that you will be blocked if this issue reoccurs.

Dont intimidate me please. I am a new contributor and continue to add useful content as apposed to simply fixing typos. If i ad something that you thibk ia faulty please confirm and i will ad the paper trail of such. Troofbetold (talk) 21:10, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is not how the Wikipedia biography of living persons policy works. Please read and understand it, rather than add incorrect and harmful claims about people. Nick-D (talk) 02:16, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Charles Sobhraj. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 11:43, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violations of Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Nick-D (talk) 02:18, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for adding very serious BLP violations to an article despite the warning above. This indicates a lack of interest in following the BLP policy. Nick-D (talk) 02:21, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
