HE'S A FAKE! HE NEVER EXISTED! The links are all bogus, and the picture is that of Robert Ingersoll. Try reading one of his plays... you can't! Yet bots, users, and admins keep restoring the page without ever checking it's validity!!! 96.2.169.164 (talk) 21:30, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Agustus Montrose. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. !dave 21:18, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 12 hours for persistently making disruptive edits.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:

- I've been blocked simply for pointing out that a fake article is a fake. The admin chose to block me rather than examining the claim. The links are all bogus, and the picture is that of Robert Ingersoll. Try reading one of his plays... you can't! 96.2.169.164 (talk) 21:37, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, I'm the admin who blocked you. You're right, the lack of credible sources does seem suspicious, as well as the fact the original author had only a few edits. I will unblock you for now, but please don't continue to blank the page. Paste {{subst:AFD}} and follow the instructions to nominate the article for deletion.– Gilliam (talk) 21:44, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
- Aye, you were SHOUTING and were blanking the page, which immediately screams disruption. If you followed the correct process, this unfortunately circumstance would not have happened. If you did not know how to do this, then you should have asked someone, on somewhere like the Teahouse. !dave 21:46, 18 December 2017 (UTC)
