Hello, Blinndsay. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Paine Ellsworth, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:   Introduction to Wikipedia   The five pillars of Wikipedia   Editing tutorial   How to edit a page   Simplified Manual of Style   The basics of Wikicode   How to develop an article   How to create an article   Help pages   What Wikipedia is not

Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:   Do be bold   Do assume good faith   Do be civil   Do keep cool!   Do maintain a neutral point of view   Don't spam   Don't infringe copyright   Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest   Don't commit vandalism   Don't get blocked

If you need further help, you can:   Ask a question

or you can:   Get help at the Teahouse

or even:   Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:   Fight vandalism   Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome   Help contribute to articles

Perform maintenance tasks   Become a member of a project that interests you   Help design new templates

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Sincerely,  OUR Wikipedia (not "mine")! Paine  06:29, 4 June 2016 (UTC)   (Leave me a message)

Test edit?

Hey Blinndsay – was wondering what this edit was all about?  Wikipedian Sign Language Paine  16:11, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

Got your email, Blinndsay, and thank you for your response. Your edit above was incorrect in that it pretty much screwed up my user page. No worries, though, as it's all fixed and back to normal. As to your question, the answer is "yes". I'm not a bot, I don't edit Wikipedia for money, that is, I am not nor do I represent any corporation, company nor any person other than myself. I bleed, laugh and cry just like other people. And you?  Wikipedian Sign Language Paine  04:13, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Mars, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 02:43, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. (A YouTube video doesn't qualify.) NewEnglandYankee (talk) 02:45, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Crash Bandicoot. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 03:13, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Mars. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 03:14, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 5 days for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block 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 ~~~~}}.  - Barek (talk • contribs) - 03:55, 1 July 2016 (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:

User is vandalising new content instead of helping

Decline reason:

One unblock request at a time please. Optimist on the run (talk) 06:36, 1 July 2016 (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.

You wrote at the Mars article that your edit "was vandalised with improvements". Thank you for the laugh, but this encyclopedia requires more seriousness. Cheers, BatteryIncluded (talk) 04:33, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:

User:Barek is a vandal and should have admin revoked

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

• the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
• the block is no longer necessary because you
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Optimist on the run (talk) 06:36, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:

User: Barek blocked my mars edit for little reason he is violating the disruptive editing policy himself, he has vandalized by removing important new information about mars (also crash Bandicoot but I am putting mars first, the crash Bandicoot edit is currently citing unreliable sources such as the media which wikipedia relys to much on.), he also blocked stating lack of sources. I have provided sources .Video evidence is a very reliable source which should be taken into account.

Decline reason:

You're edit warring on Mars to include some crackpot fringe nonsense, sourced to an amateur YouTube video and photos on a private photo site account (both of which are obviously bogus), and you're accusing the very experienced admin Barek of vandalism? You're lucky the block is not indefinite, which it would have been had I been the blocking admin. And if you continue in the same way when the block expires your next block almost certainly will be indefinite. Meanwhile, I've removed your ability to edit this talk page, and I urge you to read and understand the policy pages that others have suggested, especially Wikipedia's sourcing requirements at WP:RS.

I'll leave someone else to review this request, but if you want any chance of succeeding I suggest you drop any accusations of other editors "vandalizing" you work per WP:NPA, read WP:FRINGE and realise that Youtube and personal photo storage sites are not reliable sources. Optimist on the run (talk) 07:09, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

I suggest you to look at WP:Skepticism as I believe this is overruling acting in good faith.I must allege vandalism as I believe that is the case here, I am trying to put new facts from a widely unknown mars mission in the public eye.The video although disputed had strong evidence of flight to mars with good possibility of human flight included.The publisher source is also private once again to try and get this information to be seen so should not be disregarded so quickly as unreliable.With edits to some claims in my original edit I believe we can have better information included in the mars article.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Blinndsay (talk • contribs)

Your personal desire for what to include goes contrary to established Wikipedia policies and guidelines. See Wikipedia policy of verifiability, as well as the content guidelines on reliable sources, fringe theories, and hoaxes.

Feel free to create your own website to attempt to promote the claims, as your own website would be free to establish your own content rules. Most ISPs should be able to assist with hosting your own website. It is not Wikipedia's purpose to promote fringe theories based on fake footage.

By the way, the original copy of that video can be found here: (link). This is the original version prior to it being amateurishly cropped to hide the left edge of each frame where the watermark exists, as well as re-edited to insert claims of it being classified material. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 15:25, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Well spotted! I was pretty sure this was just trolling, but I did my best to AGF. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:36, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lindsay Toms (June 1)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by S0091 was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia.

S0091 (talk) 20:23, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Blinndsay! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! S0091 (talk) 20:23, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

Concern regarding Draft:Lindsay Toms

Hello, Blinndsay. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Lindsay Toms, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 22:08, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Draft:Lindsay Toms

Please do not introduce inappropriate pages, such as Draft:Lindsay Toms, to Wikipedia. Doing so is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been deleted. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

December 2023

Please do not create, maintain or restore hoaxes on Wikipedia. If you are interested to know how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements already in Wikipedia – and, if possible, correct them. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Continued disruption will be met with sanctions, which could include a block from editing. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:05, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
