Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Cynthia Tucker appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. AUTiger » talk 05:44, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

My sincere apologies. Think I cocked up a bit with a reversion there and blamed you for someone else's edit. Sorry Andy Dingley (talk) 15:41, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

This came out here. (I nearly blamed you, too.) TREKphiler ^{hit me ♠} 16:24, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Women on Waves

Does this group describe themselves somewhere as "pro-abortion"? I was wondering why you changed the link to read as "pro-abortion" although it links to "pro-choice."

CrossoverManiac (talk) 03:35, 7 January 2010 (UTC)Terms like 'pro-life', 'pro-choice', 'anti-choice', 'pro-death' are nothing but 1984-style Newspeak designed to either invoke a feeling of benevolence for one side (pro-choice and pro-life) and invoke negative emotions directed at the other (anti-abortion, anti-life, pro-death). The issue is abortion: sides are either pro-abortion and anti-abortion. There are those who are anti-abortion who are pro-death penalty, so are they pro-life. And there are those who are pro-abortion who are against school choice or people choosing to own firearms, so these people can't be pro-choice. The term anti-abortion and pro-abortion are the most accurate terms that can be used for both sides of the debate. Anything else is focus-group driven buzz words.

I see that we're at a disagreement on which term should be used in the article. I'm going to open a discussion on the talk page of the article. Feel free to contribute your ideas. Joyous! | Talk 03:40, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Denniss. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions to Carlos Latuff because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Denniss (talk) 04:54, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Carlos Latuff. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Denniss (talk) 05:07, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, as you did with this edit to Carlos Latuff. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 05:27, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Enough with you. Wikipedia is not a forum that allows to to add your negative opinions to a living person. If you are not here to edit constructively, your account will be blocked for a long period. Tbhotch.^™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 05:38, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Another example of liberal "supporting" free speech, you hypocrite.

Carl Benjamin

Hello. Per WP:BLPCAT and WP:CATDEF, categories will need to be supported by reliable sources, and should only be used for defining traits. The article we have on Carl Benjamindoesn't explain that he is an atheist, nor does it explain why this is biographically important. This will need to be supported first. Afterwords, a category could be added. The place to discuss this further is the article's talk page. Thanks. Grayfell (talk) 02:22, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

Carl Benjamin, on his own Youtube channel, stating that he is an atheist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2B90w9EogQ --CrossoverManiac (talk) 14:35, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

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: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Acroterion (talk) 03:38, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

This is an indefinite block in the simple sense of an indefinite term. If you can make a convincing unblock request that addresses your recent grossly inappropriate conduct, then a way forward under a topic ban encompassing biographies and U.S. politics could be found. But right now, you are not participating in a manner that advances the encyclopedia. Acroterion (talk) 03:47, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
