Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages to Wikipedia, as doing so is not in accordance with our policies. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read Wikipedia:Your first article; you might also consider using the Article Wizard. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. NeilN ^{talk to me} 01:58, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add defamatory content to Wikipedia, as you did to Auburn, Indiana, especially if it involves living persons. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 02:31, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Donner60. An edit you recently made to Auburn, Indiana seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 03:20, 13 February 2017 (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 why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock 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 ~~~~}}.  NeilN ^{talk to me} 03:22, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
