Hello, I'm JJMC89. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. — JJMC89 (T·C) 20:12, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 20:12, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

September 2016

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at 2016 Uri attack. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

Request reason:

Hello there. I'm sorry to have to disagree with any administrative decision but I firmly believe that I do not deserve what I have come to understand as an "infinite" ban. I think it is completely outrageous that I receive an INFINITE ban for the following circumstances: First, I change the wording of the 2016 Uri Attack that describes the perpetrators as "terrorists" to "insurgents" (which better reflects what they are). Next, some racist Indian comes and changes my wording to derogatory and vulgar language targeted towards Pakistanis. Naturally, wanting to silence this troll, I do the mature thing and INITIALLY instead of replying, I simply revert this infantile edit.; however, he reverts the page back to the racist remarks and insults Pakistanis further. I then REGRETTABLY lose my cool SLIGHTLY and tell him to either act mature or stop editing (any insane personal attacks here?). Apparently because I reverted racism too many times, I'm blocked for a while. Then, out of no where like Randy Orton (only even more crazily), I am banned for an "INFINITE" period of time for Cross Wiki Vandalism block (ID #272776). Again, this was over REVERTING racism more than 3 times which unfortunately I didn't know at the time. Besides, after I DID revert 3 times I was warned to not do so, and I didn't do any more after that. I distinctly get the impression that the admin "INeverCry" is what you call "butthurt" (no intention of being rude here) which sadly contradicts the beautiful meaning of his name. I therefore ask you to please unblock me as I only see one mistake in my actions: Getting a bit angry towards a blatant troll and racist.

Decline reason:

You were blocked for personal attacks such as, "I knew the butthurt indians would crawl out of their caves tonight and expose the lies their media tells them." Unfortunately, your personal attacks have continued in this very unblock request. As such, that's as far as my block review goes. You are welcome to request another unblock, but, and I want to be very, very clear here, you need to convince us that you understand personal attacks have no place here and you won't make any more.

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.

Infinite vs indefinite

Note also that your block is indefinite in duration, not necessarily infinite. That is, it can be lifted once we are sure you'll never engage in personal attacks or harassment again, but the block won't just expire. You have to convince us to lift it. --Yamla (talk) 17:41, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
