December 2019

edit

  Hello, I'm ToBeFree. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:21, 25 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Important notice

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Wikipedians who like Runescape

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Category:Wikipedians who like Runescape requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

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).

Getmefood (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I would like to request for my wikipedia account Getmefood to please be unblocked. I enjoy contributing to wikipedia and not in a malicious way, most of it is to improve articles. I also see this is a way to increase on my vocabulary and improve my reading and editing and typing skills. I wish to continue contributing to wikipedia in the future and hope that my unblock request is accepted :) Many thanks Getmefood (talk) 03:02, 26 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

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. Yamla (talk) 12:28, 26 February 2020 (UTC)Reply


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.

Request reason:

After reading through, I see that I am blocked with an expiration time of indefinite and I cannot create a new wikipedia account and have been IP blocked. I do admit to making multiple accounts on here and understand that disruptive behaviour is not acceptable. I would now like to highlight my previous request to be unblocked, as the rugby league season is about to start up again that will always keep me busy & something which I enjoy contributing to on wikipedia. Updating the histories on clubs, players etc.. is an endless task. I hope that this request can be taken seriously. Getmefood (talk) 11:21, 29 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

That unblock request basically amounts to "I got caught and I'm sorry, now let me edit again", which gives me no confidence that problems won't re-occur. Nick-D (talk) 05:52, 1 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of 2018 London 9s

edit
 

The article 2018 London 9s has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable RL tournament. Fails WP:SIGCOV.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Also:

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 14 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
