  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to British Rail Class 801, appears to have been inappropriate, and has been reverted. Please feel free to use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Firstly what you added was not a reference, and secondly it was untrue. David Biddulph (talk) 10:13, 1 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to British Rail Class 323, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Your edit broke the reference citation. David Biddulph (talk) 09:01, 2 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your contributed article, British Rail Class 360/2

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, British Rail Class 360/2. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – British Rail Class 360. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at British Rail Class 360. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Superalbs (talk) 19:32, 15 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at British Rail Class 323, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Your edit was not supported by the cited ref (& was not a minor edit).

Hi Northernrailwaysfan! You created a thread called Do the 320/4s really have a maximum speed of 100mph? at Wikipedia:Teahouse, but it has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days.

British Rail Class 171

Why would we add 2 images (and extra misplaced brackets) before the infobox? You gave no explanation in an edit summary. --David Biddulph (talk) 10:05, 5 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Attention

Stop adding your own pictures to articles in random locations with no explanation, as you did here and here etc. You are messing up pages and templates (e.g. infoboxes).ElshadK (talk) 10:05, 5 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

I have reverted your edit to East Midlands Railway. It was both malformatted and unsourced. You have been warned perviously about unsourced edits. --David Biddulph (talk) 18:45, 10 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to East Midlands Railway, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". This is another thing about which you have been warned previously.

  Hello, I'm Andy Dingley. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, British Rail Class 91, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:59, 16 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to British Rail Class 720/6. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you think that the page should be deleted, please have a look at the following guide:

  Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button   located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. David Biddulph (talk) 17:14, 19 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at British Rail Class 325. David Biddulph (talk) 12:49, 20 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove an Articles for deletion notice or a comment from an AfD discussion, as you did at British Rail Class 720/6. Which part of "Please do not remove or change this AfD message until the discussion has been closed" did you not understand? David Biddulph (talk) 16:02, 22 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at British Rail Class 390. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 10:13, 31 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
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 ~~~~}}.

@Ohnoitsjamie - Unblock me from editing at once please. I can edit if I want to. Once more, and I will block you permanently from editing and leaving messages on my talk page. HA! Northernrailwaysfan (talk) 17:34, 1 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Good to hear. If the behavior resumes upon expiration of this block, the next block will be much longer. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:15, 1 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Your revert to an edit

  You would likely to get blocked from editing without further warning the next time you re-add additional citations for verification template messages, as you did to British Rail Class 323 (I think you can). Redrose57 (talk) 17:32, 8 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Last warning before next block

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at British Rail. Cleaning up your messes is becoming tiresome. Additionally, your West Midlands Group has been deleted per WP:A11 and WP:WEBHOST. Recreating that or creating similar articles will also result in a block. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:07, 8 November 2019 (UTC) @Ohnoitsjamie - Please unblock me at once. You should've read the talk page rules.Reply

Blocked for sockpuppetry

@Reaper Eternal - Unblock me at once please, you know there is a no blocking rule. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 19:23, 8 November 2019 (UTC) I said, unblock me at once. There is a no blocking rule in this talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 11:34, 9 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Nobody is going to unblock you if you persist in making comments like that. If you seriously wish to be unblocked, the procedure has been mentioned above. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:45, 9 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Actually, there is a blocking rule - see WP:BP. Superalbs (talk) 19:42, 8 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Superalbs - Have you read my talk page rules mate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 08:47, 9 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Your self-written "rules" only apply if they have the consensus of the community. You cannot decide who can or cannot be blocked. Put simply: everybody in Wikipedia may be blocked, if there is a good reason to do so. There are no exceptions. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:49, 9 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

UNBLOCK NORTHERNRAILWAYSFAN AT ONCE

I WANT SOMEONE WHO BLOCKED NORTHERNRAILWAYSFAN TO UNBLOCK THIS USER AT ONCE! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 19:18, 8 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

  1. You don't get to make your own talk page rules. The only rules in play here are Wikipedia policies.
  2. As the block message stated, you're now blocked indefinitely for sockpuppettry, along with the other accounts you created. Perhaps you should wait a few years before returning to Wikipedia. I can see that you're passionate about trails and such, but you may not be ready for this project yet. You may also want to read Wikipedia:Guidance_for_younger_editors. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:20, 8 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
This has no effect on your block. That's not how things work here. OhNoitsJamie Talk 19:23, 8 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Please unblock me

Is it okay if I get unblocked please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 15:46, 11 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

You are blocked indefinitely; that means "forever, unless you can convince someone that it's no longer necessary." Simply asking to be unblocked will not be adequate. I suggest you read the guide to appealing blocks. You'll need to address the socking (which looks like a sloppy impersonation attempt), and address your mistaken notion that you can create your own rules on Wikipedia. Furthermore, you'll need to convince us that you have a sufficient level of maturity to edit Wikipedia. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:59, 11 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
This is no longer necessary Ohnoitsjamie, mate. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 18:49, 11 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

I need to be unblocked to create my sandbox

I have decided that I will be unblocked. I now have a sufficient level of maturity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northernrailwaysfan (talkcontribs) 18:21, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Glad to hear it. Let us know how that works out. OhNoitsJamie Talk 18:23, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Ohnoitsjamie - I will try not to do that thing that I was blocked for again. Northernrailwaysfan (talk) 18:26, 12 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

I think I have received this block in error

I am a bit confused. I think I must've received this block in error, I do have a sufficent level of maturity. Can I be unblocked please? (this is no longer necessary) Northernrailwaysfan (talk) 11:29, 23 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

The actions that you have recently taken at Commons are not going to help your case in any way at all. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 20:53, 26 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Talk page access revoked

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. In addition, your ability to edit your talk page has also been revoked.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then submit a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.

Per your harassment of an admin at Commons, and continuing maturity and competence issues, your talk page access has been revoked. Your best way forward would be to wait 6 months (or longer) per WP:STANDARDOFFER, and at that point make an appeal via WP:UTRS where you'll need to thoroughly convince someone you understand why you were blocked and describe how you'll proceed in the future. I'll warn you now that frivolous WP:UTRS requests will greatly extend that mininum 6-month timeframe in the standard offer. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:41, 27 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Ah, already a frivolous UTRS request. I suggest you visit the Law of holes articles. OhNoitsJamie Talk 16:36, 27 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

I'm still a bit confused Ohnoitsjamie, why has Northernrailwaysfan's talk page access been turned off lately? Eastmidlandsrailwayfan (talk) 09:44, 8 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Eastmidlandsrailwayfan: If you wish to attract the attention of Ohnoitsjamie, you need to link to their user page; a template such as {{u|Ohnoitsjamie}} will do this, as I did here. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 09:56, 8 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
As it's been made abundantly clear to you in multiple places, you've been globally blocked for disruption and continuing sockpuppetry. WP:STANDARDOFFER is your only route forward. Questions likee "why has my talk page been turned off lately are either an indication of (1) competence issue or (2) trolling. As such, this is the last time I'll acknowledge them.
