Do not indent

Indenting (having a space or spaces before text) in articles creates a shaded box that is reserved for quotation. So, don't indent. David notMD (talk) 16:20, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you, David notMD. BTW, what is quotation?Sparklestern (talk) 17:58, 19 July 2021 (UTC) Short quotes require quotation marks. There are ways to indent a longish section of text, to indicate that it is a quote (which must also be referenced). See Wikipedia:Quotations, and how to use blockquote. David notMD (talk) 11:19, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

Okay, Thank you David notMD. Sparklestern (talk) 11:32, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

It's not chat

Editor Talk pages are for communicating about edits to articles. David notMD (talk) 00:41, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Don't Mess With Me, Mrs. Nagatoro! moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Don't Mess With Me, Mrs. Nagatoro!, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

KylieTastic, Thanks for the information. The page " Don't Toy With Me, Mrs. Nagatoro" does exist. I'll use the searchbar next time.Sparklestern (talk) 21:11, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

July 2021

Hello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Template:DYK nomination header—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Serols (talk) 15:51, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Please refrain from making test edits to Wikipedia pages, such as the one you made with this edit to Beyblade Burst Rise, even if you intend to fix them later. Your edits have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Ts12rAc^{talk to me} 13:03, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

Barnstars

I saw your post just above mine on teahouse and after looking through your edit history, I've found justifiable reason to award you with the folllowing... LaceyUF (talk) 22:57, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

		The Minor Barnstar
		It is my distinguished pleasure to award you with your very first barnstar and I hope you stick around long enough to earn several more! 😊 LaceyUF (talk) 01:29, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

Thank you sooo much! Sparklestern (talk) 21:08, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for the Minor Barnstar, LaceyUF, and yes, I will try to stick around and work very hard toearn some more Barnstars. I'd love to try and give out a Barnstar to other Wikipedians too.Sparklestern (talk) 21:11, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

Your edit on User:Justiyaya was moved to User talk:Justiyaya

In general, Wikipedians should not edit another's User Page. The talk page is the place for messages from, and discussion with, other editors. For more information see Help:Using talk pages. ––FORMALDUDE^(talk) 04:53, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

@Formaldude, sorry about that. I thought that was Justiyaya's talk page.Sparklestern (talk) 09:18, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

No worries! They did respond to you on their talkpage BTW. ––FORMALDUDE^(talk) 14:45, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Okay. Thanks. Sparklestern (talk) 19:56, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

something to read

Hi, TS222. Please read Wikipedia:Guidance for younger editors and maybe ask an adult you trust to read the "About me" section of your user page to see if they think you would want to change some things. —valereee (talk) 15:50, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 16:03, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Telling other people what to do

Hi Twightlight Sparkle 222,
It takes a long time to figure this place out. While making mistakes when you first start editing is understandable, people who do not yet know how Wikipedia works should really not be giving advice to other users on how Wikipedia works. Please stop instructing people what to do, or what is allowed; right now, you're wrong too often. It's slightly annoying when you incorrectly instruct an experienced user to do something; it's more damaging to incorrectly instruct an inexperienced user to do something. Please try to find another area of Wikipedia to work on for a while until you better understand how Wikipedia works. --Floquenbeam (talk) 19:25, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

My apologies Floquenbeam. I will try to follow your instructions. I have no idea how Wikipedia works, and I must look a bit silly. I'm very sorry. Best, Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 20:01, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

No worries, WP has quite a lot of little complications you have to learn too soon. For example, in discussions we usually indent one more level than the comment we're responding to. If you look at the source for this page, you'll see I added a ":" to your comment, and a "::" to mine. But those kind of things, of which there are many, would be overwhelming if dumped on someone all at once. So you kind of learn by messing up, being told how to fix it, and then messing something else up. So don't worry about looking silly; just avoid trying to use your newfound knowledge to tell other people what to do, and you'll probably be fine. --Floquenbeam (talk) 20:17, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

I don't understand. Which comment did you add ":"/"::" to and why? Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 20:21, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

You have to look at this discussion in edit mode to see the colons. They're code. On the actual page you just see the indentations the code makes. Look for them in edit mode now, please. And why on earth did you remove other kinds of code (which I presume you did not understand) from Drmies's page here? Please leave stuff alone if you don't know what it's for. If you make an edit like that again, I will regard it as pure vandalism, and you may be blocked from editing in consequence. Bishonen | tålk 21:03, 23 August 2021 (UTC).

Look what I did here: ("diff"). And I agree with Bishonen that your edit on Drmies' talk page is hard to understand as a good faith mistake of some kind. What were you trying to do? --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:18, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

If you're confused about reply indentations, feel free to check out my sandbox. You can even edit it and mess around to get the hang of using indentations when replying, if you'd like. ––𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗗𝘂𝗱𝗲 talk 22:28, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Sorry about that Bishonen. I thought Drmies wouldn't need the mail anymore, so I removed it. Though I should've asked him first. I'll apologize to Drmies. And thank you FormalDude. Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 13:24, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

?You removed Drmies's archiving code because you thought he wouldn't need "the mail" any more? It had nothing to do with mail, and where did you in any case get the notion Drmies didn't need mail? Anyway, just as long as you stop removing (or for that matter adding) things you don't understand, we're all good. Did you try to use the colon code in this discussion? It doesn't look like it. I have added colons for you. Bishonen | tålk 15:28, 24 August 2021 (UTC).

Sorry Bishonen. I'll try to be more careful with editing next time. Are you going to block me now? Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 17:35, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

No, certainly not. Fine use of colons there! But please don't start a new line for your signature; it loses the colons, and looks ungainly. I've fixed it for you. Bishonen | tålk 20:03, 24 August 2021 (UTC).

Okay, thank you Bishonen. Thank you FormalDude. Thank you Floquenbeam. Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 20:51, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

August 2021

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.

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 ~~~~}}.  Floquenbeam (talk) 21:08, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

You appear unwilling or unable to understand clear warnings from other people. Your recent move of someone else's userpage is the final straw. It's become clear to me that this is trolling rather than incompetence, but even if it's incompetence, you're wasting too much time, and not listening to anyone. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:09, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

I'm sorry and I will try to be more attentive. Please unblock me, I won't mess around anymore. Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 21:15, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

No. And for what it's worth, I strongly recommend against a "last chance" unblock by another admin. We're being played. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:17, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

I understand. I will keep away from things I don't understand and stop my nonsense. Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 21:20, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

I am blocked

To @Floquenbeam,

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).

Twilight Sparkle 222 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

I understand what I did wrong, making so many disruptive edits even when I was warned. I understand that what I did harmed this project called Wikipedia. It was wrong, and you had every right to block me and you also still have every right to keep my IP adress and my account blocked indefinitely.

Decline reason:

Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 16:56, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

---

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.

Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 14:37, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

I understand. Keep me blocked.

I'm now leaving

I am leaving Wikipedia, because I know I am damaging the project. I am wasting time, and I have done multiple things wrong.

For example, I accidentally created another account for another wiki. I had no idea that I could use just one account for all wikis. I later learned that this was called evasion. I had done the wrong thing, and I couldn't just delete the accounts I created.

I also kept making invalid edits. People kept telling me that I should try to be careful, and that I'll be blocked if I don't stop. But I kept making invalid edits, and now I'm blocked.

And lastly, I didn't listen to any other user. I was very stubborn, not listening to anyone, and destroying the wiki. I also destroyed the Simple wiki. I edited there instead so I would be able to edit again, but then Floquenbeam found out and told another user. And @Floquenbeam: This edit is not to try to get unblocked, because I know that I deserve this punishment.

I am also leaving every other wiki because I will get blocked there as well and I might ruin them as well. Twilight Sparkle 222 (talk) 20:52, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

September 2021

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for wasting time on talk page. 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.  Floquenbeam (talk) 20:53, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
