editHello, I'm Sergecross73. I noticed that you recently removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

- If this is about me removing Bowsette from the see also page in the Mario character page, It's because she's not exactly an official character, and I just don't like her existence. She weirds me out. Sure, when I younger It did'nt bother me too much. But now, I wake up knowing that a dominatrix gender-bent Bowser fan character exists. Like, why??? It's like how Sonic fans search up sonic the hedgehog and are met with questionableart from DeviantArt. And I don't exactly see a problem with me replacing the Bowsette link with a Donkey Kong link in the See also page. iT'S NOT LIKE I deleted the entire Bowsette page. SuperWario64 (talk) 12:47, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, it's about you repeatedly removing content without explanation. And your explanation isn't helping now either. You can't just delete things because you personally don't like them, or they "weird you out". And the entry made it very clear that Bowsette was not an official character. She was not part of the list, she was just a footnote at the bottom of the article in the "see also" section. There's nothing wrong with that. Sergecross73 msg me 13:45, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Well, as I said before, I don't see anything wrong with me removing Bowsette FROM THERE. It's not like I removed her entire Wikipedia page. SuperWario64 (talk) 14:10, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- okay lemme rephrase. Not remove it, but rather just replace it with a Donkey Kong link. SuperWario64 (talk) 14:15, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- No one is accusing you of deleting her page, so that's irrelevant to the discussion. The problem is that you don't have a good reason for removing her from the bottom of the list. You not liking the character is not a good reason. You not liking what fandoms do with making up characters is not a good reason. Sergecross73 msg me 14:15, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- I never said anyone was accusing me? What?? I meant that removing a link isn't the same as removing the entire wikipedia page about Bowsette. SuperWario64 (talk) 14:19, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- I'm saying that doesn't matter. I don't care that you didn't attempt to delete her entire article. That's not relevant to the problem at hand - you deleting valid content from an article without valid reasoning. Sergecross73 msg me 14:28, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Whatever, man. SuperWario64 (talk) 14:30, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Final warning
editIn addition to the problems above, if you make this edit again, your account is going to be blocked from editing.
That's is not what disambiguation pages are for. The only things that should be on there are things that are either exactly "Turtle" or extremely similar. They may be a fictional turtles, but names like Bowser, Churchill, and Koopa Troopa are not remotely similar to the word "Turtle", so they do not belong there. It is not just a list of fictional turtles. Stop adding this immediately. Sergecross73 msg me 14:33, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- whatever man. SuperWario64 (talk) 14:34, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Final warning for adding unsourced content as well. All added content needs sourcing. See WP:REFB if you need help on how. Sergecross73 msg me 14:39, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
Blocked
editYour account is blocked indefinitely. I will considering unblocking if you demonstrate that you understand the reasons you were blocked, and promise to stop doing so moving forward. This includes:
- What items do/don't belong on WP:DISAMBIGUATION pages.
- Explaining your edits through edit summaries.
- Using reliable sources to verify content.
If not, your account will remain blocked. Feel free to ask questions if you have them. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 17:14, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- What?! What did I do this time?! SuperWario64 (talk) 17:51, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- What did I do wrong? I didn't delete anything! I thought we resolved the whole Bowsette thing. I won't delete any more sources. SuperWario64 (talk) 17:59, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- You repeatedly re-added unsourced content right after I warned you not to. Sergecross73 msg me 18:02, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- You mean I didn't I didn't add any sources? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:04, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- If that's the case, where am I supposed to put them? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:05, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- I didn't see you say that. I must have missed it when you mentioned it. SuperWario64 (talk) 18:06, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Are you gonna respond anytime soon. SuperWario64 (talk) 18:10, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Okay nevermind. I read that link you wanted me to see. If I can source things, then can i have my account unblocked? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:12, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Please read WP:REFB for some beginners instructions on adding references. Like I said, if you can answer those 3 items listed above satisfactorily, you may be unblocked. But you're making too many bad edits in too many places as is. You need to fix these things before continuing. Sergecross73 msg me 18:19, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- How were those edits bad? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:21, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:23, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Which edits are you not understanding why they were bad? Sergecross73 msg me 18:27, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- You mean the Sweet Home Alabama wiki page SuperWario64 (talk) 18:28, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Was that one bad? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:30, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Didn't you say If you unblocked me, I could fix them and add sources? SuperWario64 (talk) 18:32, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello? I'll fix them. SuperWario64 (talk) 18:33, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Wikipedia isn't a chat room, so don't expect people to respond immediately. That said, we already said that your edits failed to include any sources and are regarded as original research. Regarding Time for Timer, we advise against adding lists of references in popular culture even if you provided a source, because it falls under trivia and isn't appropriate for encyclopedic articles. For Sweet Home Alabama you kept adding that it's a meme used to joke about incest. According to whom? Not saying it's not true, but even if it was, do you think it's notable enough (let alone appropriate) to mention in an encyclopedic article? Aside from that, I find it ironic you take issue with Bowsette but want to keep reference to incest jokes. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 18:35, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Well, CAN I get unblocked at least? I won't make the same mistakes again. Honest. And as for the Sweet Home Alabama jokes, the reason I add it is that they're not too over the top and they're actually funny when executed right. I don't like Bowsette because she just feels out of place in Mario. Even if she's fanmade. SuperWario64 (talk) 18:45, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- First, I'm not an admin so I can't unblock even if I wanted, so this is just my own advice. Your preference of Bowsette versus incest jokes still boil down to WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Difference is Bowsette is extensively covered by reliable sources and has established notability, while the incest jokes are not. That's one thing you must overcome. Next, adding unsourced information is one thing, but the main issue I take is that you continued to re-add them multiple times after you were reverted. This is edit warring and is disruptive behavior. You must discuss on the articles' talk pages and build consensus instead of trying to force your edits back in. If you can understand these in addition to the points Serge has outlined, you would build a better case for an unblock. --ThomasO1989 (talk) 18:57, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- I thought someone was messing with me. I didn't know it was the same guy. SuperWario64 (talk) 19:10, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Thomas is correct - think of this talk page more like emails. You don't always get an instant reply. As for the rest, you've got the order mixed. First you need to demonstrate that you understand how to edit properly in regards to the three main points I listed above. If you can do that, then you may be able to be unblocked. There's no need to fix any of your bad edits - other editors have already fixed your mistakes. But that's part of the problem - we need to get you to the point t where you're not making mistakes all the time before we could unblock you. Sergecross73 msg me 19:08, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Okay.
- 1. I won't add names like Bowser or Churchill.
- 2. I'll add summaries to my edits, so people can have a better understanding.
- 3. And I'll add sources to my edits as well. SuperWario64 (talk) 19:14, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- That's a good start. I need you to show you understand how to add sources though. Please add a source to the sentence below. See WP:VG/S for a list of acceptable sources. Sergecross73 msg me 19:44, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

- Super Mario Odyssey is a video game for the Nintendo Switch.
- That example doesn't follow WP:REFB instructions, nor is that source usable per WP:VG/S. Sergecross73 msg me 20:40, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- could you give me an example SuperWario64 (talk) 21:09, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
- Y'know. I'm leaving Wikipedia. It takes a century just for someone to reply. i KNOW YOU MENTIONED IT DOENS'T WORK LIKE CHAT ROOMS, but it's kind of annoying when you're waiting for a response from someone. I had a bit bit of fun editing those pages, and you guys kind of sucked the fun out. I'm gonna move to TV Tropes, those guys seem fun at least. See ya. SuperWario64 (talk) 02:57, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
- I gave you everything you needed to know with linking you to WP:REFB and WP:VG/S. You should have used your time waiting to read them and try to learn it for yourself. The problem is that you don't want to put the time in to learn how the website work, you just want to make careless, sloppy edits that everyone else has to clean up for you. This is why you are blocked. 13:20, 5 August 2023 (UTC) Sergecross73 msg me 13:20, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
