- Thank you! I am happy to be here to help in any way I can. By the way, do you know how to add on your profile what you like to read/edit about? Wasabi-The-LoreMaster (talk) 14:16, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Are you referring to userboxes? Joyous! Noise! 14:46, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Yes Wasabi-The-LoreMaster (talk) 15:01, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- The list of already-constructed userboxes is here. The instructions on how to add them to your user page are here. A little further down on that page you'll find help on how to create your own, in case you want to get fancy. Joyous! Noise! 15:08, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

editConstructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit that you made to User talk:94.255.152.53 has been reverted or removed because it was a misuse of a warning or blocking template. Please use the user warnings sandbox for any tests you may want to do, or take a look at our introduction page to learn more about contributing to the encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 22:26, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Were you just testing? If you were, you can use User talk:Sandbox for user warnings. Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 22:27, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- No. I am sorry for my actions. I had simply thought that this user had violated the vandalism rules one too many times. It will not happen again unless I am sure the user has actually severely violated the vandalism rules severely.
- Wasabi-The-LoreMaster (talk) 22:30, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- That's totally fine! We all learn from mistakes. Just note, that it is unnecessary to warn a user too many times. If they are already warned, then leave it. If they weren't warned properly, then you can give them a level 1 or 2 warning, not just a 4im.
- The main reason I reverted your edit because it was somewhat like a threat, "
Stop vandalizing or I will ban you. This is your final warning
", did not seem necessary. First, try to solve the problem calmly, and second, you are not authorized to block others (nor am I, only admins can block). Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 22:37, 23 September 2024 (UTC) - No worries about the mix-up! Mistakes happen to the best of us. Just a little tip: next time, if things get a bit tangled, feel free to drop by my talk page. It's always open for a chat! When things go sideways, it's usually a good idea to chat directly with the folks involved. @Myrealnamm: Thanks for having my back and being so supportive throughout this. Your assistance really means a lot to me, and I appreciate your patience and guidance! 😄 --94.255.152.53 (talk) 22:45, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Oh I didn't know only admins could ban, I thought higher ups could give permission to ban other people to lower ranked people. Wasabi-The-LoreMaster (talk) 21:55, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Callum Jones (footballer, born 2001). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Telfordbuck (talk) 22:36, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- You must have me mixed up with someone else. I did not edit that page at any point. Wasabi-The-LoreMaster (talk) 22:37, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) You did: Special:Diff/1247572632. Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 22:39, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- You did edit it otherwise I wouldn't have known to message you. Telfordbuck (talk) 22:40, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
Take a breath
editAs soon who has only made 34 edits, I strongly recommend that you just take a breath, step back and look at some of the helpful advice provided by Joyous and other users.
You have already been threatening to ban accounts, which you are not able to do as a moderator. But equally, you have been using automated tools to warn users who have not made incorrect edits. The same goes for welcoming users to wikipedia. We have templates for that and with all due respect, the mistakes you are making could then be passed on to new users, causing more problems.
I say this in all good faith as you are clearly keen to help, but it is better that this in done with equipped knowledge rather than receiving multiple warnings after your first few edits. Telfordbuck (talk) 23:05, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- You are right. I took some time to think before i responded to you and realized my actions have been too rash. I am sorry and if I do something like this again, it should warrant a ban. Wasabi-The-LoreMaster (talk) 01:16, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- I note your apology, which is appreciated.
- However, you have since gone on to make edits, for example on Thermoplastic vulcanizates, stating that you were removing opinionated language. This was not the case. It was comparing two types of rubbers, which added value to the article.
- Furthermore, considering that the majority of your edits so far have been fairly disruptive and required cleaning up, it isn't a good look posting on the the Teahouse asking for recognition and people to thank you.
- I would suggest listening to your earlier self when you acknowledged that your actions have been too rash. As you've already received a level 2 warning for disruptive editing, this could quickly progress if you don't take advice when offered in good faith. Telfordbuck (talk) 22:45, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
