Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Andrew Breitbart. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:46, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Breitbart News. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. — Newslinger talk 01:45, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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 post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. 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.

The Child[edit]

There is ongoing discussion which as of yet has absolutely no consensus. Do not move the article again, as it is now, you've made a huge mess that required full protection of the article and two admins to untangle the damage. Don't do it again.

Stop icon with clock
You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (The Child (Star Wars)) for a period of 48 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
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 ~~~~}}.  Primefac (talk) 20:12, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
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).

Request reason:

I think that characters should be referred to based on their official name. Grogu should be the name of the page and how he is referred to throughout it. However, I do understand why I was blocked. I thought that it was a mistake that someone had forgotten to change the name to Grogu, so I decided to do it myself. I did not realize there was a debate over this. In the future, I'll be better about this and make sure that it won't happen again. Please unblock me. BazingaFountain42 (talk) 20:24, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Procedural decline only, block is expired. 331dot (talk) 10:59, 2 December 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.

December 2020[edit]

Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Antony Blinken, 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 your 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. Thank you. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 01:35, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Antony Blinken; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 02:06, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Antony Blinken, you may be blocked from editing. [1]wallyfromdilbert (talk) 02:37, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're the one that is engaging in disruptive editing by putting someone as the presumptive nominee when they are the official nominee.BazingaFountain42 (talk) 02:38, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Antony Blinken. What are you doing with this type of edit? That is clear vandalism.wallyfromdilbert (talk) 02:40, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it seems that there was a misunderstanding. You see, until just now, I had a browser extension that changed every instance of "Trump" to "Drumpf", so that was the cause of dispute. I apologize for that.BazingaFountain42 (talk) 02:48, 16 December 2020 (UTC)E[reply]
You are still edit warring against the consensus at WP:BLPN. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 02:51, 16 December 2020 (UTC)\[reply]
Well, you're at war with common sense. "Presumptive nominee" implies that it isn't official, even though it is and has been for weeks. For literally EVERY OTHER ONE of Biden's nominees, it has them as "Nominee", not "Presumptive nominee", there's ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WHY Blinken should be different. Please stop changing it.

Notice of ANI discussion[edit]

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Giraffer munch 15:33, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring without engaging in discussion[edit]

There are several places where articles like Anthony Blinken are being discussed. I repeatedly invited you to participate in the RfC at the BLP Noticeboard, which you never did. You were just brought to ANI yesterday about your edit warring on multiple articles. Please actually contribute to the ongoing discussions. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 20:40, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Also, stop leaving templated warnings on my talk page. If you are not going to engage in a discussion about the article, then do not post on my talk page at all. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 20:42, 16 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, you can be blocked for edit warring even if you don't cross the three revert rule. Please engage in discussion and stop reverting edits. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:06, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Muboshgu Listen, you started edit warring, I'm just following protocol. If you have an issue, take it to the talk page and make sure a consensus is reached before you make any drastic decisions like that. As I've said, my big problem wasn't that you were removing a nomination, though that was a problem, my big issue was that you messed up the formatting. BazingaFountain42 (talk) 18:13, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with your edit at Antony Blinken, however I disagree with you edit at Cabinet of Joe Biden. -- GoodDay (talk) 18:11, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your edit on 117th United States Congress[edit]

Hello, you seem to have just added Sen. Patrick Leahy as the to be President pro tempore of Senate, but there are no laws requiring the senior most Senator to hold the position. It's only a precedent. They are actually elected by other Senators.

Moreover the Senate control wouldn't flip Democratic unless Jon Ossoff, Raphael Warnock & Alex Padilla are certified by Governors thereof and are sworned in. It's already January 19 but Ossoff & Warnock aren't yet certified by Georgia Secretary of State. They need to be certified by Georgia Governor also before swearing in. Thus, Leahy may not get elected as President pro tempore on January 20.

Therefore, I'm going to edit it, to not mention Leahy as the to be President pro tempore. You can always edit it again when he is actually elected to the position. The discussion about the same is at Talk:117th_United_States_Congress#Regarding_President_pro-tempore_of_Senate. Please do take part in this discussion and let us know about your references. Thank you. Cheers! CX Zoom (talk) 18:40, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

March 2021[edit]

Information icon Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. Thanks! ― Tartan357 Talk 17:52, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
