[edit] Fourth Warning
This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to List of Clone High minor characters, you will be blocked from editing. TrackFan 01:04, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. --Wafulz 02:23, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] List of Clone High minor characters
Please get some proof before you add clones to the article. Also, try to use edit summaries to explain why you added that clone. Until you do, your edits will continue to be reverted. Thanks. TrackFan 23:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- Why do you not provide any proof? Do you not have any proof to back up your claims? This is all considered as original research and will be removed. TrackFan 13:23, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] My concern about your username (John fogerty man)
Hello, John fogerty man, and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia!
I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
Username consists primarily of the name of a well-known living person (John Fogerty).
I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.
You have several options freely available to you:
- If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
- If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as asking for a "third opinion", or requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Admins usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
- If you decide to just go ahead and change your username, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under the new username: simply request a new name here following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account.
Let me reassure you that my writing here means I don't think your username is grossly, blatantly, or obviously inappropriate; such names get reported straight to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism (WP:AIV), or blocked on sight. This is more a case where opinions might differ, and it would be good to reach some consensus — either here or at WP:RFC/NAME. So I look forward to a friendly discussion, and to enjoying your continued participation on Wikipedia. Thank you again! RJASE1 Talk 01:53, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] RFC discussion of your username (John fogerty man)
Hello, John fogerty man, and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia! Wikipedia has a policy on what usernames editors can use. Unfortunately, concerns have been raised that your username may be incompatible with that policy. You can contribute to the discussion about it here. Alternatively, if you agree that your username may be problematic and are willing to change it, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under a new name. Simply request a new name here following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account. Thank you. -- RJASE1 Talk 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC) RJASE1 Talk 15:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Hello, John fogerty man. While there had been some discussion here about whether your username met Wikipedia policy on what usernames editors can use, the result was to allow it, and that discussion has now been closed. If you would like to see what concerns were raised, you can still find that discussion in the archive. You do not need to change your username. However, if you ever wish to do so, it is possible for you to keep your present contributions history under a new name: simply request a new name here following the guidelines on that page, rather than creating a whole new account. Thank you. -- Ryanpostlethwaite contribs/talk 23:33, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
