[edit] George W. Bush
Please do not blank entire sections as you did on George W. Bush. If you believe there is a neutrality problem, please edit the section to correct that problem or leave a note on the talk page so that others may address the problem. From my perspective, the section is properly sourced and meets the requirements of WP:NPOV, WP:RS, and WP:V. Alternate opinions could/should be included if they are not already, but simply blanking the sections creates more of a neutrality issue than keeping it. - auburnpilot talk 22:37, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Uh, yeah
Hi, you put a message on the wrong place, it's supposed to be on my talk page. Not my user page. —BoL 02:49, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] December 2007
Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to George W. Bush, you will be blocked from editing. —BoL 02:51, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Username
You are encouraged to create a new account and contribute to Wikipedia under an appropriate username. Our username policy provides guidance on selecting your username.
Alternately, you may request a change in username if you want to keep the contributions from this account. To do so, please follow these directions:
- Add {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. This is possible because even when you are blocked, you can still edit your own talk page.
- At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked.
- You will have 24 hours after the unblock to file a request before you may be re-blocked. Please note, you may only request a name that is not already in use; do not create the new account then request a name change. For more information, please visit Wikipedia:Changing username.
In many cases (especially if your account has few or no edits), it is much easier to create a new account. You may also edit Wikipedia without creating an account. Due to Wikipedia's mechanism for enforcing name changes, your IP address may be temporarily blocked. Unless you have also been engaging in vandalism or impersonation of another user, we will remove that block as soon as possible.
If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below or emailing the administrator who blocked you.jj137 ♠ 02:53, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

- If my username is such a problem, why wasn't anything said to me about it back on April 30, 2006?--Repeal 16-17 (talk) 03:38, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- Even though I like my current username, I'm willing to change it so as to come into compliance. May I be unblocked so that I can formally request the change. If not, give me an alternative so I can make the change. I'd rather not have to make a new account.--Repeal 16-17 (talk) 05:55, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- Post your request here and I'll make the request for you. Wikipedia:Changing username should tell you what you need to provide. NoSeptember 06:07, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

- Reason: So I will be unblocked.
Your name has been changed. Try to edit another page to see if you are blocked. NoSeptember 06:33, 31 December 2007 (UTC) I see you can edit.
Proceed cautiously when making major changes to major articles that are heavily edited, what is there is often the result of much discussion about what should be there. I have seen you explain your edits to other pages and engage in talk page discussion. so you are on the right track. Blanking a section like that was not a good idea, and once your header change was reverted, you should have stuck to the talk page to discuss instead of reverting back (see 3RR). Live and learn, and remember that there is no deadline to getting things right. NoSeptember 06:49, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- I have seen the light!!! Just kidding, but I will be careful around heavily edited articles. Thank You. --SMP0328 (talk) 07:00, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
