Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

Currently, you are editing without a username. You can continue to do so, as you are not required to log in to Wikipedia to read and edit articles; however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 74.140.190.187). Logging in does not require any personal details, and there are many other benefits for logging in.

When you edit pages:

  • Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
  • Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
  • Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such content or editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. For now, if you are stuck, you can click the edit this page tab above, type {{helpme}} in the edit box, and then click Save Page; an experienced Wikipedian will be around shortly to answer any questions you may have. Also feel free to ask a question on my talk page. I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia. Will (Talk - contribs) 07:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Contents

Please remain civil in talk pages

With regards to your comments on User talk:AntiVandalBot: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Will (Talk - contribs) 07:30, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to make personal attacks on other people as you did at User talk:Will Pittenger, you will be blocked for disruption. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Thank you. Will (Talk - contribs) 07:35, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

I saw no question. Just a demand that made no sense. Will (Talk - contribs) 07:38, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Please sign your talk page posts

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! Will (Talk - contribs) 07:38, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Signing posts is very important. It allows us to know who posted. Otherwise, we have to check the history of a page to get to your talk page so we can reply. Will (Talk - contribs) 07:47, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks like you signed to me. Will (Talk - contribs) 08:08, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Forging signatures

DO NOT post an attack against yourself and forge the signature to make it appear as if another editor committed the offense. --Kinu t/c 08:28, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Blocked

I've blocked you for 24 hours. Things like this and then this are simply not acceptable. When the block expires, please try to engage in some constructive discussion rather than attacking other editors. Grandmasterka 08:29, 10 January 2007 (UTC) And, of course, this. Grandmasterka 09:52, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

You cant do that. You didn't even warn me. 74.140.190.187 08:41, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
You were warned, a few sections above. Grandmasterka 09:13, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

This blocked user (block log | autoblocks | rangeblocks | unblock | contribs | deleted contribs) has asked to be unblocked, but an administrator has reviewed and declined this request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock request while you are blocked.

Request reason: "I was never warned. Shouldn't I be warned? Isn't there a policy or something that makes warnings necesary?"

Decline reason: "You WERE warned and your actions after your block on this talk page don't show any signs of improvement. Therefore, I've extended the block to 1 week. -- Metros232 14:14, 10 January 2007 (UTC)"

Please make any further unblock requests by using the {{unblock}} template. However, abuse of the template may result in your talk page being protected.

Please stop

Please do not target one or more user's pages or talk pages for abuse or insults, unwarranted doctoring or blanking, as you did with User:Michaelsanders. It can be seen as vandalism and may get you blocked from editing Wikipedia. Dave6 06:54, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

You have been temporarily blocked from editing for disrupting Wikipedia by making personal attacks. If you wish to make useful contributions, you are welcome to come back after the block expires. ViridaeTalk 11:53, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
