Requesting IP Block Exemption
Anne drew/Archives/2017 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Requesting an IP address block exemption, because I prefer to route my home traffic through a VPN service, and having to disable it whenever I want to contribute to Wikipedia is annoying. My contributions show that I am a positive contributor to this community. Thanks, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) 03:17, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
Decline reason:
See WP:IPEXEMPT. Simply preferring to edit anonymously is not a sufficient reason for the exemption; and we only grant this exemption to experienced and trusted users. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇 04:43, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
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.
Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o)! Thank you for your contributions. I am Gilliam and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}}
at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Discover what's going on in the Wikimedia community
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! – Gilliam (talk) 08:23, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks, Gilliam. Appreciate it. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) 17:21, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
A message from Zeph Ellis
Im trying to correct and fix information on my page which is giving false information about myself out - every time i attempt to that false information is posted back - how do i get around this Zeph Ellis (talk) 14:03, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @Zeph Ellis:, I agree that incorrect and uncited information should be removed from Zeph Ellis if no reputable sources can be found as per Wikipedia's policy on Biographies of Living People. I've invited the users who've been reverting your edits to a discussion here. Feel free to add your point of view to the bottom of the COI section (indented with a
:
character and signed with~~~~
). Thanks, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) talk to me! 14:08, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
A message from Tachanka Lord
Listen buddy those notes were more than important and were more true than the ones there before Tachanka Lord (talk) 19:38, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for the message. The article you made this revision on is about a horse-drawn machine-gun, not about any deity. Feel free to submit a new article about Tachanka (god). Also you added "Allah Akbar" to the end of your edit so I'm not so sure it was made in good faith. Thanks, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) 19:43, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
Your username
Im not really sure how I feel about your username. Putting aside the accessibility issues in regards to unusual characters, there appear to be disruptive whitespace characters (a tab?) with in the username. I personally feel this is a disruptive username. Would you be willing to have your account renamed to something less disruptive?—CYBERPOWER (Message) 02:06, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hey there, thanks for the note. I'd prefer to keep my username if it's all the same to you. And nope, no whitespace at all. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) 03:39, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- I rather admire the ingenuity. But I'd appreciate a note on what to call you, in case of talk: page dialogue. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:45, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hey Andy, I've added a message to the top of my talk page and a tooltip in my signature that should address that issue. Thanks, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) ? 15:07, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- I’m not going to force a rename on you, nor will I block you over it, but every device I use renders unusual white space after your username and signature. In any event if you don’t want to rename, then I’ll leave it at that. Happy editing. :-)—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 15:39, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks Cyber, keep it real. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) ? 15:45, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- Your "message" is causing your signature to take up 9 lines on talk pages, which is disruptive. It looks like you are substing a template in your signature? First of all, WP:SIGLEN applies even if you get around the 255 character limit in the preferences panel by using a template. Second, you should be substing your #ifeq statements to avoid including every possible option in wikitext. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 15:56, 28 September 2017 (UTC)- Yea, my bad Ahecht, should be fixed now though. Cheers, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) ? 15:57, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

A message from EatMyBacon
The edits I have done were constructive, and they should not have been undone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EatMyBacon (talk • contribs) 00:39, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hey EatMyBacon, I've reviewed your edits and they appear to be vandalism. When you'd like to contribute to Wikipedia constructively let me know and I'll point you to some helpful resources. All the best, ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡o) ? 00:46, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
