About your RFA
editI noticed that you did not follow all the instructions at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Nominate, therefore your RFA is not properly formatted. In addition, at this point you have not been around Wikipedia long enough for people to get to know you or form an opinion about you. You need to have a positive reputation in the community in order for a RFA to be successful.
I would encourage you to read the material at Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship and Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, hang around Wikipedia and get involved in things like maintenance tasks, and consider an RFA after 1-2 years of constructive activity here. In the meantime, I can delete the malformed RFA page you have created. Would you like me to do that? ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 15:48, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, please.

A caution and an inquiry
editHello Elijah Wilder. I know that Wikipedia can be a difficult place to navigate for new users, but I must caution you that many of your recent edits have been inappropriate. For example, your recent PRODs of Circle jerk (disambiguation) were neither executed correctly, nor did they have a clear basis (it's not clear what you mean by "Inappropriate Definition"), and this edit introduced factual errors (by, for example, replacing "IgM" with "IBM") in a way that is indistinguishable from vandalism. These are things that consume community time, and create real issues for our readers and can result in sanctions if repeated; please be more careful. On a separate note: Have you had any previous accounts on Wikipedia? --Blablubbs (talk) 15:43, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- No, this is my only account. I apologize for my actions. I will try to be more aware of what I am doing. Elijah Wilder (talk) 16:09, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can , contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse. |
How do I become a page reviewer? Elijah Wilder (talk) 18:52, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- You do not have the experience yet, you have only made one edit to main space that hasn't been reverted. Theroadislong (talk) 19:04, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) The New Page Reviewer page contains information about that user right/permission, which is requested at Requests for permissions. I would carefully read the granting guidelines, though – special permissions are for experienced editors with a high quality of edits. TGHL ↗ 🍁
- Hello, Elijah Wilder,
- You are asking for advanced permissions on Wikipedia and you have basically been editing for only 2 days! You might be considered for advanced permissions after months of solid editing but you are only posting Welcome notices. I suggest you take a step back and work on improving articles so you can actually learn about Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Without knowing how Wikipedia operates, you'll never be eligible for any additional rights. Slow down and try to learn about this platform instead of asking to be in charge. Liz Read!

Teahouse host
editI see you have a Teahouse host user box on your user page. There is an actual process involved in becoming a host - see Wikipedia:Teahouse/Host start. I'd recommend getting a little more familiar with Wikipedia before you continue trying to answer questions there. 199.208.172.35 (talk) 17:17, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
- I signed up to be one and it gave me the permissions.
- Elijah Wilder (talk) 17:35, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
- You signed up to be one? Where? You're not on the list. And there are no permissions that come with being a host. 199.208.172.35 (talk) 17:40, 2 December 2022 (UTC)
- You clearly have no idea what you are doing [1] and this [2] please stop! Theroadislong (talk) 19:03, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

Courtesy vanishing
editWell, that didn't even last 24 hours. Please show some consideration for the other editors who have to spend their time handling your requests.
Courtesy vanishing is a one-time deal. Don't expect any further requests to be honored. Cabayi (talk) 10:42, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
- Ok, sorry.

Hi

edit{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:12, 3 January 2023 (UTC)If you are interested in maintaining and improving an English encyclopedia built on verifiability and a neutral point of view, please provide specific examples for edits you'd like to make that are currently prevented by the block. I'll then reduce the block to a partial one preventing further article-unrelated disruption, and you can improve some articles as proposed. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:15, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
This is not a troll account. I just got back in. It was hacked due to my password being cracked. I apologize for the actions my account has done. I have changed my password and will make sure it isn't compromised again. Elijah Wilder (talk) 17:17, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
Decline reason:
CheckUser data makes it seem very unlikely that this is accurate. --Blablubbs (talk) 17:20, 3 January 2023 (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.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.
Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice.
