Holyhead Market Hall moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Holyhead Market Hall, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Loksmythe (talk) 13:41, 8 September 2020 (UTC) I was not aware that draftspace existed, thanks for pointing it out. I was going to go back after work to expand and reference the article and will do so but in draftspace :-) Sirhissofloxley (talk) 14:59, 8 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Robby.is.on. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Danny Murphy (footballer, born 1977), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Robby.is.on (talk) 08:05, 30 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of File:MK Dons WFC vs Watford FC Ladies.jpg

The file File:MK Dons WFC vs Watford FC Ladies.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

  Thank you for your contributions to Talk:Ronnie Woo Woo, but we are trying to write an encyclopedia here, so please keep your edits factual and neutral. Our readers are looking for serious articles and will not find joke edits amusing. Remember that Wikipedia is a widely used reference tool, so we have to take what we do here seriously. If you'd like to experiment with editing, use your sandbox instead. Thank you. tyler mageetalk 22:27, 8 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I totally understand, as you don't. This is why a joke article like this shouldn't be on here. Grow up, I've been on here editing properly longer than you have and will be on her longer than you will, despite people like you trying to make it silly.

February 2022

  Hi Sirhissofloxley! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of an article several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Jalen Folf (talk) 18:32, 27 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I've backed down. Not worth getting banned for trying to make Wikipedia decent Sirhissofloxley (talk) 18:34, 27 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Per the final warning here, and your return to incivility in your edit summaries here:[1], you have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for making personal attacks towards other editors. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  - CorbieVreccan 23:20, 24 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Tara Bourne. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Liz Read!

More personal attacks, after being blocked

edit

So, I see that, after multiple warnings and being blocked, you are once again back to disparaging editors who are trying to help you, as in this edit summary: "Getting rid of patronising nonsense from someone who can't read". Your userpage is also full of attacks on the WP community. Particulary, saying you edit here "to stick it to the people who want to chase me out!" Since you consider Wikikpedia to be a "Stupid site with an ill educated minority ruining it for us real editors", perhaps this is not the best place for you. In this edit summary:"With my other username that was banned due to sad little people" you seem to be indicating you may now be evading a ban or indef-block. Anything you'd like to disclose? - CorbieVreccan 21:21, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • I first started editing on Wikipedia in Spring 2006. Everything was fine until I moved in to live with someone else in 2018 and he was a vandal. Everyone on here didn't understand that there could be two people in one property editing. So after 12 years of editing and creating articles (200 odd articles) I was kicked off because someone I lived with who I shared an address with was a vandal. No-one listened and could understand that two people live in one home. So, yes, I am jaded. I contribute A LOT on here compared to others and will continue to do so. Look at my actual edit record and what I've done rather than just picking on things you don't like. If you think I deserve banning then just do it. I'll just come back again under a new username and keep trying to make Wikipedia better and more accurate. Just because I think this site is broken and flawed doesn't mean I'll give up on it. Ever. Sirhissofloxley (talk) 21:26, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Are you currently the only person with access to your account? It's with this account that you are engaging in chronic incivility, and have now indicated your intention to further violate WP policy via WP:SOCK accounts.
Without knowing your former username, I cannot evaluate your earlier block. Admins regularly see invocation of the WP:LITTLEBROTHER defense. In absence of further evidence, I'm giving the benefit of the doubt to my fellow admins, who are not belittling fellow Wikipedians and the site as a whole, and assume they used the tools we have at hand to confirm that they made the right call when they indef-blocked you.
So, yes, it seems you probably are evading an indef-block for edits others agreed were vandalism, and can be blocked now based on that. But even disregarding that, you are chronically incivil and can't seem to stop. When you make interacting with you a burden, when you disrupt and cause stress for editors who do not violate core policy, it outweighs any other contributions you may make here. - CorbieVreccan 21:56, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Ok. I am not so stupid (I am a little stupid) as to not admit to being uncivil at times. BUT, here's an idea and I'll hope you take me up on it. Give me one last chance please here under my current name. Hopefully you do see that, vastly overall, I am committed to editing and improving and updating the site. As the guy who got me blocked said, why would I edit fine for 12 years and suddenly go silly and vandalise? I am willing to back down now and chill out and just be a vanilla editor and be nice. Truce and if I break it ban me? Sirhissofloxley (talk) 22:02, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
I'm really not interested in bargaining. Your last block was temporary because I was giving you a chance to become civil. You wasted this chance and showed either an unwillingness or inability to change. Your record of insults, incivility, and vows to violate policy speaks for itself. If you want transparency, disclose your former username. - CorbieVreccan 22:11, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Fine. Cls14. I was supposedly a sock puppet of James Bowes, the real name of my housemate. But I am sure you'll ban me anyway. So be done with it and I'll be back again. This site moans about a decreased number of editors and a lack of this and that. Perhaps because you are ridiculous bullies. The people I supposedly were uncivil to (as in my flatmate was) were banned or retired soon after. But don't let facts get in your way pal. Sirhissofloxley (talk) 22:16, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
