How Wikipedia Fails its Readers

Post below for minor details.

1. Automating copyedits before human citation

1. Stiff & inaccessible administration
2. False “notability” claims
3. Dishonest donation requests
4. Confusing dialogues
5. Arguments for esoteric policies
6. Relying on self-validating sources long-term

Thanks!

Heh

Your eBay reference on WP:FPC made me chuckle :) --Eloquence* 01:22, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! (The Walrus and the Carpenter edit)

I just wanted to drop by and say "thanks" for responding to my concern so quickly - the article looks so much better now! Knowing that the article about such a famous, beautiful piece of art was so... Ugly and badly formatted would have bothered me to no end. Now I can sleep peacefully at night, once more!

Sig

Is your signature just the date and time? I saw your comment at FPC, and your nameless signature left me somewhat confused. If you hadn't intended it to be so, would you mind changing it; it is somewhat hard to reference [blank] :). Thanks. J Are you green? 02:14, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm that's funny; I just noticed that your other recent contributions had a normal signature. If this particular thing was juct an isolated incedent, please accept my apologies for disturbing you and disregard the above. J Are you green? 02:16, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

St. Andrews School

Just wondering the reason for the NPOV tag. I did not see anything on the talk page for it. Spryde 02:31, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm wondering that myself. Mangoe 13:00, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Gracias for the reasons. Spryde 21:25, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

	Thank you
	Thanks for all your WikiGnoming! Your contributions are appreciated, and we need more Wikipedians like you. All the best, – Quadell (talk) 15:56, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:59, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Feeding the trolls

Hi Jellocube27,

It's admirable you are trying to explain, but WP:DENY really is the best way to go. That IP has got just one edit to their address (the nonsense on the talk page) and there's very little chance user will come back to actually talk to you. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 05:47, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

This was a Turing test. Have a nice day. Jellocube27 (talk) 22:52, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

Final warning

By my count, you have now reinstated a post on Talk:Main Page that is off-topic and thus irrelevant to that page three times in a little over 24 hours. I have previously asked you via edit summary ping NOT to reinstate that message. Obviously, that did not get to you. Here's a final warning via your talk page; the next time you reinstate that irrelevant message, I will impose a block for disruptive behaviour. Any questions, please ask (here's good). Schwede66 00:39, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

You’re threatening to block me for providing information… why, Schwede66? I will continue to inform users as requested. Jellocube27 (talk) 01:20, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Because you are edit warring on a page that has a completely different scope. As I informed via edit summary before, take the issue to WP:TEAHOUSE. Your ongoing reverts are disruptive (sorry for repeating myself). Schwede66 01:26, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Teahouse is confusing, I am just a casual editor. I’ll unwatch the main page for now, godspeed enforcing hopeless site policies. Jellocube27 (talk) 01:29, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

If you've figured out how to post to a talk page, you should be able to post a query at the Teahouse as there really isn't any difference. If you really struggle with that, here's a pro-tip: hit the big, blue button at the top of the page and see what happens. Schwede66 01:44, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Hi Schwede66, I believe Jellocube27 is WP:NOTHERE. I tried ARV, but it was suggested I'd go through ANI. I'm on my phone and haven't got the time to look up the many diffs of Jellocube27's edits. Hate to bother you with this, could you maybe step in? soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 18:21, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

I mean, suggesting Rhain is sock puppet is ridiculous, they've edited another's comment and they're still edit warring. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 18:23, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Apologies for any misunderstanding, I am a very casual editor. Thanks for using my talk page. Jellocube27 (talk) 18:40, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

You are WP:NOTHERE. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 18:43, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Soetermans, take your time. File your ANI report when you have time to do so. I don't have time to do so on your behalf. Schwede66 20:43, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

You absolutely cannot accuse another editor of sockpuppetry, Jellocube27, as you did in this edit summary. Here's a essay on conduct policy and I can confirm that it is regarded as a breach of Wikipedia:Civility to make that accusation. The only acceptable way to deal with sockpuppets is to report the editor at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations alongside your evidence. Schwede66 20:40, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

I can provide that evidence, I think. Jellocube27 (talk) 20:44, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

August 2023

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Book burning, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 18:43, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Please explain how this was vandalism, I am editing the article with improvements and new sources. Jellocube27 (talk) 18:49, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Blocked

Blocked, no talk page access. Not sure why you decided to start trolling after all this time, but go do it somewhere else. Floquenbeam (talk) 22:26, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Actually, talk page access restored. Not a trolling-only account. Block is still indef, though. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:32, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for trolling.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Floquenbeam (talk) 01:34, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi Floquenbeam, maybe revoke talk page access? Their latest comments aren't particularly civil. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 06:21, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
