Autoblock

edit

{unblock-auto|1=130.216.30.233|2=Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "Enoch08". The reason given for Enoch08's block is: "user hates Wikipedia".|3=DragonflySix tyseven|4=672701}

This block is unfair, not only because this IP is a university and it's blocking everyone here (or at least everyone at this dorm) but more importantly, "user hates Wikipedia" isn't a valid reason for blocking a person's IP surely? Perhaps you have a rogue moderator?

 Y

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Autoblock of 130.216.30.233 lifted or expired.

Request handled by: Sandstein 07:57, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ah

Sorry about that - you got caught in the autoblock, mea culpa. If you look at Enoch08's last few contributions before being blocked, I think you'll agree that "hates Wikipedia" is a fair description. DS 14:19, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

AfD nomination of Religious fanaticism

edit
 

An editor has nominated Religious fanaticism, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Religious fanaticism (2nd nomination) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:59, 28 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Clarity of scripture

edit
 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Clarity of scripture, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.theopedia.com/Perspicuity_of_Scripture. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Removal of Speedy Deletion

edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Clarity of scripture, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

edit
 
Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
