Your recent edits
[edit]Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 20:39, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
Dear Catfleming, Thank you for your effort in wikipedia. Unfortunately, your contribution which I revered [1] Do not confirm to any wikipedia standards. You replaced an existing article with a stream of unreferenced text that lacked any structure. You mentioned that the article is bias. This could well be the case. But it is important that you substantiate the changes with citations where you think there are problematic parts. A wholesale replacing with an essay like text of an existing well-structured, wikified text is not constructive. Mootros (talk) 20:44, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.--Work permit (talk) 02:33, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
- It is possibly that you can get unblocked. Especially if you explain that you are new to wikipedia and that you did not fully understand the gravity of your action. We really would like you to contribute to wikipedia in a meaningful way and a mistake in the begining should not hinder for good. Mootros (talk) 18:04, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
Blocked
[edit]{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. FASTILY (TALK) 03:01, 27 February 2010 (UTC)How to deal with issues issues to an article
[edit]Hello. I see that you have been blocked from editing Wikipedia but that you are the subject of an article. We take very seriously our responsibility to article subjects. If there are factual errors with your article, you currently have the following options:
- As long as this page is not locked, you can post proposed amendments here and ask for help from an editor who is not blocked. To do this, click "New section" above, start a section with a title like "article error" and include the following wiki code:
{{helpme}}
- You can contact Wikipedia by email, to get in touch with a system manned by volunteers who are experienced Wikipedians and well versed in our policies. Note, however, that they are only volunteers; Wikipedia has no editorial board. Please read that page carefully for guidance on what our volunteers will and will not do to help you.
Before you do either of the above, please note the following:
- You should restrict yourself to provable errors of fact. We can help you if you can state:
- What is wrong
- What it should say instead (briefly)
- What reliable independent sources support your request.
- We cannot help you unless you can verify your request by reference to such sources; repeated requests without sources may be seen as vexatious.
- Legal threats are absolutely forbidden, any communications regarding legal action must be sent by registered mail to the Wikimedia Foundation at its postal address. Any form of legal threat may result in your being prevented from making comments on this, your talk page.
- Please do not be tempted to grandstand. Wikipedia editors will be pleased to help with factual errors, but differences of opinion or interpretation, flame wars or expressions of general dissatisfaction with Wikipedia, its processes, editors, administrators and so on will, I'm afraid, be ignored and possibly removed. We are well aware of our faults but we believe that they are best fixed in an atmosphere of calm reflection.
Above all, please remember that this message is intended to help you. We know you are upset and probably angry, and we probably can't fix that right now, but please believe that we are sincerely committed to ensuring that we do not compound this by perpetuating inaccuracies in your article.
