Hi Educator57! Welcome! I see on your userpage you say that some pages you create might not be sourced but are your own knowledge. Please familiarise yourself with the Wikipedia policy WP:RS before creating any new pages. {{ping}} or post on my talkpage for help. Best, Waddie96 (talk) 10:01, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

April 2018

Hello, I'm Cahk. An edit that you recently made to Wikipedia:Patent nonsense seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Cahk (talk) 08:08, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Umm I was trying to explain what nonsense looks like can you put it back? Educator57 (talk) 08:12, 28 April 2018 (UTC) Educator57 (talk) 08:12, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cambridge Analytica. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 02:59, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Nazism for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you. Acroterion (talk) 03:00, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Acroterion (talk) 03:24, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

original research derived from Google maps is not an acceptable source - you need a published source that explicitly states the information, and you may not insert notes or personal observations. Acroterion (talk)

Thats it. Educator57 (talk) 07:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm

Hmmm Educator57 (talk) 07:24, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If I keep making inconstructive edits, what can I do to contribute to wikipedia?

What? Educator57 (talk) 07:28, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You need to start making constructive edits, with published sources, rather than writing about what you think you know. If you make non-constructive edits, you will lose your editing privileges. This is a serious encyclopedia project. From your edits it appears that you may be rather young - you might want to give it a little time (as in a couple of years) and learn about the editing environment as a reader and as a low-key contributor, before doing anything too bold. Acroterion (talk) 11:50, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. But how do I make a constructive edit and make a good article? I think it takes months, even years to make a good article and seriously do a big contribution

Start small, expand short articles a little at a time, and learn what good sources are for references, and how to cite sources. Don't try to start big projects until you've mastered the small things. Building, or rebuilding a major article from scratch does indeed take a long time, and you need some experience first. Try to improve existing material, rather than start new articles - there are more than five million articles, and it's hard to find a wholly new article to write when you're new. Acroterion (talk) 03:17, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I have learned my lesson.

No, you haven't. With this [1] edit to Italy you changed the IPA pronunciation scheme, making it incorrect, because you don't seem to know what IPA is or does. Don't change things that you think are incorrect if you don't actually understand them, and even then think it over carefully and check for independent verification. Acroterion (talk) 11:59, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And this is completely unnecessary [2]. If you don't take warnings from other editors seriously, you'll be blocked to stop your disruptive editing. Acroterion (talk) 00:57, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well I have not learned my lesson.

May 2018

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Italy, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.

That was not a typo. The word you changed was written using IPA, not Italian - it's the pronunciation guide. bonadea contributions talk 07:24, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Videomapping moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Videomapping, 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 follow the confirms on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. Nick Moyes (talk) 13:20, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Educator57! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself!

Put warnings and NOAERs (Notification Of Article Edit Reversions) here please.

Please put all of your warnings and NOEARs here. Educator57 (talk) 03:08, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

May 2018

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for persistently making disruptive edits. 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 ~~~~}}. Acroterion (talk) 00:29, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Adding an external link that leads to a malware warning [3] [4] is completely unacceptable. I expect you to edit cautiously after this block expires, because the next block will be indefinite on competency grounds. Acroterion (talk) 00:31, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Educator57 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Let me go back to editing, and I will revert that malware link thing.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
the block is no longer necessary because you
1. understand what you have been blocked for,
2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. 331dot (talk) 01:03, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Whoops..

I think I will be editing again at 3pm Singapore time tomorrrow..

I think you need to stop and reconsider your approach to editing Wikipedia. To ensure that you have some time to review our expectations for contibutors, I'm extending the block a bit more. Acroterion (talk) 00:41, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well you have been extending my block right? When is it going to expire?

If I do the same thing again, how long is the block gonna be?

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Educator57 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Yes, I do not wanna be blocked again, but I understand whyI was blocked. I wont do this again. My new update to editing protocol: Before adding an external link or changing it, I will test the link first. If it leads to those bad malware screens, I will immediately remove that link. Thank you for understanding. Yours, -Written by Educator57 (talk) 07:19, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

No. You clearly knew you were linking to malware sites and were doing so deliberately. This isn't a case where testing the link first would have helped, as you already knew and were linking anyway. I can only conclude you were deliberately attempting to attack Wikipedia readers. I'm stunned your block wasn't indefinite. Your next block certainly will be. Yamla (talk) 12:08, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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.

@Yamla:: Having interacted with this user for a while, I don't think it was deliberate, I think it was an after-the-fact realization and a lack of competency on the part of a very young user. That said, the chance of this user becoming sufficiently capable of editing productively in the next couple of years is almost nil. I've been hoping for a little interaction from the user and a realization that they've not lived up to our requirements for editing - so far I've seen none but "when can I start editing again." Acroterion (talk) 14:50, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Learning to edit

A couple of things based on your most recent edits - please pay attention, this is a last attempt to see if you'll listen to other editors.

Don't make disambiguation entries for articles that don't yet exist - if it doesn't exist it doesn't need disambiguation.
Don't enter raw external links - see how it's done on other articles, where there's a section and appropriate context/explanation for the link. Acroterion (talk) 02:04, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you stop fooling around with all of the tracking on your userpage you'll have more time to learn editing techniques. Userpages aren't really for what you're trying to do, and in any case you can see your automatically-generated editing history at any time without all of the wasted effort. Acroterion (talk) 02:06, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Better [5], but don't append parenthetical commentaries to your edits. Acroterion (talk) 02:09, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- - Don't do this! [6] Final warning. Acroterion (talk) 02:37, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok

You just did the exact same thing you agreed you would not do again. [7] Why? --bonadea contributions talk 05:44, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here are some other things that fit under this general heading: If you are not blocked for repeating the edits you had already been warned about,

please stop fiddling with your user page and subpages - Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a social network, and creating user pages is not the point of being here. Please read this information. That is quite a long page, but the important bit is the summary at the top, and "What may I not have in my user pages?".
consider taking the Wikipedia adventure to learn more about editing Wikipedia. You clearly mean well, but your edits are mostly not very constructive, so you have to learn more about Wikipedia. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 06:33, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinitely blocked

Since there is no sign that you're going to stop making inappropriate edits to the encyclopedia, I've blocked you indefinitely. Perhaps in a couple of years, after you've matured a little, you can ask for an unblock, but for now, edits like these [8] [9] after a long block, and the perpetual and inappropriate fussing with userspace indicate that there is no net value in continuing your editing privileges for this project. Acroterion (talk) 02:36, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not to mention this [10], which assures that nobody's going to unblock you. Acroterion (talk) 02:37, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Talkpage access revoked [11]. Acroterion (talk) 02:53, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make a personal attack, as you did with this edit to User talk:Educator57. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Dark-World25 (talk) 02:52, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

unblock

By evading your block and creating new accounts, you make us less likely to unblock you. Your next step is to seek unblock via WP:UTRS.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 07:40, 14 May 2018 (UTC) [reply]

This blocked user is asking that their block be reviewed on the Unblock Ticket Request System:

Educator57 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • abuse filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

UTRS appeal #21519 was submitted on May 14, 2018 08:23:06. This review is now closed.

--UTRSBot (talk) 08:23, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I gave you some bad advice in my last edit summary. Please don't submit an unblock request through UTRS because you won't be unblocked. At this point you need to walk away from Wikipedia for 6 months. After you have been away for 6 continuous months then come back and us UTRS to request an unblock. You said in one of your edits that you are trying a new method of unblocking myself, which is trying to make as many constructive edits, eventually gaining the trust lf admins, and unblocking me on my Educator57 account. Evading a block is not going to help you gain the trust of anyone. It will just make us trust you less. If you want us to trust you, do what we have asked you to do, no editing of Wikipedia. ~ GB fan 10:16, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Videomapping

Hello, Educator57. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Videomapping".

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 nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 21:48, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
