User talk:Herb5247

August 2019

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Harrison, Arkansas. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 19:12, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Further, your addition was unsourced and promotional. John from Idegon (talk) 19:12, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Harrison, Arkansas, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 19:20, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Harrison, Arkansas. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. John from Idegon (talk) 19:22, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on others again, as you did at User talk:John from Idegon, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. John from Idegon (talk) 19:54, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly, you have no interest in improving the encyclopedia. Your only interest here is to spin the article on Harrison, Arkansas and to attack those who are trying to prevent that. In good faith, I'll leave you some material that will explain what Wikipedia actually is and how it works, but any further edits anywhere like you have been making are going to force me to ask to have your editing privileges revoked.

elcome to Wikipedia Herb5247, from WikiProject Editor Retention
Thank you for registering! We hope that you find collaborative editing enjoyable. Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia that started in 2001, is free for all to use and edit within the guidelines and principles users have established and adhere to. Many of these principles and guidelines are listed below. Click on the link next to the images for more information. REMEMBER - each policy and guideline page has a discussion you can join to ask questions, add input and contribute your voice towards any current policy or guideline change underway! Join the discussion by going to the talk page of the article. Please take a minute to view a number of quick start pages for an overview of how to work within these guidelines and more information to help you better understand the practices and procedures editors are using. These include: The Newcomers Manual and User:Persian Poet Gal/"How-To" Guide to Wikipedia. Sometimes new editors become frustrated quickly and find their experience on Wikipedia less than enjoyable. This need not be. If you are having a difficult time for any reason, please feel free to ask me for assistance! Or, better yet, visit The Teahouse where veteran editors are waiting to assist you.

This is being posted on your talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss issues and respond to questions. At the end of each message you will see a signature left by the editor posting. This is done by signing with four tildes (~~~~) or by clicking in the editing interface toolbox, located just above the editing window (when editing). You won't need to sign your contributions to articles themselves; you only need to when using talk pages. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance.

Block notice

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

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 ~~~~}}. Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:51, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have blocked your account indefinitely for disruption and tendentious editing, specifically narrow self-interest and treating Wikipedia as a soapbox. You have made borderline legal threats and have noted you are logging an editor's responses to you in order to report them to political entities. In addition, you are edit warring to restore content to another editor's talk page after acknowledging that you are well aware they requested that you not post there. -- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 16:51, 22 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your ability to edit this talk page has been revoked as an administrator has identified your talk page edits as inappropriate and/or disruptive.

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

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System. If the block is a CheckUser or Oversight block, was made by the Arbitration Committee or to enforce an arbitration decision (arbitration enforcement), or is unsuitable for public discussion, you should appeal to the Arbitration Committee.
Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice.
