Speedy deletion nomination of User:Jack Bauer 2016

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on User:Jack Bauer 2016 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://cyprus-mail.com/2014/09/14/new-era-for-intelligence-agency/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Copyright violations

Jack Bauer 2016, I have nominated two new articles by you, Cyprus Information Service and Cyprus Intelligence Service, for speedy deletion as copyright violations, because both seem to be substantially copied from this article in the Cyprus Mail. Wikipedia is a form of publication, and we therefore take copyright violation very seriously. You must not copy others' words, even if you say where you have taken them from - which you did not in this case - instead, you must summarize the material in your own words and provide a reference to where you got the information. (This also assists a reader who may want to get more information.) Only very brief quotations are allowed, and they must be clearly marked as quotations. There are a number of policy and guideline pages giving more information; I think this one is a good basic guide. Yngvadottir (talk) 17:37, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Cyprus Intelligence Service

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Cyprus Intelligence Service requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

May 2016

Hello, I'm Oshwah. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Demetris Christofias seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 14:18, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Demetris Christofias. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 17:29, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Demetris Christofias, you may be blocked from editing.
Your edits have been automatically marked as vandalism and have been automatically reverted. The following is the log entry regarding this vandalism: Demetris Christofias was changed by Jack Bauer 2016 (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.957749 on 2016-05-01T17:32:42+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 17:32, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further notice the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Nicos Anastasiades. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 17:49, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits to Georgios Grivas

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Georgios Grivas, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Recent edit to Nikos Sampson

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Nikos Sampson, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Constitution of Cyprus, 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. Dr. K. 07:32, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Nikos Sampson. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Dr. K. 07:33, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Cyprus shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Dr. K. 14:13, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Constitution of Cyprus. Dr. K. 14:17, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Cyprus. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Dr. K. 15:27, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for persistent disruptive editing. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

Try convert

Please try the wp:template {{convert}} {{convert|40|mi|km}} generates: 40 miles (64 km) Convert has many other options. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 04:00, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Cyprus. Dr. K. 08:46, 3 June 2016 (UTC) It was information from Wikipedia page Geography of Cyprus. Why don't you erase that (Personal attack removed)[reply]

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at User talk:Jack Bauer 2016. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Dr. K. 09:53, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Thanks for bringing to my attention the unreliable distances given in Geography of Cyprus. I have deleted the whole paragraph as unsourced and demonstrably erronous. Please also note that Wikipedia cannot be used as a source for Wikipedia, for rather obvious reasons. Before you try to add more content to Wikipedia articles, you should make sure that you read and understand the guideline WP:RS. Also, you would be well adviced to familiarize yourself with how to present the sources, see WP:REFB.

If your edits are reverted, you should not try to reenter them without explanation. Wikipedia is based on consensus, and any dispute about content should be solved through discussion. not through edit war. Please read WP:Edit war. Also please read WP:BRD for a suggested way of editing in Wikipedia.

On another note, would you please start to use edit summaries. The edit summary is a good way to tell other editors what you have done and why. Please read Help:Edit summary. --T*U (talk) 11:23, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

June 2016

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make personal attacks on other people, as you did at User talk:Jack Bauer 2016 ‎. Comment on content, not on fellow editors. Dr. K. 17:12, 4 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked because I insisted that Cyprus is just 40 miles from Turkey. Thanks a lot for your rules!!! I quit from your project....

No, that is not the reason you were blocked. Your block stems from the fact that you seem not to understand that a community project like Wikipedia has to have some rules and principles for how editors shall interact. One of the most important principles is that editors co-operate through discussion and consensus-seeking. When your block expires, you are welcome to contribute, provided you accept such principles. If you continue stubbornly to repeat your edits without explanations and without being willing to discuss, you will end up being blocked again and again. If you explain your edits, take part in discussions etc., your contributions may really help improving Wikipedia. The choice is yours. Regards! --T*U (talk) 06:46, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Cyprus. Dr. K. 21:02, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Jack_Bauer_2016 reported by User:Dr.K. (Result: ). Thank you. Dr. K. 21:12, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for disruptive editing and abusing multiple accounts. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

The full report is at the edit warring noticeboard. You were recently blocked for one week but that seems to have had no effect on your behavior. You are presumably the same person as the other new accounts in the last 100 edits of the Cyprus article. EdJohnston (talk) 01:56, 20 June 201

You are some fanatic, obsessive people who got some wikipower and think that they can play god: What is your problem for stating the obvious fact of the 40 mile proximity of Cyprus to Turkey, a key fact to explain the strategic, historical, geographical and economic parameters of the item "Cyprus". If Wikipedia is to depend on people of such limited knowledge and understanding and allergic to excellence and innovations the great idea of Wikipedia will deteriorate to rule based nonsense. P.S: If you dare, inform the founder of Wikipedia of my comments and I am sure he will dismiss you all as fanatical mediocrities and he will promote me to a Chief Executive status.
