User talk:Mr.Dragon.Purple

Welcome!

Hello, Mr.Dragon.Purple, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:August 12 2036, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:August 12 2036

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, the introduction of inappropriate pages, such as Draft:August 12 2036, is considered vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion.

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 deleted 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.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used only for vandalism.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Bbb23 (talk) 14:40, 28 June 2024 (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).

Mr.Dragon.Purple (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I'm a new account, so I really just trying some things, you know? Yes, this wasn't really following the guidelines... but doing it only 2 TIMES results in a ban FOREVER? Let's be honest, everyone did some vandalising at some point. And only 2 times... I think that at this rate 99% of wikipedia editors should get banned. And also, it wasn't ONLY vandalism, I did some good stuff too, like adding the meaning of the Ukrainian flag in the Ukrain flag wiki page, or tried to remove all the vandalism from wikipedia, by creating Sandbox for editors (yes, it didn't work, but at least I tried), wikipedia please unban me pleeeeeaaaaase Mr.Dragon.Purple (talk) 15:13, 1 July 2024 (UTC)Mr.Dragon.Purple[reply]

Decline reason:

This unblock request has been declined due to your history of vandalism and/or disruption to this encyclopedia. However, we are willing to give you another chance provided that you can earn back the trust of the Wikipedia community. To be unblocked you need to demonstrate and confirm that you are willing and able to contribute positively to Wikipedia. You can do this by:

Familiarizing yourself with our basic rules.
Reading our guide to improving articles.
Picking any pre-existing article you wish to improve.
- If you have trouble choosing an article to improve, see this index of articles needing improvement for ideas.

Once you have decided on the article you will propose improvements to:

1. Click the Edit tab at the top of that article;
2. Copy the portion of the prose from that article that you will be proposing changes to. However:
  - do not copy the "infobox" from the start of the article (i.e., markup like this: {{infobox name|...}}),
  - do not copy any image placement code (i.e., markup like this: [[File:Name.jpg|thumb|caption]]),
  - do not copy the page's categories from the bottom of the page (i.e., markup like this: [[Category:Name]]),
  - and do not copy the stub tag (if there) from the bottom of the page (i.e., markup like this: {{Foo stub}});
3. Click edit at your talk page and paste at the bottom under a new section header (like this: == [[Article title]] ==) the copied content but do not save yet;
4. Place your cursor in the edit summary box and paste there an edit summary in the following form which specifies the name of the article you copied from and links to it (this is required for mandatory copyright attribution): "Copied content from [[exact Name of Article]]; see that article's history for attribution."
5. You can now save the page. However, if your edits have any citations to reliable sources (which they should), add the following template to the end of your prose: {{reflist-talk}}. Once you have added the template, click Publish changes.
Now, edit that content. Propose significant and well researched improvements by editing the selected portion of the article. Please note that we are not looking for basic typo corrections, or small unreferenced additions; your edits should be substantial, and reflect relevant policies.
When you are done with your work, re-request unblocking using {{unblock}} and an administrator will review your proposed edits.
- If we (including the original blocking admin) are convinced that your proposed edits will hopefully improve Wikipedia as an encyclopedia, you will be unblocked.

If you need help while working with your proposed edits, you may add "{{Help me|your question here ~~~~}}" to your talk page. Thank you. Yamla (talk) 15:36, 1 July 2024 (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, I don't often interfere in this sort of thing, but this is one of the worst unblock requests I've ever seen and should have been declined outright. There is nothing this user has done on Wikipedia that has not been either vandalism or disruptive, and their contention otherwise, including the one about the Ukraine flag (those edits were disruptive at a minimum), is a bald-faced misrepresentation and demonstrates that they either have zero insight into their behavior or that they are trolling, and I lean toward the latter. The statement that everyone vandalizes at one time or another is a slam against Wikipedians generally and not even close to being true. Oh, it's okay for me to steal a few times, I mean everyone steals, don't they? Forgive the stridency of this comment, but it touched a nerve.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:43, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

These are all good points. Basically the only mitigating factor is the small number of contributions. I'm hoping they are able to wow us with an exceptionally good constructive proposed edit but, frankly, I expect Mr.Dragon.Purple won't even attempt this. Mr.Dragon.Purple, note that you have to convince Bbb23 as well as the reviewing administrator that it's worth unblocking you and, given your bad behaviour so far, this is going to be a substantial challenge. --Yamla (talk) 16:42, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I agree with all, EXCEPT the part of about me "trolling" the Ukraine flag page. Go to wiktionary or something, an search up "Trolling", because from that part I understood that you have 0 idea what trolling is Mr.Dragon.Purple (talk) 09:38, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hello, it's me again. I'm 99% sure no one will even see this, but I hope that someone will... So, I'm here. 4 month later. I just wanna ask for a second chance. I know that given what I did I don't deserve a second chance, but please... I can prove I deserve it if you just give me a second chance... This time I came here only to make Wikipedia better, and not to make it a hellscape. Please wikipedia, please give me a second chance. I can prove I deserve it... Mr.Dragon.Purple (talk) 08:11, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Mr.Dragon.Purple[reply]

Decline reason:

You were provided with specific instructions above as to how you can show us you deserve a second chance. Please either make use of those instructions, or tell us why you aren't(but not doing so is likely to count against you in any other unblock requests you make). 331dot (talk) 09:13, 25 October 2024 (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.

I tried to, but uhh when I wanted to write something on a talk page it just said I'm blocked to edit articles, and it's not letting me write anything on talk pages -Mr.Dragon.Purple

If you are unable to correctly follow the instructions above, we'll need to leave you blocked. --Yamla (talk) 12:58, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If Wikipedia is unable to let me follow your instructions correctly I physically can't follow your instructions — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr.Dragon.Purple (talk • contribs)

The instructions work if you follow them correctly. You are not doing so. --Yamla (talk) 13:19, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll explain what I'm doing step by step, I find an article, I go to talk page, I click add topic, it says that I'm blocked from editing Wikipedia, and doesn't let me add anything to the talk page — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr.Dragon.Purple (talk • contribs)

You should not be doing that. Instead, you should be following the instructions given above. At no point do the instructions above tell you to go to an article talk page and click add topic. --Yamla (talk) 16:45, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add, it's also critically important that you exactly follow the instructions because if you fail to exactly complete step 4, you'll lose access to this talk page for violating WP:COPYRIGHT. These instructions aren't vague hints for you to follow, they are a test to see if you can understand and follow directions and our policies and guidelines. If you are unable to do so, en.wikipedia.org isn't the place for you at this time. --Yamla (talk) 16:54, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
