User talk:Nahald

Welcome!

Hello Nahald, welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like it here and stick around. If you want, you can drop us a note at Wikipedia:New user log to introduce yourself.

Before you start doing a lot of editing, you might want to take the Tutorial. It gives a lot of basic info you'll want to get you oriented on Wikipedia, and comes highly recommended.

Here're some handy links:

Help:Contents is the list of all of the information you need to use Wikipedia. Wikipedia's Help desk is the best place to ask questions to which you can't find the answers. Also, a lot more good information is at Wikimedia Meta-Wiki, which is often more up-to-date (as Meta is where information that pertains to all of the different Wikimedia projects, such as editing help, is stored and modified). Meta's Help section is located at m:Help:Contents, and more information about it can be found at Wikipedia:Meta and m:Meta:About.
Wikipedia:How to edit a page gives editing help. Whenever you're editing a page, there'll be a link to it below the editing box and to the right of the "Save page" and "Preview" buttons, for easier access.
Wikipedia:Manual of Style gives formatting information.
Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines tell about the principles we operate on. It's important, but you don't need to read it all at once. Our five most important tenets are listed under Wikipedia:Five pillars, and there's an easier-to-read version of Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines at Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset. Our privacy policy is at Wikipedia:Privacy policy.
Wikipedia:Show preview explains how to double-check your edits before saving, an important feature. This allows you to see how edits you have made will look once you save the page and give you an opportunity to correct mistakes before submitting your changes.

Remember to sign your name on talk pages by typing " ~~~ " for your username and " ~~~~ " for your username and a timestamp (which is generally preferred). The software will automatically convert this upon saving the page.

If you have any questions, please ask me on my talk page. I'll answer if I'm here. If you like, you can ask here, on your own talk page (for your own easier reference), but please let me know by posting a note on my talk page saying that you've replied.

Take care, and good wiki-ing, Kyle Barbour 20:27, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

May 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Black knight. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. my name inc ^{Ottoman project} 20:27, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your comments on user talk:mynameinc: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Because there is no source does not mean the information should be deleted. my name inc ^{Ottoman project} 20:54, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not attack other editors, which you did here: Talk:List of Bleach episodes. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 04:02, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Nikthestoned. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Facebook, but you didn't provide a reliable source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, The source states rank 2 - please provide a source saying rank 1 if changing this value. Nik thestoned 12:16, 23 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

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

Request reason:

Apparently I've been blocked because my IP address is believed to be using an "open proxy." I'm not exactly sure what this means, but I have not done anything to intentionally vandalize Wikipedia. –Nahald (talk) 03:07, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

Granting IPBE Daniel Case (talk) 19:29, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are not directly blocked; use {{unblock-auto}} instead. Make sure you include everything it tells you when you try to edit. —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 07:07, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

IP block exempt

I have granted your account an exemption from IP blocking. This will allow you to edit through full blocks affecting your IP address when you are logged in.

Please read the page Wikipedia:IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.

Appropriate usage and compliance with the policy may be checked periodically, due to the nature of block exemption, and block exemption will be removed when no longer needed (for example, when the block it is related to expires).

I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption. Daniel Case (talk) 19:29, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, Nahald, but I've removed the block exemption which seems to have been granted by mistake. That said, I see no block currently affecting your account or the IP you're editing through. If you run into problems editing, we can look at the matter again in detail; if that happens, please copy the exact block message you get while trying to edit and we'll sort this out. — Coren ^(talk) 18:20, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Auto Blocked Again

This user's request to have autoblock on their IP address lifted has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

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

99.181.224.138 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log)

Block message:

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be an open proxy. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you believe you are not running an open proxy, the most likely cause is that another customer from your ISP who was previously assigned this IP address was running an open proxy. If this is the case, please request to be unblocked using the {{unblock}} template, or request administrator attention using {{admin!}} and indicate you are caught by an open proxy block. More rarely, your network equipment or that of your service provider may be misconfigured or compromised by malicious software (such as a virus). In some cases, this can be remedied by logging into the secure server. For more information, see the Wikiproject on Open Proxies and Wikipedia:Open proxies.

Blocking administrator: Coren (talk • blocks)

Accept reason: The range block affecting you seems to no longer be necessary or accurate and was lifted. — Coren ^(talk) 02:07, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'll ask User:Coren to have a look. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 00:25, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Nahald. You're not actually autoblocked, you are editing from an IP range which has been blocked. Are you using the services of an anonymizing proxy service? Specifically, one named "Hide My Ass!"? — Coren ^(talk) 00:36, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure, is there any particular way I can find out whether I am? –Nahald (talk) 01:29, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In general, if the computer is under your control, that wouldn't happen by accident so you'd know. It's entirely possible that the range you edit from has not been used by that service in some time – I'll just lift the range block which seems to no longer be necessary. — Coren ^(talk) 02:05, 19 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RE: Adventure Time

Check out WP:MoS and the talk page for Adventure Time. Logical quotation is what is preferred on Wikipedia.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 03:15, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Aqua Teen

These were made in a different order. Futurama has the same story listed in the original order with an extra column to clear up confusion. If you pay close attention to Adult Swim the reruns are often aired in the order listed if you're worried about confusion. Grapesoda22 (talk) 03:05, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ARBCOM

Your request for arbitration was inappropriate. I wish Grapesoda22 had told you as much when you posted to their talk page. ARBCOM is the last venue in Wikipedia and typically only responds when multiple users have had a long running dispute which they were otherwise unable to resolve. You didn't even have a conversation on the article's talk page.

In a case where there was not a consensus on the article's talk page, you could have asked for input at WP:WikiProject Television. You also could have submitted a request for comment. You would do well to read guidance like WP:DR before going to ARBCOM. Chris Troutman (talk) 07:03, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Arbitration request declined

The arbitration request (Production Codes Versus Air Date/Television Order) involving you has been declined by the Arbitration Committee The comments made by arbitrators may be helpful in proceeding further. For the Arbitration Committee,--S Philbrick (Talk) 01:31, 29 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Gamergate controversy discretionary sanctions alert

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Wally K. Daly, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Big Finish (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

National varieties of English

Hello. In a recent edit to the page 2001: A Space Odyssey (film), you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. David J Johnson (talk) 20:27, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reno 911! The Hunt for QAnon moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Reno 911! The Hunt for QAnon, is not suitable 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 click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, Nahald. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Reno 911! The Hunt for QAnon, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

Speedy deletion of Draft:Reno 911! The Hunt for QAnon

Please do not introduce inappropriate pages, such as Draft:Reno 911! The Hunt for QAnon, to Wikipedia. Doing so is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been deleted. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review.

I'm a bit confused as to why this article is considered "inappropriate." I created an article for a movie awhile ago because there wasn't one and it was moved to a draft due to lack of citations, partially because there were few official sources on the movie because it was a low-budget streaming movie that was released to limited press. I get why you went ahead and deleted it because it had been gathering dust for awhile and, to be honest, I probably never was going to ever get around to making it presentable, but I'm a bit unsure as to why I've been sent this rather accusatory message. –02:57, 7 January 2023 (UTC) Nahald (talk) 02:57, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

January 2023

Please do not create, maintain or restore hoaxes on Wikipedia. If you are interested to know how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements already in Wikipedia – and, if possible, correct them. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Continued disruption will be met with sanctions, which could include a block from editing. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 06:15, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really sure what this is in reference to. I don't recall doing any recent edits that perpetuate hoaxes, I don't even recall doing edits on a recent article on contentious issues. The most I did was contest the reversion of an edit of the article for the Queen song "'39" which added a "See Also" section and linked to the movie Interstellar, which has a similar premise to the song. This is hardly an uncommon practice on Wikipedia, many articles for movies have "See Also" sections which link to articles for other movies which have similar premises. How exactly does this fall into the realm of perpetuating a hoax? Are you trying to imply that my edit was making the claim that Christopher Nolan plagiarized Brian May? Because that was not my intention, nor do I think that simply stating the two works have similar premises comes carries with it the implication that one of them was from plagiarized the other. –Nahald (talk) 03:11, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
