Welcome to Wikipedia, New Elmin! Thank you for your contributions. This is an encyclopedia, so remember that it's a necessity to include references listing reliable websites, newspapers, articles, books and other sources you have used to write or expand articles. Please understand that these sources should verify the information in a fair and accurate manner. However, you must not copy and paste text you find anywhere, except for short quotations, marked as such with quote marks and carefully cited to the source the quote was taken from. New articles and statements added to existing articles may be deleted by others if unreferenced or referenced poorly or if they are copyright violations. See referencing for beginners for more details.

I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}} at the bottom of this page.

Here are some more pages that you might find helpful:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! -- Fyrael (talk) 05:48, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Google translations from Wikipedia

[edit]

Please don't continue to post material translated by Google from other language Wikipedias. While Google now produces translations which look much more like real English than it did until a few years ago, that appearance often hides serious inaccuracies in the translation. Also whenever you publish anything copied from any Wikipedia page, translated or not, you must say where you copied it from, to comply with Wikipedia's copyright licensing terms.JBW (talk) 13:43, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@JBW: They didn't listen. Continuing to do the very same thing, unattributed translations. I'm on the verge of sending them to ANI for an indef CIR block, as there seems to be a serious lack of understanding of English. Seems to be considering their choices now though, after reaching a level four warning for adding unsourced content. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 15:03, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Removing warnings counts as having seen them

[edit]

Removing warnings only confirms that you are aware of them, so the next time you add content without a reliable source, you are going to be blocked. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 12:32, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Despite warning messages from several editors, you have continued to add to articles unreferenced material, unattributed copies of text, and Google translations, which in some cases are not in genuine English syntax. You have also at times added material with supposed references which in fact don't support what you have written, or which don't even exist. (Whether that is deliberate, or due to not understanding what you are doing, I can't tell.) Therefore you have been blocked from editing for three days, to prevent further unacceptable editing. When the block is over you are welcome to return to editing, provided you do so in accordance with Wikipedia policies and guidelines, and avoid the kinds of problematic editing which has led to this block. If you are willing to change your ways, and believe you can convince an administrator that you won't continue in the same way as before, you may request to be unblocked. To do so, first read the guide to appealing blocks, and then add the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of this page. JBW (talk) 08:49, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]



Having been given the options of either accepting being blocked for three days or agreeing to edit in accordance with Wikipedia policies and request an unblock, instead of choosing one or other of those options, you decided to evade the block by using another account. The block on this account has therfore been made indefinite. You still have the option of requesting an unblock of this account. Any editing done while evading a block is likely to be reverted.
