User talk:NoahTheKingOfWikipedia
August 2016
[edit]Hello, I'm Colonel Wilhelm Klink. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Rucka Rucka Ali, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Colonel Wilhelm Klink (Complaints|Mistakes) 01:53, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
- Well, I attempted at adding the link to the YouTube videos of which the feud between them took place, but it would not save. I could not locate a website source so I added a citation needed with a reasonable explanation. So just re-allow YouTube links so I know you're one of the few users here actually trying to build an encyclopedia. As long as you don't be my enemy, I won't be yours. Happy editing! - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 20:29, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not trying to be your enemy, but you still need to cite sources for all WP:BLP edits. If you really can't find an outside source, it may be that the information is faulty (perhaps the video was a hoax), or simply not notable enough to the point where it warrants inclusion. Youtube is not a reliable source, especially when it involves possibly libelous information, because videos can be forged and posted by anyone, so until a better reference comes along, leave the info out. (So that "re-allow Youtube links" isn't going to happen, either by me or anyone else.) As for "trying to build the encyclopedia", remember that verifiability is important for all of our information, especially when Wikipedia is already derided by many as unreliable. I don't mean to discourage you by removing your contributions, but we've all got to stay within the guidelines. Anyway, thank you for your work here; I hope you enjoy editing.

- It's not a hoax. I literally saw 4 facecam videos made between both of them each throwing each other off and they both made diss songs about the other. - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 22:45, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
- A reliable source must be cited to back up that claim. Read the first paragraph of WP:BLP. Colonel Wilhelm Klink (Complaints|Mistakes) 23:14, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
- Understood. - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 00:22, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks; Wikipedia is very strict about content relating to living people, as false content carries the risk of slander/libel lawsuits, etc. Just keep that in mind, and always cite your sources. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask me, or visit the Teahouse, where experienced editors will answer any questions you have. Good luck, Colonel Wilhelm Klink (Complaints|Mistakes) 00:47, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors. 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. Aloha27 talk 22:54, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
- Excuse me, I am not attacking them. I am noting them and their bad edits. People have every right to know who the hidden vandals on Wikipedia are. Also, exactly what gives you any right to edit my user page? I'm damn sure I hold all rights to my user page if nothing else. Also, I have a strict policy against slandering my talk page and I will not tolerate seeing it again. So if you don't have anything positive to say, don't say anything at all. Happy editing. - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 00:22, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Once again, No personal attacks on other editors will be tolerated here. IF you find vandalism, simply report it to WP:AIV, let the admins deal with it and be on your way. Your continued noting of their (in your opinion only) "bad habits" is not going to be helpful and could easily result in your being blocked from editing. Regards, Aloha27 talk 00:35, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- I agree completely, personal attacks are not tolerable. Which is why I'm kindly asking you to leave me and my personal pages alone. Don't make this worse than it already is. - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 01:38, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Perfect. Then I shall assume that there will be no further edits such as this and this regarding other editors. Regards Aloha27 talk 02:06, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for making a report on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, it appears that the editor you reported may not have engaged in vandalism, or the user was not sufficiently or appropriately warned. Please note there is a difference between vandalism and unhelpful or misguided edits made in good faith. If the user continues to vandalise after a recent final warning, please re-report it. Thank you. Sro23 (talk) 00:57, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
Blocked
[edit]Your username is the only reason for this block. You are welcome to choose a new username (see below) and continue editing.
A username should not be promotional, related to a "real-world" group or organization, misleading, offensive or disruptive. Also, usernames may not end in the word "bot" unless the account is an approved bot account.
You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you have already made edits and you wish to keep your existing contributions under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:
- Adding
{{unblock-un|your new username here}}
on your user talk page. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked, as you can usually still edit your own talk page. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "E-mail this user" on their talk page. - At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
- Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names. The account is created upon acceptance, thus do not try to create the new account before making the request for a name change. For more information, please see Wikipedia:Changing username.
- Adding
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. TomStar81 (Talk) 02:09, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- You didn't even take it to the Wikipedia:UAA page. Ever heard of a fair trial? - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 02:37, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- Tom is an admin; he doesn't need to bring it to UAA.142.105.159.60 (talk) 03:02, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Your Disclaimer
[edit]In accordance with Section II of WP:POLEMIC, I am removing your template at the top of you talk page on grounds that it is "Material that can be viewed as attacking other editors, including the recording of perceived flaws." If you feel that this was done in error you are welcome to protest the matter, but know that if your remarks or comments are judged to be within the realm of personal attacks, threats, or other conduct unbecoming of an editor your talk page access will be revoked along with the rest of your editing privilages. TomStar81 (Talk) 03:34, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- How dare you? First you wrongfully ban me due to poor reasoning, and now you remove what I consider a shield from trolls like you based on opinion. You have brought shame to my Wikipedia. - NoahTheKingOfWikipedia (talk) 03:55, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- When you have your own Wiki, you cannot call it Wikipedia as that name is copyrighted. However, this Wikipedia does not belong to you. Ownership of single pages is prohibited by policy. I don't think it was ever anticipated anyone would assert ownership of the entire project. However, I'm pretty sure that attitude will not be received well here. You may wish to adjust both your thinking and your dialog. John from Idegon (talk) 04:32, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
- First of all, you have been blocked (for username violation only), not WP:BANNED which is an entirely different action. Secondly, as has been said above, your WP:BATTLEGROUND mentality and dialogue in addition your to WP:OWN issues will likely mean your editing career here will be rather short IMO. This is unfortunate as your desire to improve the project although admirable in itself has thus far been poorly executed and has resulted in a few missteps on your part along the way. This is not an uncommon occurrence. However calling an admin with over ten years experience a "troll" will not gain you many friends/supporters around here. I would suggest an apology on your part would go a long way in mending fences and perhaps could result in your being coached/mentored from time to time as necessary.

Re-Blocked
[edit]I see you've failed to take my advice about your template to heart, so as promised I have re-blocked your account and removed your talk page editing privileges. Now you may consider yourself banned, if you like. TomStar81 (Talk) 16:59, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
