Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to A Voyage Round the World, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hello. In a recent edit to the page The Icepick Surgeon, 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. HorseyChallenge (talk) 14:40, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

HorseyChallenge, hi. I firmly believe that a mistake has been made. The book is American. So I have used {{Use American English}} there. That's why I do not changed one version of English to another. Thanks. Spotanus (talk) 15:27, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spotanus, thank you for your response. I posted this here because, while the book is American, it does not have strong enough MOS:TIES to the US given it talks about scientists and scientific atrocities in many different nations. HorseyChallenge (talk) 16:03, 16 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked as a sockpuppet

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Cambria Math per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Cambria Math. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Girth Summit _(blether) 15:38, 18 December 2021 (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).

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

Request reason:

Hellow! Why I am a sockpuppet?? I told Girth Summit to make me a student of Counter vandalism unit. I asked to teahouse that I am new here and they told me to go to WP:Task center. Then I went and saw that I can be a student of the unit. I asked what is an autoconfirmed user because I coudn't understand what actually it is. I found the userboxes from WP:Userboxes/Gallery. I've first read all guidelines of wikipedia. then I could understand what is wikipedia. How to contribute. And the article, Michael Neser, I reverted the vandalism using WP:WikiLoop DoubleCheck tool. I didn't started to appear on Lagnat's watchlist. And I really don't know Richard Michael William, Tajwar Cartoon Limited, Rectangular Circle and Oriental Goldbulb. DearShaila and Tomar boss. Who are they? Thanks. And I think I should be unblocked. Spotanus (talk) 16:24, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 16:34, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
