User talk:Takethemdown

October 2012

Hello, I'm Mr. Stradivarius. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Alexis Wright‎ seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. 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. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{(have a chat)} 16:34, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Takethemdown", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it is adversarial. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{(have a chat)} 16:38, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah its not adversarial because I only wanna take down those who deserve it and ONLY with verifibale sources which is what wikipedia is all about. I dont go around talking shit about your username and dont see why you have the disrespect to come here and do that to me. I was polite until you started being rude.

Please do not add defamatory content to Wikipedia, as you did to Zumba, especially if it involves living persons. Thank you. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{(have a chat)} 16:54, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Last time I checked, A) Zumba is not a living person, and B) the material added was reliably sourced and thus immune from defamation. You don't have a leg to stand on here.

Zumba

Please head to the talk page and explain why the section on prostitution should remain. You're trying to make it sound as if prostitution was as phenomenon that is unique to Zumba and/or very prevalent there. While these cases may exist, you fail to make a case that they are typical, and because of that I question the relevance for the article. O.Koslowski (talk) 17:19, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So what you think people should just be forced to sell their bodies? These people will get whats cominbg to themTakethemdown (talk) 19:04, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 18:44, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Adam Vaughan shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Oh did you tell him the same thing or just me because I have the courage to speak the truth? You can hide in the shadows all you want, I bet you really are that guy and just dont want the world to know about your evil activities. The truth cannot be stopped tho Takethemdown (talk) 19:22, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because your account is being used mainly for trolling, disruption or harassment. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. --Bongwarrior (talk) 19:32, 18 October 2012 (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).

Request reason:

I have not used ANYTHING but reliable sources, and have not published ANYTHING bad about anyone who didn't have it coming. I'm trying hard to take down people who deserve it and have not trolled anyone, have not disrupted anything, and have not broken any rules. I'm being banned because people don't like me and want to protect those in power Takethemdown (talk) 19:35, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

"I have not published ANYTHING bad about anyone who didn't have it coming." We don't get to judge who "has it coming"; if you want to "take down people who deserve it", go do it elsewhere; that's not what Wikipedia is for and we have no patience for such behavior. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 19:38, 18 October 2012 (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.

Request reason:

Okay I wont do that anymore then, I was new and just got excited about wanting to help. I'll follow the rules from now on because I didnt know them before. Takethemdown (talk) 20:05, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

There is nothing in the discussion above or below that convince me that there will be positive edits coming from this editor. The Guide to Appealing Blocks makes it quite clear as to what makes for an actionable unblock request: this request and the associated discussion are far from those requirements. There needs to be acknowledgement that previous behaviour that led to the block was improper (with examples), and we must be certain that future behavioural problems will not occur, period. We need to see the types of edits you plan to make in the future. The provided info gives just the opposite picture (✉→BWilkins←✎) 09:12, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You say on your user page "I created this account to take down those people who deserve it", and you have repeated it here on this talk page. Just to be sure we understand you, when you now say "I wont do that anymore", are you saying you will abandon that pursuit? And if so, what do you plan to do here on Wikipedia instead? -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 20:45, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and would you now be prepared to change your name? (I think you should, as it represents your original intention and appears provocative.) -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 20:46, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok yeah I read all the pages and stuff and it would probably be more efficient to just put the facts out there and let people decide themselves neutrally so they cant complain that the info was biased. I'll try to change my name too but its hard. Plz dont just kick me off forever Takethemdown (talk) 22:22, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone through your contributions 3 times. I've read and re-read your userpage, this page at least a half-dozen times. I have to say this: I'm not convinced. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 11:17, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If I wanted to be a troll or a problem I would have just made a new account from my school's computers. I didnt because I am trying to obey the rules and get a second chance fairly. many of my contributions were kept in some form just reworded to be more friendly. And I'm trying to change my username but its taking a while. Takethemdown (talk) 03:48, 23 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's because the name change you put below cannot be actionned. If an administrator accepts your unblock request, you will be directed to the correct place to request a username change. Until you convince someone - and a veiled threat of WP:EVADE certainly does not help the case - you will not have any name change done, and you, as a person, are not permitted to edit Wikipedia whatsoever.
