Removing Speedy at Recall Tom Bates[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia, thank you for taking the time to create a page here. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed a speedy deletion tag from a page you created yourself. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the deletion tag you removed from Recall Tom Bates. Please do not continue to remove the deletion tag, instead, if you disagree with the deletion, you can follow these steps:

Go to the page by clicking this link. Once there, select the button that says Click here to contest this speedy deletion.
This will take you to the talk page, where you can make your case by explaining why the page does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion.

Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do. For further help about the deletion, you could contact the user who first placed the tag or a highly active user who is willingly to help with deletion. This message was left by a bot, so please do not contact the bot about the deletion. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 23:43, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

January 2012[edit]

I'm sure you mean well, but you should really review Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not, especially the section on Wikipedia:Soapbox.Rorshacma (talk) 23:45, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. Rorshacma (talk) 23:46, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Freedom of speech on Wikipedia[edit]

Short answer: you do not have freedom of speech on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Free speech Please do not attack other editors. Be civil: please see wp:civil If you abuse your editing privileges, you may be banned from editing. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 23:47, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action, as you did at User talk:Jim1138. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved. - Barek (talk • contribs) - 23:52, 26 January 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:

This block is nonsense! I am exercising my First Amendment rights here, which includes the right to make legal threats. Please put a stop to this nonsense at once! Thank you. Berkeley Deserves Better (talk) 23:55, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

First of all, this is a private website and therefore the first amendment is irrelevant. Second of all please, read WP:NLT, particularly "If you must take legal action, we cannot prevent you from doing so. However, it is required that you do not edit Wikipedia until the legal matter has been resolved to ensure that all legal processes happen via proper legal channels."

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.

I suggest you follow this link: Wikipedia:Free speech and read what it states. Quite simply, the first ammendment states that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

This is a privately owned website, not owned by Congress. The 1st amendment does not apply unless it's the US government attempting to limit your speech. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 23:58, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
