December 2011[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Duncan Lunan, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

  • Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
  • ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been considered as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
  • If you need help, please see our help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to place "{{helpme}}" on your talk page and someone will drop by to help.
  • The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Duncan Lunan was changed by DALunan (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.957977 on 2011-12-09T22:31:07+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 22:31, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Duncan Lunan. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. The reverted edit can be found here. Edinburgh Wanderer 22:35, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Duncan Lunan with this edit, you may be blocked from editing. Abigail was here :D (Need Some Help? Click Me!) 22:45, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Notice[edit]

A discussion in which you are mentioned has begun here Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Legal Threat. You are welcome to add your comments there. MarnetteD | Talk 22:46, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary block[edit]

Based on your name and the article you have edited, one can assume you might be the subject. I would encourage you to read the policy on no legal threats, and possibly more importantly this essay. I'm happy to discuss here on this page the issues so that things might get ironed out easily. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 22:48, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because the username, DALunan, matches the name of a well-known, living person.

If you are the person represented by this username, please note that the practice of blocking such usernames is to protect you from being impersonated, not to discourage you from editing Wikipedia. You are welcome to continue to edit under this username, but we ask the following:

  1. Please be willing and able to prove your identity to Wikipedia.
  2. Please send an e-mail to info-en@wikimedia.org. Be aware that the volunteer response team that handles e-mail is indeed operated entirely by volunteers, and the reply may not be immediate.

If you are not the person represented by this username, you are welcome to choose a new username (see below).

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. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a request.
  3. 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.
If you feel that you were blocked in error, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. -- DQ (t) (e) 04:12, 10 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
