This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anti-establishment wave, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. cc: @OpenFuture: Baking Soda (talk) 14:52, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Huh? I posted a comment regarding the proposal to delete, per WP:OR. I think there's been a mistake. Furthermore, please read WP:WARNVANDAL, WP:AGF and WP:DTR before you warn a user. I've been editing Wikipedia for years.--Forward Unto Dawn 15:19, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

What about this? Perhaps a browser plugin that automatically changes "Trump" to "Drumpf"? Baking Soda (talk) 15:27, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Ooooooh, I see. Whoops! I'm running the "Make Donald Drumpf Again" Chrome extension. It changes all instances of the word "Trump" with "Drumpf". I'll switch it off and redo my edit. My bad.--Forward Unto Dawn 15:30, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
