Aboriginal Police Directorate[edit]

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Aboriginal Police Directorate, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Aboriginal policing directorate. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article.

This is all public domain material about a real police force, you asshole.[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Aboriginal Police Directorate[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Aboriginal Police Directorate requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

May 2013[edit]

Your addition to Aboriginal Police Directorate has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Legoktm (talk) 08:00, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Bob's Watches[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Bob's Watches, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. Dougweller (talk) 18:54, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

July 2020[edit]

Hello, I'm Robertsky. Your recent edit(s) to the page WordPress appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. 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. – robertsky (talk) 06:10, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to WordPress. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. – robertsky (talk) 06:27, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on others again, as you did at User talk:Robertsky, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. – robertsky (talk) 06:47, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't make any personal attacks.

calling some a 'asshole' does qualify. – robertsky (talk) 06:52, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No it doesn't everyone has an asshole. I didn't call you an asshole on a live page. I called you an asshole on your talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Owen a ferguson (talk • contribs)

It is the same, and in edit comment of your change as well on WordPress. – robertsky (talk) 07:01, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

also your edits are troubling and flies in the face of the content of the page. the GPL license is clearly displayed on the page, and cited. – robertsky (talk) 06:52, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this project not listed on the list of open source projects then? Why don't you cite something of value to readers no the subject of the article that you seem to be simping for.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Owen a ferguson (talk • contribs)

Each article and list here is maintained separately. I wasn't aware of the list, but now I am. Thanks for raising it up. – robertsky (talk) 07:01, 7 July 2020 (UTC) You're not welcome. I don't come here to dispel you gatekeeping fucks of your ignorance. I come here to reach your readers.[reply]

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Owen_a_ferguson reported by User:Robertsky (Result: ). Thank you. – robertsky (talk) 06:49, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

July 2020[edit]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for persistent and egregious personal attacks both in edit summaries and elsewhere. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

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 ~~~~}}. Bishonen | tålk 07:57, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Owen, that unblock request won't work. You're supposed to replace "Your reason here" in the template with your actual reason for thinking you should be unblocked. Bishonen | tålk 08:01, 7 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Wait, how am I blocked from editing if I can edit this?

@Bishonen: Owen a ferguson (talk) 08:23, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lol I can't believe that fucking worked this website is garbage.

This would have been my response to your question, but you edit conflicted me:

You can only edit this page, you're blocked from all the others. The idea is that you should be able to request unblock on this page, and therefore it's open for you. Er.. what good do you think "Your reason here, Bishonen" is going to do as your reason for asking for unblock? Come on. Do you see the category "requests for unblock" at the bottom of the page? That means by using the unblock template, you have placed this page in a category that admins patrol, and an uninvolved, different, admin, will come here and evaluate your request. You should give them something to evaluate. And you should definitely read the guide to appealing blocks first. Bishonen | tålk 08:30, 7 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

But now it won't be. Instead, since all you do is muck about and waste other people's time, I have revoked your access to editing this page, and you will have to request unblock in another way. Bishonen | tålk 08:30, 7 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

Your ability to edit this talk page has been revoked as an administrator has identified your talk page edits as inappropriate and/or disruptive.

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

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System. If the block is a CheckUser or Oversight block, was made by the Arbitration Committee or to enforce an arbitration decision (arbitration enforcement), or is unsuitable for public discussion, you should appeal to the Arbitration Committee.
Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice.

Bishonen | tålk 08:32, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed your bad faith unblock requests, to avoid wasting people's time on coming here to review them. Bishonen | tålk 08:39, 7 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

I've increased this block to indefinite as there has been quite a lot of escalation in a short period. As noted above, if you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.
