October 2021[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

October 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm Scope creep. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Paul J. Tikalsky, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. scope_creep^Talk 16:09, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Paul J. Tikalsky[edit]

Hi @PJTikalsky: Don't edit your own again, please, or I'll need to try and get you blocked. It is deeply uncool to add unsourced content to an article, particularly your own article. It is beyond the pale. It is a WP:BLP. scope_creep^Talk 16:13, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of unsourced content[edit]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. scope_creep^Talk 16:09, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

January 2024[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing certain pages (Paul J. Tikalsky) for refusal to communicate.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Valereee (talk) 16:38, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No objection to any other admin unblocking once we've got this editor's attention. Valereee (talk) 16:39, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Valeree,

The changes to my own biography Wiki were to clarify I changed postion, so as to not indicate I currently hold a position, that I do not. I fully understand conflict of interest issues and I manage them very carefully. I do not consider the minor edits to this Wiki to be self serving, advertising, or any other benefit to me personally. Edits were a factual clarification in the biography of a living person. There is a editor named Gråbergs Gråa Sång who removed most of the biography that is meaningful to Wiki readers. Many of those facts are the reason some would search and read the Wiki.

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).

Decline reason:

We have a wider definition of what constitutes promotional editing than you do. — Daniel Case (talk) 07:31, 25 January 2024 (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.
