My block to 65.116.102.4
It was my decision to block said IP (65.116.102.4 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log)) for 2.718 months because of the following reasons:
- The block log indicated that this was the user's 9th block.
- The user's sixth block by Hall Monitor was for 3 months.
- Vandalism to e (Thus meriting 2.718 months).
Now, if you look at the block log, you will see that I unblocked said IP after trying to block for 2.718 months. The server misinterpreted that to mean 27 months, meaning that the block would expire sometime in 2008. I unblocked, and changed it to 83 days.
Sorry for any inconviences this block has cost you, but I too also edited on a school computer, only to have it blocked twice for 3 months apiece. Needless to say, my editing habits were affected.
If you have any further questions, please leave me a note at my talk page. Ian Manka Talk to me! 17:46, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- Also, when writing notes on peoples talk pages, be sure to sign all of your posts with ~~~~. This helps by automatically producing a link to your user page, and thus, having an easy link to your talk page. Thanks, and happy editing! Ian Manka Talk to me! 17:50, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
- One last thing -- if you are upset by not being able to edit, feel free to look at the Wikipedia:Blocking policy proposal. Ian Manka Talk to me! 18:53, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Re:Open source video games template
Yeah, I agree. I made it because I want free software games to be more accessible and documented. Sadly, only so many free games make it onto Wikipedia without being deleted, but that is what the Libregamewiki is for (well, for entirely free games that is). Shame people try and stop me from linking to that external resource, as well as the other FreeGameDev network sites such as Free Gamer. If only one single god-damn GNU/Linux/free software magazine would mention that site. Then it would be perfectly verifiable! Comrade Graham (talk) 20:40, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Zarel,
Just out of curiosity, why did you deleted my recent addition to the article entitled 'The Game (mind game)'?
A reply would be much appreciated,

- My edit summary said "Unsourced".
- Specifically, you wrote things like "In North America, a widely accepted rule states that Chuck Norris replaces the role of the British Prime Minister." While not necessarily completely wrong, I don't think it's "widely accepted" - at least not enough to merit a mention in a Wikipedia article.
- How the rules work when two Wikipedia editors disagree like this is you need to cite sources. Basically, if it's really widely accepted like you say it is, there should be sources like newspaper articles, or academic papers, or very trustworthy websites that say so. Wikipedia:Citing sources talks in greater detail about what sort of things count as sources. It's pretty complicated, though, but if you can find me a newspaper article or something like that, I'd be happy to help you add it to the article.
- You might think this policy is a bit biased against adding things to articles. This is true, and for it, I am sorry. But it's the only way to be reasonably confident that we don't have wrong information in our articles. :/
- By the way, you sign your messages by adding --~~~~ to the end.
- For instance, if I type:

- It will look like this:

- I would have left your edits alone if you simply removed whatever content from the article you disagreed with. That's not what you did, though, and what I did was revert an out-of-process deletion that circumvented WP:AfD. I understand that you're trying to use a technicality in an interpretation of how merging and reverting works, and perhaps that's a valid interpretation of policy. But all I'm saying here is, what you're doing here is essentially deleting an article. Can't you just list the article on AfD first? --Zarel (talk⋅c) 01:06, 23 May 2011 (UTC)]

Thanks for uploading File:MITY logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:36, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
