I want to know why I was blocked
[edit]After I was notified that I would be blocked from Wikipedia if I did not stop vandalizing Wikipedia, I went and made constructive edits. Later I was notified that I have been blocked and I want to know what edit has caused me to be blocked after the last warning. I believe that the edits I made after the warning have been constructive and I want to know what I did wrong.
- Many of the reasons why you were blocked are in the warnings that you removed from this talk page. Removing warnings fails to create an illusion of innocence, as any experienced editor can look at the page history. Many editors look askance at someone removing warnings without archiving them, however, because this is often perceived as evasive behavior.
- Although you may have shifted from vandalism to more constructive edits, you still failed to follow Wikipedia policies & guidelines. That, coupled with earlier disruptive edits, simply caught up with you.
- I would suggest that you restore the {{Welcome-menu}} that had many links useful links, such as Contributing to Wikipedia, The five pillars of Wikipedia, Neutral point of view, Reliable sources, Verifiability, Citing sources, No original research, & other policies & guidelines.
- During the time in which you are blocked, it would be a good thing to familiarize yourself with these links so that you can be a knowledgeable editor who can then demonstrate that you have learned to contribute constructively by adhering to Wikipedia's pillars, policies, & guidelines.
