Nevertheless, people tried. Over and over and over and over again, right here. It didn't make any difference at all. Your unblock request doesn't give me any hope that we can be absolutely sure you'll never again violate copyright, either. Unblocking you would put the Wikipedia project in jeopardy, so I'm declining your request. [[User:Yamla|Yamla]] ([[User talk:Yamla|talk]]) 18:18, 4 February 2017 (UTC)}}

{{unblock reviewed | 1=You don't know. I already know what the block is like. I already feel punished, and I will not do that again because I know what the mistake was, and I know the consequences. You don't understand: You need to know your mistake before you fix it. Sending links to Wikipedia policy links is often useless, because the policy is usually hidden under thousands of words of policy on that policy page. Now that I know the mistakes, and I know the punishment of them, I will comply with the mistake. I just need to be able to know what I can and can't do on Wikipedia. Which is what I did. Do you understand that no one is perfect. Throwing out people just because they make mistakes will soon lead to (1) A Wikipedia Oligopoly, or (2) A Wikipedia where the only edits are made by bots, which are not perfect either. Especially when blocks are easier than ever before. Did I make that clearer. One last note: If you do unblock me, should you review edits that I make and only let some go through. I'd appreciate that. I am happy to be given a supervised second chance. Thanks. | decline = I'm sorry, but I just don't think you get it. It's not about making one or two mistakes. It's about your total disregard for essential Wikipedia policy on copyright issues, despite multiple users trying to steer you in the right direction.

:David, Don't tell only parts of the story, I offered to mentor you until you decided to then backstab me, now {{ping|Nick}}'s block is pretty valid, you were told to stop, by many others. Now, do yourself a favor and <b><u>STOP</u></b> digging a deeper hole. I tried to prevent this but you completely disregarded my help, this is no-ones fault but your own. I'm sorry I've tried to AGF but with this continued behavior I cannot anymore. I suggest reading every policy and guideline and come back again and try to ask for a unblock in a few months/years explaining what you did wrong and what you will do to stop the behavior, and hope an admin will if they feel its the right thing to do, unblock you. While I do believe that your first couple times were in fact in good faith the fact you continued shows to many editors a sign of bad faith towards Wikipedia.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Euclayptus notabilis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 "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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. — Smjg (talk) 22:29, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Kaskaskia–Cahokia Trail, did not appear constructive and has been undone. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

Your contributed article, Pullen Pullen

[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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Pullen Pullen. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Pullen Pullen Reserve. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Pullen Pullen Reserve – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "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, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Meiloorun (talk) 🍁 00:30, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

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 Kaskaskia–Cahokia Trail requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://monroecountynews.net/county-designates-kaskaskia-cahokia-trail/. 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 or other printed material 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 "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.

(David Dylan (talk) 00:41, 12 January 2017 (UTC)) the copyvios have been removed (David Dylan (talk) 00:41, 12 January 2017 (UTC))[reply]

Removing copyright violations takes more than what you have done. That is an overly-close paraphrasing. You need to completely rewrite it in your own words.Meters (talk) 03:35, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Rajapruk University, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Stop removing the speedy. Let an admin look at it and decide.

Many of your changes are ungrammatical, have changed the meaning of the original, or are so badly written that I would have undone the edits if it wouldn't have restored the original copyvio. I'm sorry to have to say this, but it appears to me that your English writing skills are not sufficient to rewrite this article properly. Meters (talk) 04:06, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @David Dylan:! Please stop removing speedy deletion tags for copyrighted material until the copyright violation is actually remedied.

@David Dylan: I am honestly not sure what you are trying to say but the issue here is not multiple edits, its the removal of copyright violation notification and tags when the copyright violation itself was not dealt with.

Hi David Dylan and thanks for the work you do here. I have a request: Please don't assess speedy deletions, like you did at Driver's licenses in Trinidad and Tobago. Please leave this job to administrators familiar with dealing with copyright violations so that (1) the article can be properly and promptly cleaned and (2) revision deletion of the page history can be done.

@David Dylan: Hello, I am Zppix an editor who just happened to see this in recent changes, and I've looked at your user talk and I want to respectfully give you some advice. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE OFFENSE.
  • Do not remove Speedy Deletion tags unless, you added it and it was by mistake, you have a VALID reason behind removing it. AND for the love of Jimbo don't remove it if you created the page.
  • PLEASE read up on Wikipedia policies, and ask questions if you have them, many Wikipedians will be more then happily help you out!
  • DO NOT determine whether or not speedy deletion tags are valid or not (excluding the criterion included above)
  • PLEASE do not sign the beginning of your messages on talk pages only the end using ~~~~
  • Do not be uncivil towards others
  • Finally, DO NOT BE DISRUPTIVE OR VANDALISE (even if you haven't before this is just something i must emphasise), You will be caught and it will be reverted if you attempt it (this is not an attack FYIT just stating facts read my warning above this list)

If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ Talk 14:20, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm willing to mentor you and help you out to best of my ability and I'm sure I could work something out with those aforementioned editors to give you a second (but monitored) chance, you seem like an editor that does stuff in good-faith and i see some potential, but I also can see that you may need some help.

I'm not trying to be uncivil to User:David Dylan or to chase him away, and I agree that this is not a case of bad faith editing. but he really does not seem to get the copyright issue. This is becoming a WP:CIR issue. He cannot copy material verbatim. He cannot simply change the order of a few words and claim that he has addressed the copyright issue. He cannot simply change a few words and claim that he has addressed the copyright issues. There have been multiple incidents pointed out by several editors, and yet he continues.

No, I didn't think you had, Zppix. That was more in response to David Dylan's suggestion that I was biting a new comer. Now that he's calling it harassment I'm done making suggestions to help him. I'll stay off this page unless I template him or report him to ANI, Meters (talk) 22:19, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Zppix: I do not understand the copyvio problem, as Wikipedia is full of lists, and Wikipedia has to be verifiable, when I place sourced lists on Wikipedia, the lists are removed because of copyvios; giving a free pass only to unverifiable lists. Wikipedia must be verifiable, with lists as no exeption. Lists are part of Wikipedia, so why did, out of the necessity for verifiability, verifiable lists get deleted, because their verifiability triggers the Earwig Copyvio Detector (David Dylan (talk) 22:31, 18 January 2017 (UTC))[reply]

First off copyvio is not verifiable you must use the references you get the info from and write it completely in your own words meaning if a references said "Bob ate an Western Pumpkin Pie" you wouldnt use that you would instead say "The Western Pumpkin Pie was eaten by Bob." Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ Talk 01:34, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Zppix: So how does that play into making a decent list. (David Dylan (talk) 01:46, 19 January 2017 (UTC))[reply]

Please read WP:LIST --Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ Talk 01:47, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Zppix: That didn't show the copyright implications for lists. The fact that it is impossible to reword a list can be interpreted as a copyvio, as the proper nouns that make up the list cannot be reworded. And it has. Try rewording "Massachusetts" and stating it in your own words. Most lists are made completely out of proper nouns.


@Meters: No, because it was you that said that my mistake on Starbucks was disruptive/test/vandalism — Preceding unsigned comment added by David Dylan (talkcontribs) 23:00, January 18, 2017 (UTC)

Don't ping me. I've said I will stay off your page. I will not respond to any further threads or pings.
As for this one, I did not call it vandalism. I did not call it a test. I did not template you. I did not pipe it to WP:G2.

Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. I've offered to mentor you, but immediately doing this afterwards is unacceptable, I'm sorry David but everyone has to follow the policies around here.

[edit]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at East-West Corridor. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. The source you added did not support the claims. Please don't add random inline links. Meters (talk) 06:59, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Meters: Then ask the administrator of SuggestBot to not add any unreferenced sites that have no supporting web.

@David Dylan:, Meters has said over and over he will not post to your talk page unless its to template you or required by policy or a Wikipedia process (such as AfD), and don't blame SuggestBot for your editing habits. You are the one who clicked save changes, your the one whom typed your edit in the edit window. The bot did nothing but suggest articles based on YOUR contributions. I suggest you read up on policies and editing guidelines before I start considering WP:CIR to be in affect towards you (and yes, I'm even trying to assume Good Faith.)

Stop pinging meters has he has previously asked. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ Talk 13:59, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Signing your posts

[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Wikipedia:Teahouse, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 20:51, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright problem icon Your addition to Nashua, Acton & Boston Railroad has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of 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 material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions 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. You are going to get yourself blocked if you keep copying material from the web onto Wikipedia. Stop doing that. Meters (talk) 00:54, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Nashua, Acton & Boston Railroad. Repeated copyright violation. Once again, that is WP:PARAPHRASE. You cannot simple change a few words of text you copy from the web and say that it is not a copyright violation. Meters (talk) 04:44, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]


What? I saw that most of the content was reworded. Did you send this a long time ago and I just got it. But please feel free to do revision deletion. Also feel free to reword the content yourself, if you think I did a sloppy job. Thanks. (David Dylan (talk) 19:40, 24 January 2017 (UTC))[reply]

After removing the almost verbatim copyvio and excessively close paraphrasing there is virtually nothing left of this article. Meters (talk) 04:55, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed my A7 request. The claim that it existed is a credible claim of significance. Note that that is not the same as showing that it is notable. You still need to add reliable sources to show its notability. And the ref you currently have, NERAIL, is just an internet mailing list and is not a reliable source. See WP:RS, particularly WP:USERGENERATED. Meters (talk) 06:10, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Chrissymad: Please revert your contribution to Nashua, Acton and Boston Railroad, as you should not cencor encyclopedic content. Please then reword it in your own words. Thanks.

The article Nashua, Acton & Boston Railroad has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Several dozen revisions worth of copyvio/heavy paraphrasing and purpose of article is not entirely clear. Perhaps WP:BLOWITUP.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Blocked

[edit]

I'm sorry to inform you, but I have indefinitely blocked your account. The continual addition of copyright content from external websites continues to be a significant problem which you are continually failing to remedy. I appreciate you continue to try and reword content, changing a word here or there, but the core content you copy remains so substantially similar that the original copyright continues to exist.

When you write content on Wikipedia, you must write that content, from the ground up, using your own sentences and paragraphs, not just changing a word or two. If you are writing content properly, you should really be merging content from multiple sources into one completely new piece of text, which has few if any similarities to any of the original sources you have used whilst researching a subject.

I hope that you can read our policies on copyright, close paraphrasing and the like thoroughly. The block, whilst indefinite, can be lifted and you can resume editing when we are happy you are no longer a plagiarism concern for Wikipedia. Nick (talk) 00:06, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi nick. I want to inform you that I am a child. I know what my mistake is now. I should focus on rewording SENTENCES, not WORDS. If this valid. Could you give me a second chance. Could you teach me a tad more policy. Could you unblock me? David Dylan (talk) 00:43, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I experience time different from you. David Dylan (talk) 00:45, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have read up on those policies. David Dylan (talk) 00:55, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Nick: Do you hear me. David Dylan (talk) 00:45, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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).

David Dylan (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I don't know why I was blocked without proper teaching of U.S copyright law, and that of Virginia. I was blocked without proper mentorship. I have now mentored myself. I am looking for someone to unlock and supervise me, that will tell me what my mistake is, if I make one.

Decline reason:

It's your responsibility to understand and follow our policies, not our responsibility to teach you. Nevertheless, people tried. Over and over and over and over again, right here. It didn't make any difference at all. Your unblock request doesn't give me any hope that we can be absolutely sure you'll never again violate copyright, either. Unblocking you would put the Wikipedia project in jeopardy, so I'm declining your request. Yamla (talk) 18:18, 4 February 2017 (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. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

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).

David Dylan (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

You don't know. I already know what the block is like. I already feel punished, and I will not do that again because I know what the mistake was, and I know the consequences. You don't understand: You need to know your mistake before you fix it. Sending links to Wikipedia policy links is often useless, because the policy is usually hidden under thousands of words of policy on that policy page. Now that I know the mistakes, and I know the punishment of them, I will comply with the mistake. I just need to be able to know what I can and can't do on Wikipedia. Which is what I did. Do you understand that no one is perfect. Throwing out people just because they make mistakes will soon lead to (1) A Wikipedia Oligopoly, or (2) A Wikipedia where the only edits are made by bots, which are not perfect either. Especially when blocks are easier than ever before. Did I make that clearer. One last note: If you do unblock me, should you review edits that I make and only let some go through. I'd appreciate that. I am happy to be given a supervised second chance. Thanks.

Decline reason:

I'm sorry, but I just don't think you get it. It's not about making one or two mistakes. It's about your total disregard for essential Wikipedia policy on copyright issues, despite multiple users trying to steer you in the right direction. Like User:Yamla, I have zero faith based on your unblock request and your history that you will edit Wikipedia in a responsible way. ♠PMC(talk) 19:47, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Premeditated Chaos: Do you understand that, with the exception of most drug dealers, when people are punished, they don't want to be punished again. I was only asking for a userspace page where I can easily PROPOSE edits to pages. Also, I was trying to be steered in the right direction when Zppix talk offered to mentor me. Then he was gone.

The proof is right here David Dylan (talk) 20:56, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

David, Don't tell only parts of the story, I offered to mentor you until you decided to then backstab me, now @Nick:'s block is pretty valid, you were told to stop, by many others. Now, do yourself a favor and STOP digging a deeper hole. I tried to prevent this but you completely disregarded my help, this is no-ones fault but your own. I'm sorry I've tried to AGF but with this continued behavior I cannot anymore. I suggest reading every policy and guideline and come back again and try to ask for a unblock in a few months/years explaining what you did wrong and what you will do to stop the behavior, and hope an admin will if they feel its the right thing to do, unblock you. While I do believe that your first couple times were in fact in good faith the fact you continued shows to many editors a sign of bad faith towards Wikipedia.
