Unfairly Blocked

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

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

---

Request reason:

Please provide a reason as to why you should be unblocked.
Change {{unblock}} to {{unblock | reason=your reason here ~~~~}}

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=original unblock reason |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=original unblock reason |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=original unblock reason |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}

I was just complaining on WP:AN and I never even went to WP:ANI Plus for some strange reason the ipblock list keeps saying the block expires tomorrow when I've been blocked for a month (and the message stayed the same!

Warning.

Okay. It's clear that you're not totally ignorant of what you're doing.

Stop it. Or you'll be blocked from editing. This is your warning. DS 14:50, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

A few points

First, it's always a good idea to sign your messages on talk pages.

Second, you become an admin by being nominated by other users, who discuss the issue for a while, and vote on it. If a proper consensus is reached, a "bureaucrat" makes you an admin.

Third, warning you wasn't a mistake. DS 14:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

As requested

For instance, here - [1]. This sort of thing - don't do it. It's a pain in the ass.

Admin voting is at WP:RFA, but if you have a reputation for being a jerk your vote will be discounted. DS 14:20, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Stop.

First, do not change messages on your talk page so as to make it look like you're being praised instead of warned. That's dishonest.

Next - I didn't realize that you would consider "pain in the ***" to be swearing; I apologize. Different people have different standards.

As for linking every single word in a sentence - other people were not fine with it. Your edit was reverted as vandalism. It's the sort of thing that could be excused in a totally new user, but not in someone who has been around for a while and contributed some worthwhile entries - that's what I meant when I said it was clear you weren't totally ignorant of what you were doing.

Redirects

Don't create redirects to nonexistent articles, as you did with The top ten of everything. android79 19:14, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Exterior

Exterior has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this is more of a dictionary definition than an encyclopedia article. Please review WP:WINAD for relevant guidelines. NickelShoe 03:11, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, as you did to Wikipedia:Notability, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Syrthiss 17:32, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
