User talk:The Antichrome

Welcome!

Hello, The Antichrome, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Category:Wikipedians on IP6, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication. For information on how to request a new article that can be created by someone else, see Requested articles. If you are stuck, come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can help you through the processes.

New to Wikipedia? Please consider taking a look at our introductory tutorial or reviewing the contributing to Wikipedia page to learn the basics about editing. Below are a few other good pages about article creation.

Redirecting talk pages

Hello Antichrome. I noticed that you were redirecting talk pages of IP users to User_talk:121.127.192.0/19. IP ranges don't normally have a talk page on their own, so there is no need to redirect the talk page of every IP in that /19 range to that talk page. Would you mind explaining why you are doing this? --*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 09:55, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a dynamically assigned network. It is to assist in identifying and communicating with users of that network, and to help other editors understand and find edits made by users of the network, who may use use more than one address. Your conclusion does not follow from your premise. The Antichrome (talk) 10:00, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Again, this is not how things are normally done here. One IP address will have a single talk page, and there's not usually a need for a centralized talk page for ranges, which won't notify the users anyway. There are many other dynamically assigned networks, it's no use to create such redirects en masse. Please stop. --*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 10:02, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm on this range and have made edits on some of these numbers. If someone wants to talk about an edit I made, this way I can more easily monitor it. There is plenty of use and need. The Antichrome (talk) 10:07, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Other regular users can discover the central talk themselves when they find they talk page redirected and so learn to use it in future. The Antichrome (talk) 10:08, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't follow you here, /19 is a big range (

2^{19}

addresses, correct?), and you intend to redirect everything to the /19 talk page? You've registered an account now, and you should just be able to use this talk page for discussions, you won't have the issue of switching IPs and not seeing the same talk page every time you visit Wikipedia. --*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 10:12, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I only made this account to report a bug through phabricator. I do not indent on using it. Only addresses seen to make edits will be redirected. The Antichrome (talk) 10:14, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you can explain to me again how it is not useful to those IP users when one of them has just explained to you how it is in fact useful to them, I might consider listening to your opinion. No it is not policy or practice, merely your unsolicited opinion. The Antichrome (talk) 10:13, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well for one, if the talk pages of those IP addresses are redirected, then they won't get a notification, at all. Second, it will be a much more confusing mess. User warnings will be placed on the central talk page whether or not it's relevant to the IP user reading it.

Consider reading Wikipedia:Talk_page_guidelines#Creating_talk_pages - though it's not policy, it's still a guideline. Talk pages are not created simply for future use. --*Fehufangą (✉ Talk · ✎ Contribs) 10:25, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That is a blatant misconstruing of a guideline that did not have this usage in mind. Anyway, they are being created for the present purpose of redirecting them, not for future usage. The Antichrome (talk) 10:31, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

June 2022

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. — TNT (talk • she/her) 13:29, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

By your own admission above, you are "not here to build an encyclopedia" and are instead creating a mess which I've had to clean up — TNT (talk • she/her) 13:31, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I was obliged to create to report a bug I encountered while editing wikipedia. This bug prevented me from linking to a matter important to the Gaeltacht covered in both English and Irish wikipedia. I made it to report a bug to improve wikipedia. What I admitted to is preferring to edit whilst not logged in. You are deliberately misconstruing my statements and ignoring the constructive edits I have made globally as an IP user. The Antichrome (talk) 13:36, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Go edit logged out then, just not here. — TNT (talk • she/her) 13:44, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

My stating that it is not my intention to regularly log in to this account does not give you the right to prevent me from doing so.

The article matter in question is the Irish Gaeltachts national radio service in the national language. It has been given a mid-level importance on the English language wikipedias Irish portal. Naturally it is far more important to the Irish language wikipedia, being the most popular and national radio service. Your proposed deletion of my Gaeldom category seems to be solely based on your prejudiced judgement of my interests in wikipedia. The Antichrome (talk) 13:44, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
