Commas after years in dates

Please note, it is standard practice to always place a comma after the year when writing it in MDY format... ex: "I wrote a message on July 31, 2022, to Defcool1." If you need any help or have any questions, feel free to ask. Happy editing! - Adolphus79 (talk) 04:58, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You requested admin help, but don't say what it is you want help with. I would highly advise you to heed the warnings you have been given.

The questions I would like to ask have not been addressed on Wikipedia. What is your opinion on double spacing sentences? Defcool1 (talk) 06:52, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I do not have this page watchlisted, so I didn't know you were asking me a question. If you are asking what I think about double spacing articles, I don't see a benefit to doing so. 331dot (talk) 18:10, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not to be lengthy, much of this is about Bloom. The user participates in Wiki Bowl and best guess is they use double spacing (intermittently and haphazardly) to increase the number of edits and the article size.

Bloom is inconsistent in both spacing (at times using both in a single article) and in other ways. The expanded articles often have too much information. Defcool1 (talk) 18:37, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's something you would need to take up with whomever runs "WikiBowl"(never heard of it). You can also attempt to discuss your concerns with that user, and if nothing changes, go to WP:ANI with your concerns. 331dot (talk) 18:42, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose you could bring it to ANI. You also could get involved without ANI providing it's something you're inclined to do. I have no issue with the Bowl. I only mentioned it as a motive Bloom may have.

Are you able to see qualities Bloom has? Bringing copious amounts of information to articles is not all bad however these articles are padded. The spacing is certainly another problem. There are others. Defcool1 (talk) 19:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not as deeply involved in this as you are, and I don't think it is wise on my part to let you bring me into this further. If you want to take this further, with all due respect, you need to bring it to ANI. 331dot (talk) 20:27, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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.

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=Why? [[User:Defcool1|Defcool1]] ([[User talk:Defcool1#top|talk]]) 00:59, 20 October 2022 (UTC) |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=Why? [[User:Defcool1|Defcool1]] ([[User talk:Defcool1#top|talk]]) 00:59, 20 October 2022 (UTC) |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=Why? [[User:Defcool1|Defcool1]] ([[User talk:Defcool1#top|talk]]) 00:59, 20 October 2022 (UTC) |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
