The edits I made were factual and the scandal has been proven by the NCAA. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 13:13, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How was my edit vandalism? The edit was factual and a source was listed showing the scandal and how it was currently being investigated. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 14:01, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You need to cite source (WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:OR and avoid POV edits WP:NPOV. glman (talk) 15:11, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The edit wasn't a POV edit, the information was a fact and stated the team was under investigation. Wanting that information removed would be a POV edit since it is removing facts. I used the source that was listed in another Wiki article as well so how is it good for one page but not another? 207.144.23.222 (talk) 12:39, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Add an asterisk to a national championship is POV. glman (talk) 14:37, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't explain the removal that I was referring too. I stated a fact with a reference and it was removed. That is the one I am asking about. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 15:00, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Which edit are you referring to? glman (talk) 15:04, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The 2023 College Football National Championship was won while Michigan and Head Coach Jim Harbaugh were under investigation for illegal scouting and stealing opposing teams signs.
This statement was made under "Other Championships" referring to the most recent one with a source. This one was removed and I was blocked. I'm asking why this factual statement was removed. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 15:29, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see any edit with that wording. Your last edit added an asterisk to the 2023 championship and included "they were accused of, and had significant evidence against, illegally stealing signs". This ("significant evidence against" and "illegally") is not supported by the source you cited. Other edits also supported your block, an edit soon before that included "The 2023 National Championship was not earned, and will have an asterisk by it for eternity. It was truly a sad day for college football fans and opposing teams having to witness cheaters benefit from their illegal activity." which is textbook POV editing. glman (talk) 15:37, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My last edit was January 25 and after that edit was when I got blocked for 2 or 3 months when my last edit was what I just posted in the previous comment. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 15:58, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, in that edit on Jan. 25, you added information that was not included in the source WP:RS and was not WP:NPOV. This, due to your previous WP:NPOV editing, resulted in another block. Hopefully, when you return you can contribute positively to the mission of Wikipedia! glman (talk) 16:50, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I now completely understand why wiki was never allowed to be used as a source when writing papers in school, it is edited based on opinion of a few that spend their time here checking edits and I see that now. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 16:55, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You inserted your opinion ("illegally"), rather than relying on a WP:RS. I'm glad you understand that and why it's an issue now. Have a great day! glman (talk) 17:05, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"The NCAA presented the University of Michigan with new evidence this week, including that a Michigan booster may have at least partially funded Connor Stalions’ advanced scouting operation and an assistant coach allegedly participated in the destruction of evidence on a computer after the scandal broke"
"The developments comes from a nearly month-long scandal involving Stalions. Officially a “recruiting analyst,” he is alleged by the NCAA of sending friends to the games of future Michigan opponents in an effort to film the sideline play signals. While stealing signs is not prohibited by the NCAA, and is a common practice via game film, television footage or during a game, advanced scouting is prohibited."
"However, the investigation is ongoing and remains in its early phases. It is possible the NCAA could uncover new information, including the knowledge of other staffers or assistant coaches on the Wolverines' staff."
Direct quotes from my source supporting my factual comment stating the championship was won while they were under investigation for illegal scouting. The first comment supports my statement that the NCAA had previously found evidence of cheating. I inserted facts and supported it with a source. If you would take the time to read my source you'd see that. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 17:15, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Does "illegal" appear anywhere in the source? Additionally, adding an asterisk to the 2023 championship, as you previously were told not to do, violates WP:NPOV. Have a great day! glman (talk) 17:19, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They are being investigated for advanced scouting which is prohibited, which means they are being investigated for scouting that goes against the NCAA rules. If the scouting goes against the NCAA rules and is not sanctioned by official rules that would then make the scouting illegal. The source may not have used the exact term "illegal" but I didn't use an exact quote so I didn't quote the source word for word, but saying the advanced scouting would be prohibited is saying the scouting would be illegal to NCAA bylaws. I don't have to quote a source word for word when using it as a source. A source just means that is where the information came from and is what I am referencing. Now if i used "" and was quoting my source then I would of had to use the exact terminology. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 17:44, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Violating NCAA rules is not illegal, as NCAA rules are not laws. Again, your previous NPOV editing on the same article and topic play into your block. If you had edited other pages or asked for the page to be edited on the talk page, things may be different. You are welcome to appeal your block, information can be found here: WP:GAPB. glman (talk) 18:51, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The term illegal has a definition that doesn't pertain to the law, but sports or a game. If you look up illegal on Merriam Webster you'll find the definition "not sanctioned by official rules (as of a game), you'll also find the term prohibited listed as a synonym and the term prohibited is listed in the article I used as a source. So essentially my post was edited by you be
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/illegal
Here is the link to show you the defintion of illegal and how it has other uses other than just describing laws. 207.144.23.222 (talk) 18:58, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are welcome to appeal your block - WP:GAPB. glman (talk) 19:16, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
