Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles.

If you edit without a username, your IP address (107.133.164.7) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your comments on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=625605293 your edit] to Art Bell may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just [ edit the page] again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=edit&preload=User:A930913/BBpreload&editintro=User:A930913/BBeditintro&minor=&title=User_talk:A930913&preloadtitle=BracketBot%20–%20&section=new my operator's talk page].

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Art Bell, you may be blocked from editing. MelanieN (talk) 00:04, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

WARNING: You MUST STOP adding information to the Art Bell article claiming that he has died. Even if you think it is true - even if it eventually turns out to be true - we cannot and will not report it here until it has been confirmed by reliable sources. Meanwhile you are engaged in an edit war over this, which is against Wikipedia's rules. You have already re-added this claim (by my count) five times. If you do it again, I will report you for edit warring and you could be blocked from editing. --MelanieN (talk) 00:13, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

I was by his side when this happened. If you block or change this edit again you will be subject to a lawsuit. I contacted our lawyers and they say I am fully within my right to edit this page as I was a personal witness to this. You WILL NOT change or delete my next edit or you will face a civil lawsuit. Thanks

Your recent edits could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. Auric   talk  15:09, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

The afore mentioned action will now move forward against User : MelanieN. My edits were deleted again after expressed explanation of reasons and of the consequences to removing the edit again. I have traced the ip address and the account holder will be held responsible moving forward. I am not pursuing action against Wikipedia, just the user MelanieN.
 * Good luck with that - considering you don't have the ability to do so.  D u s t i *Let's talk!* 15:21, 16 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I am sorry to see that you have brought things to this point. In addition to edit warring, you have now also made a legal threat. Please read the link about legal threats; they are grounds for immediate suspension of your editing priviliges until the threat is withdrawn. I have reported these issues to the Administrator noticeboard. You are free to comment at that notice; it can be found at ‪Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents‬. --MelanieN (talk) 15:22, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Art Bell shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Blocked
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved. In particular, this edit and this edit are not acceptable. You are, of course, free to recourse to legal means. But you cannot do so and edit Wikipedia at the same time. Wikipedia is a collaborative project. See WP:NLT. To be unblocked, clearly state that you will refrain from legal action. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 15:32, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Followup
A couple of followup comments to you, the anonymous editor that we refer to as 107.133.164.7: First, I want you to know that I don't take your comments personally - even though you intended them personally. IMO your actions and reactions here are caused by not understanding how Wikipedia works.

Second, I want you to think about your OWN position in this matter, if what you say is true (and I'm not committing myself one way or the other on that score, although I have my doubts). When a well known person dies, it is up to the family to make the announcement, in a time and manner of their own choosing. That can be really important to the family. If what you say is true, the family has apparently decided not to release the news yet (even after five days?). By slipping the news anonymously into a Wikipedia article, you would be robbing the family of their choice in the matter. Who is the family going to be angry at: you, for going against their wishes and revealing something they have chosen not to reveal yet; or Wikipedia, for preventing you from doing so? --MelanieN (talk) 16:50, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

I am a member of the family and this is how we chose to release it. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.133.164.7 (talk • contribs) 16:53, 16 September 2014‎


 * The only conceivable answer to this is "yeah, right." --MelanieN (talk) 16:58, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

You have yourself chose to be the sole decision maker in how my family edits a page of our relative. That is out of line and not for you to do. The legal action mentioned before will continue until you replace the edits and since now wikipedia itself has become involved and blocked me from editing this page I will have no choice but to now include Wikipedia as a whole to this civil matter. As a person who has donated ALOT of money to wikipedia to keep the page going I am shocked at how I have been treated in this matter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.133.164.7 (talk • contribs) 16:56, 16 September 2014‎


 * Wikipedia has clear policies about content. One of those is that controversial information must be supported by third-party reliable sources - this is especially important in regards to articles about living or recently deceased persons. Without a third-party source, the content cannot remain in Wikipedia. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 16:59, 16 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Honestly, we have no way to verify that you are a family member and not some troll under a bridge trying to spread misinformation. That is why Wikipedia requires information to be published elsewhere by a reliable source first before it can be added to Wikipedia. —Farix (t &#124; c) 19:38, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
