Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Pogrom. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 21:02, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

 Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 2 weeks for persistently making disruptive edits. 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:. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:06, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * If this is a shared IP address and you are an uninvolved editor with a registered account, you may continue to edit by logging in.


 * Neither does this accurately describe what you did, nor are you allowed to edit articles about this subject at all (cf. WP:A/I/PIA). There are zero reasons for an unblock. I'll provide standardized advice below. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:51, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Understood and I'll adhere as such. You'll see it's my first time editing an entry. General blocks, even warring, go for about 24 - 31 hours. Be proportionate, yes? Unless this is personal? 69.165.153.165 (talk) 21:57, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * There is no such rule, and over 90% of my blocks are for two weeks due to negative experience with shorter blocks placed in response to WP:AIV reports. It is generally highly unlikely that someone needing a block from me will completely have changed their behavior and intentions and suddenly make constructive, much-needed contributions after a day or two. You could prove me wrong by providing examples of constructive contributions you would like to make and which are currently prevented by the block. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:06, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I think I'm a little bit confused by the generalization and circular logic. I'm speaking not as a "someone" but to you directly, qualifying the information that I'm looking to contribute, and from a genuine place: that's the basis of my behaviour. The changed behaviour is better understanding the wiki rules - particularly with contentious topics - format and technical tools. The mistakes on here look to be persistent because I didn't understand the editing process: the reversions were happening quickly, and I thought I was making a technical error. I understand to only publish once I'm confident in the draft. In general, I think this conversation is22 constructive. I understand not to make edits on Palestine-Israel topics, going forward. 69.165.153.165 (talk) 22:29, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * is22 is an error of course 69.165.153.165 (talk) 22:29, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * So which edits would you like to make instead? Please have a look at the WP:INTREF before answering. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:40, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Sure, adding references inline
 * Under "Témiscaming" under the History Header I would include...
 * On December 19, 2013, Parc national d’Opémican was officially open to visitors, featuring several preserved historical buildings from the 1800s, including a blacksmith’s workshop.
 * The town of Témiscaming and Kebaowek First Nation formed a joint First Nation-Municipal Community Economic Development (CED) and touted by policy makers and Indigenous leaders as a demonstration of effective reconciliation efforts.
 * NEXT EDIT: Under "Opémican National Park" correct the "provincial park" to "national park" based on references here: 1, 2 , although it is commonly, and incorrectly listed as a provincial park. 69.165.153.165 (talk) 23:32, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
 * My assumption was incorrect, sorry. Looking at the four edits linked above, I didn't expect this ^ to be the next one(s). ~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:33, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * all good, appreciate the learning 69.165.153.165 (talk) 00:36, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Do you know about the advantages of getting a free account?

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply . It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
 * Create new pages and rename pages
 * Edit semi-protected pages
 * Upload images
 * Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a minimum number of days and made a minimum number of edits. If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (69.165.153.165) is used to identify you instead.
