Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Vegetarianism. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. ''See the article history. The definition has been in place for a considerable time by consensus of numerous editors, and would not be changed with the addition of a non-mainstream source. Please practice editing in your sandbox and ask for help at the Teahouse. '' Zefr (talk) 04:21, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use talk pages for inappropriate discussion, as you did at Talk:Vegetarianism, you may be blocked from editing. Ian.thomson (talk) 21:59, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for disruptively failing to understand basic communication, using the talk page to debate matters with no academic support, and generally wasting everyone's time pushing for changes based on that inability to comprehend. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. 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:.

 * You've been trying to edit an article based on your inability to understand basic words in it as well as your lack of awareness of English grammar. You argued that vegetarianism isn't a practice because eating vegetables is not a skill, and that vegetarians aren't abstaining from meat because they're somehow not the ones stopping themselves from eating meat.  You keep insisting that it's improper to explain something with a negation, which is utterly wrong .  You've tried to push for a definition of vegetarian of eating vegetables (even though plenty of non-vegetarians people eat both meat and veg).
 * The meanings of "abstain" and "practice" were explained to you -- you ignored the explanations.
 * You filed an inappropriate RFC, and the people who responded directed you to past consensuses regarding the lede, which you've clearly ignored.
 * You had to ask what "you" meant.
 * The only reasonable conclusion is that you're a troll or else are completely incompetent. The only other person I've encountered whose English was so confidently wrong was an advocate of Scientology Study Tech -- and I taught EFL. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:23, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

I do not believe my edits were disruptive. I edited the page with a verifiable source. Then moved it to the talk page and asked for commentary. Vegetarianism is foremost not a philosophy. Read my comments on the talk page that are closed. It is not abstinence. Meat eaters abstain from eating vegetation. This is made evident not only by logic but by study of our food chain foundation. SQL what is Ian.thomson referring to, if there is a Wikipedia essay is it legitimate. I don't know incompetency. - 72.79.34.240 (talk) 22:39, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
 * You don't get to decide if your edits were disruptive. "I don't know incompetency" is yet another example of why you should not be editing the English Wikipedia.  Ian.thomson (talk) 22:41, 3 December 2018 (UTC)

What part do you consider disruptive? I am following guidelines. If you noticed the discussion is on hold and I am asking SQL for their input. - 72.79.34.240 (talk) 22:50, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
 * It's been repeatedly explained to you. You've demonstrated that explaining things for you does no good.  I'm revoking talk page access. Ian.thomson (talk) 22:58, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
