Please lift this unjust IP block
'''I have been a policy-abiding Wikipedia editor. This IP block has been unfairly placed.'''


 * Looks like you might have been caught in a block intended for another person. I will contact the blocking admin, as they will have knowledge of the full context here. Regards, -- Taelus  ( Talk ) 14:38, 13 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Unblocked, sorry for the inconvenience. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:45, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Please lift unjust IP Block
'''Again, this block has been unfairly placed. I have been a policy-abiding editor. Please remove. Thanks.'''

This is the 3rd time. Please lift this unjust IP Block
'''For the third time, this block has been unfairly placed. Please remove and exempt me from these occasional autoblocks. I have been a policy-abiding editor since day one. You may review my edit history to validate this. Thanks.''' -Aclarado (talk) 05:05, 28 August 2010 (UTC)


 * I've granted you IP block exemption, so you should be clear now. —  Tivedshambo   (t/c) 05:33, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking the majority of new pages you review as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. Logan Talk Contributions 20:38, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

This is the 4th time. Please lift this unjust IP Block
'''This block has been unfairly placed. Please remove and exempt me from these occasional autoblocks. I have been a policy-abiding editor since the day I joined Wikipedia. Please review my edit history to validate this. Thanks.''' Aclarado (talk) 13:03, 13 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Please calm down, and stop calling the block against an IP address "unjust" ... it's not directed at you, it's clearly directed at another policy-breaking user. Yes, it's an annoyance, but as you can see it's a requirement to protect the project from someone else.  If you're looking for IP Block exemption, see WP:IPBE ( talk→   BWilkins   ←track ) 13:25, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I will certainly study the page you linked (WP:IPBE). I was just wondering though because I was of the understanding that exemption was granted on 05:33, 28 August 2010 (UTC) by  Tivedshambo   -Aclarado (talk) 14:02, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
 * The IPBE was removed in February 2011, apparently because the IP block itself had changed from a hardblock to a softblock - thus removing the risk of additional autoblocks. Clearly that's changed again - so I'm re-adding the IPBE. You shouldn't have further issues. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 14:49, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I appreciate it. -Aclarado (talk) 15:20, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 6
Hi. When you recently edited Central Philippine University, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Filipino, Graduate and Private (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:56, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 18
Hi. When you recently edited Silliman University, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Independent (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

 * Thank you for calling my attention. I made the necessary edits by removing the link of the term "independent" to the disambiguation page and by inserting the needed clarificatory footnote. Thanks. Aclarado (talk) 05:20, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

IPBE flag removed
Hello, Aclarado. Just so you know, I have removed your IP Block Exemption flag, as it appears that it is no longer required. ; IPBE is only granted on an as-need basis, and when that need no longer exists, the flag may be removed. If you encounter any difficulty editing as a result of this action, please post an unblock request using the template, mentioning the block message you are seeing. If you have any other questions, or you believe that you do still have a need for the IPBE flag, please let me know.

Proposed deletion of File:Website Banner.png


The file File:Website Banner.png has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Redundant to File:Silliman university logo.png, and almost certainly non-free."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Replaceable fair use File:Juanita Amatong photograph.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Juanita Amatong photograph.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:16, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
