User talk:Antoshi

Your article
Your article appears to be about yourself. This is known as "vanity" and is not permitted on Wikipedia. I've undeleted your article so that you can move it to your userpage if you'd like (that's permitted), but I'm afraid that autobiographies are frowned upon. &mdash; Dan | Talk 20:37, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, I copied the content of the article to User:Antoshi (if you don't want it there, of course, feel free to replace it with whatever you'd like). I hope you'll continue to contribute to Wikipedia, but please read What Wikipedia is not and Your first article to ensure that your content isn't deleted. &mdash; Dan | Talk 20:42, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * I did read the whole article about Autobiographies before I posted the article, and what I have seems to be permissible. It's not really "vanity", and more about what I have a personal involvement in. What wikipedia is not states, "you are free to write about yourself or projects you have a strong personal involvement in." --Antoshi 20:44, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * This means that, if you're particularly interested in programming or Scouting or cars, you should write articles on C plus plus, Philmont Scout Ranch, and Scuderia Ferrari. Your article appears to be about yourself only; that's the purpose of your userpage. If you're interested in Pokemon, please feel free to edit and write articles on Pokemon, but you should only write about the game, and not about yourself or a character you created. &mdash; Dan | Talk 20:55, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, that doesn't seem fair. Why is it that a character I created not applicable to something I have a personal involvement in? --Antoshi 20:59, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

re: Deletion
Hi, I deleted the page Antoshi (which was a redirect to your user page) because redirects between namespaces (from an article to a user page, for example) shouldn't generally be done on Wikipedia. If you've seen other users do that, you should have listed them for deletion as per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. - ulayiti (talk)  07:17, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

MapleStory
I didn't intend to revert the changes to the Game Issues section - I didn't see that in the diff as it was further down the page. For section titles, the WP:MOS suggests that it should be in lower case unless it is a proper noun. So, I've reverted my changes to MapleStory World and Cash Shop, but left Character classes with a lower case c. Hope this makes sense, and thanks for cleaning it up - it's such a messy article. enochlau (talk) 00:18, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Please stop creating new userboxes
There is currently on moratorium on the creation of new userboxes pending final policy decision on what is the best way to delete all of them. So please stop creating new ones. In addition, the ones you are creating were simply duplications of extant userboxes and thus entirely unnecessary. -- Cyde Weys 02:43, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Actually, the point of Wikipedia is to write an encyclopedia. There's certainly nothing about the point of Wikipedia that has anything to do with creativity or userboxes. (Actually, creativity, at least in article space, is discouraged). You can have userboxes ... if you really want, but they shouldn't be in Template: namespace, which the ones you were creating were. A better solution though is to just use prose. I.e. type something on your user page, "I'm a fan of professional wrestling", or whatever. -- Cyde Weys 02:49, 22 February 2006 (UTC)


 * But, really, there's no point in saying "the point of Wikipedia is to write an encyclopedia", otherwise Userboxes never would've been created, and we would have never even had user pages. Yes, Wikipedia is about creativity, what's wrong with you? Wikipedia was created off of one man's creativity, to make an encyclopedia that everyone can update. So, please stop passing it off as something bland and boring where everyone is supposed to do things the same, and remember the point of being bold. --Antoshi 02:59, 22 February 2006 (UTC)


 * You can create your own userboxes if you really want to, just don't create a new page in Template: to do so; simply put the code directly onto your userpage. And in regards to this whole userbox thing, you might want to read up on "that one man" himself actually says about these things; see here.  -- Cyde Weys  03:03, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Copyvio deletion of BabeRuthSox.jpeg
Hi Antoshi, this image was deleted after a listing at WP:CP. I've also deleted the replacement that you uploaded.

Copyright protection depends not only when the image was created, but when it was published. Since this image wasn't pulbished until 1989 it's still under copyright protection. from :
 * Works in existence but not published or copyrighted on January 1, 1978: Works that had been created before the current law came into effect but had neither been published nor registered for copyright before January 1, 1978, automatically are given federal copyright protection. The duration of copyright in these works will generally be computed in the same way as for new works: the life-plus-70 or 95/120-year terms will apply to them as well. However, all works in this category are guaranteed at least 25 years of statutory protection. The law specifies that in no case will copyright in a work of this sort expire before December 31, 2002, and if the work is published before that date the term will extend another 45 years, through the end of 2047.

Please don't upload it again unless you can show an earlier publishing date. --Duk 06:09, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

Re: NPOV on Griefer

I removed the paragraph in question because phrases like "nearly suffered a career-ending bump", "Luckily, he did not" and "The extent of his injury is unknown" are, respectively, speculation, opinion and redundancy. The paragraph had no place in a neutral encyclopedia based upon confirmed facts. McPhail 09:30, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Your view that the bump was nearly "career-ending" is an opinion, nothing more, and thus has no place on Wikipedia. "The extent of his injury is unknown" is redundant in that the extent of the injury would presumably be mentioned in the paragraph were it known; the absence of such a divulgence indicates that the details are unknown.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:696109312 m.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:696109312 m.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Fair use rationale for Image:Gunz0148gp2.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gunz0148gp2.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:29, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:AcclaimBots.gif
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:AcclaimBots.gif. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:08, 7 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Don't know if there's an applicable WP:MOS guideline for it, but I simply don't like seeing interwiki links in an article. External, non-Wikimedia project information should always be in the external links section, not in the article itself.

Thanks for uploading Image:Screen04.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

License tagging for File:TransformiceLogo.png
Thanks for uploading File:TransformiceLogo.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 21:07, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Repost of Transformice
A tag has been placed on requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, because it appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion process. If you can indicate how it is different from the previously posted material, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page.

RE: Banana Skins
Just wanted to maybe make you feel slightly better by saying that I agree with your analysis of a mutual friend of ours who seems to take delight in lets say a rather dogmatic application of the 'guidelines' of wikipedia. Wikipedia is not and will never be what it sets out to be, and the unusual and esoteric content (ie that which cannot be found in any of the other myriad 'encyclopedic' sources, which is real but not 'notable') is what makes it interesting, even if just to those few who are involved in that area in 'real life'. He talks of 'historical facts', which is of course utter rubbish, and even if it were true which 'historian' exactly is the expert? Not him, as he chooses to edit heavily handed, subjects which he has no interest in. I won't bore you with the details of my case, suffice it to say it left a nasty taste in my mouth as I realized just how egocentric some of these 'editors' (probably types that never produce original content in their lives) are, and what advantages it gives them to just be judge and jury, having nothing to go on trial for themselves. --Filmmaker2011 (talk) 11:53, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

That was a little uncalled for, why did you trash my writing?
Why did you take out the section I wrote on the IJJI page? I understand that it didn't have that many sources, but it did have sources and I also understand that I'm not a professional writer that was writing a pro piece.. but I did write of a historic event that DID happen and I was documenting it. It answers a big question.. why did IJJI switch over to Aeria? That's a pretty big question and I strongly(almost without any doubt at all) believe that IJJI switched to Aeria because their website was hacked. I find it disrespectful of you to entirely scratch away my historic documentation on IJJI. It would've been much better to edit it for me to turn it into a Wikipedia-ready piece rather than to just throw it off a cliff. I'd rather know some history than to know nothing as others too, I'm sure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zr0sec (talk • contribs) 19:01, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Alright, fair enough.
Well.. considering that sign-ups were no longer excepted exactly 1 year after ijji.com was domain hijacked, I find it VERY coincidental(probable). Also, judging based on the outcome of the court case.. my belief is that Aeria and IJJI(NHN USA) formed some sort of partnership where they have a business contract established which most likely agrees NHN USA gets a percentage of the income from the games that Aeria acquired from IJJI.. I was just trying to shed some light on what happened. I understand the piece was biased, but any "hacking"/"hack" piece is going to be biased.. especially if it is an emotional one. I am a strong believer in online freedoms and NHN USA seemed to be silencing me and restricting me. I snapped and now I have more felony charges than I'd like. It was stupid and I was 17. I'm now much more ethical and have better control of myself.

Zr0sec (talk) 05:38, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Destroying history..?
Why do you keep erasing my posting that sheds light on some solid history? If you're going to have the balls to repetitively remove my piece, how about you do something productive like research into it and write about what it looks like happened based on all the YouTube videos and posts on a bunch of gaming community forums? Rather than erase a historic event/story, why not go get the "unbiased" version and add it? That would be acceptable to me, but to just undo my piece claiming not credible without you even researching it is just incompetent. So.. if is not credible or well written, make it credible? If you look at a house and there is a broken window, you don't destroy the house to build a new one. You fix what is wrong with it. Try to fix things rather than just throwing them out completely. Maybe even give some tips to the contributor rather than be so negatively criticizing making a smart-ass remark like "Just horribly written, absolutely worst sh*t.".. I know you didn't say that exactly, but that's the general idea you were getting across. All you've done to the page is crushed bits of history that I personally feel you're trying to cover up. What do you contribute? Show me what you bring to the table.. do you really just go around and trash writings and leave cocky comments for the reason? If so, I hope you feel really proud man.

The Nexus (professional wrestling)
Sorry I'm now just getting back to you, but there is some precedent to having such a "Legacy" section to wrestling faction pages. The Spirit Squad page also as an "Aftermath" section, even though besides Dolph Ziggler none of the members went on to do anything solo in WWE. (Although Mike Mondo has had a successful singles career in Ring of Honor.) Like the Spirit Squad as well as The Shield, the Nexus had guys that were new to WWE and with a handful of independent circuit exceptions like Daniel Bryan, were mostly making their professional wrestling debut. It's not like the nWo, DX, or Aces & Eights where its a bunch of established wrestlers forming a faction together, or even the Four Horseman and Evolution where a couple of established guys team up with some younger up-and-coming stars to help get them over. I think it warrants having the "Legacy" section around.

With that said, I do agree on having the abbreviated version you initially had. I do tend to go on about things too much sometimes. Jgera5 (talk) 18:31, 16 November 2013 (UTC)

WrestleMania 29
Not sure I'm seeing your problem with the poster thing. All official graphic promos use the "NY/NJ" logo. Noting this fact isn't meant to suggest the show was called this instead of WrestleMania 29, if that's what you're thinking. If it's something else, fill me in. InedibleHulk (talk) 03:07, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't have a problem with it other than the fact that it's never been referred to as "Wrestlemania NY/NJ" in any sort of announcements or billings for the event. The fact that this has just now become a nickname for it in the past week when the event is 7 months old doesn't make sense. It should've been established with sources before or shortly after the event that this is an accepted, notable nickname for the event, not 7 months later. Antoshi ☏ ★  03:21, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Have a look here. All poster logos leading up to the event are styled the same way. An editor noticed this oversight in the past week, but the posters are far older. Now that you see this, is there any other problem? InedibleHulk (talk) 17:55, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I understand that's how the posters are stylized, however the WWE nor any notable source covering the event has never printed in text nor spoken from their mouths the event as being called "WrestleMania NY/NJ"; it's always been "WrestleMania 29." There's no reason, then, not to believe the idea for the posters is to simply say "WrestleMania is taking place along the NY/NJ state line," because WWE has always taken a certain pride when it comes to New York and especially Madison Square Garden. Again, there are no sources to confirm or deny this, leaving it speculation for both sides which means it should not be added to the article -- it is just not an "official" nickname for the event. Antoshi ☏ ★  18:33, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I realize it was spoken and typed as "WrestleMania 29". It's why I specified "in print ads", rather than just "also called" or something similar. Whatever WWE's intention in billing it as "NY/NJ" (your reasoning sounds likely), that's how they did.


 * You seem adamant about no sources, but promotional material (this wasn't just posters, but newspaper inserts, magazine ads, billboards, website buttons, etc.) are primary sources, just like WWE.com or the shows themselves. They can be used for straightforward claims which don't rely on interpretation. In this case, they prominently and consistently show the text "WrestleMania NY/NJ". This is known as billing, and so directly supports the claim (which doesn't say anything about an official nickname).


 * Does the bolding perhaps imply "official nickname" to you, and would it be more acceptable in plain text? InedibleHulk (talk) 20:17, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * From the article you linked, "Any interpretation of primary source material requires a reliable secondary source for that interpretation." So where's the secondary source(s)? As I said, nothing comes up with a Google search aside from the posters themselves. Antoshi ☏ ★  22:57, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Where's the interpretation? The ads have words on them, we say what the words on the ads are. Something like "WWE avoided using the number 29", "WWE aimed for a homecoming vibe" or "WWE considers WrestleMania NY/NJ the official nickname" would need a secondary. But this is like quoting a person or book. A "straightforward, descriptive statement of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the source but without further, specialized knowledge."

Loss Prevention talk page
I've received numerous threating messages over the years in response to the Loss Prevention stub that I helped write years ago. I am trying to get my name changed on this site and all references to it removed off active Wikipedia pages. I haven't not been an active user on this site since 2008. That being the case I only vaguely remember how to do these format edits correctly on conversation pages. If you want the content so be it, but at least help me edit my name out because it is showing on search engines.

Also in response to what you posted on my talk page. I don't care if this account gets deleted, I honestly hope it does if that's what it takes to get me off this site and my name gone.

SSB4 Edits
Hello, I just wanted to know what exactly about my edits to the Smash Bros. 4 character table is unnecessary? And I don't see the problem with the table being larger. It is wider, and not longer, meaning it does not make the page smaller. In fact, the changes make the article more informative, as it allows the readers to see exactly when each character was confirmed, and in what order. It's pretty interesting, in my opinion, that 5 Mario characters were confirmed even before a 2nd Pokemon character or such major characters like Yoshi or Zelda, don't you think so? --198.166.255.36 (talk) 02:18, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Sonic Boom (TV series)
Hi there! I just undid your revert of my edit on Sonic Boom (TV series). I'm the uploader of the image, and I found the picture on the "Sonic the Hedgehog" Facebook page, not on a Cartoon Network sizzle reel. See the image's description page, where the source is linked. Also, "SoH" really should have been "StH" for Sonic the Hedgehog. That was an epic fail on my part. Sorry for any confusion I caused with my sketchy edit summaries.

Global warming / climate change
Hi, As you might know, to most scientists writing in the professional journals "Climate change" and "global warming" have traditionally had different meanings. But in the commmon language of us lay people, we have RSs that say they are used interchangeably to mean to all the earth-responses to the contemporary buildup on greenhouse gases. Some time back - before I started editing - wikipedians decided to use "Climate change" to discuss the general principles involved.... whether you mean at the time of the dinosaurs and for awhile (not sure if it still is this way) even on other planets. Meanwhile, these editors decided to use "Global warming" to discuss the contemporary situation of greenhouse gas buildup right here on earth. The scope of those articles has been defined by that consensus ever since. I agree it is messy when the entire range of sources sometimes say "global warming" and sometimes "climate change" for the same thing. See for example this CSMonitor headline "Is global warming generating storms like Typhoon Haiyan?", which in the body of the text uses both terms! Aggghhhh! Since we have sources that say in lay use they mean the same thing, thus far we've maintained those articles under the titles as I described. That consensus could change, of course, but for now sending people to the generic "climate change" article, which doesn't talk about any specific warming (or cooling for that matter) creates an WP:EGG. Readers expect to go to the main article about the modernday issue, which they will - for now anyway - find at Global warming. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 17:11, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

 * If dinosaurs aren't your thing, "The Giants got the ball to the other side (known as the scoring area) to win the game." If dinosaurs are your thing, but just not jargony enough, their article uses words like "clade", "perciform" and "genera". That's zoological jargon, and it's a Featured Article. Wikilinks are great.

Authority
Hi. I think you misundertand the point of "titles won durning their time". Shield's title should be included in the article. They won the titles BEFORE the Authority, but when they were part of the stable, they were champions. The point is don't include titles BEFORE or AFTER their time in the stable (like HHH reigns). Also, Orton titles are fine. When Orton defeated Cena, he won the WHC (WWE.com included his victory as 4th reign) and he won twice the WWE Title (durning his second reign, changed the name to WWE WHC) --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 14:55, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Syobon Action/dongs.exe
Hi. I see you've reverted my edit of Syobon Action based on WP:N but doesn't that particular rule apply to new articles only, not the content of existing ones? And even then, I believe this particular name is notable due to the fact that it was an early/possibly a first name used in English-speaking part of the Internet to refer to that game, and as such is as relevant to the article as Cat Mario. 178.36.205.100 (talk) 04:47, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
 * You are right, and I meant to say it fails WP:V. You provided no reliable sources for this name. How does one even know that "dongs.exe" isn't either a bad translation or just a joke name? Antoshi ☏ ★  12:37, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Fair enough, the only other sources of that name I could found were random blog posts and YouTube let's plays. I'm tagging Cat Mario and Neko Mario with Citation needed though—they are unsourced as well and are not translations, just nicknames given by English-speaking communities.

Commissioned works are problematic
We are forced in this litigious world to be very hard-nosed about copyright, and to assume that all works are copyrighted unless demonstrated otherwise. If you pay somebody for a photograph or other artwork, even if it portrays you, your original character, your concept, etc. unless they explicitly sell you all rights, you only own the work, not the rights. In the case you asked about, this is clearly not the case, and no Wikimedia project can accept permission except directly from the artist themselves. Sorry about that, but we have no real choice. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  03:24, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

February 2018
There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  03:28, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

Eh? Long time user? Promo edits? -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 07:07, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

I think that the problem is that this account has existed for vso long that it pre-dates some of our more modern policies. Antoshi says that he has always used his userpage as a sandbox; this was at one time acceptable but is not so now; Antoshi, in future perhaps you should use a real sandbox, which only takes two clicks to create. Mike, could I suggest that if this long-time editor were to agree to use a sandbox and to avoid overtly promotional content therein you might agree to an unblock? --<b style="color:red;">Anthony Bradbury</b><sup style="color:black;">"talk" 17:33, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

If that's the case then I was unaware that policies regarding userspace had changed. Even still, I would've appreciated a warning or a direct message about it much more than an immediate indefinite block. I could have fixed it myself in a timely manner and moved on rather than having to sit here and wait for replies to my unblock request. I would still ask what content in question on my userspace was considered "promotional." Again, I am not affiliated with any business or organization, this is simply a handle I use across various websites. <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #A200FF, -4px -4px 15px #00CCFF;">Antoshi <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF0000, -4px -4px 15px #FFF600;">☏ ★  18:34, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Antoshi, I really do value your edits in other spaces. As long as you agree never to use your userpage to advertise your fanfiction in violation of WP:FAKEARTICLE and WP:NOTWEBHOST, I personally think we can unblock without requiring you to apply for a change of username. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  01:11, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I can certainly do that, but I need to have some indication on what and what is not allowed to be posted. But, again, why not simply warn or message me instead of immediately blocking my account? I'm more than agreeable and willing to go insofar as to delete/blank my userpage if need be. An indefinite block seems incredibly excessive for something like this, especially considering the fact that I never took my personal project article anywhere other than my userspace. <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #A200FF, -4px -4px 15px #00CCFF;">Antoshi <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF0000, -4px -4px 15px #FFF600;">☏ ★  01:33, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Actually, at first you created an article in Wikipedia, named Antoshi, which like the userpage I deleted this week was a long promotion of your fanfic. A one-paragraph link to your fanfic site would have been reasonable on a userpage, but not a fake article advertising it in loving detail. That is what Facebook or MySpace is for, not a Wikipedia userpage. --03:40, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

However, I was made aware afterward that I could use my userpage for such an article if I wished and that it would not be an issue.

While I am accepting your unblock request, and I see no problem with doing so, there are a few other comments that I would like to make. Firstly, I totally agree that Orangemike should have raised the issue with you and given you a chance to deal with it, rather than the first you knew of his concerns being a block. Secondly, a "sandbox" in Wikipedia terms is a place for drafting, testing, preparation, etc, for use for the encyclopaedia: it is not a personal web space for you to post personal content unrelated to work for Wikipedia, and comments above which appear to suggest that what you were doing would be acceptable if it were in a sandbox are misleading. No page on Wikipedia should be used for such personal use. Thirdly, while it is certainly true that over the years what is considered acceptable in user pages has been tightened up, it is not true that when you created the page the sort of thing you have posted to it would have been considered acceptable. The talk page guideline at the time when you created your user page said "Generally, you should avoid substantial content on your user page that is unrelated to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a general hosting service, so your user page is not a personal homepage. Your page is about you as a Wikipedian." User space content often tends to be overlooked, as apparently in this case, but the page could in fact have been deleted at almost any time over the last twelve and a half years, if anyone had noticed it and drawn it to the attention of an administrator. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:35, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello again. It's been quite some time since I've seen your name. Thank you for accepting my unblock request. As per what Orangemike has said in his replies to me, I would ask if having a much smaller page with information of 1-2 paragraphs about my personal projects, along with a couple of links, would be acceptable. <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #A200FF, -4px -4px 15px #00CCFF;">Antoshi <span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF0000, -4px -4px 15px #FFF600;">☏ ★  15:09, 12 February 2018 (UTC)
 * It's difficult to answer that without knowing more precisely what sort of thing you would include, and how much of it. Also, my impression is that on the subject of how much stuff not directly related to Wikipedia one can have on one's user page, I tend to be less tolerant than the average, and since I don't want to impose my own opinion if it is out of line with consensus, I would be cautious about expressing too definite an opinion. Having said that, though, as suggested above consensus as to what is acceptable has shifted towards allowing less leeway over the years, so it may be that my view is no longer "out of line with consensus". I am aware that this answer won't be very helpful to you, as it is so vague and non-committal, but unfortunately nothing else would be honest. My own opinion is that the best thing would be for you to concentrate on contributing to Wikipedia, and not concern yourself with posting anything else here at all, but I am really not able to say what a middle-of-the-road consensus view would be.

Thanks for uploading File:Skullgirls screenshot 2.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:38, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
