Hi Back to a,

“Bad edits”, as you call them, are called vandalism, and there’s more of that than we want! Please feel free to revert them by clicking the “Edit this Page” button at the top of the article page. Also, here are some important things to remember when dealing with vandalism:


 * Do not nominate an article for deletion simply because it is being vandalized. That simply encourages vandalism more.


 * No matter how tempting it may seem, do not personally insult vandals. If someone is doing something they know is wrong, insulting them is likely to make them vandalize more (feeding the flame).


 * If an editor appears insistent in continuing their vandalism, you may report them to administrators.

Thanks for showing your concern,

It's me, Artichoke-Boy, again.

I noticed that you're displaying personal information (like userboxes) on this page. This is good, but this isn't the proper page to display them on. This page is a talk page, used to send messages to a certain user. Personal information should be displayed on one's user page, and I suggest making one to do so.

Happy editing, Artichoke-Boy (talk) 20:50, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

am i goig to get blocked?
{unblock|I hae been told that I am to appeal my block using this template on my account, so here it goes. Wikipedia is a sourcve for information. But, is it a trusted source? Through vandalism, Wikipedia has been given a bad name. I can see how much pride members have to be able to reverse this and why I may have been blocked. But, I juist don't get something: Am I a vandal? That is the question. If you looked on my personal account, you'd see that I have not once made an intentional foul edit that provided no improvement of the encyclopedia. I am interestred in good editing and the reverting of bad edits, and be able to get this from great editors with more experience then me, such ss Artichoke-boy. I see that some people have used ths I.P. Adress for vandalistic ways. I am different, I represent change, I am Back to a. i would appreciate that this ban from Wikipedia indefinetly be removed and I may continue being a great editor.}}
