Wording
Hello! I saw how you worded your addition of the outage of Amazon's smart home services. How you worded it implied that Amazon purposely locked people out of their homes and prevented their fridges from working, however looking at the source it was merely just an outage of the Smart Home services. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:31, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Oh my. Thanks for the explanation, warning, and link. I will stop doing that kind of thing. Thanks a lot. Baxter329 (talk) 16:23, 27 January 2022 (UTC)


 * I am requesting a clarification. Was the only problem my comments, or was there also a problem with me posting links to Politifact, Forbes, the Star Tribune, Yahoo news, KTLA, and the BLM website? If the former, I understand. If the latter, please explain what is wrong with those sources. Baxter329 (talk) 18:06, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Black Lives Matter shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.''You have already been warned that post-1992 US politics are under discretionary sanctions. Stop edit-warring, attempting to insert your own synthesis viewpoint.'' Binksternet (talk) 22:53, 22 February 2022 (UTC)


 * OK. Yes. I will do what you say. I will go to the talk page. Thank you for much for your help. Baxter329 (talk) 22:56, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for being Unable or unwilling to edit in a manner compliant with core policies on original research and maintaning a neutral point of view. 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:. Vanamonde (Talk) 23:54, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia's policy on maintaining a neutral point view, which you cited frequently, states "All encyclopedic content on Wikipedia must be written from a neutral point of view (NPOV), which means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias, all the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic." The crucial aspect is the last; views published by reliable sources. Wikipedia summarizes reliable sources; personal opinions have no place on it. The evidence provided at AE included several instances where you added content to articles entirely because you think it's relevant, without appropriate supporting sources. I was initially minded to give you a warning and leave it at that; but your last reply was especially concerning. Your edit implied climate change has enhanced human life expectancy; you provided no further evidence for that besides your own opinions, which is the definition of original research. And you failed to recognize any problems with doing so even when I spelled them out pretty explicitly. I have blocked you indefinitely, but this does not necessarily mean your block is infinite. If you can convince a reviewing admin that the problems I mentioned will not recur, then you may be unblocked. You will have to do a lot better than denying you've done anything wrong.
