{{Hidden|style=width: 50%;|contentstyle=text-align: left;|1=How do I create citations?|2=#Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for. 
 * 1) Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
 * 2) In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
 * 3) Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
 * 4) Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like, copy the whole thing).
 * 5) In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
 * 6) If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Herodotus does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! Alcmaeonid (talk) 16:03, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

I think this minor copyedit might help you on your way more than the helpme tag. Primefac (talk) 14:48, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that. Dionysus (talk) 14:49, 9 December 2014 (UTC)


 * No, you may not remove the previous declined unblock requests. --jpgordon:==( o ) 18:35, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry if you were offended. But you didn't actually address any of my points. Please just tell me, what else do I need to do to show that I am sorry? Is 6 months not a long enough punishment? Surely all it would take to give me a second chance is just one click and if I abuse my privileges I could be blocked immediately. Dionysus (talk) 18:57, 9 December 2014 (UTC)


 * I apologize for getting the summary of your request wrong; I copy-pasted it from an apparently outdated version of the unblock request I had open in another tab. The answer remains the same, though: Your original account's talk page access was never revoked, and you have not tried to "clean start" in any meaningful way. Huon (talk) 19:49, 9 December 2014 (UTC)


 * What do you mean? I thought I wasn't allowed to 'clean start'??? What I am asking for is just an unblock, not a clean record. Also, I have just logged into my main account and can reconfirm that I am blocked from editing my own talk page. I think your records are wrong. As for the justification for the continuation of this block, I see none. This block has gone from being a deterent to being a punishment. For your reference, the wiki-policy on 'clean starts' see WP:CLEANSTART which clearly says that I am not permitted to make any 'clean start', meaningful or not, whilst blocked so I do not understand why you would refuse to unblock me in response to me following the guidelines. Also, are you a Check User? As per WP:CUBL it should be a Check User reviewing my request since I was blocked by one. Also if anyone rejects my appeal, could you at least consider changing the block from indefinite to something more definite? And perhaps lay down precisely what I am required to do to be unblocked? Thanks Dionysus (talk) 19:51, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * What they are trying to tell you is that you can sign in as Arfæst Ealdwrítere and edit the talk page there. With this account, you can only edit here. With your original account, you can only edit there. And it's there that the request must be made. Peridon (talk) 21:36, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Clarification
Since there seems to be much confusion about my other account's rights to edit its own talk page I have logged out of this account, logged into that one, went to its talk page, tried to edit, and got this message:

"You are currently unable to edit Wikipedia. You are still able to view pages, but you are not currently able to edit, move, or create them.

Editing from DJAMP4444 [Also known as Arfæst Ealdwritere] has been blocked (disabled) by DeltaQuad for the following reason(s): Wikipedia Checkuser.svg	CheckUser evidence has determined that this user account has been or may be used abusively. It has been blocked indefinitely to prevent abuse. Administrators: CheckUsers are privy to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy, and therefore must be consulted before this block can be removed. Administrators undoing checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser risk having their administrator rights removed by the Arbitration Committee (per this announcement).

Comprimised Account per user talk. Checkuser must be consulted for unblock. This block has been set to expire: no expiry set."


 * I don't really understand why you think I can edit it when I clearly can't. Dionysus (talk) 21:44, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * OK. That's a checkuser thing and only one of them can change it. Peridon (talk) 21:56, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * To DQ - please see User talk:DJAMP4444. I'm getting confused here.... Time for bed. Peridon (talk) 22:01, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
