WikiProject Programming Blocks
New WikiProjects are typically not created on a whim by one person but through discussion with other interested wiki-editors. Articles and topics that would be covered by the project you created, WikiProject Programming Blocks, would already be within the broader WikiProject Television. Programming blocks may be best suited as a task force under that project, but if I were you, I'd add a message on the TV Project talk page to find out the best way to get your project off the ground and if there are other interested editors in helping you with it. See if you can get a discussion going there first; otherwise, I'm afraid the project will be nominated for deletion. To gain the respect of the community, it is probably best that you listen to what others tell you when they have concerns and engage in meaningful discussion with them. -- Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 20:41, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of DCHK


A tag has been placed on DCHK requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Logical Cowboy (talk) 04:22, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Hoax pages
If you create another hoax page anywhere in Wikipedia, you will be blocked. It doesn't matter if it's in user space or main space, there is no need for pages about Tateland or the TB Network.&mdash;Kww(talk) 04:31, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Fair use logos on userpages...
Are not allowed. Please read our fair use and logos use policies, and note that I have removed the Chelsea crest from your userpage template, and the Bob's Burgers logo from the userbox regarding the show. Do not add it again, and I implore you to read our policies before continuing to edit. Thank you.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 06:31, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Force Four Entertainment
Hi. Regardless of what happens at the current AfD, I'd encourage you to write a referenced article on Force Four Entertainment, even a stub. If not, I could see Category:Television series by Force Four Entertainment possibly being taken to CfD, as a category with no parent article. Just a suggestion.

Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to List of Key & Peele characters. It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to a loss of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. MikeWazowski (talk) 00:17, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

Redirect issue
Please stop creating spurious redirects and categories without any consensus. The 30th Century Fox Television redirect should not redirect to the show's article for instance, but to the studio as the in-joke involves the studio's name. You are exhausting the patience of other editors with this behavior, and your continued silence in the request for comment above is not helping your cause. Correct your behavior and read our guidelines. Thank you.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 07:03, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

blocked
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for chronic creation of articles and redirects despite a hundred requests to stop. I found it particularly telling that your response to the RFC on this problem came in the middle of you creating a redundant series of redirects. Not before, not after, but right in the middle of the process. I will unblock you when you assure me that you will respond to messages on your talk pages, and subject to an agreement to cease creating any new articles or redirects for a period of 30 days.. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. &mdash;Kww(talk) 00:22, 5 March 2012 (UTC) --TBrandley (talk) 00:33, 5 March 2012 (UTC) Thanks --TBrandley (talk) 00:41, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Synchronized Swimming (Bob's Burgers)


Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Synchronized Swimming (Bob's Burgers). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - List_of_Bob%27s_Burgers_episodes. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at List_of_Bob%27s_Burgers_episodes - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Taylornate (talk) 10:02, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violation of unblock agreement. You agreed not to create any articles or redirects before April 4, 2012, yet today we have Nickelodeon Croatia. Why did you create this redirect?&mdash;Kww(talk) 22:00, 6 March 2012 (UTC). If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Question
How can I get unblocked on Wikipedia? Tate Brandley Stockwell 23:00, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Prove to administrators that you understand why what you did was wrong and make sure that you don't violate any of our rules in the future. May I also suggest you get a mentor to help you in your struggles. Also you should read the guide to appealing blocks as well. Hghyux (talk) 00:19, 10 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I think you need to wait some time, at least a few months, then explain that you truly understand and will not repeat the actions that led here (and you will not receive much benefit of the doubt even then). I certainly would not unblock you right now for a number of reasons no matter what you said. For one, you have caused a very large number of hours wasted that could have been spent by others doing other useful things. The huge number of warning messages above from disparate people, and the actions those people had to take before leaving them (fixing problems nominating articles for deletion, etc.) attests to this. For that reason, unblocking you does not appear to be in the best interests of the encyclopedia. But your post above makes it far worse in my view. Simply put, it is not even a little credible that after all the warnings, and after blocks, you "forgot" what not to do, plus Salvio advises that you were unblocked once before and returned to bad behavior.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 00:34, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I think a good idea would be for the user to get a mentor. That may be enough as there is decent potential for productivity. Perhaps if we could get someone that has the knowledge and abilities to help someone like this user we could get him to have a full understanding on the rules and not forget. Remember that this user has legitimately requested for help and my best solution that will be fast and make sure that he doesn't lose interest in editing is to get a mentor. Maybe an admin would be willing to consider this as an option. Hghyux (talk) 01:12, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, no, what if he *lost interest in editing*?! Why, then people wouldn't get to clean up after him anymore!  Some of them might even be forced to get back to building the encyclopedia!  We have to avoid that at all costs!  In all seriousness, mentoring isn't going to fix basic WP:COMPETENCE issues, and ultimately Wikipedia is not therapy. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  01:50, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Have some compassion for goodness sake! While Wikipedia is not therapy, it is also a place where you can help users who have editing struggles. If we gave him a mentor then we could shape him into a good editor, which could benefit the encyclopedia. I am a believer in WP:AGF and can pick out the difference between someone who can become productive and one who can't. Give him a mentor, and if he does not improve in a week then block him for good. Hghyux (talk to me)(talk to others) 02:26, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Hghyux, I admire your ability to spot talent. You seem to have a lot of insight into this issue, so why don't you volunteer to be his mentor?  Logical Cowboy (talk) 02:29, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I would do that gladly, but I have been editing for just over a month. In this scenario as long as my job is to make sure he does not create a new article then I can do that. Would that be something that could be given to this user as an editing restriction rather than a full scale block as that seems more appropriate. Hghyux (talk to me)(talk to others) 03:10, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, because the user responsible for User:Hghyux/FUNZONE is definitely capable of forcing Brandley not to create inappropriate pages. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  03:22, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
 * That's because I have a sense of humor and am actually a trained comedian. Read my userboxes! Also, I did not create it in main space and it is meant for humor in my user space and put the appropriate notice at the top. I believe that having 100% neutrality all the time can make you a stuffy person. Read WP:Humor. I am knowledgeable on how to appropriately prevent someone from creating articles. But if you don't mind I would reccomend 2 users I have crossed paths with who may be appropriate for the job.

User:Worm_That_Turned - An admin who mentors lots of people and even reached out to me with something I needed help with. User:N419BH - A former mentor who may want a replacement. I think if either are willing, they would be happy to take the job. Hghyux (talk to me)(talk to others) 03:37, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

If you cannot go a few days without editing I suggest in you look at some of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines first. Right now you have not shown you have even taken a look at a policy and desperately trying to get unblocked to return to your old editing habits.  Jay Jay Talk to me 03:51, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

Stan Smith (American Dad!)
I took a second look at your "vandalism reversion" on this page, and there was no vandalism at all. It was a test edit by an IP playing with the buttons and seeing if the changes did stick, which hardly did any harm at all. You had no business reverting this as vandalism and should have left a welcome template on the IP's talk page, which I will do now. This is exactly why I stepped in against you using rollback.
