So,on Wikipedia,what do protections do for pages? Gale5050 (talk) 00:15, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Suppressed edits
Hi, Gale5050, I have unfortunately had to suppress some of your edits because they reveal too much personally identifiable information about you. We have a policy of protecting editors' safety by hiding such information if they share it. I'm really sorry about having to suppress your edits, and I know it's annoying, but it's for the best. Please don't re-add the information. For some useful information on privacy and safety, you can take a look at Guidance for younger editors and On privacy, confidentiality and discretion. Thanks, and sorry for messing about with your pages! PhilKnight (talk) 17:02, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

Power of two
I don't recall what the first Mersenne non-prime is, but they do exist. Your edit was not exactly vandalism, but factually incorrect and (more important on Wikipedia) not in a reliable source. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 17:56, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia. 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:. Bbb23 (talk) 19:37, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

By using Wikipedia as a source somtimes, I use misinformation by mistake. Bbb23 probably just notices the bad and blocks me. Gale5050 (talk) 20:29, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * No, that's another instance of you being mistaken. You need to never add misinformation.Deepfriedokra (talk) 22:06, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * You also need to never use Wikipedia as a source. See WP:RS. --Yamla (talk) 22:09, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Ok, so I should always fact check, right? If you add a section, and let me add information, and then review it, and then check if it is page length and has ZERO misinformation, can I please be unblocked? Gale5050 (talk) 22:14, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * template:2nd chance may be an option for you. I'd be willing to argue in favour of an unblock if you followed the instructions there. Note that you need a distinctly non-trivial change and you need to find reliable sources. You'd have to follow the instructions exactly, though. I want to be clear, just adding accurate information would not be sufficient. You need significant, well-researched and well cited changes. --Yamla (talk) 22:25, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Ok, is there a due date though? It might take me a couple of weeks or even months, so....also how do I cite a source again? Do I just use the link? But yeah, give me a chance. Gale5050 (talk) 22:41, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * There's no due date. A day, a week, a month, a year, whenever. It's your responsibility to familiarise yourself with Wikipedia's policies, guidelines, and methods of citing information before you go through this process. WP:CITE covers this. --Yamla (talk) 22:43, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Ok, I will have it done by June 1,2020, and I will do everything you told me, but where can I put it? On a new section here, on the template-like, where, I need to know Gale5050 (talk) 22:44, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Hint: this information has already been provided to you. --Yamla (talk) 22:46, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Where? Gale5050 (talk) 22:51, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Check template:2nd chance. Please note: this is an opportunity for you to demonstrate you have sufficient competence to be unblocked and to edit Wikipedia. If you are unable to correctly follow the instructions you've been given, you are failing to demonstrate this. --Yamla (talk) 22:52, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Oh right. Sorry, I was confused. I will probably start tomorrow and end in May ‘20, so please be patient and I will update this every so often. Gale5050 (talk) 22:55, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Note to administrators. First, I believe Gale5050 is a troll. Some of their edits make that obvious + the obsession with the protection policy. Second, they edited significantly and abusively while logged out.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:37, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

@Bbb23, what do you mean? Also, I did not know I was editing abusevly, so please give me a 2nd chance. Gale5050 (talk) 00:13, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Well, that pretty much ends the matter. I withdraw my offer of support, regardless of whether or not you pursue the 2nd chance. I'm done here. --Yamla (talk) 00:57, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Gale5050, what other accounts have you used before this one?--Bbb23 (talk) 01:40, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

 * This is now a CU block.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:21, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

What does CU mean Gale5050 (talk) 21:06, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Checkuser. Read your block message. Note you are not eligible for unblock consideration here (or on the IP address you just used) and will likely lose talk page access unless you use your access solely for unblock consideration. --Yamla (talk) 21:23, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, I think it is valid. Gale5050 (talk) 02:16, 6 March 2020 (UTC) it would not let me post unless I did this
 * TPA has been revoked.--Bbb23 (talk) 04:30, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

Email from Gale5050
Gale5050 has emailed me and asked me to add this to their talk:

I have no idea why the contacted me, but they asked if I place it on their talk. If you are reading this, please use the OTRS system, instead of emailing users to bypass revoked TPA. — Yours, Berrely  (🎅 Ho ho ho! 🎄) • Talk∕Contribs 11:12, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
