Thanks for your edits on this article. However please read the Wikipedia Manual of Style and the Text style manual before making large edits to pages. The suggested use of bold, italic or quotemarks is quite limited as overuse can distract the reader or place the wrong emphasis on sections of the text. NtheP (talk) 15:35, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing. Bluezy (talk) 15:38, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest this block by adding the text below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

I find this site very confusing as I have just learned to use a computer. I am not sure if I am even appealing the block correctly as in the above text it tells me not to include the "tlx" argument but on my talk page it informs me to use this language. I was not attempting in any way to disrupt Wikipedia editing of this article. I was only trying to bold the text and save the article to my computer for future reference in order to easily find the literature I attempted to highlight. I read the appeal process for blocking and find it confusing as well. I hope this message will get to someone who can help. I have also read the editing rules and realize the mistakes I have made and can assure you this behavior will not happen again. I am asking to be reinstated for editing. I was only introduced to the Wikipeda website 2 days and today was my first attempt to edit. I failed to educate myself on the rules, for this I apologize. I would like WillKing1979 to respond. I tried to locate his email in order to explain but could not find It. Thanks

Hello. The problem with your edits was that your bolding of text was visible to every one of the millions of people who use this website. If you want to highlight an article for your own use, please make a copy of it and store it on your own computer. Then you can do whatever you want to it.

We will probably unblock us if you convince us that you understand the problem and if you can tell us what constructive edits you intend to make if you are unblocked.  Sandstein  18:32, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi.Thanks for replying so soon. I now understand the problem I caused. When editing the article I was actually rewriting someones work and possibly giving the world misinformation as everyone would have been able to read the changes. I am sorry, this was not my intention. As far as making constructive edits, I have no intentions of ever editing any of Wikipedia's articles. I just want to highlight the points I found important to me in that article. Will you please advise me on how I save the article to my computer. I am just learning how to use computers and find them difficult. Another reason I did not attempt to copy the article is I read somewhere on your site that this was frowned upon because of copy right laws.

I am requesting a review of the block imposed on me. As stated earlier, today was the first time I have ever used this site and I admit I did not take the time to understand the policies associated with editing. I fully understand my errors and can assure you it will not happen again. I was blocked within 5 minutes of using the site and I did not even realize administrators were trying to contact me with warnings. If i had seen the warning I would of stopped immediately! I did not realize I was doing anything wrong until it was to late and I was blocked. I understand it's a privilege to be a member of Wikipedia and I would like to be able to edit articles if felt I had something worthwhile to contribute. Although I do not intend to edit, it would be nice to have the privilege. Thanks for revisiting my request.

Welcome!
