You're blocked for 31 hours due to your string of edits on God. Please don't do things like that. Georgewilliamherbert 23:52, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for. Please stop. You're welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest this block by adding the text below.

(former unblock request text):
 * Excuse me. How is that vandalism? How is self-reversion grounds for being blocked? And why 31 hours instead of 24?


 * I resent how I have to be the one who needs to justify his/her changes, but, anyway, when you ask about my string of edits, are talking about my self-reversions or the edits in general? With regard to the self-reversions, I just didn't like what I'd written. My motivation for making edits in the first place was to try to make the article more accurate-- the explanation of the term "Shangdi" was (and remains) incomplete. Others, apparently, didn't like my changes, but the question seems to be what is/were/are his/her/their problem(s) with my changes? I've just given my reason. Undoing an alphabetical arrangement of the names of God which makes more sense and is more convenient (in my opinion)? Okay, maybe he didn't see my edit on Shangdi and only saw a change with the order of the terms. Fine. But removing the explanation for a term, which was, up until my revision, incomplete (and, therefore, misleading) entirely, was unjustified. But the point is that I was trying to make the article more accurate. That was my motivation. You're welcome.

You did make a number of other changes and made them repeatedly despite being reverted by other editors; tedentious editing or edit warring is not ok.

That you reverted one of your own edits doesn't mean that the others weren't problematic.

If you can clarify what you were up to with that series of edits, it might help. Another admin should eventually be along to review the block, and if you can explain they are more likely to unblock you. I am also willing to listen to what you have to say...

All right, I am satistifed that this was a misunderstanding here, not intentional vandalism.

Can you please do me a favor and discuss the edits you were making on the Talk:God article talk page, and see if you can make sure that everyone is aware of what you are doing and why, and that any disagreements are dealt with there instead of by edit-warring back and forth on the article itself?

Thank you. Georgewilliamherbert 05:00, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Re: Your email
I don't have that data anymore. The sources used are listed on the file description page, but I don't remember how I had access to them back in 2010. Sorry. Anomie⚔ 14:06, 23 January 2017 (UTC)
