Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Roosh V. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. —— SN  54129  11:59, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't know if you'll receieve this User:Serial Number 54129 as I'm not familiar with serial number users, but please see the talk page for discussion and provide more details on why you think that my revert was anything other than in alignment with WP:BLV policy.

SENS
- David Gerard (talk) 12:36, 28 November 2019 (UTC)


 * I went looking and couldn't find any reference indicating that SENS is under discretionary sanctions and it is not classified as pseudoscience or fringe science. Can you please provide a link where this page specifically is listed as under discretionary sanctions?  I also didn't see any mention of discretionary sanctions on the talk page, like I do with other Discretionary Sanctioned pages.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Roosh V; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ——  SN  54129  15:34, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
 * User:Serial Number 54129 I would love to discuss this on the talk page! I have started the discussion here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Roosh_V#Part_3, and you may have missed it but I linked to that discussion in the comment of my last two reverts.  Unfortunately, so far none of the other parties who are issuing reverts have engaged on the talk page yet, but I'm assuming they just need time to formulate their thoughts.

 * No, you're just edit-warring, while incorrectly accusing others of edit-warring - David Gerard (talk) 17:08, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * User:David Gerard I am quite confident that my edits both follow Wikipedia rules and Wikipedia ethos. I would love to discuss a difference of opinion on this matter over at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Roosh_V#Part_3.  If we cannot reach a resolution there, and you still believe I am engaging in an edit war, then I believe the next appropriate step for you is to file a complaint at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring.  I would prefer to resolve this dispute amicably on the talk page, and I have included a suggestion for how we can move forward with your desired edit over there. Micah Zoltu (talk) 17:25, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Your last attempt to bring a complaint at said board was closed as "no violation" in 47 minutes - I suggest considering that perhaps you have not understood the term - David Gerard (talk) 17:27, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Article of the Month

The Kalākaua coinage is a set of silver coins of the Kingdom of Hawaii dated 1883, authorized to boost Hawaiian pride by giving the kingdom its own money. They were designed by Charles E. Barber, Chief Engraver of the United States Bureau of the Mint, and were struck at the San Francisco Mint. The issued coins are a dime (ten-cent piece), quarter dollar, half dollar, and dollar.

No immediate action had been taken after the 1880 act authorizing coins, but King Kalākaua was interested and government officials saw a way to get out of a financial bind by getting coins issued in exchange for government bonds. Businessman Claus Spreckels was willing to make the arrangements with the United States in exchange for profits from the coin production, and contracted with the US Mint to have $1,000,000 worth of coins struck. Originally, a 12$1/2$ cent piece was planned and a few specimens were struck, but it was scrapped in an effort to have uniformity between US and Hawaiian coins, and a dime was substituted. The coins were struck at San Francisco in 1883 and 1884, though all bear the earlier date.

The coins met a hostile reception from the business community in Honolulu, who feared inflation of the currency in a time of recession. After legal maneuvering, the government agreed to use over half of the coinage as backing for paper currency, and this continued until better economic times began in 1885. After that, the coins were more eagerly accepted in circulation. They remained in the flow of commerce on the islands until withdrawn in 1903, after Hawaii had become a US territory.

Today's Featured Article November 28

The Pilgrim Tercentenary half dollar was a commemorative fifty-cent coin struck by the United States Bureau of the Mint in 1920 and 1921 to mark the 300th anniversary of the arrival of the Pilgrims in North America. It was designed by Cyrus E. Dallin. Massachusetts congressman Joseph Walsh was involved in joint federal and state efforts to mark the anniversary. He saw a reference to a proposed Maine Centennial half dollar and realized that a coin could be issued for the Pilgrim anniversary in support of the observances at Plymouth, Massachusetts. The bill moved quickly through the legislative process and became the Act of May 12, 1920, with the signature of President Woodrow Wilson. Sculptor James Earle Fraser criticized some aspects of the design, but the Treasury approved it. After a promising start, sales tailed off, and tens of thousands of coins from each year were returned to the Philadelphia Mint for melting.

You have been blocked for one week from editing for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. 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:.

I got your email notification Micah, but I prefer to respond here. I dont use email. Now you have a week ban (this doesnt I think ban you from commenting on talk pages), so please come back and look at this in a week and take a deep breath. I hope that you keep editing, we need more editors. It is useful to go along with the flow for a while, and get into the vibe of it. You will learn that in some cases the rules that are followed are not always what is written exactly (such as us questioning the notability of content within an article). In time you will see that wikipedia is a long slow process, and its great when editors make slow improvement to it. It seems you are a quicker study of it that me (I see you have mastered the rules and terminology quickly). Please keep editing after your short ban is up. Thanks!

 * , this editor has been blocked (not banned), and there is a big difference. This editor can only edit this very talk page for the purpose of requesting an unblock, and cannot edit anywhere else on Wikipedia until the block expires or it is lifted by another administrator. Cullen328   Let's discuss it  06:49, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah, thank you for the clarification. I guess that was why the editor send me a message in email. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 10:25, 2 December 2019 (UTC)

As a result of discussion at ANI, you are hereby subject to a topic ban on blockchain and cryptocurrencies, broadly construed. You may appeal the ban to the administrators noticeboard although I recommend that you wait until you have established a solid track record of useful editing in other areas of the encyclopedia.

Please be aware that several editors also supported an indefinite block. Any further disruptive behavior is likely to lead to that outcome, so I encourage you to be cautious. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  18:22, 2 December 2019 (UTC)
 * To be clear, the topic ban applies to every single page on Wikipedia, including talk pages and your own talk page. The only exception is if you are asking for clarification or formally appealing the topic ban. I have logged your topic ban at General sanctions/Blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  21:46, 2 December 2019 (UTC)

BIPS article deletion discussion
Hi Micah, I saw you are active in the Cryptocurrency wikiproject. Would you care to weigh in at Articles_for_deletion/Bitcoin_Improvement_Proposal? --187.178.163.96 (talk) 21:09, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Elongate article
Hello User:MicahZoltu, I'm reaching out because you're listed as a contributor to the Cryptocurrency WikiProject. I am trying to get a draft published in the Cryptocurrency domain, but it's a bit difficult as the reviewers seem to have an opposition to the topic of crypto as a whole. Meanwhile there are other topics published with significantly less notability. As you are knowledgeable on the subject, could you please look at the draft and let me know if you can assist? Thank you! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Elongate_(cryptocurrency)
