Closure at AfC
You closed a request -- mine, indeed! -- at AfC with the comment "The Layout Of The Redirect Seems Invalid. Please Repeat The Order In The Original Source." Could you clarify what you meant by that? Thanks. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 19:05, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

You Did Not Use The Original Layout. That's Why I Rejected The Request. SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 03:24, 5 October 2022 (UTC)


 * That makes no sense, and it definitely doesn't look like a valid reason to decline the request. What "original layout" are you talking about, and which "original source"? Please do not restore your close again. --bonadea contributions talk 08:28, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

National varieties of English
Hello. In a recent edit to the page Zimbabwe Football Association, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. '''

Your edit also introduced language errors. bonadea'' contributions talk 19:25, 4 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I Switched It From Zimbabwean English To Which Type Of English? SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 07:59, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Bad page moves
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to For What It's Worth, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 08:27, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Why Did It Take A Little Time To Fail It? I Just Went On To Improve The Article! SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 08:42, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It's mainly because there are a lot of uncited paragraphs which means that the article can't pass unless those are addressed. If you can find a way to cite what needs to be cited you can renominate the nomination. Onegreatjoke (talk) 14:27, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth, the article might even quickfail after citing the missing material, I didn't find it particularly well written, but it would be a start.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 15:10, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Ancestry (disambiguation)


A tag has been placed on Ancestry (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
 * disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
 * is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Geramany (talk) 09:13, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of European World Cup champions' curse


The article European World Cup champions' curse has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Non notable 'curse', only refered to as the 'European World Cup champions' curse' in a Reddit post."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

November 2022
Hello, I'm LilianaUwU. I noticed that in this edit to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/European World Cup champions' curse, you removed all the content from the page. Please do not do this. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. As a rule, if you discover a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If a page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you wish to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

 * Don't give me orders. Anyways, I'm not even an administrator, so I can't delete it even if I wanted to. Liliana UwU  (talk / contribs) 03:51, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages, as you did with European World Cup champions' curse. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you. &#8209; Iridescent 07:57, 17 November 2022 (UTC)


 * OK, but do not delete this page! SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 07:58, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
 * After your block expires, you'll need to make a case for why, per Wikipedia policy, the article should remain by adding a comment at WP:Articles for deletion/European World Cup champions' curse. —C.Fred (talk) 14:19, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

 * I just wanted to thank the user that blocked User:Abidmardan because they do the worst type of vandalism SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 07:42, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
 * They weren't engaged in any kind of vandalism; they were making common mistakes a lot of new users make. If they were engaged in the worst type of vandalism, you harassing them would if anything be since in that case you'd be actively providing them with a pretext to vandalise further. &#8209; Iridescent 07:51, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No, that's false! SpyridisioAnnis (talk) 07:52, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Absaroka (proposed state)
Would you be able to expand on the concerns you laid out in Talk:Absaroka (proposed state)/GA1? All the review states is "Well written?: No" and " Broad in coverage?: No". This, frankly, does not provide me with enough information on what needs to be improved in the article. To put it in perspective this is more appropriate for a Good Article review. I can see you're a new editor and I applaud you for helping out at Good article nominations but please be aware that GA reviews are a lengthy process and it is generally considered good etiquette to give nominees a week to resolve issues. I will renominate the article for the time being since I personally don't understand exactly how it failed and I do have some concerns about the brevity of the review given. Please familiarize yourself with What the Good article criteria are not and Reviewing good articles. Please let me know what specific issues the page has so I can resolve them.

Also, as a clarification, Good article reassessment is meant for Good Articles that may no longer meet GA criteria, not Good Article reviews that fail. Cheers, Etrius ( Us) 05:08, 23 November 2022 (UTC)


 * It's not well written and it's not broad in coverage. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 05:09, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @SpyridisioAnnis Can you elaborate on why it's "not well written and it's not broad in coverage"? I cannot improve the article without some level of feedback. I do not think my writing abilities are infallible but need specifics. Etrius ( Us) 05:16, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It is not written like a Good Article and it is not broad in media coverage SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 05:17, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @SpyridisioAnnis That doesn't answer my question. "Not written like a good article" is a non-answer. "Is not broad in media coverage" is slightly more specific but I am unsure what aspect in its coverage fails. Do you have a WP:RELIABLE, WP:SECONDARY source that can be used for this article?

Article links
Your edit reversion does not make sense. An article was created for a book, the mention of such a book in other articles is an exceedingly obvious place for wikilinks to be placed. Going to an editors talkpage and accusing them of disruptive editing with a slightly threatening tone for adding a wikilink is not a positive course of action. CMD (talk) 10:21, 23 November 2022 (UTC)


 * This cleanup tag is similarly perplexing. There appears to be little to no clutter in that article. If you can, please expand on the reasoning behind the tag so other editors can understand it. CMD (talk) 10:23, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It has a lot of clutter, at least in my opinion. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 10:28, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Disruptive editing

 * Nuvola apps important.svg Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Governor General's Award for English-language non-fiction, you may be blocked from editing.
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.


 * You know that edit warring is not OK. There is nothing wrong or odd about the wikilink that I can see, and clearly at least two other editors feel the same. Your edit summaries are uninformative, and you haven't discussed this anywhere, or explained why "[this might go wrong in the article"], why "there should be no link", or what "That's not the way this links by" means. --bonadea contributions talk 10:46, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * There's a lot that is wrong with the wikilink SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 10:49, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

You have now broken 3RR in Governor General's Award for English-language non-fiction. Please self-revert your most recent edit, your 4th revert to the page. You can explain why it is a "bad wikilink" on the article talk page, and if you have actually identified a problem that the rest of us can't see, you'll probably get a consensus to remove it. But you may not restore your own contested version unless there is a consensus first. --bonadea contributions talk 10:52, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

SpyridisioAnnis, are you removing the link because the blue linked text in Governor General's Award for English-language non-fiction says Aki-wayn-zih: A Person as Worthy as the Earth and the linked article has the title Aki-wayn-zih? --bonadea contributions talk 10:56, 23 November 2022 (UTC)


 * No. I also started a discussion at the DRN SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 10:59, 23 November 2022 (UTC)


 * You have not self-reverted your 3RR violating edit. --bonadea contributions talk 11:02, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I have not self-reverted it because I have started a discussion at DRN. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 11:03, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No, that is not acceptable. Posting to DRN does not make it acceptable to break 3RR. Furthermore, you have not discussed the issue anywhere and you still have not explained what the problem is with the wikilink. There's nothing for DRN to discuss at this point. You also didn't follow the instructions for a DRN filing – you never notified the other involved editors, and it is not true that you have discussed this at the article talk page. I understand that the problem here is to do with your command of English, and I believe you are editing in good faith, but you are edit warring and that has to stop. Please self-revert before you make any other edits.  --bonadea contributions talk 11:12, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 11:59, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

 You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. 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:. Sam Kuru (talk) 12:45, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm deeply concerned with the overall competency of your responses here, and the page full of warnings that you've amassed in a short time. It would be helpful to explain you edits in detail in the future. Sam Kuru (talk) 12:45, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

May I give you some advice? If you want a chance of getting your block lifted- do some thinking, realize what you did wrong- and in your unblock request show that you understand how you were the problem and what you will do to make sure you do not make the same mistake in the future. The emphasis shows what is currently missing- accountability for your actions. Just a thought friend. Would love to see you grown and become a good editor. Nightenbelle (talk) 14:37, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

For any reviewing admin, the GA's in question were reverted because User:SpyridisioAnnis was performing Suboptimal GA reviews and nominations. This was a community decission, not 'vandalism'. Etrius ( Us) 14:52, 23 November 2022 (UTC)


 * But that, on the other side, is disruptive editing if it's not vandalism. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 03:30, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It is not disruptive editing to fix another editor's problematic edits. —C.Fred (talk) 03:32, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I didn't do problematic edits with that GA review so it's disruptive. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 03:33, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Please clarify your statement above. Was there a community decision to overturn some of SpyridisioAnnis' GA reveiws and nominations? Please provide diffs. —C.Fred (talk) 03:39, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * My edits should have not been reverted, and now, editors might be doing personal attacks with these reverts. They are attacking the contributor, not the content. And now they are even happy that I was blocked. They are harassing my contributions and my talk page, so I will send a unblock request below. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 03:47, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @C.Fred The discussion can be found here. This was in regards @SpyridisioAnnis's Good article reviews for Talk:Eurovision Song Contest 1997/GA1 and Talk:Absaroka (proposed state)/GA1 which were deemed to be inadequate and reverted. SpyridisioAnnis had used a frankly absurd criteria to grade GAs. Also, SpyridisioAnnis nominated 2 articles: here and here, which were both deemed inadequate and failed.
 * A discussion between SpyridisioAnnis and I occurred right above us on the talk page ( here is a link in case it was missed). This raised WP:CIR issues that seems to be echoed throughout WP:ANI and Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations. I can provide difs for ANI if you'd like. Etrius ( Us) 04:00, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Let me revert those things! SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 04:01, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * What things are you suggesting you would like to revert? —C.Fred (talk) 04:15, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Those that others reverted from me in GAN, GAR, Talk:Eurovision Song Contest 1997, Talk:Absaroka (Proposed state), Talk:Toronto, Directory structure, Talk:Croatian War Of Independence, Governor General's Award for English-language non-..., GA/Music, and The Dakotas. That's a lot of reverts. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 04:24, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Did you read the discussion at WT:Good article nominations? Multiple experienced editors have reviewed your Good Article reviews and determined that they do not follow the guidelines for reviews. If you were to revert those edits, especially in light of community discussion about them, then frankly, the best outcome you could hope for would be a topic ban from doing any good article review work. In all likelihood, what would happen is that you would be blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia. —C.Fred (talk) 04:32, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * @SpyridisioAnnis Those nominations and reviews were reverted because there were deemed to be improper. Croatian War of Independence was also reverted because the same discussion found it's reassessment meritless. Reverting this level of community consensus is the definition of WP:EDITWAR and will get you indeffed. The point of these blocks is to inform you that your behavior has been improper up to this point and attempt to rehabilitate it into something productive. Etrius ( Us) 04:35, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello, SpyridisioAnnis,

I hope you really realize what is happening here. You've been given a short block for edit-warring which you still seem not to acknowledge. The admins here are saying if you return to this behavior after this block is over, you will likely be blocked indefinitely. That means, for a long, long time you will be unable to edit the English Wikipedia at all. Take a moment to decide whether it is more important for you to believe you did nothing wrong or whether you'd prefer to be able to continue to edit on this project.

You also need to be able to respond to criticism other editors leave on your talk page in a productive way. No editor is perfect. I'm an admin and I still get messages from editors pointing out mistakes I have made so to continue to work here, you have to be able to asess whether or not other editors saying you are doing something incorrectly are being accurate, and therefore your behavior must change, or whether you are acting according to policy and you should defend your actions.

But if you return from this brief block and continue to do edits like removing valid AFD tags or edit-warring, you will soon not be able to edit here at all. It's not too late to prevent this from happening but you need to start listening to what other editors and admins are telling you. Good luck. Liz Read! Talk! 20:09, 23 November 2022 (UTC)


 * But can a sysop get blocked from editing as well? SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 03:31, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * It happens exceedingly rarely, because admins have learned to listen to feedback, so there's no need to block them for persistent violations. Further, they have to demonstrate familiarity with guidelines and policy to get admin privileges in the first place. The few who do get blocked tend to do something so egregious that an immediate block is the only option. —C.Fred (talk) 04:34, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

AfD
Today was bad. My article was converted to a redirect where it should have not been converted to a redirect because I wanted to have created at least 1 article in the main namespace. What article should I create next? SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 03:52, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
 * "I wanted to have created at least 1 article in the main namespace" is not a reason to keep an article. Process at Articles for deletion/European World Cup champions' curse was clear that it didn't warrant a separate article. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:38, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

Warning re edit warring
This edit is against the consensus at WT:GAN, and I see you've undone my reversion. You're heading for a longer and possibly indefinite block. I suggest you undo it. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 14:23, 26 November 2022 (UTC)


 * I suggest that you not revert my edit because if you do, you are heading for an edit war, and I don't want to edit war. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 14:28, 26 November 2022 (UTC)


 * I'll note you are currently edit-warring. Knock it off. --Yamla (talk) 14:29, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
 * No, I have only reverted 1 edit and they didn't revert my edit. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 14:31, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
 * You fundamentally misunderstand WP:EW, then. I very strongly suggest you read it before editing further, because you are very near to an indefinite block. --Yamla (talk) 14:32, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

As much criticism as you've gotten, here is some praise for doing it right
This edit at Ishant Sharma was done properly. The talk page laid out the rationale for the change, you reviewed the sources that supported the change, you noted the lack of objections at the talk page when you stated you were making the change, and you changed the page. Good job. —C.Fred (talk) 19:45, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

MfD nomination of Wikipedia:IP vandalism
Wikipedia:IP vandalism, a page which you created or substantially contributed to, has been nominated for deletion. Your opinions on the matter are welcome; you may participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:IP vandalism and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You are free to edit the content of Wikipedia:IP vandalism during the discussion but should not remove the miscellany for deletion template from the top of the page; such a removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. –– FormalDude  (talk)  04:38, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

Stop making disruptive speedy deletion nominations.
Speedy deletion is for pages that meet one of the very narrow and specific criteria listed at WP:Criteria for speedy deletion. If you can't find a criterion that applies, then the page isn't eligible for speedy deletion. Spurious rationales like "poor writing" are in some ways than pure vandalism, since they have such a high potential to drive away newer editors who aren't yet familiar with our practices, don't realize that the nomination is illegitimate, and think they're in trouble.

I think I speak for everyone else who's warned you or tried to help you when I say that you're running out of last chances. I appreciate that you're trying to help, but your constant inability or refusal to comply with Wikipedia's rules is wasting a lot of time of a lot of people; the next block is likely to be indefinite. &#8209; Iridescent 07:05, 27 November 2022 (UTC)


 * [Y]ou're running out of last chances. I have to agree with that. Please be mindful of how you interact. Comments like this one at a MfD discussion will, frankly, be used against you if (or, as I fear might be the case, when) an editor complains about your behaviour at WP:ANI. In all candor, I think your heart is in the right place, but you've dived in a little too quickly without getting up to speed on rules and guidelines. —C.Fred (talk) 14:38, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

GAN
Please stop nominating articles to GAN. The articles you have nominated have all been clearly deficient, and you are not remotely a significant contributor to any of them. This is a continuing waste of community time, and it is already surprising you were not reblocked upon immediately resuming GA-related edit warring when your last block expired.

WP:ANI Notice
There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Etrius ( Us) 16:33, 27 November 2022 (UTC)


 * SpyridisioAnnis, if you don't understand what's happening here (Wikipedia's internal jargon can be confusing to newcomers), it can reasonably be summarized as . Until you understand what you're doing, stay away from editing pages; stay away from creating pages; stay away from any page beginning ; if someone more experienced than you tells you you're doing something wrong, don't argue. We extend a lot of good faith to new editors, but the good faith isn't infinite, and we have no space for someone who isn't interested in following our rules. &#8209; Iridescent 18:47, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

Why do you keep saying that I am a new editor? SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 03:33, 28 November 2022 (UTC)


 * You have only made 354 edits, which means you're still a relatively inexperienced editor. Further, we have two choices on how to interpret your behaviour: (1) you are a new editor and have not yet learned the proper way to do things, or (2) you are an experienced editor who cannot or will not do things the proper way. Would you prefer that we start following interpretation number two? —C.Fred (talk) 04:32, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 04:53, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I want to clarify something. Do you mean that you want us to assume you're an experienced editor who is refusing or unable to follow policy? I understand your first language isn't English and I just want to make sure you interpreted C.Fred's statement correctly. Etrius  ( Us) 05:16, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, that’s right. SpyridisioAnnis Discussion 14:44, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
 * You want us to assume that you are refusing or unable to follow policy? Are you sure that's what you meant to say? -- SarekOfVulcan (talk) 15:21, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
