Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
 * Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! JesseRafe (talk) 20:40, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to introduce jokes into articles, as you did at Dive bar, you may be blocked from editing. Wikipedia is a serious encyclopedia, and contributions of this type are considered vandalism. ''Please refrain from reinstating your personal inside jokes on the encyclopedia. Thanks.''

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you introduce jokes into articles, as you did at Dive bar. As stated in previous edit summaries and warnings on your talk page. JesseRafe (talk) 18:37, 6 March 2020 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent further advertising or self-promoting and edit warring. 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:. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:51, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

I did not post jokes or vandalize the page. I simply restored the Merrimaker as the dive Bar shown as it has been for many years. Simply look in the history and you will see Merrimaker has been on this page for years sometimes with the comment about being nicknamed "marragebreaker". Is there any proof that the new bar listed is more of a dive bar than the Merrimaker? Maybe no bar should be listed or maybe both should be listed. Thanks for restoring my editing access.

 * Hi, this message does not appear to address the reason for the block. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please use a desktop computer to have a look at this page here, and to make an appeal. While it shouldn't be necessary, I strongly recommend not doing this from a mobile device. Take your time; there is no deadline. There is also no requirement for making an appeal at all – unless you would like to continue editing, that is. If you are currently not interested in making different contributions and just would like to continue what led to the block, I recommend waiting until this changes. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:24, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
