Page moves

Hi. Please don't make controversial pagemoves without discussing them first. Thanks. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 21:03, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No block and no reason -- Amanda (aka DQ) 00:06, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

June 2020

Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to Talk:COVID-19 pandemic. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. ‑ Iridescent 15:17, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, there was a consensus to use COVID-19 pandemic at Special:Permalink/955157312#Requested_move_26_April_2020. --Mdaniels5757 (talk) 15:19, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mdaniels5757, this wasn't a move of the article but of the talkpage, and as such obviously disruptive. Pcgmrich, I'm making allowances as you're a very new editor, but this is now your second warning about goofing around with page moves; please stop. ‑ Iridescent 15:23, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Seconded, with reference to your move of "Supreme Court of the United States" to "Supreme Court of United States" – this is grammatically incorrect and makes no sense at all. Please be mindful of Wikipedia's guidelines on article titles, and make sure that you err on the side of caution by initiating a discussion if in doubt. — RAVENPVFF · talk · 17:48, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

And you can knock stuff like this off as well. As I said above, we do assume good faith of new users and I'm willing to believe that you're just experimenting with the interface rather than being intentionally disruptive, but if you want to participate here you need to follow our rules. ‑ Iridescent 15:59, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

National varieties of English

Hello. In a recent edit to the page Little Mix, 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. Thank you. ‑ Iridescent 18:42, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you move a page disruptively, as you did at 1974. Favonian (talk) 18:55, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I know you reverted the move, but your fooling around with articles is getting tiresome! Favonian (talk) 18:56, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

Just as you were getting the warning above, I was blocking your account. You had been told twice to stop moving pages without getting a consensus first, but you have ignored it and carried on. As well as the move of 1974, you also just moved Supreme Court of the United States to Supreme Court of United States and someone else had to move it back. You are now blocked for 31 hours to stop this disruption, and if you move any more pages when this block expires you will be blocked for longer. However, if you reply here and promise not to move any more pages without first getting a consensus for the move, I will unblock your account (or any other admin who sees it first can do so with my blessing). Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:00, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you must stop messing about with templates as you did here, even if you change things back. If you wish to practise editing, please use your sandbox. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:06, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Boing! said Zebedee: There was a bunch of logged-out vandalism and they are evading at least one anon rangeblock that was placed specifically for them; I've switched to an indef CU block.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:20, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
