February 2017[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  NeilN talk to me 02:01, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note I've deleted your page moves, creating pages for non-existent users, and blocked you until you explain what you're doing and how you're related to User:22nd Century and Beyond --NeilN talk to me 02:06, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I will agree to only use one account and shut down the other one.Brookerbs (talk) 19:56, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This is a good start, but given the problems with your edits discussed at length at User talk:22nd Century and Beyond and your general lack of insight in why your past conduct is considered problematic it's not enough. It's very likely that if you were unblocked, the problematic edits would continue. Huon (talk) 20:00, 2 February 2017 (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.

So it is against the community guidelines to create year articles or edit year pages? What all the administrators are saying is that it is against the guidelines to create articles about years. I do know that many people have created articles for just about every single year individually from 729 BC to 2099 AD. Was that okay to have 2827 single year page articles about each year or not really?

I have been observing this from the beginning. My suggestion to you is to simply accept what you were told (It has been explained and the guidelines linked to on your other account. That you seem incapable of understanding why you were being disruptive is a major reason why you are not being unblocked but the primary concern is that you not repeat the disruption not that you understand.) and agree to a topic ban on all year, decade, century as a condition of your unblocking. That means not editing articles or creating articles in Main space and not making articles or edits on those topics in your user space/sandbox. Try editing on another topic but read all of the policies and guidelines first.

My guess is that you do not have that many unblock requests left, maybe only one, before some admin removes your talk page access for causing disruption by making clueless unblock requests. Take some time, read over the material people have linked for you and, since my guess is you are pretty young, read WP:YOUNG then, while assuming it will be your last chance, make an unblock request.

And learn to sign your comments. If you can not learn to do that properly and regularly I doubt you are capable of following the other rules and guidelines on Wikipedia either.

I agree to not edit or create articles on years, decades, and centuries. I agree to find other places to edit.Brookerbs (talk) 20:32, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Make sure you understand what a WP:TOPICBAN is and put it in an unblock request. You may want to include that you will not abuse multiple accounts again and write it in such a way that shows you understand what it is that you are agreeing to. You should also read this brief tutorial on editing talk pages to learn how to properly indent your comments etc on a talk page since not properly indenting will also be seen as disruptive, just like not signing. I know there are a lot of rules but we need them for all of the people on Wikipedia to be able to work together. Good luck! JbhTalk 20:46, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I suggested at WP:ANI that you be unblocked. What I think would help is if you say, in your unblock request (edit the current one if it has not been declined, do not make another request only one unblock can be open at a time) what topic or topics you would be interested in working on or a couple of articles you would like to help improve.

    If you do get unblocked and need some help you can contact me on my talk page or {{ping}} me ({{ping|Jbhunley}}) from any talk page. I am not always around but I will help as I can. Jbh Talk 06:55, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Looking through your contributions, your block reason and history, as well as your previous unblock requests - I think that you should read Wikipedia's Standard offer page and come back in six months. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 04:37, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Read and believe[edit]

You're blocked. That means you can't edit. You can't edit as "Brookerbs", you can't edit as "22nd Century and Beyond" (as you have done within the last 24 hours), you can't edit as any other username. If you hope ever to edit again, then read this, read Oshwah's advice immediately above, digest it, and disappear from English-language Wikipedia for six months. If on the other hand you demonstrate that you are incapable of understanding it or following it, there's no chance that you'll ever be allowed to edit English-language Wikipedia. -- Hoary (talk) 23:36, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, may I ask if there is anywhere I can go to READ information. Is there anyway you could submit a question for me and message me back when you find the answer? I'm not wanting to edit anything, I am just trying to find the answer to my question.Brookerbs (talk) 01:23, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, all you can do is appeal to have your block lifted. I advise you not to do so for at least six months, as you will almost certainly be unsuccessful and will only succeed in adding to the impression that you're unable or unwilling to understand what's said to you and are therefore entirely unqualified to do anything in or for Wikipedia. Read, understand, and follow the advice given in the "standard offer".
If you ignore what you have been told and instead persist in using this talk page for any other purpose (e.g. asking questions about calendar years), then your ability to post anything to it will be removed.
Additionally, don't ask questions about the "standard offer". The page about it explains it very well. -- Hoary (talk) 01:56, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
