Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 04:14, 25 September 2012

Welcome! I have started using this IP to edit Misplaced Pages on 2012-08-08. Vandalism from other parties using this IP occurred in 2011 and in 3 juvenile edits on 2012-08-21. I have presumed that these edits do not disqualify my positive contributions from this IP. I acknowledge the risk that excessive vandalism by others in the future could disqualify me from editing from this IP and I take responsibility for my edits (and will disclaim any edits I did not make upon discovering them). A content dispute arose this week in which my sourced contributions were regarded as vandalism, but I believe close review will show that they were not and that they can be worked into the article along with data from other yet-untapped sources. If there are any issues, please dialog rather than assume. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 00:55, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Misplaced Pages. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. — Manticore 01:00, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Misplaced Pages, as you did with this edit to the page Jah Cure. Such edits constitute vandalism and are reverted. Please do not continue to make unconstructive edits to pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you.  Ronhjones  01:01, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Please do not remove content from pages without explanation, as you did with this edit to Psychosis. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing.  Ronhjones  01:06, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

August 2012

Hello, I'm TYelliot. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made to 1990, because it didn’t appear constructive to me. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, TYelliot | Talk | Contribs 15:27, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Misplaced Pages, as you did at 1990. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Pinethicket (talk) 15:28, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Oddly enough it appears this IP is being used by more than one person at a time. As a constructive editor I apologize for the 2 nonconstructive edits made by someone else from this IP within minutes. Sorry this doesn't provide any assurances but it's the first time I've noticed this quirk. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 15:37, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mr. Vernon. This might not have been intentional, but I noticed that you recently removed some content from AT&T Worldnet without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an edit summary. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, Mr. Vernon (talk) 02:11, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

This was explained at the time as being due to a requested merge and Mr. Vernon has dropped the issue. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 00:55, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Please make edits as a registered Misplaced Pages user to protect yourself against being blocked for vandalism, and to mask your location.

I have registered as User:IP 12.153.112.21 in case I need to make such edits or to distinguish myself from other parties that may use or have used this IP. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 15:13, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

September 2012

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Misplaced Pages again, as you did at List of AT&T U-verse channels, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Neutralhomer • Talk • 04:46, 19 September 2012 (UTC) 04:46, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

I am untroubled by threats of blocking my IP based on my constructive edits, which stand on their own merits and are mostly corrections taken from the source already provided. After corrections from this source are completed, other sources should naturally be consulted as I will indicate at the talk page. Please remember that supplying sourced data in lieu of unsourced errors is not vandalism and should not be reverted en masse. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 01:32, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Self-disclosed conflict of interest

It has come to my attention that this IP address is closely related to AT&T and, taken with the fact that edits relate largely to AT&T, that this constitutes potential conflict of interest. The fact that an AT&T address might be naturally limited to editing AT&T articles has multiple reasonable explanations. I invite review of my edits by more seasoned editors. If this potential conflict should become actual by a reasonable demonstration that particular of my edits are conflicted, I will be happy to relegate edits on affected articles to their talk pages instead. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 02:06, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Blocked account User:IP 12.153.112.21

I've blocked the pseudo-IP-address-named account User:IP 12.153.112.21 as account names similar to, or named after, IP addresses are not allowed: please could you create another account which does not reference an IP address? -- The Anome (talk) 19:30, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Whoop, sorry, missed that one. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 20:11, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for violating Misplaced Pages policy. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest this block by replying here on your talk page by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}}. You may also email the blocking administrator or any administrator from this list instead, or submit a request for unblock to the Unblock Ticket Request System. Daniel Case (talk) 20:21, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Sorry I missed this and edited the article anyway because I returned more than 1 day after this was issued. I believe the block was in error because this is a content issue, not a vandalism issue. The single party objecting to my edits is not supplying any sources whatsoever, while I am working from a source. The party has now stated the source is 5 years old, but that does not impeach its validity for historical information, especially when no other source is being brought forward. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 00:14, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Your Corrections are Vandalism

Nothing in your "corrections" is correcting anything. Removing current information and replacing it with information from May of 2007 is vandalism. In case you are in the dark on some things:

• "Fox Reality Channel" is no longer on the air, it was replaced by "National Geographic Wild" (otherwise known as "Nat Geo Wild").
• "SciFi Channel" is now simply called "Syfy".
• "Spike TV" is simply called "Spike".
• "Sleuth" is now called "Cloo" (pronounced "Clue").
• "Court TV" has been "truTV" for a couple years now.
• "SuperStation WGN" has been "WGN America" for at least 3 years now.
• "AZN Television" has been defunct for at least 5 years now (it wasn't replaced or renamed with anything).
• "MSNBC" is stylized as "msnbc".
• "Discovery Times" has been "Investigation Discovery" (after being something else before that) for at least 3 years now.
• "Toon Disney" was renamed "Disney XD" about 2 years ago.
• "Noggin" and "The-N" were renamed "NickJr" and "TeenNick" respectively about a year and half ago.
• "Discovery Kids" became "The Hub" at the beginning of 2012.
• "WE: Women's Entertainment" is now called simply "We TV".
• "Fine Living" is now the "Cooking Channel".
• "Discovery Home" is now "Destination America" (it was "Planet Green" in between).
• "Fit TV" is now "Discovery Fit & Health" (the channel for "Fit TV" is now "OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network").
• "MTV Tr3s" is simply "Tr3s".
• "BET J" has been "Centric" since 2011.
• "Fox Deportes" is spanish for "Fox Sports"...and was renamed recently.
• "TV Games Network" is now simply "TVG Network".
• "YES Network" has been called simply "YES" for awhile now.
• All the regional Fox Sports channels are simply "FSN <region>".
• "Turner Classic Movies" called simply "TCM" now.
• "Discovery HD Theater" was renamed "Velocity" this year.
• "HDNet" was renamed "AXS TV" back in August.
• "MGM HD" was never called "MHD".

What you are doing, reverting back to 2007 information, is repeatedly adding inaccurate and incorrect after being told it is inaccurate and incorrect and that is considered vandalism. You have been issued many warnings for vandalizing articles, follow them. Any further vandalism to List of AT&T U-verse channels or any other article will result in a block. This is your final warning. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 20:25, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Since you have been blocked, consider this a deterent if you feel like vandalizing again. If you do, I will not hestitate to give your company a call and let them know an employee is using and abusing Misplaced Pages on company time. It is frowned upon to be goofing off on the internet when you are supposed to be working. So, get back to work and keep your job. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 20:32, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

See the article's talk. 12.153.112.21 (talk) 00:55, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Misplaced Pages, as you did at List of AT&T U-verse channels, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. This is your last and final warning. If you continue to vandalize Misplaced Pages articles, you will be blocked. STOP NOW!

Your recent editing history at List of AT&T U-verse channels shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Administrator's warning

Hi. I am an administrator who has been asked to review your account for possible blocking. I see that you seem to be engaged in an editing dispute with other editors. We operate on consensus here and when we disagree, we use the article talk pages to discuss our disagreements.

Please make no further edits to any Misplaced Pages articles for now without first gaining consensus for them on the article talk pages (such as Talk:List of AT&T U-verse channels) from other, established editors. Otherwise, I or another administrator may block this account without further warning.

Thank you,
