Please bear these points in mind while editing Misplaced Pages:

• Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
• Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Misplaced Pages policy.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.

The Misplaced Pages Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. 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 vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Again, welcome! --3bulletproof16 20:11, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

your block

I am willing to consider that your recent edits may not qualify as vandalism. However there are a few guidelines that you should be aware of. For example, verifiability, reliable sources, as well as the 3 revert rule, I believe all apply to your situation. I ask that you please read over these guidelines, and if you can agree to follow them, and use talk pages in order to discuss extensive changes to a page, I would be willing to shorten your block or even unblock you altogether. -- malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 23:43, 25 July 2006 (UTC) I understand. I will go back and look at it . What is his punishment? He should be blocked as well. I asked him to discuss it with me and he never did. He did vandalize the article as well. He was very rude and not willing to talk.

I will follow these guidelines I would like to recieve an apology from him.--TheTruth2 00:42, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I have unblocked your account. Please discuss any drastic changes on the respective article's talk page. Direct solicitation through email is not always the best for creating better content. Instead, using the talk page allows anyone to contribute and voice their opinion on how an article should be laid out and what materials it should contain. -- malo (tlk) (cntrbtns) 00:59, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Was he punished? --TheTruth2 05:48, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

3RR

You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future.

Good Bullet needed to be punished as well.--TheTruth2 05:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Blocks aren't punishments, they are preventative measures taken to stop people from violating policies and damaging the encyclopedia. --Lord Deskana (talk) 16:44, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

YOu might want to keep an eye on him. He is in violation of the 3RR rule on other pages.--TheTruth2 16:45, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

As I have said before, I make no comment on whether or not he has violated the 3RR before. As I also have said before, keep the discussion on one page please. --Lord Deskana (talk) 17:01, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I did. Look at the times. I have kept it on your page.--TheTruth2 17:03, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you. --Lord Deskana (talk) 17:05, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

I didn't revert. I deleted rumored matches(which are not supposed to be in there) and told them not to be in there. This happens with every PPV, people add in rumored matches even though they are not supposed too. TJ Spyke 19:28, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Not quite. It cleary says at the top of the page to not add in unannounced matches. So adding in rumored matches is basically vandalism and removing vandalism doesn't count towards the 3RR rule. TJ Spyke 19:38, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Block

Why am I blocked? I was not even warned. You have to be warned before you are blocked.--TheTruth2 05:37, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

TheTruth2 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

never warned

Decline reason:

You were doing blatant vandalism, you can be blocked without warning for that

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.

No warning here nor my talk page.

Also I was citing it the way he told me I listed the magazine and page number

It needs a better source like an external link or at least the magazine issue and the page number, please see WP:CITE. Anyways one scout that says that he is declining really doesn't mean anything. Jaranda wat's sup 04:15, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

It is not one scout. It is several scouts.--TheTruth2 06:34, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

It still needs a more valid source per WP:CITE like an external link or the magazine issue and page number. Jaranda wat's sup 18:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

--TheTruth2 19:24, 31 July 2006 (UTC)it does.

It only has the magazine, it needs the issue and the page number, otherwise it's not

sourced correctly, and a external link is easy to find on this. Jaranda wat's sup 19:29, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

There is no external link. I have listed the magazine and issue as well as the page number. As was reported in Pro Football weekly 2006 page 101 preview--TheTruth2 19:39, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:LaDainian_Tomlinson"

YOu could go back and look. --TheTruth2 05:55, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Um it is a content issue and not a vandalism issue. Also I was citing the article were I got that from. How is that vandalism?--TheTruth2 14:33, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
