Notability of Wicklewood Massiv

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Wicklewood Massiv, by another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Wicklewood Massiv seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Wicklewood Massiv, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Wymondham College

I'm trying to unblock these needless revertions that all the techno geeks are making to your Wymondham College contributions but I'm not sure how much luck I'll have. They are a humourless bunch. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spongebobq (talk • contribs) 22:06, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Sockpuppetry case

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Misplaced Pages:Suspected sock puppets/Chimpywiki for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page.Template:Do not delete haz (talk) 22:13, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Wymondham College. Poeloq (talk) 22:41, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

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

Request reason:

Having done nothing since my last warning, I fail to see why I am being blocked from editing. Are you just a really angry man?

Decline reason:

The sock puppetry seems clear. You also do not seem to have any intention of editing constructively. Kuru 14:56, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

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.

Request reason:

What sock puppetry?? I thought we had already been through this and explained that spongebobq is my friend who I go to school with? I had been given a final warning, and consequently had stopped making unconstructive edits, yet I was then told I was going to be blocked indefinitely anyway? Surely the fact that I stopped making phony edits is proof that I'm going to stop from now on?

Decline reason:

Given that you admit making phony edits, and that another account made the same phony edits, I think we can confident of sock puppetry. However, we could have a change of heart. See below for details of a possible second chance. — Addhoc (talk) 16:01, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

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.

This unblock request has been declined due to your history of vandalism and/or disruption to this encyclopedia. However, we are willing to give you another chance provided that you can earn back the trust of the Misplaced Pages community. To be unblocked you need to demonstrate and confirm that you are willing and able to contribute positively to Misplaced Pages. You can do this by:

• Familiarizing yourself with our basic rules.
• Reading our guide to improving articles.
• Picking any pre-existing article you wish to improve.
  • If you have trouble choosing an article to improve, see this index of articles needing improvement for ideas.

Once you have decided on the article you will propose improvements to:

1. Click the Edit tab at the top of that article;
2. Copy the portion of the prose from that article that you will be proposing changes to. However:
   • do not copy the "infobox" from the start of the article (i.e., markup like this: {{infobox name|...}}),
   • do not copy any image placement code (i.e., markup like this: ]),
   • do not copy the page's categories from the bottom of the page (i.e., markup like this: ]),
   • and do not copy the stub tag (if there) from the bottom of the page (i.e., markup like this: {{Foo stub}});
3. Click edit at your talk page and paste at the bottom under a new section header (like this: == ] ==) the copied content but do not save yet;
4. Place {{reflist-talk}} at the end of the prose you have copied from the article;
5. Place your cursor in the edit summary box and paste an edit summary in the following form that specifies the article you copied from and links to it (this is required for mandatory copyright attribution): "Copied content from ]; see that article's history for attribution."
6. Save the page by clicking Publish changes.
7. Now, edit that content. Propose significant and well researched improvements by editing the selected portion of the article. Please note that we are not looking for basic typo corrections, or small unreferenced additions; your edits should be substantial, and reflect relevant policies.
8. When you are done with your work, save your edits, then re-request unblocking using {{unblock}}, and an administrator will review your proposed edits.

If we (including the original blocking admin) are convinced that your proposed edits will hopefully improve Misplaced Pages as an encyclopedia, you will be unblocked.

If you need help while working with your proposed edits, you may add "{{Help me|your question here ~~~~}}" to your talk page. Thank you. Addhoc (talk) 16:01, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
