Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

Remote (Peel), Smart Stay, Multi-Window, Group Play, and All Share Play.<ref name=microsite-spec>{{cite web|title=Samsung GALAXY Tab Pro|url=http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxypro/spec.

Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 14:48, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

The discussion (I started)

] comp.arch (talk) 17:05, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

There is no consensus yet on whether to standardize of to retain so in the mean time let us retain the format until a consensus has been reached. GalaxyOptimus (talk) 17:34, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

I can argue for one or the other. Mostly I just want to know what is right or most done and standardize on that (in the MOS). I don't really care to much which one is the standard. If (in another article) it were the other way around would you not change as there is no consensus? comp.arch (talk) 20:26, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

A cookie for you!

Great job expanding the article Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2! Thanks for your contributions. ///EuroCarGT 21:28, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Galaxy spamming account blocked

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Misplaced Pages because it appears to be mainly intended for publicity and/or promotional purposes. If you intend to edit constructively in other topic areas, you may be granted the right to continue under a change of username. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Misplaced Pages?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, website or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements and using Misplaced Pages for promotion. Misplaced Pages has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but such groups are generally discouraged from using Misplaced Pages to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

Probably not, although if you can demonstrate a pattern of future editing in strict accordance with our neutral point of view policy, you may be granted this right. See Misplaced Pages's FAQ for Organizations for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, organization, or clients. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit Misplaced Pages again.

What can I do now?

If you have no interest in writing about some other topic than your organization, group, company, or product, you may consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

If you do intend to make useful contributions here about some other topic, you must convince a Misplaced Pages administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:

Add the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} on your user talk page.
Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
- Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
- Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

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

Requested username:

GadgetsGuy (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

I want to make it clear that i do not represent any organization as it might seem such as I contributed many articles regarding samsung devices so in order to conform to wikipedia rules i change my name to a neutral one in which does not reflect any name of any current organizations brand and I think my edits are neutral enough and are not promotional in manner as I do not post such words as "great" or best and only describe the product very well plus some of the basic content such as chaton was carried over from existing articles. I know such ruling that is why my contributions are neutral enough I know my username was the issue so may I request for a change, Thanks!

Accept reason:

Allowing username change to requested username. Please put this request in at Misplaced Pages:Changing username as soon as possible to avoid re-blocking. only (talk) 23:02, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Here are a few key questions:

Do you understand that Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory?
Do you understand conflict of interest?
Do you understand that to be considered for an encyclopedia article, the subject must be notable?

You are currently blocked because your username appears directly related to a company, group or product that you have been promoting, contrary to the username policy. Changing the username will not allow you to violate the 3 important principles above. Daniel Case (talk) 19:19, 18 January 2014 (UTC)

* I understand that wikipedia is not a business directory but a enyclopedia that is why I make sure my contributions are neutral enough

I understand wikipedia conflict of interest that is why im requesting for a name change as I have been accused of such
I understand that there should by notability for a subject to have an article that is why I make sure that I have third party sources in my contribution GalaxyOptimus (talk) 01:17, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

Images

Firstly, that S5 image is a non-free image and is clearly being used under fair use. What exactly is the problem?

Also, you mention flickrwashing and "questionable licensing" consistently, but have no citations. What gives? ViperSnake151 Talk 03:54, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

February 2014

Hello, GadgetsGuy, welcome to Misplaced Pages and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Misplaced Pages. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections. ViperSnake151 Talk 03:57, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Samsung Galaxy S5. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ViperSnake151 Talk 03:59, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
