Blocked

AnnieTigerChucky,

I have had to block you from editing Misplaced Pages. Numerous editors and administrators have been trying to communicate with you for several weeks now but you have ignored all their messages and unfortunately your editing style is causing too much disruption, so your account is now blocked from editing for 24 hours. I think it would be good if you used this opportunity to read over some of the help pages.

Please understand on Misplaced Pages, blocks apply per person. This means that you are not allowed to edit using any account or IP address until the block on your account has expired. If you try to edit with other accounts or anonymously, the block may be extended. The only thing that you are allowed to edit for the next 24 hours is this page. I would really like it if you would read through the messages that other people have been leaving you. I moved them to this page: messages for AnnieTigerChucky and please think about responding to some of the concerns raised there.

There are some important things that you need to understand before you start editing again.

  • Misplaced Pages is a collaborative project. This means that we work together on articles and must be willing to communicate with each other about what we are doing to articles. Communications is a very important part of Misplaced Pages and if an editor is unwilling to communicate they will most likely end up being banned. It is important that when somebody leaves you a message you answer them. If you don't understand what they are talking, that is fine, just write that you don't understand and they will explain themselves. Ignoring all the messages as you have been is not a good way to edit and if you continue ignoring people who leave messages here, you will end with much longer blocks. This is because it is very disruptive to ignore people's warnings, comments and questions and then continue doing what they told you is not allowed.
  • Misplaced Pages is very strict about copyright. You are not allowed to copy things from other websites, books, or articles. You must write the text that you want to add to an article in your own words. And you must not upload to Misplaced Pages images that you have not taken yourself. If you want to upload an image taken or created by someone else, they must tell Misplaced Pages that they agree to license their image as a free license. I have deleted the images you uploaded because they were not yours to donate to Misplaced Pages. The person who created the images must donate them to Misplaced Pages themselves if they want to allow us to use their pictures in our articles. Please understand that this is the law, not a crazy rule that Misplaced Pages made up. Do not upload pictures unless you created them yourself. This is really important. You have been warned about this several times by several different people, if you continue uploading pictures that you did not create yourself, I will block you from editing Misplaced Pages for one week.
  • Please do not delete deletion discussion notices from articles, like you did here: This is disruptive and if you do this again, I will block you for a day.
  • If you think the block is unfair and would like to appeal it, please leave a message here on your talk page explaining why you think it is unfair. If you would rather discuss it privately, you can send me an email by clicking on this link: email.

A tag has been placed on The Tic Code, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages per CSD g12.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Misplaced Pages criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. ~Matticus C 21:46, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Michael Wolff

Hi, ATC; I removed your additions to Michael Wolff; Wiki cannot just take a large chunk of information from the Tourette Syndrome Association, replaying an interview about his Tourette's is unencylopedic and not appropriate to a bio about a musician whose life is more than TS, and you also removed a lot of cited text along with their references. I hope you've had a chance to read through some of the instructions and Wiki policies in the links above. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:48, 19 September 2007 (UTC) Thank You for all your help. Are you going to put a summary box and picture for the movie The Tic Code. Thanx! Maybe I'll ask for your help for another artical one day! Thanx again.
