I am taking a Wikibreak because I need to focus more on school. I have not been doing schoolwork recently because I would edit or read Wikipedia while in my classes. My grades are low until I can make up all of my missing assignments. Each missing assignment counts as a zero in the grade books, greatly decreasing grade averages. I will not be using Wikipedia while at school during this period. However, I might still check Wikipedia during the night-time. I won't be able to make as many edits or responses during this time. I will remove this message once I make up every missing assignment.

Quick deletion of Super Bowl LVIII change

 

The page you wrote, Super Bowl LVIII, has been selected for quick deletion. If you think this page should be kept, please add {{wait}} below the line {{QD}} and say why on the talk page. If the page is already gone, but you think this was an error, you can ask for it to be undeleted. You can find more information about the reason here.

February 2024 change

  We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but "Super Bowl LVIII" was directly copied and pasted from the main English Wikipedia. Please do not do that. Such articles are usually too complex. They need to be simplified before or immediately after being added to the Simple English Wikipedia. In addition, be sure to include attribution on the article's talk page. Thank you. MathXplore (talk) 05:23, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sorry I was watching the Superbowl and I noticed that there was not an article made yet so I decided to create that article so that it could be a start for an article on this Wikipedia. I think someone should create it now that the game is over and we have the final results of the NFL Season and Super Bowl score. 84Swagahh (talk) 15:35, 12 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Coming clean change

Hi 84Swagahh. Thank you for your contributions to the Simple English Wikipedia. English Wikipedia's checkusers show that you also operate the account User:BulgariaWarrior. This account is currently blocked on the Simple English Wikipedia for vandalism (though it is set to expire soon) and is globally locked. Normally, accounts that are confirmed to be connected to a blocked user will also be blocked. However, I'm going to give you a chance, since you have shown to be a constructive editor. I ask that you do not vandalize, do not make disruptive edits, and do not abuse multiple accounts (this includes logged-out editing). If you violate this, and are caught using alternate accounts to disrupt the project, you may be blocked. Thank you. — *Fehufangą✉ Talk page 03:43, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I have been editing this Wikipedia project in order to still contribute during my block on the main English Wikipedia. When I was vandalizing using the BulgariaWarrior sockpuppet, I moved onto this Wikipedia because I was able to understand the language and further vandalized here before becoming blocked here. After this current account was blocked on the English Wikipedia, I realized that I should start working towards becoming unblocked in a legitimate manner. I made unblock requests and was told to pursue the standard offer and that I was able to edit on other projects. I moved here and have been making good faith edits to the site. I will not make edits that are purposely disruptive nor will I be violating the sockpuppet rule. 84Swagahh (talk) 03:54, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
What I find interesting is that User:Cyber.Eyes.2005, (one of the most active users on this project currently - over 6 thousand edits already), and I are editing here for the same reason: We are both blocked for sock puppetry on the English Wikipedia. I have made my first edit on this Wikipedia on December 7th, 2023 and Cyber.Eyes made her first edit here on December 6th, 2023. 84Swagahh (talk) 03:59, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
There are many users blocked on enwiki who come here and show that they can be excellent contributors and members of this community, and eventually get unblocked. I hope you can be one of them. Good luck! — *Fehufangą✉ Talk page 04:03, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, the BulgariaWarrior sock puppet was by far the worst sock puppet I’ve had because I used shock image vandalism and abused cross-wiki. Now, I’m trying to improve as an editor. Hope I reach my goal of getting unblocked soon! 84Swagahh (talk) 04:10, 16 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hey @Fehufanga:, thank you for giving me the second chance even when I used to vandalize here on that sockpuppet account. Today, I submitted my request for an unblock on the English Wikipedia. Unfortunately, it was denied pretty quickly and I am likely going to have to wait much more time. Thank you for giving me a second chance here though. I enjoyed editing on this project and if I were to have been blocked here, it would have likely made it near impossible to be unblocked on the English Wikipedia.
Thanks for giving me a chance, 84Swagahh

Welcoming IP editors change

Hello. We do not welcome IP users. The IPs can change by the day and they are mostly used to commit vandalism. So please only use the welcome template on user accounts. Also, you should typically wait until they become an established user with some good edits that don’t get rolled back for some reason and they have made edits for a couple of days. Some, based on the above topic, are created for sock puppetry and other issues so it’s a waste of time. Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 19:04, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

About your recent VIP reports (special:diff/9431290) change

Hello, I appreciate your efforts here. I want you to know that the account that you recently reported to VIP is a possibly problematic username (please check machine translation results), and it should have been reported differently. If I were you, I would use user creation log IDs instead, so offensive user names don't remain in WP:VIP page history (these may require WP:REVDEL). For example, the recent case is special:redirect/logid/2671638. User creation logs can be seen at special:log/create, and the ID numbers can be found via URL. I hope this can help you.

For your information, the JA/ZH vandals targeting simplewiki prefer harmful usernames (another example can be seen at Wikipedia:Requests_for_checkuser/Archive21#JA/ZH-originated_fake_doppelganger_accounts). They aim to leave harmful usernames in this project, and language barriers have delayed our responses. I have been working on this issue with our admins and sometimes with our oversighters. In the future, if you find a suspicious account but can't read its name, you may want to discuss the case with our multilingual editors (please consider using e-mail). Users can be found by each language through babel categories. For example, English speakers go to Category:User en, and Japanese speakers go to Category:User ja (I also belong here), etc. Please feel free to ask questions about this.

Again, thank you for helping us, and please keep up the good work. MathXplore (talk) 14:59, 22 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Ok, if I'm going to report someone for having an inappropriate username, I'll find them in the special logs first and then report them. 84Swagahh (talk) 15:26, 22 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, I have found how you can see the log of when a user account is created, so I'll report those instead. 84Swagahh (talk) 15:29, 22 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Rollback granted change

Hi 84Swagahh, I've given you rollback as you requested it. Remember to only use rollback for obvious vandalism, and not good faith edits. If you'd like to test it out, please go here. Thank you for your contributions! :) --Ferien (talk) 23:08, 22 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Talk page headers change

FYI, if there is nothing on a talk page, then there is no need to add the header. I blanked it completely due to vandalism. If something gets added that is discussion worthy and not vandalism, then it is ok to add it. Typically we don't create the talk page or even if created but blanked, we don't put the header on it. Thanks, and be well! - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 00:05, 14 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
