  We like and strongly encourage helpful changes to Wikipedia, but an article you created 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. Additionally, since you're currently blocked on at least one other project, you may be subject to the ONESTRIKE rule on this project. Operator873talkconnect 15:56, 27 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently made a new article or made changes to one, for example "Martin Garrix", by adding things copied from a book, magazine, newspaper or another website without the permission of the copyright holder. Many sources, including websites found on the Internet, are copyrighted. I'm afraid Wikipedia cannot accept any things copied from these sources as it can get Wikipedia into serious legal trouble. The article or changes have been or will soon be deleted. Next time, please look up sources to find out information for articles and explain it in your own words, and don't copy sentences or images from them. Thank you. You can't copy and paste information from other sources into Wikipedia. You must write the information yourself. Operator873talkconnect 16:00, 27 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from changing Wikipedia for 72 hours for Copyright violations.

Once the block has ended you can make helpful changes. Please read Wikipedia's blocking policy and remember that adding spam, making changes that do not have a neutral point of view, making personal attacks on others, not respecting other people's privacy, and vandalizing pages are not allowed. If you do any of these things, you will be blocked again.

If you think this block is unfair, you can ask to be unblocked by adding {{Unblock|your reason here}} below. If you cannot do this or the reason is private please send an e-mail to simple-admins-l@lists.wikimedia.org and an administrator will look at your reason and reply.

Musical groups

change

When you have an article like The New Barbarians (band) that is in a category like Category:Rock bands, it does not need to also be in Category:Musical groups. That is because the rock bands category is already under musical groups. For more information on this, see Wikipedia:Categories#Choosing the correct category. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. --Auntof6 (talk) 09:50, 23 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Additional note: the kind of overcategorization I mentioned above applies to other kinds of categories, too. For example, you had the following categories on Martin Garrix: Dutch people, Dutch musicians, and Musicians. The Dutch people and Musicians categories aren't needed because the article is already in the Dutch musicians categories. Please pay attention to this when you create articles. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 09:30, 1 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

  This is your only warning. The next time you make a bad page, you will be blocked from changing pages on Wikipedia. Do not create pages by copy/pasting the English Wikipedia article without simplifying the language. Operator873talkconnect 12:29, 9 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

This blocked user asked to be unblocked, but one or more administrators said no to this unblock request. Other administrators can also review this block, but should not unblock the user without a good reason. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

CPHL (contribs · deleted contribs · block log · filter log · global contribs)


Request reason:

I will not make a bad page again.

Decline reason:

You were given multiple warnings here, and continued to violate policies. The block you are under now is a One-Strike Block, even though you have committed multiple violations. You will need to deal with the block on En.Wiki first, before we will reconsider your block here. Feel free to re-request an unblock after your block has been dealt with and either lifted or expired on En.Wiki for further consideration here. -- Enfcer (talk) 10:58, 11 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I will not make disruptive edits again.

Decline reason:

You have already been told that until such time as you have dealt with the block reason on En.Wiki you will not likely be unblocked here. Please do not re request review until the other block has been taken care of or after no less then 6 months here whichever comes first. -- Enfcer (talk) 20:11, 15 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I want to create pages on Wikipedia.

Decline reason:

You were told when you can request an unblock again. Since you have requested it again without meeting the conditions given, I have now removed your ability to edit your talk page. -- Auntof6 (talk) 09:22, 17 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
