Inconveniente

Olá, @Teles: espero que você esteja bem. Estou me comunicando com você daqui porque tentei editar a Wikipedia em português e não consegui porque meu endereço IP está bloqueado em 2015, quando na verdade comecei a escrever esta enciclopédia em março do ano passado. Como você foi o usuário que fez o bloqueio, peço que me ajude a resolver a comodidade que não tem nada a ver comigo. Notifique-me na minha página de discussão quando desbloquear, obrigado. Alexismata7 (talk) 19:22, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Alexismata7: Sinto muito pelo inconveniente. Provavelmente, seu IP precisou ser bloqueado, mas não tenho como saber o motivo sem saber qual o IP. Pelo tempo, deve se tratar de um proxy aberto. É uma opção me enviar a mensagem de bloqueio que recebe (de preferência em privado para não expor seu IP) para que eu possa entender o que aconteceu. Caso não queira enviar diretamente para mim por questões de privacidade, pode querer enviar a um verificador do projeto. Fico no aguardo de seu retorno.—Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 17:27, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Teles,

We may have corresponded before. By reverting my edit you are helping a non orchid orchid expert perpetuate incorrect information. All world level orchid experts agree with Professor Choy sin and me. Please read the references below to inform yourself. Thank you. Joseph Arditti, Professor of Biology Emeritus, University of California, Irvine.

Why was I blocked?

Yesterday, March 28, the message below appeared on the article Josef Kieffer which I was editing at the time:

Begin Quote:

You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason: Your IP address is in a range that has been blocked on all Wikimedia Foundation wikis.

The block was made by Teles (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is Cross-wiki abuse.

Start of block: 05:07, 28 March 2021 Expiry of block: 12:07, 29 March 2021 Your current IP address is 2603:6080:8c02:5c00:68c9:2855:820c:aab and the blocked range is 2603:6080:0:0:0:0:0:0/32. Please include all above details in any queries you make.

End Quote.

I was puzzled by this message and my search through Wikipedia's help pages for enlightenment was mostly fruitless. I wrote an email to stewards@wikimedia.com asking for clarification. The only possible reason I could find for the block was that perhaps I had been accused of plagiarism. I had copied and adapted small amounts of explanatory material which I wrote in a related article about Francis Suttill to this article about Josef Kieffer.

A couple of hours later I was suddenly unblocked, again with no explanation. Whether it was my e-mail or something else that reversed the decision to block me, I don't know.

I've been creating content for eleven years on Wikipedia and have never encountered a situation like this before. I would appreciate an explanation of the reason for your action. I most certainly do not want a block to appear on my Wikipedia record. Smallchief (talk)

Removing my edit

I've updated the jeffrey sachs page with the phrase "Bolivia is still the poorest country in south america" and you deleted it demanding me to add a source.

Why not the same demand for the opening phrase of that paragraph? It starts with "When Sachs began advising Bolivia, it was the poorest country in South America and had an annual inflation rate of 24,000 percent. " When one reads this paragraph it has the impression that jefrrey sachs helped bolivia, but bolivia is still the poorest country in south america 5.55.122.178 (talk) 15:53, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for explaining. There is a reference for the beginning of the paragraph already. So, the demand is for every part of it. Looks like you are trying to emphasize that their work on that country wasn't successful enough to improve its economy. That is not a problem if that is true, but without source or context that also sounds negative and may leave the impression that their work was completely worthless. Is that the information you are trying to provide? —Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 16:03, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Removing my edit because of sources. The source is the subjects social media. Do I link social media accounts? Bondjamesbindjr (talk) 05:40, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Bondjamesbindjr, you may read "Wikipedia:Reliable sources" to find answers regarding this. Usually, social media sites are considered questionable and should be avoided. A more reliable, professional, peer-reviewed source is preferable.
Also, avoid mentioning on the article body that the content is wrong. If you find any incorrect information, this should be removed. You may start a discussion on article's talk page to identify which parts of the text are wrong. If you have any source to support that allegation, please add to the discussion. —Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 05:51, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Corrections to Yurena Rodríguez article

My edit corrections to Patricia Yurena Rodríguez article keep getting reverted and I keep getting warnings about being blocked from correcting false information on the page.

Ckatz and materialscientist keep reverting my corrections and sending me warnings. I mentioned the source was the subject, Yurena Rodríguez, own verified social media page and they are stating that is not a reliable source. How is her own words on her own social media page not a reliable source but the articles listed here, which are not correct sourced articles pertaining to the subject, allowed to stay Bondjamesbindjr (talk) 06:13, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

None of the sources listed on the page are correct. She has recently confirmed that what is listed on her wiki page is incorrect. The current page contains false information on the subject per the subjects own words via her social media. Bondjamesbindjr (talk) 06:34, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Bondjamesbindjr you have been asked to provide a link to that statement many times. I wonder why you haven’t done it. Could you please provide it? —Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 13:48, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You were provided with said source. I said it came from her social media page. I was told I could not list her social media page as a source. Also, source #13 is incorrect. No where in that, or any other source, did she claim she was pansexual. You question my sources, the actual person's word, but keep up a source that doesn't even cite what is claimed in the article here. There is a reason no one finds this website creadible. Bondjamesbindjr (talk) 15:59, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It can’t be that hard to provide a link. I don’t know how to be more clear about this simple request. —Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 16:58, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

deleted references

Bom dia. Those were the links to the official websites of the mentioned rail companies. The adresses themselves are unlikely to be amended in the longer prospective, so it is reasonable to include them, so people would have all the relevant information on hand once they need it (with no extra time spent to locate the sources). Wikipedias in other languages do this (as in many cases the updates on wiki-pages appear much later, than the relevant events happen). Adding the official links does not contradict with the aim of Wikipedia to spread knowledge. The assessment 'seems inappropriate' seems to be based rather on the old-school approach to printed encyclopedias, but I believe, that nowadays it, though being truly classy, should not be unconditionally applied to the web resources. So I do disagree with your amendment and consider it to be a mistake. Melhores cumprimentos.OllaBy (talk) 16:31, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@OllaBy, hello! Thanks for explaining. Are you planning to use those links as reference or external links? Are they working as a source for any information on article or they will work for extending the research outside of Wikipedia? If they are official links and you believe they fit with inclusion criteria, please feel free to add them, but don’t forget to format them to explain to readers why they were added and what are they linking to. Avoid just adding raw URL. To learn more about inclusion criteria and formatting, read this page. —Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 21:54, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cross-wiki vandalism

I believe that the user WorldCitizen2 is using multiple accounts to continue making his edits to the article Jardim Botânico, Federal District ([1]), even though he is blocked. Through the sockpuppet TheDuke1975, he continues to edit the article ([2]), promoting a cross-wiki vandalism also on the Portuguese wikipedia on the same article. The main account and their sockpuppet should be blocked globally. 200.133.1.60 (talk) 00:08, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User redirect

Hey, you orphaned a lot of links with the username change for User:Roggenwolf without leaving a redirect - was this in error? I think we usually do leave redirects from username changes - that user in question has previously changed their name not too long ago and there is a redirect to the name so following links from old discussions doesn't get orphaned. Raladic (talk) 16:53, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Raladic, hello! We usually leave redirects, but sometimes we don’t. It depends on the reason of request. Privacy issues, harassment, risk of violence, political persecution, retirement are more or less common reasons provided by some users. Users are usually eligible for that if they are in good standing. Sometimes, they request their user pages to be deleted; sometimes it is done at renamer discretion. Since we are not usually required to maintain a user page, those requests are commonly uncontroversial. Former user name will still be visible when you click the red link anyway. —Teles «Talk to me˱_{M @ C S}˲» 14:02, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
