"not an improvment"
[edit]hello and you reverted my edit but i was only trying to help, i wasent gonna make it better but i was trying to reword so i can edit and try contribute if this edit is bad then u could help me edit better? Tian you W (talk) 18:28, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
- There was nothing wrong with your edit. There was also nothing right with it -- there was no reason at all to make most of those changes. There's a lot of little broken things on Wikipedia; don't fix things that aren't broken! So I quite literally meant "not an improvement". --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 18:47, 3 April 2025 (UTC)

About a block
[edit]I think this has come up before. Hate to bring it up again, but please refrain from using profanity in summaries, as you did when blocking IP 58.8.156.9 Jlktutu (talk) 05:17, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- No. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 05:18, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- Sorry to ask this, only asking because I wanted to know, is there a reason? Jlktutu (talk) 05:20, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- @Jlktutu, that IP is one of the hundreds of proxies used by a certain WMF-banned user. ~SG5536B 05:21, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- That makes sense. Only curious about the language in the summary. Jlktutu (talk) 05:24, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- Wait a moment. I didn't use profanity when blocking that IP. My blocking reason for that IP was {{blocked proxy}}/MAB. I used profanity when deleting the IP talk page. I'm curious, are you tracking the deletion log for some interesting reason? --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 05:29, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- OK, that's fair. Apologies for mixing up the deletion of the Talk Page with the Block. Jlktutu (talk) 05:34, 11 April 2025 (UTC)

- No I am not Jlktutu (talk) 05:49, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- I suggest you stick to editing articles until you are very much more experienced; after looking at your talk page, it's clear you are getting a lot of stuff wrong. Slow the heck down. Stop issuing warnings, especially about things that are in the administrative realm. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 14:27, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
- I am not an Administrator. Just a regular Editor. I'll heed your advice, and stay in my own lane, i.e. editing Articles, as I am supposed to. About slowing down, yes, Editors and Administrators have posted on my Talk Page that I am doing things too fast. I am attempting to slow down and be more thoughtful. Thanks.

User UU
[edit]Hi just a little confused, On user UU's page there is a direct to this page. It is saying that it is a blocked editor, can you explain what this is all about it would be much appreciated as I am having problems with this editor. Maybe language barrier. Foristslow (talk) 22:43, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
- Fifteen years ago I deleted that page, which was created by a long-term abuser (not by the owner of the account). --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 22:59, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
- At the moment I am having problems with this user on a page. Is this the blocked user or the owner, confused right now?. Foristslow (talk) 23:05, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
- There's no reason for you to be concerned with their non-existent user page. Obviously, if they are editing, they aren't blocked. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 23:24, 12 April 2025 (UTC)
