Revision as of 22:52, 10 August 2006
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. - Samsara (talk • contribs) 17:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Answer on the article discussion!--KarlV 19:56, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- You have been blocked for 24 hours for violation WP:3RR on Bad Nenndorf. This includes the edit you made as an IP. pschemp | talk 20:04, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
WP:POINT
You have been blocked indefinitely for an egregious violation of WP:POINT concerning the article Bad Nenndorf. Misplaced Pages is not an experiment for you to play with. Your actions incited disruption and unneeded edit warring. The place where you admit that you used Misplaced Pages as an experiment is documented here. pschemp | talk 21:47, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
- I agree with this block: it's great when Wikipedians from other languages cross over to another language, but please don't use other Wikipedias for your experiments, thanks! --JoanneB 22:03, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Request reason:
Dear all, I didn't intend to engage in WP:POINT. I was just checking that the same mistake didn't appear in the English Wiki as it had in the German one. I'm sorry for breaking the 3RR rule and I undertake to edit within the policies from now on. My imperfect English led me to call what I was doing an "experiment", which some people have taken the wrong way. I won't make that mistake again, and I apologize to all concerned for the confusion I caused. Please can I be unblocked? Kind regards --KarlV 12:13, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Decline reason:
As below, also I notice your userpage declares "This user is able to contribute with an advanced level of English."
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
- I read your piece in German and it meant the same thing. Your experiment had nothing to do with imperfect English. If you'd like to apologize for getting decent hard working editors being suspected as neo-nazis, that would be a real start. You still haven't admitted that what you did was wrong, only said that people "took it the wrong way". That is not acceptable. pschemp | talk 16:22, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- (English translation can be provided if needed…) Karl, dass du mit „experiment“ „Test“ meintest, ändert nichts an der Tatsache, dass dein Test völlig unangemessen war. Was mich, und sicherlich auch ein paar Administratoren, interessiert, ist, ob du, falls die Sperrung aufgehoben würde, bereit wärst, dich ausschließlich konstruktiv und unter gleichzeitiger Beachtung der Regeln zu beteiligen. Naja, und ein Zeichen deines Einsehens, dass deine Aktionen auch über die eigentliche Verletzung von 3RR hinaus falsch waren, würde helfen. Dein Englisch ist nämlich nicht so schlecht, dass du allein dafür gesperrt würdest, und da, wo du das gleiche auf deutsch und auf englisch gesagt hast, waren die Aussagen imho ähnlich genug. Die aktuelle Sperrung lag nicht an einem Übersetzungsfehler, und ich möchte dir raten, auf derartige Argumente, Andeutungen o. ä. zu verzichten, allein schon, um pschemp’s Nerven zu schonen. —xyzzyn 17:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- P.S. Ich habe auf deutsch geschrieben, um meinen Kommentar für dich möglichst klar zu gestalten. Falls du dem Rest der Welt diesbezüglich etwas sagen willst, solltest du das natürlich wieder auf englisch tun (oder jemanden bitten, dich zu übersetzen). —xyzzyn 17:18, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
