*{{ping|Ymblanter}} Your conclusion is incorrect. While I did ''accidentally'' violate a post-1932 politics topic ban, I was not previously aware that minor copyedits and the minor edits to an infobox were one-month ban worthy. I (incorrectly) believed that, to further violate a topic ban, I had to engage in edit wars (the reason I was banned) and make disruptive edits. The two edits I made today were the most mundane, uncontroversial, elementary edits I could possibly make. For that reason, I would like to request to be unblocked. I am now 100% filled in on even the most basic edits in a topic-area constitute a violation. Apologies. |

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Thousand Oaks shooting: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 15:31, 8 November 2018 (UTC)

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
- User contributions
- Recent changes
- Watchlists
- Revision differences

Important notices
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have recently shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect: any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or any page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor. Bishonen | talk 10:43, 28 November 2018 (UTC).

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please see MOS:LQ for how to handle punctuation in quotations on Wikipedia. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 21:48, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement topic ban
The following topic ban now applies to you:
You have been topic banned from post-1932 American politics for three months.
You have been sanctioned for persistent disruptive editing and edit warring. When I wrote in my warning here that you need to discuss on talkpages, I didn't mean that lying about sources on talkpages, as you do here, was an acceptable way of supporting edit warring on the article.
This topic ban is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/American politics 2#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. Please go to WP:TBAN and read the information there to see what a topic ban is. If you do not comply with the topic ban, you may be blocked for an extended period, to enforce the ban.
If you wish to appeal against the ban, please check out the process described here, or ask on my talk page and I will explain how to do it. Bishonen | talk 04:33, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
As you know you are banned from editing anything to do with post 1932 American politics. Paul Ryan is an article you are banned from editing. I have reverted your last edit to that page based on that ban. ~ GB fan 00:48, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
- I also reverted your edit to Pat McCrory as that is also covered under the ban. ~ GB fan 00:51, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the [[WP:AE|arbitration enforcement noticeboard]] or [[WP:AN|administrators' noticeboard]]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}
. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:22, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" [in the procedure]). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
What you need to do
I will be blunt: your behavior on Wikipedia is not acceptable to the community. None of your replies so far shows an understanding of what you did wrong or a commitment to change your behavior.
Here is what you need to do:
Spend your one-week block thinking about whether you are willing to follow our rules.
When your block expires, spend the next three months doing productive editing in other areas and getting along with other editors.
When your topic ban expires, limit your self to noncontroversial edits on the political pages (you might even want to stay away from them voluntarily for another three months), and just decide that you will never again get into a fight with another editor no matter how right you think you are and how wrong you think they are. Just walk away and let others deal with it. And no sneaky backdoor attempts to rejoin the battle, either; that will only get you blocked indefinitely. --Guy Macon (talk) 04:03, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

Request reason:
I promise I will not do it again. Please accept my ban appeal. Please copy my appeal to BOTH arbitration enforcement noticeboard and administrators' noticeboard and Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Decline reason:
Sit out your block, and go away for one week. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:30, 30 November 2018 (UTC) Appeal made by IP, not by logged-in user, so not a legitimate request. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 07:18, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
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.

- Geolocation for the IP addresses is consistent but also on the other side of the US from where you state your home town is on your user page. As this appears to be a Joe job, apologies for my earlier decline message, then. Ian.thomson (talk) 18:45, 30 November 2018 (UTC)

- Currently in Manhattan? The IP address geolocates to Queens. Not that that proves anything -- there are nearly nine million people in NYC -- but it isn't on the other side of the US, either. I believe KidAd when he says he didn't do it for three reasons: [1] He didn't have to mention Manhattan, [2] He doesn't strike me as being stupid, and evading your block with a post to AN would be very stupid indeed, and [3] WP:AGF. --Guy Macon (talk) 20:21, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
