I am. I gave Tymewalk a barnstar for his work when making excellent contributions to Wikipedia. KirkburnFandom (talk) 14:54, 2 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello, I noticed that in an article Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, you thought I put promotional material and you're trying to delete the page. I would never do that. I don't put promotional material into articles. I just edit them. Please don't delete the article. I will make sure no one puts promotional detail in articles. Thank you.

My apologies. Sorry, I won’t try and delete the article next time. I do not have adminship here. Kind regards, KirkburnFandom (talk) 17:30, 3 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Creating articles here

change

Welcome back. Please remember that we are the Simple English Wikipedia. The words you used in Tobacco smoking were really far from simple, so please try and simplify the article when you have time. Also, try using the BE 1500 wordlist - are these words in the wordlist? If not, use simpler words that are in that wordlist. Imagine you're writing an encyclopedia article for a child to read. Thanks, --Belwine💬📜 10:35, 6 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Ok, sorry about that. I will try and use simple English next time. KirkburnFandom (talk) 13:13, 6 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

I have seen your edits to the article. George (Kirkburn) (talk) 13:53, 7 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

I understand though. It is on the complicated side of things to explain.
When writing articles like this, just think, would a child understand this if I read the article to them? Thanks, --Belwine💬📜 20:05, 7 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

In all likelihood, children would not understand the article if you read it to them. I’ll try and stick to the non complicated side if necessary. Frankly, I was talking about the scientific information about smoking. Thank you. If this is a reliable and verifiable encyclopedia, like all Wikipedias connected to MediaWiki projects, we need scientific information to help people understand the adverse effects of smoking and increase their knowledge on other scientific subjects.

Tagging userpages

change

Hi there. Please do not create userpages of blocked users with the {{blocked}} template. This is not very useful, and with some vandals could give them the attention they want (see WP:DENY). The template primarily serves to replace content on an already existing userpage, and then allows them to be deleted by putting them in the "temporary user page" category. Thanks, --IWI (talk) 15:17, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Sorry. I will not do that from now on. George (Kirkburn) (talk) 15:37, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Unblock request

change
 

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.

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


Request reason:

I believe I have not done anything wrong because I read the rules and the policies and guidelines when joining Wikipedia. I also believe that technical CheckUser evidence was not the cause of my block because I have followed your policies, reverted vandalism, helped editors and edited constructively. Frankly, I know evading a block is not allowed on any sort of wiki, so I believe the technical evidence is completely nonsensical, and nothing in the block reason leads me to believe that I evaded a block, so the evidence leads me to believe that I have committed sockpuppetry is not the case. George (Kirkburn) (talk) 12:45, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Hello George. Technical information obtained through the CheckUser tool has confirmed that you used multiple accounts. I have reviewed this information and came to the same conclusion. The block rationale is accurate. If you'd like to return to contributing here, please wait a few months (do not make any more accounts or try to edit) and, afterwards, appeal. That will make your chances of a successful appeal more likely than an appeal immediately after abusing multiple accounts. Best regards, Vermont (talk) 13:54, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Ok then. Sorry, Vermont. I promise not to evade a block. George (Kirkburn) (talk) 14:01, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
