User talk:TommFreemann

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or sock puppetry.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Progressive Design (PD°), and it appears to include material copied directly from http://progressivedesigntheory.com/.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

Hello TommFreemann,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Progressive Design (PD°) for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Trivialist (talk) 17:02, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That source is removed and the page should be reestablished. Can you help with that?

A tag has been placed on Design Heartache requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

The article Exponential Design Weight has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unsourced essay. I found no proof that this concept exists outside of Wikipedia.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the notes for the suspect, then respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/TommFreemann. Thank you.

This will allow you to make your case on the article's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the article. Thank you.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove a speedy deletion notice from a page you have created yourself, as you did at Productive Prototypes. Kinu ^t/_c 17:29, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  Kinu ^t/_c 18:05, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

TommFreemann (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I'm not abusing mutiple accounts. I and Jessica are friends, writing these articles together, as we try to explore and learn the wikipedia universe with our articles. So far, we have not felt very welcome, as all our efforts have been declined without reasoning or any on-boarding toward newcomers. This has been a sad waste of interest and effort and we hope to get a changed perspective of the wikipedia administration! TommFreemann (talk) 18:14, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The connection between your account and the Jessica account has been confirmed. Bbb23 (talk) 19:41, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Do you know Lindborg? Because it looks like you and Jessica have a conflict of interest about him. Also, saying that you weren't given reasons is false--you have plenty of warning messages. I am sorry that you did not feel like we had attempted "on-boarding". Do you hope to change your perspective or deliver a changed perspective, and if the second, to whom? Origamite^ⓣⓒ 18:57, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I dont understand the last question. I was not given a warning. By mistake and lack of knowledge, I removed the notice, for that I'm sorry, but I didnt know that would block me. Quickly after the automated warning, I was given a manual warning, then without notice, blocked. That is bad on-boarding behaviour for newcomers.

I don't know Lindborg personally, but I am a strong believe in his work, and would like to add to the public knowledge and scientific foundation, to wikipedia.

Non-admin bystander comment You were given on-boarding instructions. The first message on this page is the standard Wikipedia Welcome message. It lists seven articles that will "help you begin editing on Wikipedia", followed by seven "do's and don't's" of Wikipedia. All too often new users see that message and disregard it, ending in the position we're in now. We can't help it if you disregard the messages. Also, the speedy deletion templates that are placed on pages all contain the instruction:

If this article does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, or you intend to fix it, please remove this notice, but do not remove this notice from pages that you have created yourself.

Again, instructions commonly given and commonly ignored. And you received two different warnings about removing speedy deletion notices. You weren't blocked for the first incident, but rather for repeated incidents. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 19:17, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Again, newcomer, clearly a mistake as the "incident" was within the same session. Instead of arguing the obvious, just cite the required reading, so people can learn by their mistakes, thus improving the community

Please learn to WP:SIGN your posts. The block notice does not say you were blocked for removing speedy delete tags but for abusing multiple accounts. I am not the blocking administrator, but I subsequently blocked Jessica. Even assuming you and Jessica are friends, that still constitutes meat puppetry, which is also blockable. More important, no matter what your motives are, you both came in here and started creating many, many articles all related to one author and his book, and that author may not even be notable. That kind of activity from new accounts is generally viewed with suspicion.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:35, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The sock puppet investigation into you and Jessica has completed and confirmed by technical evidence that your account and the Jessica account are the same. You must be very close "friends".--Bbb23 (talk) 19:39, 13 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We are colleagues, and shared a computer. We are sorry if that seamed suspicious, that was not the intension, though we didn't know that would raise suspicion. We are both new to wikipedia, and started talking about a subject together for adding, thus helping each other getting into the wikipedia universe. If the block is lifted, we will learn and read the guidelines and rules in details for the future, trying not to help each other. Thanks for your guidance.

Can we continue with our journey or what is happening here?
