Hi Plcoopr, and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm Ed, a recent college graduate and an editor here. As cliché as it sounds (try not to roll your eyes), Wikipedia is created by the collective contributions of regular people just like you, so I'm excited to work with you during the semester!

If you need any help, a visit to our Help:Contents page may be able to give you a swift answer. If it doesn't, please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page (click "new section" for a new post, or "edit" to reply to an older post) or ask your question on this page and place {{Helpme}} before the question. No question to me is too small, as I'm all too aware that this can be a ridiculously complex website.

Your professor has also posted a helpful set of links on your course page under "Resources".

I don't want to burden you with even more pages to read (I'm sure your classes have assigned you enough reading for a lifetime), so just remember:

• Help:Contents is your link to Wikipedia's extensive collection of help pages.
• You can usually type "WP:___" in the search bar to find what you want. For example, if you wanted to find out what a talk page is, searching for WP:TALK is pretty simple.
• If those don't work, don't panic. That's what I'm here for. Leave me a message and I'll see what I can do.

Good luck! I hope you enjoy your editing here—at least as much as any student can enjoy a class assignment!—and I encourage you to continue editing after your class ends. Ed  ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 18:39, 30 January 2013 (UTC) reply

You're welcome! Try to not remove mass amounts of information though. :-) Ed  ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 17:37, 31 January 2013 (UTC) reply

Hello, I'm ElKevbo. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! ElKevbo ( talk) 17:29, 31 January 2013 (UTC) reply

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a message letting you know that one of your recent edits has been undone by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

• ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made was constructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this message from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
• For help, take a look at the introduction.
• The following is the log entry regarding this message: Sean Connery was changed by Plcoopr (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.968036 on 2013-03-04T03:46:38+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG ( talk) 03:46, 4 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to 50 Cent, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Dawn Bard ( talk) 03:49, 4 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did to Yo with this edit, you may be blocked from editing. Seaphoto ^Talk 05:20, 4 March 2013 (UTC) reply

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at 50 Cent, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. JesseRafe ( talk) 06:52, 4 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. -- SineBot ( talk) 12:31, 4 March 2013 (UTC) reply

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{ unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.  -- Ed ( Edgar181) 18:21, 4 March 2013 (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).

Request reason:

I do apologize...I live in a fraternity house and left my computer unattended with wiki edits open for a period of time...my brothers were foolish and vandalized wikipedia...I am in SI 110 and need to have editing privileges to complete assignment...again I do sensorially apologize for allowing this happen under my name...please reconsider Plcoopr ( talk) 3:59 am, Today (UTC+0)

Decline reason:

I am sorry, but once an account is compromised, it cannot be unblocked. We have no way of knowing whether the above appeal comes from the account's original user or not, and so are obliged to err on the side of caution and leave the block in place. Yunshui  雲‍ 水 10:47, 5 March 2013 (UTC) reply

If that is the case, why would wikipedia allow for appealing...please reconsider...if their is any way to rectify the situation please reconsider. Plcoopr ( talk) 15:31, 5 March 2013 (UTC) reply

In cases like this, you are, however, usually permitted the following course of action:

• Create a new account - you may need to request an account if account creation from your IP is blocked.
• On the userpage of the new account, post a message linking your new account to this one (you can use the code {{User Previous Acct|1=Plcoopr}} to do this).
• Avoid leaving your account logged in or otherwise allowing anyone else to use it.

Your new account may be blocked for block evasion; if that happens, you can appeal the block through the new account, explaining the circumstances behind the original block of this account. Yunshui  雲‍ 水 20:10, 5 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Comment There is nothing distinguishable from this user's "true edits" and the style of harassment and vandalism displayed while logged on after he began to receive the warnings. Notably his use of his user name and his use of the four tildes in the edit summaries. The permanent block is, I believe, the way to go. JesseRafe ( talk) 18:23, 6 March 2013 (UTC) reply

I am asking for assistance with phrasing on unblocking. Is there anything I can do to exonerate and clear my name. Plcoopr ( talk) 17:36, 11 March 2013 (UTC) reply

I can reassure this was not my doing and can GUARANTEE this behavior will not happen again.

If you look at my previos contributions...I have only provided quality edits on wikipedia...please review MY actual works, you will find noting but the utmost of respectable habits and contributions...I even created a page within my first few week on the site. Plcoopr ( talk) 17:42, 11 March 2013 (UTC) reply

I recognize this behavior was unsavory and disgusting, However I can ensure this will never happen under my IP again and will guard my account like none other

Try the steps above; if you are unable to create an account, as outlined by Yunshui, request one at WP:ACC. hmssolent\ ^{Let's convene} _{My patrols} 14:23, 13 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Thanks for uploading File:Lisa Bonet.jpg, which you've attributed to pagerank. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{ OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{ non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Ronhjones   ^(Talk) 17:52, 31 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Suggest you have a look at WP:DCM. You need to find out who holds the copyright (often the photographer, but he may have sold the copyright to someone else - a web site owner, book publisher, etc.). Then whoever is the copyright holder has to send in the form at WP:CONSENT to the indicated address. Alternatively (for web sites), the web site owner (assuming (s)he holds the copyright) can place one of the following licenses.- CC-BY-SA; CC-BY; PD (not a good one - better to have CC-0 instead) - for example here's one web site I know has a page just to show the pictures and the appropriate CC-BY-SA license logo so they may be used on Wikipedia, if suitable - http://www.robbieglover.com/wp-content.htm - although not all are suitable as they are photos of other copyright objects (newspapers) - copyright law is complicated!  Ronhjones   ^(Talk) 20:37, 31 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Hi Plcoopr! As a student editor on Wikipedia, you have a lot of valuable experience about what it's like to edit as a part of a classroom assignment. In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it's extremely helpful to hear from real student editors about their challenges, successes, and support needs. Please take a few minutes to answer these questions by clicking below. (Note that the responses are posted to a public wiki page.) Thanks!

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Flood myth, you may be blocked from editing. Theroadislong ( talk) 21:29, 15 April 2013 (UTC) reply

Hello, Plcoopr,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Peretz P. Friedmann should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peretz P. Friedmann .

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
