My Wikipedia Block[edit]
How it happened
I was banned on Wikipedia for being a puppet master. Then, I did not know it was against the rules. I used a second account to weigh in on a Deletion Argument on the 2024 North Carolina Libertarian Presidential Primary.
Reaction
I was shocked. I tried understanding what I did wrong, and when I learned, I tried saying my little brother made the account. Of course that didn’t work, and I ended up letting the truth out. They said they were glad I told the truth, and an attempt to be unblocked would be available to me in 6 months (September 18, 2024). I admit, how I handled the situation? That was wrong. I was 100% wrong, and I wish I handled it better. In the past, I also had arguments with other editors, which was not good for collaboration in the Wikipedia Community. I was clearly being immature online, and I apologize for all of that.
March 18-September 18
For a week, I stopped using Wikimedia. I was mad at myself and knew I wouldn’t be able to edit Wikipedia for a while. Suddenly, I then realized I wasn’t blocked on any Wikimedia site. I could still contribute! I took myself to Wikimedia Commons, and did what I loved: Photography. If it was taking a picture of a my neighborhood, or uploading pictures that my Boss and best friend, George Micro and I took, I have been enjoying it.
I have also been on Wikipedia Simple English. A lot of the information isn’t up to date, so I try to fix it. I’ve lately been just editing 2024 presidential primaries.
Since the Wikipedia Block, I got in trouble for copyright on Commons. To that, I apologize. I could’ve learned more about Copyright, but I didn’t. It’s my fault, and it will never happen again.
As of the Wikipedia Block, I know what I did. I am extremely sorry for it. I can’t wait to be unblocked, so I can start editing again, and improving many different pages! I’m already thinking about updating multiple pages!
