Welcome!
Hi. Just wanted to let you know that any math notation should be italic, so instead of a plain
- K
one should use instead either
- <math>K</math>
or otherwise the html equivalent
- ''K''
Also, it is good to use an edit summary when you contribute, as suggested above. It does help understand what you changed. Thanks, and enjoy the wiki. Oleg Alexandrov ( talk) 18:21, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
You recently added two future episode titles and summaries to the list. Please note that this information can only be added when it is supported by a verifiable and reliable source. TV.com is not considered as a reliable source as it is user-submitted. The only source that is considered valid is the press release by FOX, which will also be published by the media like TV Guide. Thus, your entries have been removed. Regards, Ladida 22:59, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi. Sorry deleting your edits indicating "nonsense info". The reason is written by Ladida above. -- Magioladitis 02:39, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Hey. I've reverted your move from Fin Del Camino to Fin del Camino as the title that is shown on the press release is actually "Fin Del Camino". Regards, Ladida 09:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
You have tagged Captain Murphy (TV series) with {{ rfd}}, but you have not completed the nomination by listing it at WP:RFD. RFD nominations are a two step process. Please complete the second step on the nomination instructions. If you do not list it within a reasonable amount of time, I will assume you no longer wish it deleted and remove the tag. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 03:03, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
How exactly do those meet the guideline? Episodes must contain out of universe material (reception and development, not directors) backed by secondary sources (these have none). Plot summaries cannot be the only content on the page; an episode has to have pretty much all the things outlined on the guideline. TTN 10:53, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
- As I stated, you cannot just take a couple of those. They need plot summaries along with reception and development. You cannot pick and choose. You also need verifiable info from secondary sources before the articles are even created.
TTN 17:07, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
- I just picked an episode at random (
Death (Fullmetal Alchemist)), one that you reverted TTN's redirect. Your edit summary said "there is no violation of WP:EP". Well, not only do they not come close to the guidelines set forth by WP:EPISODE, but they are clear violation of copyrights. The screenshot, and the plot, are both non-free, and thus must provide a fair-use rationale for their existence. When it comes to images, FU rationales are on the image page (which the image has, but does not fulfill). For plot summaries, you need realworld context on the page to justify their use. That means production information, or reception information, or something that isn't "in-universe". This page has nothing but a plot (one that is overly long at that), thus it not only doesn't meet the criteria for an episode article, but it meets the criteria to considered a copyright violation. Remember, all shows are copyrighted by their networks, as the only reason we are allowed to give any kind of detail is because we are supposed to be provided critical commentary on the subject. This isn't IMDb, or TV.com, this is an encyclopedia. The only way we can justify encyclopedic fair use is to provide critical commentary, which goes for the image as well. Just putting a generic fair use rationale on the image isn't enough. There needs to be critical commentary in the article to justify needing an image to illustrate something. This is why all those images were pulled from the "list of episodes" articles. Because do not justify image use, and detailed plots (like what is in the article that I linked) can cause legal problems. And studios have successfully sued over this type of infringement. Being a "non-profit" business doesn't exclude us from lawsuits and copyright infringements, especially when we don't provide a justifiable reason for their use. Wikipedia isn't a substitution for watching an episode, a film, or reading a book. I saw your comment to TTN, and yes, plot summaries should be included..but to add context to the real world information. Plot summaries should never be their own articles.

You've recently posted this on my talk page: "There is nothing at Wikipedia:Television episodes to justify your redirecting all of them to List of Fullmetal Alchemist episodes. In fact, according to the Content section of that article, a plot summary and information on an episode's significance to the overall plot SHOULD be included in the article. If you feel that the articles contained too much plot summary as to be a violation of Wikipedia's fair use policies then you should have simply cut down those parts of the articles. Furthermore, next time kindly discuss such radical changes before taking them. As a result, I am restoring all the articles. If you wish to discuss this further, reply at my talk page. However, until then please do not redirect the articles again. Thanks for your understanding. Fullmetal2887 05:42, 6 June 2007 (UTC)"
What are you talking about!? The only change I've EVER made to ANY Full Metal Alchemist page was a grammar correction in the trivia section in To Challenge The Sun! You say I've redirected all the Fullmetal Alchemist pages and done major edits to plot summaries? If you look on my contribution page, or the history page for Fullmetal Alchemist, you'll see IT WASN'T ME. Either that, or someone else has used my name for their edits, and whatever you're babbling about wasn't me. Check my contributions page for proof!

Image:Fullmetal Alchemist s01e26.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, the image is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

There is currently a discussion at
Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.
NedFausa (
talk) 18:30, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
{{
unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. El_C 18:32, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
Fullmetal2887 ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
In his block request, NedFausa incorrectly stated that I "show a pattern spanning nearly three years of violating Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy by clearly expressing editorial bias." Among the examples he cites:
- United States Senate, which I admit was one example of bias. I understand that this edit was disruptive and violated Wikipedia's policies. However, this was a single, isolated incident born of extreme frustration, which I would not repeat if unblocked. It is my desire and intention to contribute positively to Wikipedia for years to come, including on topics related to U.S. politics and the presidency of Donald Trump.
- Impeachment trial of Donald Trump, in which I correctly noted that part of the reason for impeachment is Trump's alleged obstruction of Congress, which in fact is the second article of impeachment. This is not an expression of editorial bias.
- Donald J. Trump Foundation and Donald Trump disclosure of classified information to Russia, which were mistakenly caused by a Chrome browser extension. Those were good-faith edits in which "Trump" got changed to "Drumpf" accidentally.
- Fox News, in which I categorized Fox News as "state media". This characterization has wide support in many reputable sources, including [1], [2], [3], and [4], along with numerous others.
I have a 13-year-long history of making valuable contributions to Wikipedia (including reversions of vandalism) and have been thanked by other editors and administrators for my edits many times. I have never engaged in edit-warring or other disruptive behavior prior to this incident. This long history is strong evidence that I do not meet the criteria of WP:NOTHERE, which El C erroneously cited as justification for blocking me. One incident of vandalism is hardly grounds for an indefinite block, and I will not make any such disruptive edits again if unblocked. A continuing block on me would contradict the policy that blocks should be preventative and not punitive. Fullmetal2887 ( discuss me) 04:14, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
The edit you made about the US Senate was visible for over an hour and was seen by readers and made viral on social media, which damaged Wikipedia's reputation. Combined with your other edits, it seems to me that you are too passionate about US politics or at a minimum issues related to the Trump administration to be able to edit about it objectively(your browser extension, while certainly your choice to have, doesn't help) I'm not convinced here that you won't make another similar edit due to frustration, so I must decline your request. It will be up to the next reviewer, but I suspect you will need to agree to some sort of topic ban from edits related to the Trump administration or even US politics in general.
331dot (
talk) 11:08, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Support decline decision. The user appealing this failed to mention that they had a chance to rescind the edit and apologize for a temporary lack of judgment but did the opposite. Instead, the user said "I stand by my edit, which was 100% factually correct."
[5] The user performed the edit and within minutes, a Twitter post appears that highlights the exact edit that performed the vandalism. Because of our
WP:OUTING policy, we are limited in how much we can link on-wiki users with social media profiles or actual human identities. However, this much is clear: a Twitter user bragged about this vandalism edit publicly on social media, which gained more than 9,000 likes and 2,500 retweets. The Twitter user took pleasure in the resulting compliments and inspired other forms of on-wiki vandalism. The resulting vandalism was picked up by media outlets. The wiki user did not express regret until blocked.
Therefore, this block is indeed preventative and not punitive, as the user has not been transparent nor complete in describing the series of events. It has been up to the admins here to reconcile and clean up behind the activities of the user. The user is potentially in violation of multiple aspects of the
WP:NOTHERE policy - self-interest, amusing outside parties, editorial dishonesty, lack of interest in working constructively. If the user wants any chance of being reinstated, I suggest they volunteer all the relevant info openly and completely. Full disclosure: I was originally involved as an admin for the request for page protection for
U.S. Senate article, but did not have interaction with
Fullmetal2887. --

Request reason:
I tweeted an apology here: [7], and I unpinned my original tweet hours ago. I don't think it should be deleted as that would be an alteration of history, but I disavowed my actions and encouraged people not to repeat them.Bad block. @El C: A quick look at Fullmetal's contribs shows that your reason of WP:NOTHERE is false on its face. One bad edit does not render an editor NOTHERE. If an otherwise productive editor has a problem with political articles, a TBAN from the community is a lot clearer than forcing an editor to agree to one as an unblock condition from an indef. And your citing concern over Wikipedia's reputation is, frankly, bullshit. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:50, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
The issue of vandalism to the U.S. Senate article itself justifies blocking. The other edits also justify blocking since blocks are meant to be protective, not punitive. For instance, an improperly configured browser extension may have resulted in unintended vandalism, but vandalism nonetheless did result. An indefinite block is not permanent and WP:STANDARDOFFER always applies. Continuation of the block for a period of time would allow the editor in question to check things like their browser extensions to ensure they are interacting on WP using reliable software.

I can't review this again. But if you hadn't have put the edit there in the first place, it wouldn't have needed to be reverted an hour later or even ten seconds later. The block is not a punishment; I was unconvinced that you would not act out of frustration again in the future. A topic ban would help with that- and I will leave it to whomever reviews this to decide what the topic ban should cover. 331dot ( talk) 16:59, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- It is fair to say that if I hadn't put the edit there in the first place, it wouldn't have needed to be reverted. I sincerely apologize and I won't make this mistake again. Fullmetal2887 ( discuss me) 17:08, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Since administrator Fuzheado introduced on this thread a Twitter user who "bragged about this vandalism edit publicly on social media, which gained more than 9,000 likes and 2,500 retweets," I feel free to expand upon that point.
"It is unreasonable to punish me for my edit going viral on social media," Fullmetal2887 contends, "as the tweets that first went viral about it were not even my own."
That is false. I checked all 1,633 tweets since:2020-01-30 until:2020-02-01 that included the words Senate AND (dead OR died OR formerly), and found just two that even broke into triple digits of RTs and/or Likes. Obviously neither went viral. The top such tweet had but 141 RTs and 349 Likes. And, significantly, none of those 1,633 tweets mentioned Wikipedia. The only tweet that subsequently went viral and mentioned Wikipedia was posted an hour after the viral tweet boasting "I made some edits to Wikipedia this morning #RIPGOP #RIPSenate #RIPDemocracy #RIPAmerica" and including a screenshot of our vandalized United States Senate page.
Of course, Fullmetal2887 has not acknowledged that he is the Twitter user who bragged about this vandalism a mere two minutes after Fullmetal2887 edited Wikipedia. And to be sure, there is room for doubt. For example, as Fuzheado notes, "The wiki user did not express regret until blocked." By contrast, the Twitter user has neither apologized nor expressed regret. Au contraire! He has repeatedly confirmed he made the edit; has not deleted his tweet that went viral, instead making it his account's pinned tweet lest anyone mistake him for some other vandal; and has unashamedly basked in the attention (both pro and con) this escapade has brought him.
So maybe, just maybe, Fullmetal2887 is being wrongfully blamed for trying to score brownie points outside of Wikipedia. Ya think? NedFausa ( talk) 20:48, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

I never expected or wanted all the attention it subsequently received, although I admit I did enjoy it at the time. I realize it was a mistake both to commit and perhaps especially to brag about the vandalism, and I have since tweeted to discourage people from repeating my error. I don’t know what more I can do to convince you that I won’t do anything like this again. I just want to move on from this incident.

NedFausa: my tweet had received very little attention (as you would expect since I previously only had ~100 followers) until @JoyceWhiteVance tweeted about it. I never expected or wanted all the attention it subsequently received, although I admit I did enjoy it at the time. I realize it was a mistake both to commit and perhaps especially to brag about the vandalism, and I have since tweeted to discourage people from repeating my error. I don’t know what more I can do to convince you that I won’t do anything like this again. I just want to move on from this incident.

NedFausa, this new comment seems to be more about personal interpretation of Twitter messages than Wikipedia. An ANI thread exists; let's perhaps keep the discussion in one place, and let's focus on Wikipedia itself when discussing the topic.

- I'm aware of the ANI, having filed that report myself. But I was under the impression that we are here (user Talk page) specifically discussing the block. So I commented here, not there. As to personal interpretation of Twitter messages, that is germane to the user's unblock request, where he asserts he's being punished for his edit going viral on social media, particularly on Twitter. Fullmetal2887 opened the door, and I responded on point and at the same thread. NedFausa ( talk) 22:19, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- Further to the relevance of tweets in considering Fullmetal2887's unblock request: Administrator
El C, who
blocked Fullmetal2887 on 1 Feb 2020, welcomed him to draft an unblock request
but added: "I, for one, am unwilling to take the risk of it happening again without some especially strong assurances." For his part,
Fullmetal2887 assures us: "I sincerely apologize and I won't make this mistake again." The keyword is sincerely. In gauging this editor's sincerity, Twitter could be uniquely helpful. Certainly Fullmetal2887 is under no obligation to reveal his Twitter username. But as I mentioned above, the Twitter user in question has not apologized, and is taking exactly the same stance as
Fullmetal2887 himself did on 1 Feb 2020 at my request for page protection of
United States Senate: "I stand by my edit," he declared defiantly, "which was 100% factually correct." Under the circumstances, it would greatly clarify our understanding if Fullmetal2887 would voluntarily for the record deny and disavow the Twitter user whom both
The Independent and
Huff Post have identified as Bruce Halperin
@BruceHalperin, and who is obviously not the least contrite.

In case you're unblocked...
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 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 the 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.
NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 20:01, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
I believe Fullmetal has apologized adequately. Looking at his contributions in other areas, it is surely not the case that he's not here to contribute. The Trump —> Drumpf thing is stupid, but I (and no doubt other admins) have several times excused users who used that stupid extension without realizing what harm it could do on Wikipedia. (I remember especially one guy who changed every occurrence of "Trump" on the entire ANI page to "Drumpf", and had no idea he had done so.) On the other hand, I have taken on board the worries expressed above, e. g. by 331dot, that Fullmetal might act out of frustration again in the future. Therefore, I won't lift the block unconditionally, but am willing to exchange it for a topic ban from post-1932 American politics. That topic ban can be appealed no sooner than six months from now. I also need a personal assurance from Fullmetal that he has removed the "Drumpf" extension, or in some other way has made sure it will never affect Wikipedia again. Fullmetal, please look up WP:TBAN to see what a "topic ban" is, and reply below to say if my conditions are acceptable to you. Bishonen | talk 15:46, 5 February 2020 (UTC).

- Glad to hear it. In the meantime, I've done some thinking about the topic ban, and decided that it really isn't necessary in this case to make it indefinite with an appeal in six months. Instead I'm topic banning you from post-1932 American politics for six months, to expire automatically on August 12. The block has been lifted and the t-ban is logged here.

You recently added two future episode titles and summaries to the list. Please note that this information can only be added when it is supported by a verifiable and reliable source. TV.com is not considered as a reliable source as it is user-submitted. The only source that is considered valid is the press release by FOX, which will also be published by the media like TV Guide.

How exactly do those meet the guideline? Episodes must contain out of universe material (reception and development, not directors) backed by secondary sources (these have none). Plot summaries cannot be the only content on the page; an episode has to have pretty much all the things outlined on the guideline. TTN 10:53, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
- As I stated, you cannot just take a couple of those. They need plot summaries along with reception and development. You cannot pick and choose. You also need verifiable info from secondary sources before the articles are even created.
TTN 17:07, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
- I just picked an episode at random (
Death (Fullmetal Alchemist)), one that you reverted TTN's redirect. Your edit summary said "there is no violation of WP:EP". Well, not only do they not come close to the guidelines set forth by WP:EPISODE, but they are clear violation of copyrights. The screenshot, and the plot, are both non-free, and thus must provide a fair-use rationale for their existence. When it comes to images, FU rationales are on the image page (which the image has, but does not fulfill). For plot summaries, you need realworld context on the page to justify their use. That means production information, or reception information, or something that isn't "in-universe". This page has nothing but a plot (one that is overly long at that), thus it not only doesn't meet the criteria for an episode article, but it meets the criteria to considered a copyright violation. Remember, all shows are copyrighted by their networks, as the only reason we are allowed to give any kind of detail is because we are supposed to be provided critical commentary on the subject. This isn't IMDb, or TV.com, this is an encyclopedia. The only way we can justify encyclopedic fair use is to provide critical commentary, which goes for the image as well. Just putting a generic fair use rationale on the image isn't enough. There needs to be critical commentary in the article to justify needing an image to illustrate something. This is why all those images were pulled from the "list of episodes" articles. Because do not justify image use, and detailed plots (like what is in the article that I linked) can cause legal problems. And studios have successfully sued over this type of infringement. Being a "non-profit" business doesn't exclude us from lawsuits and copyright infringements, especially when we don't provide a justifiable reason for their use. Wikipedia isn't a substitution for watching an episode, a film, or reading a book. I saw your comment to TTN, and yes, plot summaries should be included..but to add context to the real world information. Plot summaries should never be their own articles.

You've recently posted this on my talk page: "There is nothing at Wikipedia:Television episodes to justify your redirecting all of them to List of Fullmetal Alchemist episodes. In fact, according to the Content section of that article, a plot summary and information on an episode's significance to the overall plot SHOULD be included in the article. If you feel that the articles contained too much plot summary as to be a violation of Wikipedia's fair use policies then you should have simply cut down those parts of the articles. Furthermore, next time kindly discuss such radical changes before taking them. As a result, I am restoring all the articles. If you wish to discuss this further, reply at my talk page. However, until then please do not redirect the articles again. Thanks for your understanding. Fullmetal2887 05:42, 6 June 2007 (UTC)"

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited My Way, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gypsy Kings. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.
NedFausa (

{{
unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. El_C 18:32, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
Fullmetal2887 ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
In his block request, NedFausa incorrectly stated that I "show a pattern spanning nearly three years of violating Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy by clearly expressing editorial bias." Among the examples he cites:
- United States Senate, which I admit was one example of bias. I understand that this edit was disruptive and violated Wikipedia's policies. However, this was a single, isolated incident born of extreme frustration, which I would not repeat if unblocked. It is my desire and intention to contribute positively to Wikipedia for years to come, including on topics related to U.S. politics and the presidency of Donald Trump.
- Impeachment trial of Donald Trump, in which I correctly noted that part of the reason for impeachment is Trump's alleged obstruction of Congress, which in fact is the second article of impeachment. This is not an expression of editorial bias.
- Donald J. Trump Foundation and Donald Trump disclosure of classified information to Russia, which were mistakenly caused by a Chrome browser extension. Those were good-faith edits in which "Trump" got changed to "Drumpf" accidentally.
- Fox News, in which I categorized Fox News as "state media". This characterization has wide support in many reputable sources, including [1], [2], [3], and [4], along with numerous others.
I have a 13-year-long history of making valuable contributions to Wikipedia (including reversions of vandalism) and have been thanked by other editors and administrators for my edits many times. I have never engaged in edit-warring or other disruptive behavior prior to this incident. This long history is strong evidence that I do not meet the criteria of WP:NOTHERE, which El C erroneously cited as justification for blocking me. One incident of vandalism is hardly grounds for an indefinite block, and I will not make any such disruptive edits again if unblocked. A continuing block on me would contradict the policy that blocks should be preventative and not punitive. Fullmetal2887 ( discuss me) 04:14, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
The edit you made about the US Senate was visible for over an hour and was seen by readers and made viral on social media, which damaged Wikipedia's reputation. Combined with your other edits, it seems to me that you are too passionate about US politics or at a minimum issues related to the Trump administration to be able to edit about it objectively(your browser extension, while certainly your choice to have, doesn't help) I'm not convinced here that you won't make another similar edit due to frustration, so I must decline your request. It will be up to the next reviewer, but I suspect you will need to agree to some sort of topic ban from edits related to the Trump administration or even US politics in general.
331dot (
talk) 11:08, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Support decline decision. The user appealing this failed to mention that they had a chance to rescind the edit and apologize for a temporary lack of judgment but did the opposite. Instead, the user said "I stand by my edit, which was 100% factually correct."
[5] The user performed the edit and within minutes, a Twitter post appears that highlights the exact edit that performed the vandalism. Because of our
WP:OUTING policy, we are limited in how much we can link on-wiki users with social media profiles or actual human identities. However, this much is clear: a Twitter user bragged about this vandalism edit publicly on social media, which gained more than 9,000 likes and 2,500 retweets. The Twitter user took pleasure in the resulting compliments and inspired other forms of on-wiki vandalism. The resulting vandalism was picked up by media outlets. The wiki user did not express regret until blocked.
Therefore, this block is indeed preventative and not punitive, as the user has not been transparent nor complete in describing the series of events. It has been up to the admins here to reconcile and clean up behind the activities of the user. The user is potentially in violation of multiple aspects of the
WP:NOTHERE policy - self-interest, amusing outside parties, editorial dishonesty, lack of interest in working constructively. If the user wants any chance of being reinstated, I suggest they volunteer all the relevant info openly and completely. Full disclosure: I was originally involved as an admin for the request for page protection for
U.S. Senate article, but did not have interaction with
Fullmetal2887. --

Request reason:
I tweeted an apology here: [7], and I unpinned my original tweet hours ago. I don't think it should be deleted as that would be an alteration of history, but I disavowed my actions and encouraged people not to repeat them.Bad block. @El C: A quick look at Fullmetal's contribs shows that your reason of WP:NOTHERE is false on its face. One bad edit does not render an editor NOTHERE. If an otherwise productive editor has a problem with political articles, a TBAN from the community is a lot clearer than forcing an editor to agree to one as an unblock condition from an indef. And your citing concern over Wikipedia's reputation is, frankly, bullshit. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:50, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
The issue of vandalism to the U.S. Senate article itself justifies blocking. The other edits also justify blocking since blocks are meant to be protective, not punitive. For instance, an improperly configured browser extension may have resulted in unintended vandalism, but vandalism nonetheless did result. An indefinite block is not permanent and WP:STANDARDOFFER always applies. Continuation of the block for a period of time would allow the editor in question to check things like their browser extensions to ensure they are interacting on WP using reliable software.

I can't review this again. But if you hadn't have put the edit there in the first place, it wouldn't have needed to be reverted an hour later or even ten seconds later. The block is not a punishment; I was unconvinced that you would not act out of frustration again in the future. A topic ban would help with that- and I will leave it to whomever reviews this to decide what the topic ban should cover. 331dot ( talk) 16:59, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- It is fair to say that if I hadn't put the edit there in the first place, it wouldn't have needed to be reverted. I sincerely apologize and I won't make this mistake again. Fullmetal2887 ( discuss me) 17:08, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
Since administrator Fuzheado introduced on this thread a Twitter user who "bragged about this vandalism edit publicly on social media, which gained more than 9,000 likes and 2,500 retweets," I feel free to expand upon that point.
"It is unreasonable to punish me for my edit going viral on social media," Fullmetal2887 contends, "as the tweets that first went viral about it were not even my own."
That is false. I checked all 1,633 tweets since:2020-01-30 until:2020-02-01 that included the words Senate AND (dead OR died OR formerly), and found just two that even broke into triple digits of RTs and/or Likes. Obviously neither went viral. The top such tweet had but 141 RTs and 349 Likes. And, significantly, none of those 1,633 tweets mentioned Wikipedia. The only tweet that subsequently went viral and mentioned Wikipedia was posted an hour after the viral tweet boasting "I made some edits to Wikipedia this morning #RIPGOP #RIPSenate #RIPDemocracy #RIPAmerica" and including a screenshot of our vandalized United States Senate page.
Of course, Fullmetal2887 has not acknowledged that he is the Twitter user who bragged about this vandalism a mere two minutes after Fullmetal2887 edited Wikipedia. And to be sure, there is room for doubt. For example, as Fuzheado notes, "The wiki user did not express regret until blocked." By contrast, the Twitter user has neither apologized nor expressed regret. Au contraire! He has repeatedly confirmed he made the edit; has not deleted his tweet that went viral, instead making it his account's pinned tweet lest anyone mistake him for some other vandal; and has unashamedly basked in the attention (both pro and con) this escapade has brought him.
So maybe, just maybe, Fullmetal2887 is being wrongfully blamed for trying to score brownie points outside of Wikipedia. Ya think? NedFausa ( talk) 20:48, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

NedFausa, this new comment seems to be more about personal interpretation of Twitter messages than Wikipedia. An ANI thread exists; let's perhaps keep the discussion in one place, and let's focus on Wikipedia itself when discussing the topic.
~ ToBeFree (
talk) 21:53, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- I'm aware of the ANI, having filed that report myself. But I was under the impression that we are here (user Talk page) specifically discussing the block. So I commented here, not there. As to personal interpretation of Twitter messages, that is germane to the user's unblock request, where he asserts he's being punished for his edit going viral on social media, particularly on Twitter. Fullmetal2887 opened the door, and I responded on point and at the same thread. NedFausa ( talk) 22:19, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
- Further to the relevance of tweets in considering Fullmetal2887's unblock request: Administrator
El C, who
blocked Fullmetal2887 on 1 Feb 2020, welcomed him to draft an unblock request
but added: "I, for one, am unwilling to take the risk of it happening again without some especially strong assurances." For his part,
Fullmetal2887 assures us: "I sincerely apologize and I won't make this mistake again." The keyword is sincerely. In gauging this editor's sincerity, Twitter could be uniquely helpful. Certainly Fullmetal2887 is under no obligation to reveal his Twitter username. But as I mentioned above, the Twitter user in question has not apologized, and is taking exactly the same stance as
Fullmetal2887 himself did on 1 Feb 2020 at my request for page protection of
United States Senate: "I stand by my edit," he declared defiantly, "which was 100% factually correct." Under the circumstances, it would greatly clarify our understanding if Fullmetal2887 would voluntarily for the record deny and disavow the Twitter user whom both
The Independent and
Huff Post have identified as Bruce Halperin
@BruceHalperin, and who is obviously not the least contrite.

In case you're unblocked...
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 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 the 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.
NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 20:01, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
I believe Fullmetal has apologized adequately. Looking at his contributions in other areas, it is surely not the case that he's not here to contribute. The Trump —> Drumpf thing is stupid, but I (and no doubt other admins) have several times excused users who used that stupid extension without realizing what harm it could do on Wikipedia. (I remember especially one guy who changed every occurrence of "Trump" on the entire ANI page to "Drumpf", and had no idea he had done so.) On the other hand, I have taken on board the worries expressed above, e. g. by 331dot, that Fullmetal might act out of frustration again in the future. Therefore, I won't lift the block unconditionally, but am willing to exchange it for a topic ban from post-1932 American politics. That topic ban can be appealed no sooner than six months from now. I also need a personal assurance from Fullmetal that he has removed the "Drumpf" extension, or in some other way has made sure it will never affect Wikipedia again. Fullmetal, please look up WP:TBAN to see what a "topic ban" is, and reply below to say if my conditions are acceptable to you. Bishonen | talk 15:46, 5 February 2020 (UTC).

Hello. I have noticed that you
often edit without using an
edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in
your preferences. Thanks! InvadingInvader (
