New account

Hi is there any reason you've created a new account rather than continue using user:Srednuas Lenoroc? Nthep (talk) 20:04, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Can I suggest that you answer this question, Srednaus Lenoroc, as it will help to clear up Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Lrednuas Senoroc, and then you can go back to focusing on editing rather than having to answer questions there. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:46, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Most of the unpleasantness would be avoided if you answered my original question. If you previously edited as Srednuas Lenoroc then say so and it would be very helpful if you would say why, if that is the case. If you have used two accounts there is nothing wrong in that but explaining when asked avoid people thinking the worst of you and mixing you up with an impersonator.

Blank edit requests

Hi there, were you trying to achieve something specific here with the three blank edit requests you submitted? I'm happy to help if there's something you need help with. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:03, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

That is strange that they did not go through. That has never happened before but I did notice that things were not going smoothly and maybe my computer was disconnecting during the process. It probably was for the misspelling of January. But as each was unique I will not readily remember but next year when I go through my process they will come up. If they have not been seen during editing by now they will not be so readily crucial.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 08:06, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

February 2017

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

• User contributions
• Recent changes
• Watchlists
• Revision differences
• IRC channels
• Related changes
• New pages list
• Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! McGeddon (talk) 14:02, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

Operating a BOT

Based on your recent editing history, I suspect that you are using some type of automated tool to either perform or assist your editing. Please read WP:Bot policy and understand that operating a non-approved bot is not allowed. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 17:26, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

I am using nothing special except the search process.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 17:32, 14 February 2017 (UTC)

Just wanted to reiterate that whatever it is that you have accused me of usuing I am afraid I really am incapable of knowing. I refer to my "computer" as a machine because that is what it is to me. If it does not function under what little I do know about it then I am useless as to developing a more advance use of technology. So this "bot" I cannot help you solve your concern.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 20:03, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Friends

Meters and Meters too -- You want something to occur that is fundamentally impossible to do--erase from the record. Even when you delete it on the talk page the text that was deleted remains so whatever reason that compels you to do what you do is unfortunately useless. I have absolutely no control over that simple state of life. You may be annoyed by something but that is your person that has to somehow come to terms with say someone who is annoyed when on the street he hears someone whistle to themselves. It really is not a constitutional offense and the way that it was approached makes friendly chit chat about resolving it some other way all the less possible when you inconvenience others.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 20:00, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Stay off my page and don't ping me again. WP:DON'T FEED THE TROLLS. Meters (talk) 20:38, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Do I know you Meters and Meters too ?Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 20:40, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

If you keep pinging users to be obnoxious, I will interrupt your editing privileges. Stop trolling other users. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:42, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

What is pinging?Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 20:43, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

See WP:PING. When you link to another user's user page, it typically generates a notification for that user. Since it's clear that the user doesn't need or want to be notified, your unnecessary linking to their user pages is unnecessarily generating unnecessary notifications or "pings". Cyphoidbomb (talk) 20:46, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

That is not my fault but the actions of WP system.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 20:47, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

If you keep doing it for no reason, then it is your fault that they would be needlessly pinged. Please note that competence is required at Wikipedia. If you demonstrate a regular inability to understand basic ideas, like that X action causes Y outcome and Y outcome is unpleasant, irritating or unwelcome, you're going to very quickly wind up excluded from editing. I note that the numerous times other editors have contacted you here and at Srednuas Lenoroc you have danced around various issues using circuitous and confusing responses, which makes it very difficult to communicate with you. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:16, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Oh, exclusided. What a prize!Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 22:10, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

It must be a conspiracy?Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 22:54, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

AN/I discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Cordless Larry (talk) 00:11, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi Srednaus Lenoroc (or whoever you are). I've had a cursory look at your contributions, and they seem fine to me. I see two possible solutions here.

• simply ask for a change of username to something quite different to the problematic username
• admit you are — Preceding unsigned comment added by 09:54, 17 February 2017‎ (talk • contribs) Shirt58 (UTC)

That has already been explained and discounted as infiltration by the sock puppet. What else is to be done with a system that is self promoting.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk)—Preceding undated comment added 09:55, 17 February 2017‎

Lrednuas Senoroc or whatever, point out that your contributions under the new username have been OK, and ask for an unblock of your first account

What do you think about this?--Shirt58 (talk) 10:31, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

WP:shrugs shoulders, walks away

--Shirt58 (talk) 10:31, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

(I've refactored this for clarity; Srednaus's "has already been explained" was in immediate response to an unfinished message from Shirt58, which Shirt58 came back and retroactively added to half an hour later. It was not to the suggestion they admit to being Lrednuas Senoroc.) --McGeddon (talk) 11:13, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

That is a perfect example of the problem with WP. Now I imagine I am being disruptive and should be sanctioned for the faults of WP?Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 10:33, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Changing the meanings of sentences

Regarding this edit, "closing up a window" is very different from "closing a window". Windows being "closed up to avoid paying tax" is a reference to the window tax, where houseowners would brick up windows to lower the amount of tax due on their property; it does not refer to simply closing an open window. --McGeddon (talk) 12:04, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Is this in a British article? Then It should be explained.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 12:05, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

I will add that I think you might be striving a bit beyond your fluency level with your "grammar" edits changing "closed up" to "forwarded". Please stop making mass changes like that; they are not improvements. Eric ^talk 13:11, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

They are when they are military.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 13:14, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

"Forwarded"

If you don't like "closed up" we can discuss it but forward isn't a verb; what if an illiterate English Lit grad or an American sees it? Keith-264 (talk) 13:42, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Now, now. Be polite. Disparaging remarks are not part of the WP mentality! Troops move forward, fallback or flank and just because a word or term may not be "logical" to some it is certainly accept in a profession. I cannot help that and WP is not a place for innovation as has been point out by some authorities here.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 13:57, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Unless this is a piece of military terminology I'm unfamiliar with, your sentence fragments such as "the French consolidated Cléry and forwarded to the German third position" are ungrammatical. "Forward" is not an intransitive verb; the French can "move forward to the German third position" or they can "be forwarded to" it, but they cannot "forward to" it. --McGeddon (talk) 13:59, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Have you ever spoken with military people? They would seem the source.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 14:05, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Blocked

I have blocked you from editing Wikipedia for disruptive editing. If you would like to appeal against the block, you can place {{unblock|your reason}} on this page, and your unblock request will be reviewed. Your unblock request should address the reasons why you were blocked, and in particular answer the question - which you have persistently evaded - as to whether you have edited Wikipedia using the name Srednuas Lenoroc (talk · contribs) in addition to this account. WJBscribe (talk) 14:43, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

I was asked a question then never given any time to reply. Did the person who blocked bother to read the time stamps? That sound like another case of foolishness and shark tank mentslity. Again I do not expect for this situation to end happily because WP has a problem with self-critique being perceived as an affront to its authority.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 14:46, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

You were first asked six days ago. Cordless Larry (talk) 14:47, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

In the mean time I explained what was the situation and discounted. Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 14:48, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

And then before I could answer the last question I was blocked. That is Fair?Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 14:50, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

So now WP has a situation where someone jumped the gun and has embarrassed WPSrednaus Lenoroc (talk) 14:51, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Well, is WP going to admit their mistake?Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 14:53, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

"Wikipedia" is not going to admit anything - it's a website, not a person. We are all individual volunteer editors, who you have failed to engage with collaboratively as is required for a project such as this. Cordless Larry (talk) 14:55, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

And you can still answer the question here on your talk page. Cordless Larry (talk) 14:56, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

(edit conflict)There's no review until YOU start providing straight answers to straight questions which start with:

1. Did you previously use the account Srednuas Lenoroc between May 2015 and June 2016?
2. If so, why did you stop using that account and create this new account?

Nthep (talk) 14:58, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Please stop with your replies iuntil I answrr. I am putting in answers and losing them because new print comes up.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 15:01, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Regardless what you think WP has made a mistake. You don't ask a question then cut them before they have had time to answer. Not only that you do not discount a person's explanation without due diligence then create additional problems for those involved. We would bot be at this situation if whoever decided my answer was not truthful if they had done their work. Please WP would you do you work before you accuse people.

I had a computer that was programmed to go directly to my account without having to type everything. That computer broke. It had been some time since I had manually log in so was unble to recover. I put in a name that took. End of story. It does ot take an Einstein to understand that. And again, I do not expect for WP to revert this because you people in authority feel threatened. And to revert would clearly show that there was a mistake done.Srednaus Lenoroc (talk) 15:05, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
