This is the Chat section. Do not Send in anything that doesn't have anything to do with questions, Wikipedia, or just chatting. I accept news, feedback, and what has been going on. Do not send in any reports. All messages are allowed in the first talk section. Do not write about gaming or any other things. No emojis or kaomojis. Be respectful and treat others how you want to be treated. Be fair. 😜

User talk:Tlhoaele

Hello Factors guy. Please refrain from placing block notices as you did at User talk:Tlhoaele since you are not currently an administrator. Block templates should only be placed by administrators. It is also worth noting that administrators are volunteers and not "staff" as you claimed in your messages on that talk page. That user would also be unable to complete WP:TWA per your suggestion as they are currently blocked. I appreciate that you wish to help, but per IRC and here, you don't really understand how to help newcomers yet and are still learning yourself. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 05:00, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't quit fully understand. I shouldn't have done something before thinking. I just thought it was, well, interesting and decided to join in. I'm really sorry. Factors guy (talk) 05:06, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest starting with typo fixes and other small WikiGnome type edits while you gain experience with Wikipedia and how the site works. I do recognize that it is quite the learning curve and was there myself in 2017. My offer to assist if you have any questions is genuine.

--TheSandDoctor ^Talk 05:13, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the advise! I'm sorry though, but thank anyway. I'll try not to do it again. (oﾟvﾟ)ノ Factors guy (talk) 06:50, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome! Two things though....please don't bother users who are blocked and all new talk page messages go at the bottom of talk pages. Blocked users cannot edit anywhere but their talk page, so your invitations to WP:TWA are rather pointless unless they are eventually unblocked. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 13:22, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thanks. I won't do anything like this again! o(*^▽^*)┛ Factors guy (talk) 23:11, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

One question though, but how do you become administrator?

Calming down is essential!

Following on from another post which I see you have just deleted, what on earth are you up to?

I have just declined your second request in two days to be made a TeaHouse Host, when you've not yet made a single edit to a mainspace article. You then copy/pasted in a whole chunk of User:Fox's talk page into your own userpage. Why? (Please remove it all - it's not OK to have it there)

Do I need to get a CheckUser to investigate whether you are a WP:SOCKPUPPET pretending to be incompetent? Maybe you are blocked editor, Tlhoaele? Or are you just simply messing around? Your edit pattern is suggesting to me that you already know your way around some of the backwaters of Wikipedia. (example). Either way, this is a serious project to build an encyclopaedia, and you look set to be a drain on our limited volunteer resources unless you calm down and decide to edit sensibly . Please ask at the Teahouse if you need help, but don't try to 'run before you can walk' or you may soon find yourself being blocked if your editing gets disruptive. And to answer this latest question - forget it for now, to be an administrator you'll need quite a few thousand good quality edits and a deep understanding of how things work here. Neither are things you have right now. Best wishes, and do try your best to avoid being blocked, per WP:NOTHERE.

I shall be watching.

Sorry. And, no. I don't own 2 accounts. Factors guy (talk) 01:57, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please also don't edit other people's comments (like this). It's not something that's generally looked upon favourably here. Please - just edit some articles and give the non-essential stuff a rest. :) — 🦊 02:06, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Small issue with your signature

I see you're trying to update your signature. That's totally fine, but there's one more thing you need to add on there. Put </small> at the end of it (or at the end of whatever you wanted to make small). Otherwise it causes a slight formatting nightmare for everyone else. Thanks. Ian.thomson (talk) 07:50, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you need to link to your own user name, which has a small "g" on "guy". Case is significant in Wikipedia page names. --David Biddulph (talk) 07:58, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ok! Thanks for the advise! Factors guy (talk) 23:27, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:55, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

YOU BLOCKED MY ACCOUNT FOR NO REASON!!!!! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna report you!!!!!!!!!! Factors guy (talk) 03:03, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:NOTHERE criterion "Editing only in user space" and others. TonyBallioni, mind revoking TPA? I don't see anything constructive happening here following that response. Ed6767 talk! 03:26, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
