Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like you to assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not do on Talk:Scientific racism‎. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 09:40, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Insults don't make you sound more convincing, and there are no moderators on Wikipedia. You're an editor, I'm an editor. Sure, I'm also an Administrator, but that gives me no special privileges over content. 09:41, 1 April 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doug Weller (talk • contribs)

Doug Weller (talk · contribs) My apologies for the way I conducted myself in that talk page. I am appealing the block I received for it, but would like to formally apologize for the way I conducted myself there and, if I get the chance, will permanently refrain from conveying myself in such a manner.

Although I must say I do not recall insulting anyone. I admit I gave the impression that people on that page were being obtuse but that seems to be a common opinion when it comes to that talk page. Again I definitely wasn't civil about it though. Test123Bug (talk) 03:44, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Doug Weller (talk · contribs) Seems like my block request was denied and I was called a Nazi after explaining myself (see bottom of talk page). You didn't get any Nazi vibes from me did you? I find the notion bewildering. Perhaps chat with the admin who declined my request for me? Test123Bug (talk) 11:55, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to know about the MOS

but not MOS:NOTE and WP:EDITORIAL. You're not the only one by far, it's too often that I have to delete "It is important to note" from articles. Doug Weller talk 09:46, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Test123Bug (talk) 03:45, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

Disappointed with the block decline by Yamla... Calling me a Nazi now? Really? Hopefully another admin comes and reviews. This seems really wrong. Test123Bug (talk) 11:50, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges.

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 ~~~~}}.

per your next-to-last edit. Acroterion (talk) 11:51, 1 April 2020 (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).

Test123Bug (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Not racist, not pushing a POV

Decline reason:

WP:NONAZI has this pretty well covered. Yamla (talk) 10:15, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Acroterion (talk · contribs) Confused about how this constitutes as racist. Would you like to see the sources that I was talking about? It is clear to me, and others, that the page is biased to be overly politically correct. I will be appealing this certainly but would first like to get some clarification from you on how this constitutes as racist. Also I will be building my case here when someone eventually reviews my block. Here are the sources that relate fixation index (FST) and racial groups of Homo sapiens:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5546212/

Here is another one that compares racial groupings with certain primates:

http://stx.sagepub.com/content/30/2/67.abstract

This one, while not a source directly, states “Numerous human population genetic studies have come to the identical conclusion that genetic differentiation is greatest when defined on a continental basis.”

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC139378/

NOTE: Please, do not misconstrue this as "haha I was right so unblock me". It's more like: Know that my conception of what I said was not born in a vacuum. I'm not just an ignorant racist (not a racist at all) spewing nonsense. It's all based off what I have read.

The guide says that I am responsible for convincing the moderators that:

- that the block was not necessary to prevent damage or disruption (i.e., that the block violates our blocking policy); or: - that the block is no longer necessary because you understand what you are blocked for, you will not do it again, and you will make productive contributions instead; or: - that your conduct (under any account or IP address) is not connected in any way with the block (this can happen if a block is aimed at resolving a separate situation and you are unintentionally blocked as a result because you use the same IP range).

For #1:

The block was not necessary to prevent damage or disruption because I realized that the argument I was making, especially in some of the ways I phrased it, was not conductive to the general discussion. Hence why I deleted it very quickly afterwards. There was certainly a more civil way to go about it. Further, I understand that no matter how many evidence there is sometimes, Wikipedia must be cautious about the content it gives. For example, it is racist to state Subsaharan Africans are genetically closer to bonobos. Therefore, putting that in any article (even if it was true, doesn't matter) is strictly forbidden.

For #2

I will henceforth refrain from participating in controversial articles such as the one I was blocked on. Instead I will stick to things that I have an interest in.

For #3

I have made some very constructive edits. I have a degree in Chemistry and have participated in edits for articles related to it. I also study WW2 as a hobby and participate there (even making several connections for the article on Adolf Hitler, which is an example of one of Wikipedia's perfect articles) etc. So I have much to offer and so far I've been putting out a lot of good edits.

One more thing. I reverted my edit because I understand that Wikipedia wants to err on the side of caution when it comes to political correctness. So that's another reason why this block should not be enforced as I understood the error I was making. Will not happen again.

You compared sub-Saharan African people to bonobos. That's enough from you. I'm removing talkpage access. Acroterion (talk) 12:06, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
