{unblock|reason=Ok, look, I'm sorry for putting vanity on the front page. I will try for more spelling, and what admin feedback? I'm confused. Nonetheless, this is a misunderstanding. Please unblock me. I will try harder next time(though a warning would be nice). Thank you. (Maybe a brief restriction on creating UnNews articles, or putting them on Template:RecentUnNews, set to expire when my strict sanctions expire at 23:00 2/28/2021.) I acknowledge it was slightly wrong, but a reduction to 12 hours should be enough. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 16:59, 19 February 2021 (UTC)(updated 17:29, 19 February 2021 (UTC))}

Feedback meaning I said "Don't put full stops in headlines" after which you put a full stop in a headline and added a second sentence to it. It's not hard to contribute to Uncyclopedia, and in my experience, people who constantly flout the rules or ask to be warned or restricted are just looking for attention. It's not a misunderstanding, I said don't do something, you did the opposite. Leverage (talk) 17:16, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
But I never saw that. You expect me to scan contribs/edit summaries, I don't always do that. What I mean is; I shoul have been notified, on my talk page, about the threat of consequences.
Also, I strongly disagree with Uncyclopedia is easy to contribute to. It really isn't. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 17:23, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
And why exactly does adding a "full stop to a headline" count as a blockable offense? JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 17:24, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
IMO, Gale5050 should have been warned on their talk page first. Also, blocking someone for a week due to formatting is too harsh. ~ HipponiasCUN - Talk - Contribs - Articles  17:25, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Yeah, maybe a day or two is reasonable, but U u u wa wa did something worse then me, yet it was 2 days. Since I did do something wrong, but barely I will slighly ammend my unblock. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 17:29, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
I don't think it's just the formatting. I think it was more about adding way too many crappy articles to the "In the news" section of the Main Page and Gale5050's attitude of going around and telling everyone else what to do but never listening to others. Gale5050, I'm starting to doubt your honesty again. You have chastised me more than once for my edit summaries, now you're saying that you don't even pay attention to them? I find that hard to believe. MrX blow me Emoji-drool.gif 17:30, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
I should clarify-not his. I barely even knew him before, and not that he was an admin. I scan a few people's contributions. He is not one of them. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 17:31, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
This situation is the wiki equivalent of a suspected mass murderer getting arrested for speeding, albeit less exaggerated. JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 17:33, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
I think I should clarify. Again. This block seems overly punative, anything really not within the last 2 weeks should be left in the past, and a week block for formatting/extremely minor vanity is overly harsh. There seems to be a lot of discussion, and I will ping Cassie, for his input. Remember a block was what he was trying to avoid so Leverage should be made aware. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 17:35, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Seconded. Adding short articles to ITN is not particularly disruptive, nor is violating a supposedly existent style guideline. JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 17:37, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
UN:BITE is probably being violated. JJP, if Kev could be aware that would be great, as his comments would be welcomed. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 17:41, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
I feel like 1 week is excessive for a first violation, but a warning is too soft. I'll reduce the block to 24 hours as per Gale5050 sanctions, which specify that length for a first offense. Additionally, I'll restrict Gale5050's ability to create UnNews pages until exactly 168 hours after any block that occurs between now and the restrictions being removed (basically, survive a week without being blocked again).  Cassandra  (talk) 05:54pm  February 19, 2021

For reference, it was actually reduced to 22 hours and 30 minutes, given how an hour and a half was previously served. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 18:08, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Yup.  Cassandra  (talk) 06:28pm  February 19, 2021
Kev, I sent you an email. Please reply. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 18:30, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Re'd via seperate email.  Cassandra  (talk) 06:35pm  February 19, 2021
He said it technically doesn't count as a sanction block, because Leverage didn't mention it, but since it is on the page it may be thrice the length of the first time violation. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 18:50, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
24 hour block is entirely reasonable. ShabiDOO 19:52, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Yes, unfortionately it also counts in the sanctions. Kev said he might forgive it just this once because Leverage didn't explicitly mention it . Also thanks for finally correctly formatting. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 20:54, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Gale it doesn't help your case to be snarky like that. The formatting of a news article headline is a LOT more important than the indentations on a talk page. ShabiDOO 23:30, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
It wasn't about the formatting per se, moreso vanity/spelling issues. Also, it was breaching UN:BITE. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 23:45, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Gale you aren't a noob anymore. ShabiDOO 23:54, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Yes. But keep in mind though I've only been editing for 4 months, and I was basically gone for 2.5-3 of them. So, really, I forgot a lot since 12/26. Also, UN:BITE does not just apply to noobs, and I will attempt more examples to find. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 23:59, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Gale5050, I'm not sure your math is accurate. You first started editing here in early August of 2020 (over 6 months ago) and almost immediately started trying to change things by removing cussing from Uncyclopedia:Check user. I don't know why you think UN:BITE would apply to a non-noob, but it certainly doesn't apply to you. We've all been very patient and encouraging with you, yet you continue to try and act like everyone's boss and tell people they've made mistakes when they haven't. Then when we point out your mistakes, you refuse to listen and insist that you're always right, sometimes even lying about things that happened. Please try to listen when others are trying to help you. MrX blow me Emoji-drool.gif 00:14, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
Yes, because it applies to you. I guess BITE isn't the right keyword, but AGF, even though it links to WP, certaintly applies here and giving a block over typos/extremely minor vanity is pretty harsh, though a Symbol possible vote.svg I guess. sanction evasion does make a block notworthy. Nonetheless, discussion closed as it is getting way off topic and cluttering my inbox. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 00:23, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Gale5050, closing discussions that are active and on-topic (we’re talking about the multiple factors that lead to your block) is not the type of behavior that will lead to your sanctions being lifted. This is a collaborative project, and you’re making it very difficult to work and communicate with you. The vanity was not minor at all, there have been times recently when more than half of the “In the news” articles were yours, and I don’t think any of them should have been on the Main Page. MrX blow me Emoji-drool.gif 00:51, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

The removal of Winter Storm Uri was bad, it killed 49 people, and over a period. Maybe more of the local stuff yes, and I didn't post UnNews:Error with Tropical Storm Dujuan (Auring)'s wind speed or UnNews:1961 reassessment comes, massive changes(though that was a late delivery). The S Atlantic storms was pretty important. And it certaintly didn't need to include UnNews:Just another dead doper and a dirtbag dies. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 00:55, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
Gale, a block is rarely for only the reasons given but often follows a large number of small annoyances or grievances that add up until an admin finally gives a block (without mentioning all the other bothersome events). Conceding the points made, taking the block graciously and keeping in mind what people said in the future (as opposed to this defensive and dismissive posture) will result in this all being quickly forgotten and your sanctions being dropped sooner rather than later. ShabiDOO 01:04, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
I haven't seen that at all on my WP experiences. Well, maybe once or twice. It seems kinda punative, to boil everything in for a block. Sure, warnings of course, but boiling everything in February is harsh. Still it kinda makes sense. Also leaving a note here, put the number machine list on CTAM before it locks. If someone can do that that would be great. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 01:36, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

WHAT[edit source]

Why is there a block fight happening? User:Pugsleyfan69420 00:03, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

It's kinda confusing. Basically, ever since 9/28, but with the most recent update at 1/25, I had sanctions. I get blocked 24 hours at a first violation. Now, I was apparently "treating the Main Page as a sandbox" and making pointless UnNews articles, so Leverage blocked me. A lot of people thought it was harsh, but due to the sanctions, it was reduced, not lifted. Consensus has been reached. I think a lot of people got upset with the typos. You can see the initial reasoning here, and the current reasoning upon editing my talkpage. I hope this helps, Pugsleyfan69420! --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 00:08, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
As per the above, yeah. And also, uhhh, I just updated your sanctions yesterday, so... they were last updated on 2/19.  Cassandra  (talk) 12:46am  February 20, 2021
Today in EST! --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 00:50, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
It's tough to adjust for timezones! If only the whole world operated on UTC...  Cassandra  (talk) 12:58am  February 20, 2021
Yes but then there would be problems especially in Fiji and that area. Like in NY-the sun would set anytime between 9:20 pm and 12:20 am and would rise anytime between 9:20 am and 12:20 pm. It would be a problem. --Gale5050 complain about me! And see my Wikipedia contributions! 00:59, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
