Please stop. If you continue to blank out or delete portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did to Satellite, you will be blocked from editing. Mifter (talk) 15:05, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Satellite, you will be blocked from editing. ÐeadΣyeДrrow (Talk | Contribs) 15:06, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

okay okay

in my own defence, this isn't vandalism. i'm trying to move a section of the article to List of orbits where it should be, but the bot won't let me. 82.6.96.66 (talk) 15:07, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for Vandalism. If you wish to make useful contributions, you may do so when the block expires. · AndonicO ^Hail! 15:17, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

lovely.. 82.6.96.66 (talk) 15:45, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

{unblock|Although I appreciate the machine that is the wikipedia anti-vandalism unit, this has been a mistake. I was trying to move the section on Orbit type in the article Satellite to the List of orbits. I had just finished the (rather time consuming) merger into List of orbits, and then went to remove the redundant section in Satellite. I replaced the list with a couple of paragraphs summarizing different orbits types. I was reverted by a bot twice because the section was so large. The bot recommended I make edits in smaller chunks, which I did. This led the anti-vandals to revert these changes and post-notices on the user page. Then I left notices on their talk pages explaining my actions, and one of them replied, recommending that i leave a reason for the edit in the edit summary (which i didn't do before). He was also mistakenly under the impression that i blanked the entire page - which i clearly didn't. So after about ten minutes, i took a deep breath and tried to make the changes again, this time with a clear edit summary, and within moments i was blocked. I hope whoever reads this understands that the changes I was trying to make are completely legitimate. 82.6.96.66 (talk) 15:35, 9 February 2008 (UTC)}

Please stand by as I contact the blocking admin. Sandstein (talk) 16:13, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Very sorry for my misunderstanding; I've unblocked you now. · AndonicO ^Hail! 16:24, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, they do unfortunately; especially when IP address users remove sections from articles, it's hard to differentiate between the good and bad edits. I hope you're not too bothered by my mistake. · AndonicO ^Hail! 16:31, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

thanks. and my talk page was so pretty and clean before this fiasco :( 82.6.96.66 (talk) 16:31, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
