Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to IntelliStar, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Please stop adding the Products section to the article. If you continue to do so, I will report you for edit-warring. Thank you. --ZLMedia 20:36, 14 April 2015 (UTC)

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to IntelliStar. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. --ZLMedia 00:40, 23 April 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges, as you did at IntelliStar. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Spike Wilbury (talk) 16:29, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

I have made your block indefinite only because you have thus far not shown any understanding that Wikipedia is a collaborative workspace where you must explain and discuss your edits when engaged by other editors. Continuing to add material to IntelliStar, without any sign that you understand why it's problematic or that other editors object, is an example of disruptive editing. Any admin may unblock you once you show some willingness to explain and discuss your edits. --Spike Wilbury (talk) 16:32, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Request reason:

I understand the reason for my block. I'll admit that I did not have the amount of competence needed to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia and resorted to edit warring instead of talking with others. I promise that I will not repeat this behavior again, and I will discuss with other users instead of engaging in constant reversions. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 15:02, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Accept reason:

After eight years, I will give you another chance. 331dot (talk) 21:08, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
