Speedy deletion nomination of Frank Morano[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Frank Morano requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hi RobotUSA, I've deleted this as it doesn't contain a single source that wasn't in the previous version, or indeed any sources at all. So no need to reopen the deletion debate at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frank Morano (2nd nomination). If you want to keep editing here please learn to cite reliable sources, oh and don't attack other editors. Ϣere SpielChequers 10:32, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "RobotUSA", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because it contains the suffix "-bot", which is generally reserved for authorized bot accounts. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may file for a change of username, or you may simply create a new account and use that for editing. Thank you. Taking Out The Trash (talk) 14:07, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Frank Morano[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Frank Morano requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frank Morano (2nd nomination). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

August 2023[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Star Mississippi 15:29, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have twice been told the way to have the article about Morano reviewed, you declined to pursue either and are being blatantly disruptive and attacking editors. In addition, you're an SPA, which isn't disallowed however you're clearly only here to promote Morano, which isn't going to fly. Star Mississippi 15:30, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You abused your power. RobotUSA (talk) 22:31, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to file an unblock request then, but you'll have to make a much more convincing case. Star Mississippi 01:27, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly, you’re making a threat to dissuade me. You shouldn’t harass a newcomer. RobotUSA (talk) 01:35, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You shouldn't disruptively recreate an article and cast aspersions about editors' motivations. Star Mississippi 01:43, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. RobotUSA, you aren't even attempting to appeal, just making personal attacks. This just suggests that the block is a good one. Doug Weller talk 06:44, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To whom would I appeal and why? I did not make any attack and I wasn’t disruptive. Persistence is not a negative. RobotUSA (talk) 07:37, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The instructions appear immediately at the top of this section where you have been responding. Inability to follow those, or how to have the article reviewed is not a good sign. Persistence is a negative when it's against community consensus. If you only want to promote Morano, you likely will not be unblocked. Star Mississippi 11:25, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am Spud on RationalWiki[edit]

I am Spud on RationalWiki. I deleted the Frank Morano article there. I did not delete it here on Wikipedia. I did not block you here on Wikipedia. I cannot unblock you here because I am not an admin on Wikipedia. Simon Peter Hughes (talk) 07:06, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I have replied to you there. RobotUSA (talk) 07:38, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To StarMississippi[edit]

You claim that I didn’t follow the reviewdeletion protocol, but you or someone else blocked me from editing, so I can’t request it. You are being unnecessarily unfriendly. I have no coding experience, yet made a passable page for my first topic, with help from some others. Instead of helping us fix it, you just deleted it and blocked me. That is the rudest way to act. You should acknowledge the error of your sin and I’d be willing to work with you on editing a page, cooperatively. Obviously, you have the experience to do it right. So why not show a little humility and try working with me, instead of against me? RobotUSA (talk) 04:13, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing to do with coding, everything to do with recreating an article deleted through our deletion process at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frank Morano. Doug Weller talk 09:15, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

on August 2nd you were advised what to do. Instead of following that advice, you twice re-created Morano on August 6th and were blocked. That left four days in which you could follow the advice, and you chose not to. Please stop with the "sin" and "bro" rhetoric especially if you wish to be unblocked. Star Mississippi 23:44, 13 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have attempted to do what is right.

I am not a computer expert.

That’s the job of editors, moderators, and people, like Doug Weller, who make a living from “donations.”

God has my back. Want to join Him and help me? Go ahead. RobotUSA (talk) 00:37, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

None of us makes a living editing here. We're all volunteers.

File an unblock request and quit attacking editors, or you will lose access to edit here. Star Mississippi 00:42, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Direct me to the form and I’ll review it. RobotUSA (talk) 03:00, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As previously advised the instructions appear immediately at the top of the "August 2023" section. Theroadislong (talk) 06:53, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock request[edit]

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).

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

Request reason:

because I was instructed to do so and it seems harmless to try RobotUSA (talk) 07:18, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You give no reason to unblock your account. Harmless? You don't have an unlimited number of appeal attempts, and you've just squandered one of them, so maybe not entirely harmless. Cabayi (talk) 07:32, 14 August 2023 (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.

I did give a good reason. Being asked to do something, and doing it, shows that I will respond to polite requests. RobotUSA (talk) 06:55, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you're going to be unblocked you need to explain why you were blocked and what will change if you're able to edit again. You didn't do any of that in your request, which is part of why it was declined. Star Mississippi 13:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
