suggestion

Lauren, your comments on the checkuser page will not affect the outcome of the request. If you are not the same person as the other users, that would be shown if/when the check is done. The request might even be declined if the reviewer feels that there is not enough evidence to do a check.

You would do much better to concentrate on doing constructive edits so that no one would have reason to make any complaints. You could start by just ignoring any suspicions or accusations, including the checkuser request. You have been taking up quite a bit of people's time, which is usually not a good thing. People are trying to be patient with you, but that could stop at any time. You might not know that we have a one-strike rule: a user who is indeffed or banned on another project can be indeffed here after only one infraction, and without warning. Please don't give us a reason to do that. --Auntof6 (talk) 17:15, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Auntof6: I hope a CU declines it and say's not related. I was worried about that CU request because it's like I felt like I was going to be blocked for socking or something. And I don't like when other user mentions my name on other user talk pages. I know people are being patient with me. Sometimes I get fed up with IPs making bad edit summaries and I try to tell them to get off so they don't harass me and before those IPs were harassing me, I reported them to WP:VIP for vandalism after a final warning, then I went back to that page to add that they were harassing me. I do anti vandalism edits which is considered constructive edits and I warn these vandals on their talk page. I was also requesting for the range to be blocked as well so they don't make dumb edit summaries. I didn't really know there was a one strike rule until you just told me. Thanks for helping and telling me that because I don't even want to be indeffed here too. Trust me! About that indef block on English Wikipedia I am actually doing the "Standard offer" there. Standard offer is like where you do the following:

wait for 6 months without socking or evading your block
Promising to avoid what lead to the block (like for example, I was being accused of sockpuppetry though I am not a sock and I will wait for 6 months until December to avoid that)
Don't create any extraordinary reasons to return

I am supposed to appeal the block on English Wikipedia using their Unblock Ticket Request System, which is another way to appeal a block there and if you cant edit talk page while blocked, sometimes in December or the first day of 2017, which is January 1st. I'm I allowed to continue doing vandalism work just as long as I don't make harassing edit summaries. What can I do if a IP on their talkpage mentions in a edit summary like "ISIS!!!!!" or "NO!!!!! I WILL SEND YOU TO SAUDI ARABIA AND CHANGE YOUR VOICE TO ARABIC!!!!!" once I revert their edit and they revert mine mentioning those (I was reminding them something before they did that)? By the way, I actually reported that IP before that happened. Please reply Auntof6. --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 17:39, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bridges

Hi, Lauren. You're doing some good work with bridge categories and articles. Would you please look at San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge? There's a syntax error in the first reference, and the article title needs to be bolded in the first sentence. Thanks! --Auntof6 (talk) 02:28, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done look at the article now and come back and tell me what you think. --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 02:32, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

moving other users' pages

In a word: don't. Those pages belong to the other user, even if they are banned, indeffed, or just not around any more. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:31, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I was trying to move one of them to a article though. --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 02:31, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't matter: the page doesn't belong to you. If you want to use the content, just copy and paste it. You've caused some cleanup work because the page now has to be restored. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I have moved it back. You can copy and paste it back to the live article if you want. Just be sure to simplify it: it wasn't simplified enough.

Try looking at it this way: you are currently indeffed on enwiki, but you hope to be reinstated there. Would it be right for someone to take over your user pages there (if you had any) just because you are currently indeffed? --Auntof6 (talk) 02:50, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I recreated and copied it all into the article you deleted. --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 03:04, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Golden State Warriors

Hi, Lauren. I believe the Warriors play in Oakland, not San Francisco. Besides that, you don't need categories for both Sports in a city and the city itself, because the "sports in city" category would already be under the city. Please fix these. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 03:01, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done. --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 03:04, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Except that 2015-16 Golden State Warriors season doesn't need both "Sports in Oakland, California" and "Oakland, California". Also, there should be some category there to indicate basketball. --Auntof6 (talk) 03:10, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done also created a new category "Category:Events in the San Francisco Bay Area". I am thinking about creating Super Bowl 50 tomorrow if I can since that took place in the Bay Area. Do you think I am starting to go from being disruptive to being constructive? I can feel it now. Thanks for reviving my behavior here! --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 03:16, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think you're doing better, yes, although it wouldn't hurt to slow down. You do need to learn more about how things are done here, though, especially in the area of categories. For one thing, we don't create categories unless there are already at least three things to put into them. Category:National Basketball Association seasons still has only one entry. Are you planning to add more? If not, the one entry in it should be recategorized and the category deleted until there are three or more things. Another thing is with 2015-16 Golden State Warriors season: a team's season is not an event, so it wouldn't go under events. It also needs one or more categories to put into the sports years (2015 in sports and 2016 in sports). --Auntof6 (talk) 03:23, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know about if I will create other ones. If I do create some, I might create 1995-96 Chicago Bulls season and 2014-15 Los Angeles Clippers season but I don't think I will create sports seasons unless they are in the San Francisco Bay Area. I would personally put 2015-16 Warriors under events though sorry to say. Like I said, tomorrow I might create Super Bowl 50 since its in California. I actually like contributing and creating articles related to the San Francisco Bay Area since I live near there. Regards, --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 03:30, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, then I'm going to delete that category for now. It can be recreated when there are enough entries for it.

A season is not an event. A season includes not only games, but trades and other things. Individual games are events, but not the seasons themselves. You can see that on enwiki. --Auntof6 (talk) 03:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I will see you tomorrow Auntof6. Tommorow I will continue to work on San Francisco Bay Area articles. Plus I have a list of articles on my userpage I am thinking about creating so. Regards, --LaurenCox600 (chat me!) 03:50, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No one undo this, please! I'm trying to be nice! I'm just a naïve teenager! What do you want from me that I have!? Please reply to this and do NOT undo it! Lauren, I really am sorry! As for your friend, I have no clue! Please! Signed, Austin 2601:582:4406:7060:7DCF:2A8A:4708:7A67 (talk) 05:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To Lauren

Dear Lauren,

I am sorry to here your account being blocked here without talkpage access and being locked globally. I can feel your pain you had Lauren. Overall Lauren, you were a great editor here. I totally love you and don't worry sweetheart. You mean so much to me. You did not deserve that treatment IPs have given you in edit summaries and I promise you you are a great editor. I understand your block here for abusing multiple accounts but here's the thing Lauren, I know you got accused of creating multiple accounts but here's the thing, you did not sock here and you did not do anything to get blocked. I will miss you editing here but hey we can still talk in school though since we go to the same school. I know you hate the Warriors and that's fine Lauren. I won't hurt you if you told me that because we are best friends. If the Warriors play the Thunder again, me and you should go to Oracle Arena together. It will be a fun 2016-17 season for my team. Lauren, I will be happy to request your account to be unblocked here, English Wikipedia, and to be unlocked on meta as well. You didn't deserve it. You didn't deserve the harrasment from IPs with these edit summaries. You didn't deserve to have other vandals create harrasing pages about you. I appreciated you reverting vandalism and you deserve better. You are special, kind, and awesome and I'm happy to be your best friend.

Love,

(Ashley) ❤️😀 🍩

I hope my letter brightens your day Lauren. --SanJoseGirl6 ^{(Talk to Ashley!)} 05:26, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
