Hi @Dahawk04. I wonder if you would mind changing your signature. The fluorescent green background on white text is genuinely impossible to read and also makes my eyes hurt. A darker green would be more accessible. qcne (talk) 18:42, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing certain namespaces ((Article)) for editing multiple articles with hallucinated references and continuing to deny LLM use when questioned about it.

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 ~~~~}}. The Bushranger _{One ping only} 08:02, 30 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Dahawk04, you're welcome to appeal this block at any point, but I would suggest editing without it for at least a month. You can use edit requests to make edits, or you can create drafts. If you can demonstrate through your actions that you're not using LLMs to create content, I'm sure your unblock request would succeed. -- asilvering (talk) 03:27, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Asilvering I don't understand why I was permanently blocked to begin with. They last comment on the thread before it was closed agreed with my point? I admitted to stopping the use of LLM and was still banned? Dahawk04 (talk) 13:13, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You'd have to ask @The Bushranger, as the blocking admin. I didn't block you (I just shut down the thread because it was obviously just going to spiral into nonsense that you'd feel compelled to keep replying to). But I'll add that you're not "permanently" blocked - I know this sounds a bit like splitting hairs, but it's "indefinitely". What that means is that you're blocked until the blocking admin is confident that the problems won't recur. Some "indefinite" blocks last only a few hours, or even minutes. It's not intended to shut you out forever. Some solid edit requests that demonstrate that you've learned from the thread will sort things out. -- asilvering (talk) 17:21, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

As was said in the thread: As far as "only one link was hallucinated" -- unfortunately, this is the kind of thing where one fake source is one too many. And you remain pblocked because even after admitting to some LLM useage you continued: If you want me to sit here and say the MGB and Fire articles were LLM hallucinations I won’t because they’re not and that’s not stonewalling I’m just not going to lie. when multiple erronious citations were provided for Mass General Brigham. If they weren't hallucinated then they were deliberately and manually input erroniously which is possibly even worse. Given your continued arguments against evidence - and, IMHO, your 'admission' to LLM use 'which I stopped using' comes across as 'saying what I believe is wanted to be heard', or more frankly 'I'm sorry I got caught' - it is clear to me at least that allowing you to contribute to the encyclopedia is an unacceptable risk. If you can convince another admin otherwise, then by all means you're free to attempt. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 21:33, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for totally screwing up and ignoring my edit request.

You said you added Ahmed Ghandour to the list of Israeli assassinations article but you never did.

Wikipedia is run by volunteers—no one owes you anything. I suggest you create an account and contribute yourself instead of obsessing over an mis-edit from two months ago. Celjski Grad (talk) 13:04, 30 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
