This kind of not WP:IDHT behavior is part and parcel of why the community was in favor of blocking to begin with. For the record you are not blocked from using your talk page, you just are not permitted to appeal for a year. May I suggest you just accept that and move on?

What about my User page?

I find it hard to believe that a user can be blocked just becuase of some disruptive editing. It is like throwing me in jail for a year just because I spoke out and used a few what say are unreliable sources.

You aren't locked up, you are kicked out. The community has spoken, at length, about the issues with your edits and concluded it would be better off if you were not able to edit. This wan't my idea, I merely acted in an administrative capacity to implement the obvious consensus reflected in the ANI discussion, so I'm not going to argue the points with you but I would again suggest that the sooner you accept that you are kicked out for a year, the easier it will be to get unblocked when you are permitted to appeal.

@Just Step Sideways: Is there a way I can update my user page? It has some old data that needs to be updated. It seems that even though someone is site blocked, it should not prevent them from updating their own personal user page, right?

You can’t. Probably on a technical basis though I’m not sure. In any case having a userpage is a luxury, not a right, and “some old data needs to be updated” is an extremely trivial issue even in that context. I can, however, make the edit for you if it’s reasonably simple.

Greghenderson2006, I'm going to take the risk of causing you further hurt by backing up the admin here. You had ample opportunity at AN/I to argue your case. While "anyone can edit" is an admirable general principle, it doesn't mean anyone has a right to do anything they want to on the site. Articles do get deleted (including some that were accepted at AfC), and admins do block people from editing in order to protect the encyclopedia. It is after all a privately owned website. Your idea of notability is, I'm sorry to say, at variance with English Wikipedia's; I'm sorry to say that even though I have an inclusionist userbox on my user page and have worked hard to save a number of articles, what I've seen of your recent articles that you listed at AN/I demonstrated to me that you set the bar for notability way too low. (I also found the articles not very well written, but that's a common reaction of mine. I did what I could to improve Santa Clara Verein, which attracted my attention because of my interest in the turner movement and because the article gave the impression in places, including the intro, that the building still existed.) You wrote that you have your own website and have published books. I sincerely suggest you focus on the website and on writing more books. Writing for a specifically interested readership is in many ways more rewarding than Wikipedia, especially if your interest is in documenting all the major buildings of smaller towns and cities, and people of only local notability. Wikipedia notability just doesn't stretch that far, I'm afraid.

Thank you for comments. I wrote the article Santa Clara Verein because it was on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. A safer bet than some of my many Carmel-by-the-Sea, California articles. The lessons I've learned is don't speak out too much, don't write about your local area of interest, and don't write about family members. Yes, I set the Notability bar lower because I think certain people and places need recognition, e.g. photographer Draft:Lewis Josselyn or Draft:Casa del Oro. I will continue my writing efforts on Simple Wikipedia and of course, my books, and website Hendersonfamilytree.com. Thanks again for your help with Santa Clara Verein!

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SafariScribe was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Likely may meet WP:NARTIST, however, we need secondary sources as primary ones doesn't justify notability

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Anton C. Heidrick and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Your recent article submission has been rejected and cannot be resubmitted. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Netherzone was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Non-notable subject. Sourced to hyper-local or questionable sources lacking in-depth content about her specifically. Created by an indeffed editor (who interestingly and problematically commented as though they were a reviewer.)
