You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  GirthSummit (blether) 15:28, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi - I've blocked this account to stop the disruption at a couple of articles. I've been trying to make sense of your edit summaries - you say that you are using sources that you cannot cite? That isn't verifiable - we only use sources that the reader can check for themselves, so that isn't going to fly. In one of your edit summaries, you say that the picture being used is a copyright violation - I'll be happy to look into that, if you are right the answer is to delete the picture entirely, not remove it from an article. Can you be specific about the picture? GirthSummit (blether) 15:31, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi again - I've looked a bit deeper, and I think the picture you expressed concerns about is the one in the infobox of Zendaya? That picture was submitted by Glenn Francis of Pacific Pro Digital. Glenn, who edits under the username Toglenn, is a professional photographer who regularly takes photographs of celebrities (amongst other subjects) and makes them available for use on WMF projects by uploading them to commons. Glenn and I have had our differences in the past about which pages his work is used on, but he is a prolific contributor and I see no reason to suspect that the photograph in question is a copyright violation. Do you have any evidence to back up your assertion, or indeed those other assertions that other editors are acting out of a conflict of interest?

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Zendaya. Resumed from before Geraldo Perez (talk) 22:28, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
