Blocked

Mackay 86, I've indefinitely blocked you for disruptive editing. To be honest, I'm not entirely convinced you even realise you're being disruptive - I think you believe you're helping out. Unfortunately you're causing far more problems than you're solving. Another admin, LessHeard vanU (talk), has previously had to speak to you your editing. You've been discussed at WP:ANI. Editors and admins have raised concerns with you about your - frankly - bizarre image work. More recently you've had to be warned by DrKiernan and Begoon about changes to templates.

That's the final straw, I'm afraid. Templates have huge potential to be disruptive - you make one bad change to the wrong template and it's highly visible throughout the project.

So I've blocked you. The block is indefinite, but I'd hope it's in no way forever. If I'm right about you, and I hope I am, you're a keen, enthusiastic editor. I'd hope that you'd think about this block, why it happened, and learn from it. I'd hope that you would request an {{unblock}} at some point in the future, when you feel you're able to convince a reviewing admin that you understand why you were blocked, and that you understand how you caused problems, and that you know how to avoid them in future.
