Wnt, I want to apologize, it seems you ran afoul of one of our automated abuse filters and were banned because of it. I've removed that ban now. We've had some problems with vandalism so we've put in place an abuse filter that blocks new accounts (younger than a certain age) if an article, talk page, or user page they edit contains the term "pedophile" in its new version. The theory was that users that new to the wiki are unlikely to have anything positive to contribute to the legitimate discussion of pedophiles in the community (like Draven) and were likely to be using the word for trolling and shock value, as previous troll [[Dan (troll)]] did. In this case that assumption seems to have been in error. I believe I'll modify the filter now so that it only flags the edit on that particular word rather than automatically banning.
I should note, however, that I'm going to have to delete your article [[Concept:Multiple temporal dimensions]]. I'm going to edit some of the wiki policy pages to clarify what might not have been apparent (you're the second user to make this mistake) but AnOtherWiki is really not a place for personal essays or theories about otherkin. [[AnOtherWiki:About#AnOtherWiki_is_not_a_website_or_blog_provider|AnOtherWiki is not a website provider or blog provider]]. What we're going for is really a blend of encyclopedic content and journalism documenting our community. If "Multiple temporal dimensions" was a concept or terminology embraced by a large number of otherkin, you could report on that (preferably with references/links) but developing and promoting the idea here is really beyond the scope of the wiki. I hope that won't dissuade you from continuing to participate here.

== Comment ==
(I'm putting this under a new heading in case the content of the preceding sets off the filter)
It looks like my edit was lost, so I will say only very briefly (hoping not to set anything else off) that I found out about the existence of your Wiki and this curious set of ideas behind it after stumbling across mention of the above-mentioned individual at [https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Encyclopedia_Dramatica:Needed/Proposed]. You might encounter some other folks with a smidge of trollen blood stumbling in from this source. You might also bemuse yourself reading [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Administrators%27_noticeboard/User_problems/Geni%27s_allegations_against_Beta_M] for a similar case with similar arguments. Wikis follow parallel connectives (my term for what I think you call Flows) and they tend to undergo remarkably parallel development...
I'm surprised to see you restricting content to a consensus. Where does this consensus come from, who defines it? I'd never have guessed you would have developed an "orthodoxy", but unfortunately, it leaves me incompetent to do much here. Between this restriction, the very difficult "capchas", and getting deleted on the second edit and autobanned on the third, I'm afraid my aspirations here are sinking fast. ~~~~' |
