Now it says removing content from pages regarding the coding on pages like The Calm, and for your edits on the layout-guide, which are the most clear offenses you've done.

Once again, the edit to "The Calm" page was an accident. I didn't realise that the code was needed because it's not in the layout guide (ergo, I assumed, not standard layout). Regarding the edits made to the guide itself, I'm not sure why changing [citation needed] to is a problem, considering the template adds the exact same notice in-text, and also categorises the page so people can see which pages need citations.

And there is no standard formatting guide in the world that recognises episode titles in italics. Ever. As said, Skyzy seemed pretty adamant about the APA, and thus, I changed it to the APA standard.

And you have blocked me for three months, thus not enabling me to really do anything //except read the guides. Sure, as admin you have power to do anything you want, but for the few edits I have done, I feel as though three months is completely unnecessary. Three days, perhaps. I get it. I understand. Don't edit the layout guide. Don't remove code unless I am 100% certain it is unneeded (for instance, HTML code that isn't used on the wiki, like ). Don't make suggestions this close to the season premiere and, apparently, this soon after other changes were suggested (though Skyzy could have told me. They've been here long enough, I assume).

You say this could have been prevented if I had sent a message. And yet it could also have been prevented if you had done the same, telling me my actions were not in the best interest of the wiki. I don't see suggestions as detrimental, and, obviously, if I make a mistake it's because it was an accident.

The most 'clear offenses' I have done have been tiny in the grand scheme of things. They have been mistakes, or things that I believed were correct (but now understand weren't). I apologise. The landing page for the 'policies' tab leads me straight to a line that says "Don't be afraid to get started. Go ahead, it's a wiki!" and yet when I've done that, I've earned a block before even being warned that my actions of 'getting started' could result in one. I don't believe that's fair, and I think that, if you give me another go, I can prove it to you.
