Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited South Bend, Indiana ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. Joseph River ↗.

Speedy deletion ↗ nomination of :Circle Tower ↗


48px|left|alt=|link= ↗
{{Quote box|quote=<p>If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article ↗.</p><p>You may want to consider using the Article Wizard ↗ to help you create articles.</p>|width=20%|align=right}}
A tag has been placed on :Circle Tower ↗ requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion ↗, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement ↗. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://indyencyclopedia.org/circle-tower/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of ''information'', but not as a source of ''sentences''. This part is crucial: ''say it in your own words''. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators '''will be blocked from editing ↗'''.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you ''must'' verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials ↗. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission ↗ for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy ↗ for more details, or ask a question here ↗.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by visiting the page ↗ and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines ↗. <!-- Template:Db-copyvio-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> <small><b style="color:blue; text-shadow:cyan 0.0em 0.0em 0.1em;">CycloneYoris</b></small> <sup><b style="color:purple">''talk!''</b></sup> 10:59, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Indiana ↗



Thank you for reverting vandalism on the subject article. Vandalism is very frustrating, I know. It pisses me off too. But we also have a policy called No Personal Attacks ↗. Saying to the vandal "Grow up and go make some friends instead of vandalizing Wikipedia, what a sad loser you are" is likely to be seen by many as such. What would be disappointing is you landing in the same kind of hot water the vandal deserves, so basically, it's really best to just revert and leave the normal courteous warning on their talk page. And if they get enough warnings, their access will be zapped. Thanks for your time and your anti-vandalism. <span style="color: green;">'''Stefen <span style="white-space: nowrap;">Tower<sub>s among the rest!</sub></span>'''</span> <sup>Gab • Gruntwerk ↗</sup> 05:12, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

The more appropriate route to creating an article written by a brand-new user in the future (especially one with a close connection to the subject) is generally going to be WP:AFC ↗. They're heavily backlogged right now to be sure, but this article did have major problems that an AfC review would've caught.

Collaboration on Efilism or Promortalism articles?



Hello Indiana6724. In Talk:2025 Palm Springs fertility clinic bombing ↗, you said that an article for Efilism should be created, which I'd also like to see. I started a draft in my own user space, User:Zero Contradictions/Efilism, but I hope that I won't have to write it all myself, since I'm a busy person, I have lots of other things to do, and a second pair of eyes could probably find some sources that I have missed, since that's the highest priority at the moment. If you're interested in collaborating on that draft or Draft:Promortalism ↗, then I would greatly appreciate that. Zero Contradictions (talk) 08:18, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

:I’ll see what I can do, but when you have the chance you should probably expand on the Adam Lanza section as there is much more to be said about him. Indiana6724 (talk) 04:32, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
::Okay, sounds good. I'm almost finished reading all the sources that I want to cite, except for a few academic works and my desire to re-read Van Allen's commentary on Efilism.
::I agree that there's a lot that can be said about Lanza, but so far, I've only found a book that talks about him, a magazine article that describes his influence by efilism, and a more recent news article that briefly alludes to his YouTube channel. The current consensus for Lanza's Wikipedia entry is that more RSs are needed to prove his influence by efilism and the identification/existence of his YouTube channel. My guess is that the editors of that article are probably unaware of the sources that I've found. But still, the more sources we have, the better. I will probably start a talk page discussion about this over there eventually. Zero Contradictions (talk) 08:17, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
:::Some TCC member tried to create an article on him, it failed to be made due to a consensus by one. Maybe you could make one, and I could help. Indiana6724 (talk) 12:20, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
::::I thought the draft didn’t exist, apparently it does: Draft:Adam Lanza ↗. Maybe we could start a new consensus on whether it’s eligible for an article or not? He has the same qualifications if not more as Elliot Rodger ↗. Indiana6724 (talk) 12:55, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
:::::Wow, thanks for showing me this. I had no idea that this existed either. That draft doesn't even cite T. K. Van Allen or Katherine Dee's writing on Lanza, nor does it cite more news articles that state that Lanza inspired the perpetrator of the 2025 Palm Springs bombing.
:::::I agree that that draft should be published. It seems that the main reason why it was rejected in the past four attempts was because the consensus failed, and it failed mainly because the reviewers thought the article was not notable enough among other things.
:::::We should start another consensus vote to get that draft published as well, but we should first edit it to include and cite the important yet unincluded sources that I mentioned. Zero Contradictions (talk) 22:28, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
::I should get some sleep, but at the time of writing this, I think the only major thing that's left to do for the Efilist draft is to cite information from Van Allen's books about Efilism and Adam Lanza. Finding more papers and books to cite regarding David Bentar's and other antinatalists' views on promortalism could also be useful. If those one or two things get finished, then I think the draft is ready for submission. Zero Contradictions (talk) 12:50, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution



25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied content from numerous pages into :Timeline of terrorist attacks in the United States ↗. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content (here or elsewhere), Wikipedia's licensing ↗ does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary ↗ at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking ↗ to the copied page, e.g., <code>copied content from <nowiki>page name ↗</nowiki>; see that page's history for attribution</code>. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also.

August 2025



25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi Indiana6724! I noticed that you recently made an edit and marked it as "minor", but it may not have been. On Wikipedia, "minor edit ↗" refers only to superficial edits that could never be disputed, such as fixing typo ↗s or reverting obvious vandalism ↗. Any edit that changes the <em>meaning</em> of an article is not minor, even if it only concerns a single word. '''''It looks like you mark almost all of your edits as "minor" even when you have removed or added major portions of content, such as on Timeline of terrorist attacks in the United States ↗, Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting ↗, List of tallest buildings in Columbus, Ohio ↗, etc.''''' <!-- Template:uw-minor --> Shearonink (talk) 14:42, 30 August 2025 (UTC)

:Yes, thanks for pointing that out. i tend to tag my edits as "minor" even when I don't intend to. Indiana6724 (talk) 23:44, 30 August 2025 (UTC)
::You are still marking most of your edits ↗ as minor, even though most of them clearly aren't. What gives? Are you aware that marking your edits as minor hides them from logged-in users who have chosen in their preferences not to display minor edits? I fail to see how it is difficult to simply not mark your edits as minor. For example in your most recent edits, you added an entire unsourced section dedicated to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting ↗ in the History of Newtown, Connecticut ↗ article and marked it as minor edit. Do you believe this is a minor edit?
::Please read WP:MINOR ↗ and the lines {{tq|A good rule of thumb is that only edits consisting solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of the content may be flagged as minor edits.}} and note that {{tq|If other editors complain about your use of the "minor" edit flag, then it's likely a good idea to stop using it.}}
::You also rarely use ↗ an edit summary. Please read WP:ES ↗ as all edits should be explained, with exception for cases in which the reason is obvious. Raskuly (talk) 05:19, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

Draft:Moses Montefiore Academy shooting ↗



None of the citations you provided actually verify the information in this article. ''The Washington Post'' link is dead, the United Press International citation just links to their Archives page, and the WLS-TV citation links to a completely different article. Please fix your citations. I have found multiple easily accessible sources about the shooting from a quick Google search, but the responsibility of providing working citations is on the user who adds them. See WP:BURDEN ↗. As such, since there are no existing sources in the article which actually verify it, I've moved it to draft. Raskuly (talk) 06:14, 25 October 2025 (UTC)

How exactly have you found yourself editing the sandbox of this user? Did you get permission to do so? Are you the same person? Raskuly (talk) 05:17, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

::::What you're upset by is my realization of your chronic misuse ↗ of the minor edit checkbox and neglect of edit summaries causing me to follow up on your problematic edit habits. Shearonink warned you about your misuse yet you continued to misuse them. The extent of your misuse of minor edits after being warned was alarming, so I followed up on it periodically and reverted your most recent additions to the History of Newtown, Connecticut ↗ article (which was also done without references), since they were done while misusing minor edits, hoping you'd fix it and to get the point across.
::::While looking through the school shooting categories, which frequently have articles inappropriately added to them, I found the recently created Draft:1988 Chicago shootings ↗, which you happened to create. You uploaded an image in it which you appeared to not have the rights to, so I nominated it for deletion. Additionally, none of the sources in the article actually supported the content per what I said at User talk:Indiana6724#Draft:Moses Montefiore Academy shooting, so I moved it to draft, expecting you to fix it per WP:BURDEN ↗.
::::On November 6, using the Cainbread account, you reverted my edit ↗ to the History of Newtown, Connecticut article, and because of my notification settings, I was sent a notification that one of my edits had been reverted. The Cainbread account was extremely suspicious as about an hour after reverting my edit you began editing User:Cainbread/sandbox on it. This sandbox was dedicated to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting ↗. A new user would be unlikely to know about sandboxes so that indicated to me that it was potentially a sockpuppet account. I saw by following up on the Cainbread account that you had edited the sandbox on this account and so I looked at your edit history and saw that you had also replied on the talk page of the Sandy Hook Elementary School article. The account you were replying to was named Kaynbred89, which is very similar to Cainbread. I also saw that Kaynbred89 was a sockpuppet account of Travis Lanza, and so after reporting Cainbread as a potential sockpuppet of Travis Lanza I inquired on your talk page about your potential connection to the Cainbread account.
::::Girth Summit investigated the Cainbread account and found that while it was not connected to Travis Lanza, it was instead connected to you. Cainbread ↗ is actually older than Kaynbred89 ↗ per the logs, so somehow Travis Lanza saw your Cainbread account and made a sockpuppet with a similar name, you're incredibly unlikely and were found out to be using an alternative account without properly disclosing it through Travis Lanza by coincidence making an account with a similar name, you have a connection to Travis Lanza, or something I can't think of.

Ban appeal



{{unblock reviewed |1=I am appealing my indefinite block for sockpuppetry placed on 15 November 2025 ↗. After six months of studying WP:SOCK ↗, WP:MEAT ↗, WP:AGF ↗, and related policies in my spare time, I believe I am now ready to return under the WP:STANDARD OFFER ↗. I created the account Cainbread as a legitimate alternate account to separate my true-crime editing from my main work on Indiana-related topics, even though it may sound unusual. I did not use the accounts to edit the same pages, vote twice, or evade scrutiny in any coordinated way. However, I made two clear mistakes: I failed to declare Cainbread as an alternate account on my user pages, and I restored reverted material using the new account. This gave the reasonable appearance of evasion, even though that was not my intent. I also acknowledge that the shared interest in shooting-related articles, combined with username similarities noted in the investigation, made the situation look suspicious. CheckUser results showed no technical connection between my accounts and the Travis Lanza sock ring. I have no relation to Travis Lanza, Kaynbred89, or any other accounts in that case. The only overlap was a narrow topic interest, which is not evidence of sockpuppetry. If unblocked, I commit to: Never creating or using an undeclared alternate account. Discussing any future alternate account on my user talk page first. Using only reliable sources and achieving talk-page consensus before restoring reverted material unless it is blatant vandalism. Avoiding the "minor edit" flag except for actual minor changes. Staying away from any previously contentious topics if requested.

::I don't know, {{u|Voorts}}, none of this sits right with me. This appeal essentially boils down to 'nothing to do with me'; if we are to accept that, we must accept the premise that two unconnected people, within a week of one other, decided to create socks both called variant spellings of 'Cane Bread', and both decide to edit in the sensitive area of the Sandy Hook school shooting. It seems far-fetched to me; I'd have been much more inclined to accept something that actually offered some sort of explanation for that coincidence, even if it was 'yeah, that was my buddy, I shouldn't have done that'. Regardless, there is no technical evidence of recent block evasion; I would not stand in your way if you wanted to unblock. <span style="font-family:Impact;color:#006400;">Girth</span>&nbsp;<span style="font-family:Impact;color:#4B0082;">Summit</span><sub style="font-family:Segoe print;color:blue;"> (blether)</sub> 16:15, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
:::I know that it’s incredibly suspicious, but once again I have no relation to them. My writing style and grammar are noticeably different from the accounts in that SPI. Anyone who compares the edits can see clear differences in how sentences are structured, vocabulary choices, and overall tone.
:::The "Cainbread" username was a reference to Adam Lanza’s supposed Wikipedia account . The other account just happened to also use a similar variant spelling for the same reason. Regardless, creating an undeclared alternate account and restoring reverted material were serious mistakes in judgment, regardless of my intentions. Indiana6724 (talk) 01:47, 15 May 2026 (UTC)
:::Yeah, that's an unlikely coincidence. I have no idea who Kaynbred89 is, but I don't believe they are related to Indiana6724. I think that name is best explained as someone else who was also parodying Adam Lanza's alleged Wikipedia account. It's not uncommon for there to be multiple people to be parodying the same thing.

Hartford City, Indiana



I appreciate your work on Hartford City, Indiana ↗. However, there are a few things you did that you should fix. The courthouse does not need to appear four times in the article. It is already in History of Hartford City, Indiana ↗, Blackford County Courthouse ↗, and Hartford City Courthouse Square Historic District ↗. You also need to avoid sandwiching text between images--see MOS on text sandwiching ↗. Adjust the size of images using "upright=". The default is 1.0, but they may need to be smaller or larger depending on the situation. For example: the image of Little Turtle is too big, sandwiches text, and is already in History of Hartford City, Indiana ↗. See also Wikipedia:Image use policy ↗.
