Hello, I'm Discospinster. An edit that you recently made to University of Oxford seemed to be a test and has been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! ... discospinster _talk 21:53, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Entirely obvious edit warring. When you're doing that, it doesn't matter in the least whether your edits are right or wrong. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 22:55, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

(Non-administrator comment) It appears to me that you have been edit warring on University of Oxford, violating the three-revert-rule in the processing. Saying that your edit is appropriate does not justify repeatedly re-adding it after it is reverted. Also, your edit summaries tend to be random writings. Edit summaries should be used to explain your changes. You will need to address these issues. QwertyForest (talk) 22:44, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also the edit is not appropriate; it is grammatically incorrect. ... discospinster _talk 22:48, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Google right now if beginning a sentence with 'but' is ok. A letter to Harvard University from high ranking officials recently used this sentence and grammar structure, It is abusive to abuse the English language and not allow a better version of English to flourish on the Oxford page. 2601:646:A200:B620:2B70:6360:BFDD:C68F (talk) 23:43, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It was correct to start with. ... discospinster _talk 01:48, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
