 Given that you've been warned before, you are blocked for a month for violating [[Tardis:No personal attacks]] on the edit summary at [[Alice Zhang]]. [[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]] [[User talk:Shambala108|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 18:35, June 10, 2018 (UTC)
 :I don't see how that was a personal attack. I reversed an edit on a page I've put work into and said a funny quote from The Avengers.  [[User:LegoK9|LegoK9]] [[User talk:LegoK9#top|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 19:50, June 10, 2018 (UTC)
+If you look at the edit history for [[Alice Zhang]], you can see [[User:OncomingStorm12th]]'s comment:
+:"Highly unusual to do galleries on artist pages. A simple bulleted list is was more usual for these."
+followed by your comment:
+:"'I recognize the council has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid ass decision, I've elected to ignore it.'"
+Yes I know the source of the quote and normally I would give bonus points for a quote from ''The Avengers'', but not in this case. To the average person, it looks like a deliberate attempt to ignore the rules, especially for anyone not familiar with the quote. To the average admin, it looks like an attempt to subvert [[Tardis:Do not disrupt this wiki to prove a point]].
+One thing you have to understand is that in this medium it is nearly impossible to recognize someone's mood or intent just by their text. We have no facial or vocal cues to let us know what someone means. Therefore, the typed words have to stand for themselves. If you type something calling someone a name, even as a joke, or suggest that the rules don't apply to you, even as a joke, it isn't always obvious to those reading that you are joking.
+One thing I failed to address earlier: your actual edit. OncomingStorm12th suggested that we don't usually use galleries for artist pages. Since that is true, but you disagreed with it, your next step would be to address the issue on the article's talk page, instead of reverting the previous edit. That leads to edit wars, which is something the admins in general try to avoid and is one of the main things I watch out for.
+Please keep in mind that your block is a month because I've already had to caution you against personal attacks in edit summaries. During your block I suggest you read [[Tardis:Edit summary]] and [[Tardis:Edit wars are good for absolutely nothing]].
