TestWiki editing restriction
Hi BlackWidowMovie0000Editor,

Though TestWiki prides itself on having few official rules, we do nonetheless have to have some policies together with common sense and established customs and conventions, and it's not clear from your recent edits and log actions that you've read some or all of them. I do appreciate that TestWiki's lack of rules and increased reliance on established customs and conventions and a healthy dose of common sense can be difficult for new users to comprehend or become accustomed to. And, to be clear, you've had several constructive and potentially useful contributions, notably the creation of the potentially useful TestWiki redirect to Main Page when linking to TestWiki's main page in an interwiki wikilink without having to use a pipe trick and your creation of Template:Administrator. Having said that, your testing on Community portal with a Consul-only template, as you did here, and your edit warring with a Consul by repeatedly re-adding redundant user groups without asking for permission to have the arguably unnecessary duplicative user groups and, equally crucially, explaining your valid reason(s) for wanting to have these extra user groups are the most problematic.

As such, as a Consul action, with the agreement of my fellow Consuls, I am imposing a TestWiki editing restriction prohibiting you from rerequesting rights for at least thirty (30) calendar days (inclusive of today). When you rerequest rights, only a Consul may grant rights, and you will be required to complete and pass a short five question quiz that will be based on any of official policies, with possibly one question based on common sense. To pass the quiz, you must pass with a score of 80% or better. There is no limit to the number of times you may rewrite the quiz, though the questions will be neither difficult or particularly challenging.

To log this restriction, you will note a short one second log entry in your user rights log. Additionally, it will also be logged at Editing restrictions, and I may reduce your 1 day block, again with the consent of the imposing Consul.

Cheers,
