Note 2: When it is April fool's day, DO NOT TROUT ME as an April Fool's joke. In the past I had a trout button which I removed due to persistent abuse of it. If you trout me on april fool's day I will revert you and warn you for vandalism since I will not find it funny.
Wikibreak
So as I'm sure some people have noticed, I'm going to attempt to take a break from Wikipedia. My reasoning is I feel that I've become addicted to Wikipedia and it's been affecting my real life as it's become sort of a distraction. I've also been making a lot of stupid and easily avoidable mistakes lately that I feel might be due to my Wikipedia addiction which has caused me to feel a need to interact with every little thing on here. I'm not taking a break in an attempt to hide from my mistakes, but to help me make fewer of them. I know that we are all humans and that we will all make mistakes, however, sometimes you can make too many mistakes. During my break I will occasionally check my talk page or make a few minor edits (as in grammar or spelling fixes in articles), but I'm mostly going to try and stay off of Wikipedia until I feel that I'm ready to return. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:32, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

- I like your user name. My spirit animal is a wolf, and I am addicted to pretty much all things wolf-related. Also, if I may add, (not to be rude or anything), but Wikipedia seems like a strange addiction to me. Not like, say, a video game or anything. But you do you.

- Hey I am very sorry about this situation! Recently my passwords have been hacked and stolen by a few of my late friends. I have taken this to the police in order to sort this problem out, so please be patience with me and understanding!
- Also please don't block me from editing Wikipedia Articles, I need this for school and job purposes.
- I'm not sure if this message will even reach you so please be understanding as I am trying to sort out who did this, because it wasn't me!
- Kind Regards, Alaska Smith
