Finnish level 4

Since there are now 4 levels of many languages (plus native), you may wish to upgrade your fi-3 to fi-4 (which I just created), if you feel it is the right thing to do. I contacted you because you were the only other person in category fi-3. --Janke | Talk 23:42, 30 July 2005 (UTC)

way to go

Tervist, lugesin läbi mõned Teie kommentaarid ja olin ausalt öeldes üllatunud nende sügavusest ja autori heast stiilist. Way to go :=))

== Hi! Can you please read up on Help:Renaming (moving) a page before attempting to move pages in the future? Cheers. -- Francs2000 22:50, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Recent trivia

Hi 3 Löwi, are you the 85.87.106.68 IP who has also undone my revert on Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic? -Vipz (talk) 12:08, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

@Vipz Interesting, I have also been been reverted by seemingly magically appearing IP's when reverting this editor before. TylerBurden (talk) 23:25, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

Their edit summaries are almost identical:[1][2]. Yet it continues. Mellk (talk) 21:41, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

@TylerBurden and Vipz, you are not the only ones, see [3]. 3 Löwi, please address these issues. Shellwood (talk) 15:21, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:

Dear Sir or Madam, With all due respect, there is no Wikipedia prohibition on editing non-protected articles using an IP address. I have made frequent good-faith edits without signing in, and sometimes simply forgotten to do so, and as a result, several IP addresses are indeed being attributed to my edits, without any violations occurring on my part that I would be aware of. The accusations brought into the SPI are vague on what specific abuse(s) they address. The severest accusation against me — of destroying the 2023 Estonian parliamentary election article - is absolutely false and unacceptable. All the relevant edits are on the record. Thank you for your time and consideration. 3 Löwi (talk) 01:06, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

From WP:LOUTSOCK: "Editing under multiple IP addresses, or editing under both a named account and as an IP, when done deceptively or otherwise violates the principles of this policy, may be treated as the same level of disruption as editing under multiple accounts." (Emphasis mine). Editors who really do forget they're logged out and care about their reputation (as well as their privacy) usually go right to oversight to take care of that. Based on the SPI and your characterization of your actions above, there is no reason to unblock you at this time. — Daniel Case (talk) 07:38, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

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.

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/3 Löwi.

Request reason:

Please unblock. I have not used multiple accounts and have no idea about who, where or why have been editing Wikipedia from under the account named D1Hondt. Please run a thorough IP check on the alleged "sockpuppet" account(s), please correct the error, and please unblock 3 Löwi. Thank you for your understanding. 3 Löwi (talk) 18:41, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Per WP:CHECKUSER, "On some Wikimedia projects, an editor's IP addresses may be checked upon their request, typically to prove innocence against a sockpuppet allegation. Such checks are not allowed on the English Wikipedia and such requests will not be granted.". This request does not address what is discussed in the SPI. 331dot (talk) 19:03, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
