July 2016 edit

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:48, 8 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • As you are evading your block by continuing to edit logged out, I have increased the block length to one week. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:01, 8 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

First of all I will have you know that I have not been logging out of my account at all today, so you increased my block for no reason. I literally just woke up and had all of these messages for me being blocked for literally no reason. So you're the one looking dumb and weak blocking me for no reason. Get a life and get off my talk page now. Quit making assumptions you don't even know.

  Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Template:Bad Girls Club.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. EvergreenFir (talk) 21:38, 16 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ok what I am doing is putting the new season of the bad girls club THAT'S ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND IS EVERYWHERE!!! So stop deleting it.

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Bad Girls Club, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. AussieLegend () 16:40, 19 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

Ok seriously though??, if you go on oxygen's page, everything for the new season of the bad girls club is on their, the trailer is released today, they have the girls and where their from, and the day it airs, so I'm helping this page, you are the ones ruining it, and I will not stop either because you guys can't put it on their yourselfs, so I am.
Not good enough. You need to provide inline citations for the content that you persist in adding to the article. Without inline citations supporting the claims, the content must be removed. =--AussieLegend ()
Then how about you do it. I'm trying to help the page, but you keep deleting it. It doesn't make sense to have a page, without updating it about the new seasons. You have no sources or nothing about it, and I am trying to put stuff on there, and you keep deleting it.
I don't know where these alleged sources are. It's up to you to provide sources for the content that you add. The more I see of what you post, the more you look like this editor. --AussieLegend () 18:46, 19 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
You can find all of the sources on Oxygen's page like I just said. Again, it's not up to me to provide the sources. --AussieLegend () 19:23, 19 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee.

  • Well, not indefinitely--I blocked your account for two weeks. Should disruptive editing continue, you'll probably be blocked indefinitely. Drmies (talk) 03:07, 20 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I haven't been disrupting or vandalizing any pages, I got blocked for no reason. So it's very unfair to block me, for doing nothing. Unblock me.

Decline reason:

It seams that it is established with certainty that this account was created to evade the block. Vanjagenije (talk) 16:36, 22 July 2016 (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.

  • You are very clearly the same editor as ******, who is currently blocked for 6 months, and you've evaded that block as ****. When you are blocked you are not allowed to edit. --AussieLegend () 07:02, 21 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

But I'm clearly not the same editor, so you're making assumptions that aren't true. You're blocking me for no reason.

Since this is a checkuser block, I need Drmies to clarify the situation. What is the exact reason for block? Vanjagenije (talk) 17:51, 21 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

There was no real reason to block me, they thought I was someone else, which I am not, and blocked me for doing nothing.

No, you were blocked for doing something: editing in defiance of a block (on an IP address). User:Vanjagenije, DoRD can probably confirm the socking, and perhaps Yamaguchi先生 can as well. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 12:09, 22 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

How can I edit something when I'm blocked... Exactly I can't, so you're blocking me for literally doing nothing. Childish and ridiculous.

You are accused of logged-out editing (anonymous IP editing) while being blocked. That is, indeed, possible. But, it is not allowed. In Wikipedia, blocks are issued to persons, not accounts. You are blocked as a person, so you shouldn't be editing. And, please, start WP:signing your posts. Vanjagenije (talk) 13:10, 22 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

And I swear to god on my life I wasn't logging out of my account at all what so ever. So I'm being accused of something I didn't do. So just because I get accused of something, doesn't mean I should be blocked for 2 weeks.

  • Oh knock it off. You were making the same kinds of edits you were making before you registered this account. That IP address was blocked, at which time you sang the same tune you're singing now ("I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING ANYTHING. SO WHY DID YOU BLOCK ME NOW. I LITERALLY HAVEN'T BEEN EDITING ANYTHING. UNBLOCK ME RIGHT NOW." -- note your unwarranted use of the word "literally" then and now; for those interested, please see User:Mandarax/litterally) and you created the account to avoid the block. Your block log goes back to February; unfortunately, Yamaguchi先生 did not check the "revent logged-in users from editing from this IP address" box.

    Considering this jeremiad, and the fact that I now see that you've been editing disruptively since at least November 2015 (a warning by AussieLegend making a lot of edits that are trivial, unnecessary, unexplained, I'm going to literally go ahead and block this account indefinitely. If you have anything more useful to say than I DIDN'T TO ANYTHING, go ahead and say it--if that's really the only song on your repertoire, I will also revoke your talk page access. You have taken up too much valuable time.

    For the record: some of the editor's work was coloring articles like it's kindergarten; Callmemirela warned them about violating WP:COLOR in January 2016 already. Other warnings for disruptive editing (unexplained and unverified information on reality TV shows, frequently) were given by EvergreenFir, Donner60, DPH1110, Linguist111. Blocks were made by, in chronological order, Peacemaker67, KrakatoaKatie, Materialscientist, and Yamaguchi (twice). Drmies (talk) 15:43, 22 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • @Vanjagenije: You are accused of logged-out editing (anonymous IP editing) while being blocked - It's really moot now, and Drmies has pretty much covered the issues but, just to clarify since I have no doubt we'll see this editor again, he originally edited as 68.187.108.155 and was eventually blocked. He then evaded the block using *****. When I pointed out to ****** that it was obvious he was ****, he stopped editing from that IP and created this account. The actual situation is a reverse of what we usually see. He was using an IP and created an account to evade his IP block. --AussieLegend () 16:23, 22 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
