December 2013 edit

Latest comment: 10 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Great Chinese Famine may have broken the syntax by modifying 3 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 01:29, 17 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Blocked as a sockpuppet edit

This account has been blocked indefinitely as a suspected sock puppet of Oldhand 12 (talk · contribs · global contribs · page moves · user creation · block log) that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that all edits made while evading a block or ban may be reverted or deleted. If this is a sock puppet account, and your original account is blocked, please also note that banned or blocked users are not allowed to edit Wikipedia; if you are banned, all edits under this account may be reverted. If this account is not a sock puppet, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Request reason:

I don't know who is Oldhand 12. In a lunch break days ago, some of my co-work talked about how so unfair Wikipedia is in many articles about China, including "Great Chinese Famine", "Cultural Revolution", etc. So I looked up and made editing. Maybe I and someone share the same office using the same network. But it is so unfair to block my freedom of expressing my own opinions simply because I happen to have be in the same workplace with someone else.

Decline reason:

Let's see. At 00:52 UTC, Oldhand 12 makes this edit, continuing an edit war started around December 13. Twenty minutes later, on the same IP, this account is created, and the first thing it does is make the exact same edit. You're lucky the original account was not blocked as well; if you try this trick again it will be, guaranteed. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 16:05, 17 December 2013 (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.
