Block message:

Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "Martauwo". The reason given for Martauwo's block is: "Abusing multiple accounts".


Decline reason: You have been blocked directly as stated in your block log. Since you have not provided a reason for being unblocked, your request has been declined. You may provide a reason for being unblocked by adding {{unblock | your reason here}} to the bottom of your talk page, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

hello something odd is going on i am following a discussion on Kyiv/Kiev naming, and the last posting was signed by user 60.242.0.245. I clicked on that to see who it was and discovered that the user is blocked, my name appears in the accusation as apparently 'using multiple accounts.' i had been blocked by ryulong on 11 september 2007, and received no answer to my question about what repeated abuse i was being accused of, yet the block was lifted. can someone please explain what is going on? thanks Martauwo 05:03, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

i am new to wikipedia and may be making errors inadverently - please accept my apologies. i am quite confused by the various allegations, though, since i have one account and have been using it since i began visiting wikipedia. how can i demonstrate my innocence?

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:

your_reason_here

Decline reason:

This is a very suspicious situation. Your IP has no blocks listed. Yet, on the 11th, you claimed to have received a block message.[1] You obviously were not blocked.[2] Your first block shows up as occuring on the 16th (today).[3] It appears the only way you would encounter a block message on the 11th is if you are using multiple accounts. As a result, I must accept the block reason and decline your request. — Vassyana 05:48, 16 September 2007 (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.

it seems that i have pasted the wrong template, my apologies, so hopefully this is the correct one. i am being accused of using multiple accounts - is it possible that i have logged in twice and that seems like i am using multiple accounts? i have one username and have been using it since i started visiting wikipedia. i am new to this process, and my be making mistakes, for which i apologise. however, i am used to people asking when something strange occurs rather than making accusations. i am a bit suprised that the administrator blocking me is not responding to my questions, thanks Martauwo 05:33, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply


Something strange indeed is going on. Please look into this and I would ask that another administrator look into this as well. Here are copies of messages which appeared on my user page informing that I was blocked (unfortunately the date does not appear) as well copies of the e-mails I sent to Ryulong who was blocking me (which do have dates.) The accusations of ‘continued abuse from this account,’ and ‘using multiple accounts’ are false. I often log on from different places, but have one account which I always use. I would like to see some evidence of this abuse before being penalized, and I am wondering why Ryulong does not respond to my questions. Thanks in advance

this appeared on 11 September:

You have been blocked from editing. 64.231.0.0/19 (your account, your IP address or a range of addresses) was blocked by Ryulong for the following reason (see our blocking policy):

Continued abuse from this address. Please contact your internet service provider so we may be able to address these concerns. To edit, please contact request an account. Your IP address is 64.231.11.194, and your block has been set to expire: indefinite.

This is a copy of my e-mail to Ryulong:

Tue 9/11/2007 2:10 PM Dear Ryulong

I was trying to contact Messedrocker to let her/him know that there is a problem with the RFC on the Kiev Talk page and encountered a red sign that said I am blocked indefinitely. The issue is that the RFC says, 'This tag will automatically place the page on the RFChist list.' yet there is no link. When I clicked on it, it said to report problems to Messedrocker, which I was trying to do. As a newcomer to Wikipedia, it may be possible that I have done something incorrectly. Please advise. And when you have a moment, could you please advise Messedrocker that there is a problem with the link.

Thanks in advance

Martauwo 17:26, 16 September 2007 (UTC) There was no response. On 16 September I posted a question on Ryulong's talk page.Reply


this appeared on my talk page 16 September 2007, after I enquired about another participant in a discussion which I have been following:

You have been blocked from editing. Martauwo (your account, your IP address or a range of addresses) was blocked by Ryulong for the following reason (see our blocking policy):

Abusing multiple accounts Your IP address is 67.68.35.61, and your block has been set to expire: indefinite.

this is a copy of my second e-mail to Ryulong: Sun 9/16/2007 12:54 AM Dear Ryulong

There appears to be some confusion. I was just following the discussion on the Kyiv/Kiev naming and the last posting was by someone identified as 60.242.0.245. I clicked on the number to see who that is to discover that the person is blocked and accused of being me, martauwo, using multiple accounts. Please look into this matter and note that I am not 60.242.0.245. I have also left a message for you on your talk page regarding a previous block, and would appreciate an answer when you have a moment. Thanks.

Martauwo 17:26, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I am wondering why the first block has disappeared! Please advise and thanks

Big mistake edit

I apologize. When I reset another block a while ago, I checked the wrong box. All should be fixed now.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 21:26, 18 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
