Request reason:

This is my office computer and this laptop been used for Wikipedia purposes under my name and I never authorized any person to use this laptop.

I know the account password, because we got the employee and he signed a letter explaining what he did into our company, other than using our computers for illegal purposes, and more .. He fired and reported to the local law enforcement agencies. I don't have to lie and write fake articles, look up my name online and you will better know who I'am I

I am not sure, what we can do to resolve this issue, I am not the same person who been blocked by Wikipedia!!! 

The person blocked by Wikipedia, was one of our company employees, and he been working on this computer (All computers owned by the company) and he no longer working with us since a year ago.

We are looking to create article with trusted resources but we are not allowed because this computer IP blocked by you.

If you you looking for more clarification in regard resolving this issue, please let us know. Ricky Madison (talk) 20:55, 26 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

I am declining this request. If someone else had used this account, it will need to remain blocked at compromised. We have no way of knowing who is sitting at the computer using this username. See WP:COMPROMISED. That page explains a pathway through which you could create a new account, but you should also read about conflict of interest at WP:COI and paid editing at WP:PAID first. 331dot (talk) 22:46, 26 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

If this account was used by another person, it will remain blocked. However, if it wasn't you who created it, how come you know the password and know about this account in the first place?

Request reason:

Please read carefully this message, Wikipedia misunderstood what we did because of company names are both too close each other.

We believe their is a misunderstanding, we called our employee who used my name to edit Wikipedia, and looks like he didn't lies about Ohio Eastern University as you mentioned, he was writing new article on "Ohio eastern University" https://www5.sos.state.oh.us/ords/f?p=100:7:::NO:7:P7_CHARTER_NUM:2319679

New University LLC in Ohio, and he didn't mean to mention (Ohio University / Eastern).

Ohio Eastern University & Ohio University Eastern are both two different entities and are both NOT the same.

This is the article he we wrote on Wikipedia and this was under my supervision, http://speedydeletion.wikia.com/wiki/Ohio_Eastern_University Ricky Madison (talk) 18:46, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

The issues over promotional activity and about those articles have really taken a back seat since you told us that unauthorized people have used this account. As several other admins have already told you, that makes it compromised, and it can not be unblocked. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 10:26, 4 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

I've restored the declined unblock notices; you aren't allowed to blank those. And that article would probably have led to a block anyway as it's blatantly promotional. Even then, the main concern here is that the account is either compromised or you're telling us what we want to hear. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:00, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

I didn't mean to remove declined unblock notices, I am not concerning about the article now, because I understand the article need to be reviewed by wikipedia first in order to be published, But what I am concerning about is we didn't lie as your team mentioned before, OEU & OUE are two different entities, and are both NOT the same, hope you understand this.

wikipedia forwarding "Ohio Eastern University" to "Ohio University Eastern" while this forward not correct, because both universities are two different universities.

I wish you understand why I am concerning about blocking my account. Ricky Madison (talk) 19:09, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

There is no such thing as "our team". We're all volunteer editors, not paid staff. (Paid staff doesn't edit.)
And if you're going to be making the statement that Huon's assessment is incorrect I will note the deletion log lists the Articles for Deletion debate he mentioned, and the AfD notes the apparent attempts to deliberately confuse yourselves with Ohio University Eastern Campus, as well as the now-obvious interest (given the three other deletions are all for blatant spam) in only using Wikipedia as a billboard. We're not ad space, we require third-party reliable sources, and we delete spam on sight. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:19, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

I don't believe you get it, I AM NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE ARTICLE, I am concerning about my account, I am honest with you and I am telling you what we did was about another school. Also, I know this is not a place ads, that's why I am telling you we understand wikipedia will review our article so I don't care about the article itself. ALL I CARE ABOUT is my account. I am asking you nicely to unblock my account "It's request", hope you understand my request.Ricky Madison (talk) 19:26, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

"What we did was about another school." See my comment here when I blocked the account. Someone editing from this account lied about Ohio Eastern University. Huon (talk) 23:38, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Huon I appreciate your response, and I understand where came from. ((You mentioned: What we did was about another school)) and I looked into your comments again, and here is my request to you, for all what we did before I'd like to apologize and request if you can unblock my account, as soon as you do it I'll like my account to my work email so I'll make sure not share this account in future. and if you consider article for deletion because its look like advertisement, this is your decision and I am happy to have volunteers like you confirming people articles. I already start learning whats Wikipedia requirements to write new article and I understand new article need to be reviewed before published, but I can't move forward without your help by unblocking my account.

Firstly, generally blocks aren't supposed to be reviewed by the blocking admin himself. Secondly, several admins have told you that compromised accounts are not unblocked; I can't imagine the next reviewer will disagree with that. Thirdly, if you intend to write a new article, WP:N would be a good read; it's our guideline on notability. Huon (talk) 23:58, 3 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
