Request reason:

This block is an unfair use of Wikipedia., and arises out of a desire by some to want to close down compromise editing of articles and talk pages. Those suggesting it are in my view guilty of Bullying Tactics, Edit Warring, Gaming, and POV Railroad. The article on the James Bond Film, SPECTRE, has been dominated by two very aggressive editors who feel that the article and even the subject belongs to them! They have even cut off discussion on the talk page, let alone the article itself. Please investigate this, for which I will be very grateful. Shanklin1914 (talk) 5:24 pm, Today (UTC+1)

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Request reason:

This unblock review is unsatisfactory. If the reasons stated above having nothing to do with why I have been blocked, then why was I? I think I deserve a more satisfactory explanation.

Decline reason:

WP:DUCK sockpuppetry. Repeat unblock requests that do not address the reason for your block may result in loss of your ability to edit this talk page. OhNoitsJamie Talk 20:20, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Your evidence please? – Shanklin1914 (talk) 17:15, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Please do not remove the block template. The wording "Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked." is in bold near the top. - – SchroCat (talk) 19:30, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

OK. Will do so when block removed. – Shanklin1914 (talk) 20:00, 9 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
