October 2021

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts and likely undisclosed paid editing in violation of the WMF terms of use per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Thaiboy43.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. --Blablubbs (talk) 09:05, 12 October 2021 (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).

Andcentra (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

It is very unfortunate that you blocked my account. As you can see my contributions, i did many edits which are helpful to the community rather than being disruptive or harm to the wiki community. If there is anyway that you can unblock my account, i would be grateful and not make any mistakes from now on. I have contributed to wiki community very fairly. Hope you can unblock my account. Andcentra ^talk 09:01, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. 331dot (talk) 09:18, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hello Administrators, i understand that i've been blocked for socking. I live in two different places, so i have used different ones for different computers and now i understand that having multiple accounts is not permitted, also i with my current account i have never broke any wiki rules and i continue to do valuable contributions to the community and i agree that i won't be using any other account than the one i am using it. I hope you can consider my request. Andcentra ^talk 14:06, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

While your openness regarding the use of multiple accounts, and pledge to stick to one account, is appreciated, the reason the multiple account issue came to light is that you are believed to be involved in undisclosed paid editing. These concerns will need to be addressed in any future appeals. Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:23, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you can consider my request. Also, i am a paid wiki editor, in the past i have made undisclosed edits. I understand paid edits need to go through AFC and will do so from now. Can you please unblock me, so that i can make useful edits as well paid edits if needs to be. I am tired of using multiple accounts and then getting blocked. I just wanted to use one account for everything, whether it is normal edit or paid edits, i will disclose them all. I know wikipedia allows paid editing when disclosed. And i will do so if there are any paids. I just wanted to use one account for everything. I hope you can consider my request this time. Andcentra ^talk 02:15, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I think before we can consider unblocking you, you should disclose the paid edits you have made up to this point. 331dot (talk) 10:36, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can you disclose all paid edits done by your company since 2018? What about the rest of sockpuppets operated since, at least, that year? MarioGom (talk) 17:42, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As you are surely aware, you have evaded your block by editing through an IP since making this unblock request. We cannot possibly accept the request under those circumstances. Girth Summit _(blether) 08:38, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

* What about Captainoatmeal (talk · contribs)? Was that also your account? --Blablubbs (talk) 18:26, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- @Blablubbs Yes, both Captainoatmeal & Vegitaboss are mine. Andcentra ^talk 03:15, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - The fact that you were appealing your block and promising transparency while continuing to make undisclosed paid edits with sock accounts does not inspire me with confidence regarding the sincerity of your appeals here. I will also note that your current disclosure, while a step in the right direction, is inadequate; per WP:PAID and our terms of use, you "must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation", not just the fact that you are being paid. --Blablubbs (talk) 13:24, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Blablubbs Thanks for reviewing. I agree with all of my mistakes in the past, but as you can see all of my edits were constructive and never broke any Wikipedia TOC. Instead of directly pushing the article into mainspace, all my paid edits will be sent through AFC and will follow all guidelines. I've been an active editor here in Wikipedia for a while, and know what is right and wrong. And i will follow them for sure, and will disclose all my paid edits from here on. And regarding my employer client info, i have disclosed in the above, all of my clients were directly approached by me and they paid on their behalf.

Request reason:

Hello Admins, You won't unblock my account, you won't allow me to edit through IP. You won't allow me to create a new account. I am confused here. What should i do in this? I placed an unblock request, so as to do whatever i do will do legitimately by following all guidelines. I won't even edit through IP from now on. I will wait until this unblock is reviewed. I wouldn't edit through any other IP or create a new account from now. I hope you will consider my request this time. Andcentra ^talk 11:57, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

In your various appeals, you stated you'd read our rules and various documents were highlighted to you. They, and the block notice itself, make it clear you not your account were blocked. Between your inaccuracies here and the inaccuracies in telling the truth about IP, UPE, and sockpuppets, you just can't be trusted. You may be accepted if you don't edit for six months (as dated from your last breach of the rules) Nosebagbear (talk) 12:58, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's what it means to be blocked - it applies to you the person, not to a particular account or IP address. You personally are not permitted to contribute to this project in any capacity. If you are discovered to have done so, new accounts/IP addresses will be blocked, and any contributions you have made may be reverted or deleted without discussion. Your next best bet is to apply for the standard offer in six months. Girth Summit _(blether) 12:09, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of John A. Ambrose

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on John A. Ambrose, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Hello Wiki Admins, Its been 6 months passed since my last edit, i am willing to abide to all the Wikipedia rules this time and willing to disclose all my paid edits if i have any. Can you please consider my request and unblock my account Andcentra ^talk 05:03, 13 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Kanth1245, who is tagged as a sock puppet of yours, was blocked less than three months ago. Jordonsch, who looks to potentially be another sock puppet of yours, was also blocked just two months ago. That's a lot of spammers either on your IP range or editing articles of interest to you. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 00:44, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Andcentra: Will you disclose your employer? You are not only required to disclose your clients, but also the company that you're working with. You should also disclose all the accounts you used on behalf of said company. MarioGom (talk) 22:26, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
