Funeral Advantage

Hi there. I just wanna tell you a few formatting issues you did on Funeral Advantage.

Punctuation goes before the ref tag, not after.
Italicize any and all album names.

Thanks. --Jennica✿ / ^talk 01:09, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked for sockpuppetry

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Birdsandwasps. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

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) 16:59, 25 January 2022 (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).

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

Request reason:

Hi Blablubbs - may I please briefly explain that I used the source code from Simple Wikipedia, which can be found with a quick Google and it appears to be live. This is not really fair. AntoniaDK and I are not associated in any way and the checkuser confirmed that. Birdsandwasps (talk) 17:04, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

So what's the relationship between this account, User:Glucken123, and User:Mightberightorwrong, all of which edited the same AFD from the same IP? --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 17:27, 25 January 2022 (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.

Hi there. I'm sorry if this is causing you stress, and if I am wrong, I do sincerely apologise – here's my reasoning: w:simple:Yannis Assael does not appear to have ever existed. Everybodywiki has an automatic import, but you also claimed that you were "recreating it from scratch", which makes this a copyright violation at best. I find it hard to believe that two people who aren't directly or indirectly coordinating with one another would create the exact same page, with one of the accounts spontaneously re-activating to defend a subsequent creation when it gets dragged to AfD, especially when there also appears to have been a longstanding push to write articles about Assael and associated individuals. Checkuser cannot prove a negative, and as stated in the investigation, only one account was checked; the fact that your account didn't show up isn't really proof of anything except "the two accounts weren't recently used on the same IP address and computer", which doesn't disprove sockpuppetry, and can never disprove meatpuppetry. Another admin should be along shortly to review your unblock request. Best, --Blablubbs (talk) 17:24, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Apologies, I am referring to EverybodyWikipedia (feel free to google it), as WP won't allow me to paste its link here. I did create it from scratch as I used the previous code as the main base to begin my edits and come up with sources. From what I see, and according to EverybodyWikipedia the code was indeed previously used here as it includes the AfD tag which indicates deletion. It's taken straight from Wikipedia, therefore it's not a copyright violation because the text was first created here. In regards to the other account, I have no association with them and have absolutely no idea who is behind those edits. This accusation is sadly baseless and harsh.
