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:

blocking administrator is no longer a user

Decline reason:

No reason to unblock. The retirement of a judge doesn't lead to the releasing of all of her/his past convicted felons; So neither, obviously, does the retirement, low-usage or any other status of the blocking admin on your or any other block. If you have a legitimate reason to give, ask again. If you're trolling or looking for loopholes, please move on as your time could be better used. Thanks. -- ➨ ЯEDVERS 19:00, 18 October 2006 (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.

(Note: He was trolling, and he doesn't have anything better to do with his time.)

<<unblock|I am requesting again for several reasons. The first, I have recently been reading Wikipedia blocking policy, and after reviewing my vandalism of the page for Brian Vickers, I found that it seems that I should not have been blocked indefinitely. I get my reasoning from the blocking policy (I am not sure if what I did was only vandalism or a personal attack as well):"Vandalism — Blocks should not be used against isolated incidents of vandalism. Dynamic IPs: up to 24 hours. Range blocks: about 15 minutes, then 1-3 hours, and 24 at most, to avoid collateral damage. User accounts with persistent violations may be blocked indefinitely. Personal attacks — Blocks should not normally be used against general incivility or isolated incidents of personal attacks. Again, dynamic IPs: up to 24 hours. AOL IPs and range blocks: about 15 minutes, then 1-3 hours, and 24 at most, to avoid collateral damage. User accounts with persistent violations may be blocked indefinitely." I have not had a history of persistent violations, and it seems that the most I was supposed to be blocked for was 24 hours. I also read in the blocking policy that if the vandal basically promises not to vandalise pages again, then they can be unblocked. Obviously, I am doing that right now. I seem to be looking for loopholes, and I probably am, but I hope that my request can be honored at last after about 6 months. Now, desperately, I admit to the vandalism (though I suppose that doesn't need doing as you can clearly see I did it), and I honorably (you must be thinking, "Yeah, right...") vow to begin to help Wikipedia rather than degrading it. I doubt that you will believe me, and I'm sorry to make you read this seemingly miserably long request, but I really hope that I can return to editing the bad grammar that I sometimes see that annoys me so. Excuse any of my own grammar which may have been improper. Thank you.>>

Y	Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s): I'm giving you a second chance. Don't blow it. Request handled by: Netsnipe ► 05:18, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Martinez & Caldwell

To User:Jean Girard and User:69.137.62.64:

Please do not create hoaxes, such as you did in the article Martinez & Caldwell. Cease and desist from introducing misinformation into Wikipedia if you are attempting to test our ability to detect and remove it. This has been done before, with universally negative results. Hoaxes are marked for deletion shortly after they are created. Kindly — do not disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method is to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia, and then to check to see how long they have been in place and, if possible, correct them. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia policy to learn more about this project and how you can make a positive impact. Thanks, --Calton | Talk 13:18, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry case

You have been accused of sockpuppetry. Please refer to Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Jean Girard for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with notes for the suspect before editing the evidence page. — Athaenara ✉ 22:21, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet

You have been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not.

If you are not a sock puppet, and would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
