Your user page

Have a look around at some other users to see what their pages are like. Or look at mine -- it's simplicity. I wouldn't worry too much about your user page just yet; just spend awhile finding your way around. Regards, ➪HiDrNick! 01:52, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked

Blocked: Indefinitely as a sockpuppet of ParthianShot (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) evading a block. If you are not ParthianShot, post a comment here and I will be happy to unblock you after your (non)identity has been confirmed by a checkuser. Thatcher131 19:15, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am not ParthianShot, what makes you think I am ParthianShot? just because I posted about his case, that makes me ParthianShot!?!? Enough proof for you to just block a user? I am starting to think Wikipedia has no check and balance for admins whatsoever, admins do as they wish. I\'ll make sure to write about this case in my upcoming article. Keep me blocked, I don\'t care, just post this message on admin\'s board in reponse to M: nationality is different from race. Th actions of the Indian admin doesn\'t seem fair. The admin seems abusive and pro-active, he just extended the user\'s block to 5 days, all because of 1 revert. Admins shouldn\'t be helping their compatriots in disputes by blocking their opponents, it just doesn\'t seem right. --MedianLady 19:35, 17 April 2007 (UTC) --MedianLady 19:35, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you are not ParthianShot, then why create a new account for this? To promote the argument that Wikipedia is racist? Sorry, but that is not a particularly good reason for you to be here and not a convincing reason for me to unblock you. I can't speak for every admin, but I don't make a habit of trying to identify the racial or cultural identities of editors. I have no idea about the backgrounds of Fullstop, Aski great, or ParthianShot, and I don't care. I do know that ParthianShot was edit warring with User:The Benham on Iranian women and would have been blocked for that edit war, except that the admin who blocked The Benham thought that this was ParthianShot's first offense (because ParthianShot has managed to conceal his previous history of edit warring and blocking as User:Surena). ParthianShot was also edit warring with Fullstop on Shapur I. Editors may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not violate the precise letter of the 3RR limit. (See Wikipedia:Edit warring.) And ParthianShot's edit was a reinstatement of a copyright violation taken from Encyclopedia Iranica. I verified this myself last night and was considering a block myself, except that I got distracted with other business. I fully endorse Aski's block of ParthianShot for edit warring and copyright violations and I belong to none of the ethnic groups you seem to feel are involved here.

I suspected you were ParthianShot because the first thing you did after creating a new account was to complain about ParthianShot's block (using knowledge of the editors' and admin's ethnic background that a new user would be unlikely to know). If you are not, and if you wish your account unblocked on the grounds that I made a mistake, post the {{unblock}} template on your talk page to have the block reviewed. I would rather not entertain further edits from another user whose main goal is to use a sockpuppet to turn Wikipedia into a racial or ethnic battleground, but I am willing to have that opinion reviewed by another admin. And, by the way, you seem to be editing from a misconfigured open proxy. I'm going to have that looked into as well. Cheers. Thatcher131 20:25, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The rational you used for blocking me was false, and that's a big NO NO for admins. I didn't edit-war anywhere and I am not ParhtianShot, your rational was untrue. I am standing up for justice, the block of that non-Indian user by an Indian admin was suspicious and unjust. Let me tell you something else, not only the admin User:Aksi great is Indian, he's also Gujarati like User:Fullstop. So they're both from the same clan who only make up 5% of Indians! Do you think this is acceptable? Have you ever heard of conflicts of interests? Do you think this is a all a coincidence? NO, I am 100% sure that User:Fullstop e-mailed and asked User:Aksi great to help him by blocking ParhtianShot, and that's what bothers me as a neutral observer. I have no doubts about this. Don't you think this is an abuse of Wikipedia? Please be open-minded. Also look at ParhtianShot's comments on his own page, he's been apparently framed as well and I have no reason not to believe that considering how you blocked me for just speaking out with no evidence.--MedianLady 20:48, 17 April 2007 (UTC)--MedianLady 20:48, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Stop playing games, please. [1] I have no interest in allowing you to turn Wikipedia into an ethnic or racial battleground. I would have blocked ParthianShot also, and I endorse the block. Take your allegations of racial conspiracy elsewhere, they are not welcome here. Thatcher131 21:08, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My Gratitutes

Dear MedianLady - I am most grateful for defending me and speaking of the truth - also I am very sorry to see that you have suffered as result of seeking justice on my behalf, and have faced block by one of the Admins (Thatcher131) - His approach to this case has been disrespectable, immature and utterly inappropriate – which could be understand as a collective punishment. He has also threatened Ashkani in the same manner, which demonstrates that he is a young and immature character. Thatcher131 should have gone through formal and normal checks to establish that we are not the same people, before accusing you of any wrong doings; - instead he blocked you based on his assumption and conclusion. I will submit a complaint regarding his misbehaviour, and hopefully Wikipedia management will resolve this matter by unblocking you. All the best - Kind Regards ← ← Parthian Shot (Talk) 08:22, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Unblock

Dear MedianLady - after a discussion with Thatcher131 he suggested that you place {{unblock}} tag in this page to request for block to be removed. ← ← Parthian Shot (Talk) 16:25, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
