[edit]

Information icon It may not have been your intention, but one of your edits, specifically one that you made on Chris Cuomo, may have introduced material that some consider controversial. Due to this, your edits may have been reverted. When adding material that may be controversial, it is good practice to first discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them, to gain consensus over whether or not to include the text, phrasing, etc. If you believe that the information you added was correct, please initiate that discussion. Thank you. KyleJoantalk 04:40, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Burgess Owens

[edit]

Please allow the county clerks in Utah to declare the winner of any race. I have no skin in the game, but a winner cannot be declared until the county clerks 1) Certify the votes or 2) The opponents concede the race. Once the winner has been declared, I don't see any problem with Owens being declared the winner, but preemptively declaring a winner, is fundamentally unfair, and exhibits a huge amount of bias for a living person article.

Fair enough. I don't have any stake in this contest either. In fact, I've never even been to Utah. MetaTracker (talk) 08:14, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm CommanderWaterford. An edit that you recently made to Cat seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:21, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Thanks. MetaTracker (talk) 20:32, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Geraldo Rivera, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 14:50, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, I'm JimKaatFan. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Tucker Carlson seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. As it appears this is not your first warning this month, perhaps consider the article talk page before making further edits. JimKaatFan (talk) 10:34, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Carlson's show

[edit]

If you think it's appropriate to censor the comments of the show's head writer, I suggest you take it to the talk page. JimKaatFan (talk) 07:29, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I have another question. How did you appear on June 17, 2020, already knowing exactly how to perfectly form citations and references, and learn so much about Wikipedia policies in the last 3 1/2 weeks? JimKaatFan (talk) 07:53, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm a quick learner, and I've been familiar with Wikipedia's citation and reference policies for a while, having read the site extensively for decades. MetaTracker (talk) 07:55, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
mmm hmm. Much like MaxArosev, I guess. He was a quick learner too. JimKaatFan (talk) 07:58, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Didn't know who Jim Kaat was, so I Googled him. Impressive. MetaTracker (talk) 08:02, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

[edit]

You have been mentioned here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Winkelvi&redirect=no Snooganssnoogans (talk) 14:31, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am not Winkelvi. I took a look at his/her user page, and you'll notice that it's very, uh, detailed. My page is very bare, largely because I have a very limited understanding of how to stylize a user page. If you are going to investigate me, I'd appreciate it if you'd take into account evidence that I am not Winkelvi. Also, you'll notice that I'm very particular when it comes to spelling. "Winkelvi" appears to be a reference to the Winklevoss twins. I would *never* misspell their name, even as an inside joke, precisely because I'm so averse to typos.

Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

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 why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.

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:

I'm being accused of operating multiple accounts, even though I'm not linked to any of the other individuals in question. If reinstated, I will not be making any more edits without first consulting with the respective talk pages of the Wikipedia pages I hope to alter. MetaTracker (talk) 01:34, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

 Confirmed sock puppetry during the unblock process. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:05, 13 July 2020 (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.
