New Page Reviewer granted

Hello NaturalSelection. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.

URGENT: Please consider helping get the huge backlog down to a manageable number of pages as soon as possible.
Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. Malinaccier (talk) 02:07, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Due to information in ticket:2017072610022464, I've removed this user right. This may be temporary, but there's some information there that needs to be investigated. This does not necessarily imply wrongdoing on your part. Please be patient with me; thanks! ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 22:58, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This account has been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that using multiple accounts is allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that all edits made while evading a block or ban may be reverted or deleted. If this account is not a sock puppet, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 23:15, 26 July 2017 (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).

Request reason:

Why am I being banned? I've only been on Wikipedia for a couple of months. You do realize where I live we have public Wi-Fi service for all customers. NaturalSelection (talk) 03:51, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You do realize where I live we have public Wi-Fi service for all customers. You're not using a public Wi-Fi service, so your credibility is suspect. From the deleted pages you've edited, and the available technical evidence, you do appear to be a sockpuppet. —DoRD (talk) 11:45, 27 July 2017 (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.

There isn't an SPI report here and I'm not inclined to publicly post how we caught this sock for WP:BEANS reasons. Any admin can contact me for full details by email or IRC, but it included technical and behavioral evidence, including the fact that there is substantial overlap in the pages edited by this editor and the sock ring. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 04:56, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Quoting your exact words: "you do appear to be a sockpuppet," you are assuming I'm a sockpuppet. And yes, the wi-fi I utilize is public and many people have access to it. NaturalSelection (talk) 16:03, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi My article i wrote yesterday was put up for deletion and actually deleted before i got a chance to even protest the speedy deletion phaseKayleby (talk) 09:11, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kayleby, which was your article? NaturalSelection (talk) 16:06, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. In addition, your ability to edit your talk page has also been revoked. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.
