User talk:Olivierdb

Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

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).

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

Request reason:

My edits constitute a desire to improve the encyclopedia including discussion about self promotion and advertising done by real names. That discussion was done in good faith on my part and actual advertising taking place was already admitted in the particular case however the issue was much more complex than that one case. I was seemingly blocked and mocked as some sort of joke blocking admin writing evil laugh Mwuhahahahahaha! about the block itself.[2]

Decline reason:

Sockpuppetry allegations on your second day of editing certainly do not constitute a desire to improve the encyclopedia. — Kyриx 00:31, 18 May 2007 (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.

Even if this user is a sock, in the spirit that blocks are only made to prevent damage or harm to Wikipedia, and certainly not for amusement either, I think that comment was not appropriete on JzG's part. The more appropriete method I think would have been WP:RBI.--U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. 20:44, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't take offense by this. I acknowledge that it's regardless to any reason why the user should or shouldn't be unblocked, and I was only pointing that out in the spirt of non-punitive blocks.--U.S.A.U.S.A.U.S.A. 22:43, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
