User talk:Swirlface

This user's face may be swirled beyond recognition. However, it is straightforward to reverse this transformation.

Banned users

Hi JPSwirlface, I see you have been tagging the userpages of a number of recently blocked users with {{banned}}. Technically these should be tagged as {{indefblocked}} since these users are indefinitely blocked, not banned. Thanks, Gwernol 00:54, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Its not that big a deal, but its a nice detail to get right. Thanks, Gwernol 00:55, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Roll back

Erm, why did you revert this? http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ATiptoety&diff=196415507&oldid=196415349

Heh, guess I was being a bit trigger happy with the old RC patrolling. Sorry. Swirlface (talk) 00:40, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Username

I use the {{DISPLAYTITLE}} magic word, specifically {{DISPLAYTITLE:{{#if:{{NAMESPACE}}|{{NAMESPACE}}:|}}{{lcfirst:{{PAGENAME}}}}}}. Good looks on the name change, and I hope you continue to contribute constructively. east.718 at 03:57, March 7, 2008

Unblock request

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

Request reason:

I've just got back from an extended weekend (which was great btw) and have found myself blocked. If this has anything to do with my newly acquired username I am more than happy to change it again, should this one also be deemed offensive

Decline reason:

It seems you have actually been blocked for sockpuppetry. I'll ask the blocking admin to comment. - auburnpilot talk 01:31, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Ah, I see this is a somewhat more serious allegation :( I do use a shared IP which has seen a few blocks as of late so I guess this sort of thing is unsurprising. I hope my contributions can convince you that I am nothing to do with this idiocy

Decline reason:

Per[1]. Please contact the arbcom if you wish to dispute the accuracy of Jpgordon's findings. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 09:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

To be honest, I'm not even going to dispute the findings, as it's extremely likely that a sockpuppeteer is sharing my IP, given its illustrious history of editing. I am disputing that the said sockpuppeteer is me. More to the point, even if I do have to start again and create a new account, how can I be sure that I won't get caught up in this sort of thing again. Incidentally, how do I contact the arbcom now that I'm blocked? I'd prefer not to register an email address is possible (ie if someone could post a request on my behalf), but of course if there is no other way then I shall.

Decline reason:

Per Rlevse below, let's let ArbCom sort this out. -MBK₀₀₄ 11:44, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Has anyone got in touch with the arbcom yet? If it's just a case of my being impatient, by all means ignore me! :)

Decline reason:

Question asked, question answered. Please contact an arbitrator directly to contest this block. You can find their contacts on WP:ARBCOM — Spartaz ^Humbug! 13:09, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I contacted them. They have not answered, which likely means they are not inclined to endorse unblocking you. — Rlevse • Talk • 12:45, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have personally emailed a request to Jimbo. Swirlface (talk) 15:43, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
