Request reason:

Will probably get ignored but I was blocked over a mistake stemming from what I think is a poor practice: editing anothers' post without their knowledge. An admin accused me of insulting someone over pronouns; I knew I hadn't insulted anyone for pronouns, and ctrl f'd for pronouns and saw nothing highlight. The admin doubled down and I doubled down taking my dog's name in vein. After posting that I want everyone to do ctrl fing, I saw that my post had been edited. I looked at the archives and saw that I had pointed out that a user was a socialist and had they pronouns (I only remembered pointing out that they were a socialist because that was most relevant to the argument). I also saw that I had called them he, which was an accident, and I moved to edit that and apologize. My edit only took a minute but immediately the post was locked. I then tried to issue an apology under the post but I saw I was blocked. So, I did screw up an accidently lie, and am therefore apologizing and asking for an unblock. I wish the admins had not blitzkrieg blocked me because I would have already apologized without prompting within like 2 minutes of making the error. I screwed up here but feel discussion was shut down with an extreme prejudice, so not even getting into the actual topic we were debating it lowers my opinion of Wikipedia's general health further beyond the object level-views I was engaging with.

Decline reason:

Hard to see how unblocking you would improve Wikipedia in any way. Yamla (talk) 18:41, 1 September 2021 (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.

To be very clear, while the nonsense about pronouns contributed to the block, the block was based in your overall behavior here, which is completely out of line with how this project operates. You registered your account today and in the handful of edits you've made since, you have already managed to edit war, POV-push without any policy-based arguments but rather based on your impressions of others, personally attack editors, and declare that practically everyone you've come across is an "activist" (while yourself indulging in long diatribes about socialism on unrelated articles) who is somehow prohibited from editing articles you choose based on your inaccurate readings of policy. Whether you're trolling or just have the completely wrong approach to editing a collaborative encyclopedia, I'm not entirely sure, but your comment just now about "taking my dog's name in vein" leads me to believe it's the former.
