April 2024

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. 2003 LN6 16:04, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

thank you do much, I was wondering how to do that BenSmiththeGreat (talk) 16:04, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

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.

Request reason:

what is this?

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

• the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
• the block is no longer necessary because you
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Yamla (talk) 18:36, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

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.

Understand

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 will admit that I am "RainbowBambi," but I created this account because I found that my little sister had created that account falsely on my computer. I saw that she had been doing some very inappropriate trolling and vandalism, and also saw that she had been blocked. I created this account because I wanted to be able to edit Wikipedia, and since no one would let me explain this on my sister's account because I was blocked, I had to do this. I now understand that I should have went to the Admin Noticeboards, but I thought that the Admins would not believe me due to the seriousness of my sister's edits. Please understand that me and my sister are total opposites, and I am nothing like her. Please give me a second chance and a fresh start. Thanks,

Decline reason:

I am being completely honest with you

I understand your weariness due to the severity of my sister's edits and if I truly am a troll, I would use that excuse, but I am being completely sincere. Please understand my situation, and out of the kindness of your heart, give me a second chance. BenSmiththeGreat (talk) 18:51, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

• Comment: In no way could it reasonably be claimed that this reversion of constructive gf editing was "fighting vandalism." 31.50.193.158 (talk) 19:50, 25 April 2024 (UTC)

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

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

---

Request reason:

Please, I understand that my sister's actions were wrong, and I have changed my login passcode, but I also understand that as Wikipedia Admins, you must assume good faith. Please, I vow to never make a vandalous edit, and to this point, look at my previous edits. All previous edits have been legitimate and I have actually received 2 thanks from other editors. Please give me a second chance.

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2= Please, I understand that my sister's actions were wrong, and I have changed my login passcode, but I also understand that as Wikipedia Admins, you must assume good faith. Please, I vow to never make a vandalous edit, and to this point, look at my previous edits. All previous edits have been legitimate and I have actually received 2 thanks from other editors. Please give me a second chance.  |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1= Please, I understand that my sister's actions were wrong, and I have changed my login passcode, but I also understand that as Wikipedia Admins, you must assume good faith. Please, I vow to never make a vandalous edit, and to this point, look at my previous edits. All previous edits have been legitimate and I have actually received 2 thanks from other editors. Please give me a second chance.  |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1= Please, I understand that my sister's actions were wrong, and I have changed my login passcode, but I also understand that as Wikipedia Admins, you must assume good faith. Please, I vow to never make a vandalous edit, and to this point, look at my previous edits. All previous edits have been legitimate and I have actually received 2 thanks from other editors. Please give me a second chance.  |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}
