Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles as you apparently did to List of recurring characters in The Suite Life on Deck. Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. AussieLegend (talk) 12:54, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

ANI

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 22:33, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Your notification to me

You are not required to notify me that you have responded to my comment. Only the person being reported at AN/I -- you -- is required to be notified by the person initiating the report -- in this case, User:Dougweller.

A word to the wise: it's clear from your behavior and your comments that you really have absolutely no idea how Wikipedia works, or what its policies are. If you're interested in sticking around and contributing to the encyclopedia, you're really starting off on entirely the wrong foot. The best thing would be to do a little more listening and a lot less assuming and proclaiming about things you don't understand. Edit quietly and productively and learn how things work and what's expected from the material accepted into our articles, and you'll be fine. Keep on as you are, and I can predict with near certainty that you'll be blocked from editing -- maybe not immediately, but at some point soon.

That's my advice, do with it what you will. Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:04, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Official Notification

Please read WP:SOCK and WP:EVADE. Based on your understanding of those two policies, you will need to correct your behaviour and improve on your statements on WP:ANI. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:30, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Let me clarify something here: using multiple accounts the way that you have been is contrary to the policy on the use of alternate accounts. You must choose one and only one. The other must be blocked. If you continue to edit from both accounts, then both accounts will be blocked. If you choose to create any more accounts, they will be blocked as per WP:EVADE, and your primary account will be blocked indefinitely. Time to start making serious choices.

Please explain

Please explain this edit on the ANI discussion.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for continuing to switch accounts abusively, as this name and as Nate5713. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|Your reason here}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Request reason:

I prepared a speech, but seeing that I have a limited audience I will be brief. I never intended, nor do I have a memory of, using two accounts to my advantage or disadvantage. However, in order to regain my editing ability, I will, for now on, only use the account of Nate2357. I am sure that I can be of some benefit to Wikipedia, but what is itching at me right now is that the article Ancestry of Jesus is now fully protected, so I must get there to open a discussion. That is just one of the many ways, I'm sure, I can at Service to this Encyclopedia.Nate2357 (talk) 18:37, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Decline reason:

A speech is quite unnecessary, however some honesty would be appreciated. I've just run a checkuser on your account, and have  Confirmed that User:Nate5713 and User:Kelismyhero have both edited from the computer you're currently using; in the case of the other Nate, you both edit similar topics and exhibit similar behavior; for example, using THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION rather than the {{underconstruction}} tag (this account other account).

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.

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Request reason:

I will get strait to the point: Yes, I am both Nate5713 and Nate2357, the numerals are all sequential prime numbers. I was never hiding anything, I was always freely telling people who I was. I was under the (naiive) impression that as long as I never used my two accounts to my advantage, I was not sockpuppetting. If that was in fact a wrong impression and that the very nature of having two accounts is illegal, then I very eagerly promise to only use the account of Nate2357. The account, "Kel is my hero" was created by my sister, but of course I understand that that is no excuse, so I promise not to use her account either. After I settle the whole Ancestry of Jesus thing, I was intending to check the debate on Biblical longevity, to see which side followed the policy better. After that, I was intending on adding references to the article Peleg, from scientific papers and a couple of interesting books. I have always intended on making Wikipedia better, not worse.--Nate2357 (talk) 20:41, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks.

• 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.

There are a very limited number of reasons why someone would be allowed to use more than once account, all listed at WP:SOCK#LEGIT. From what I can see, none of them apply here. On the contrary, you've had a number of users asking you to stop using two accounts and you didn't. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 20:45, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Very well, then. I was in the wrong by having multiple accounts and I apologize. The reason that seems to fit closest to my situation is a compromised account, though slightly different. I lost my password, but Firefox automatically remembers my password for one computer. Whenever I use (or "used" as the case may arise) a different computer, I was forced to use a different account where I remembered the password. Whenever I use my regular computer, however, I Firefox remembers the old password and I use(d) that. Since, as you say, that is not a legitimate reason, then I guess I was in the wrong after all.--Nate2357 (talk) 21:07, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
