Revision as of 12:41, 11 July 2013


I'm a bit confused as to how answer the last question by this account. I read the checkuser block section, and it seems to indicate that a user cannot appeal. An administrator has to first question the block and then follow the process outlined in the section. Is that correct, or could the user simply e-mail an appeal to arbcom-appeals-en@lists.wikimedia.org? Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:11, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think in general, if an admin thinks the block is an error, he asks the CU (or other CU if needed), although that is very rare since CU blocks are made using information that the admin can not possibly have access to. Usually, the editor just needs to go directly to that email address or WP:BASC. Dennis Brown |  | © | WER 01:20, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In a situation such as this, I usually send users to WP:BASC, but there really isn't any ambiguity in the CU data (or much of the behavior) for this account. Cheers ​—DoRD (talk)​ 03:16, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, hope you a had a good breakfast. :-) --Bbb23 (talk) 16:48, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Talkback

User talk:Isaacsirup

Just some comments about him and the block. Arctic Kangaroo () 02:58, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, I have less doubt about the identification of this account than I have about what I'm going to eat for breakfast tomorrow. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 03:19, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I am currently reading Mango's LTA report. I will go check that user again, and tell you my rethinked opinion in a few minutes (just FYI). Arctic Kangaroo () 03:24, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Obvious troll, and one look at the diff and I'd consider it a  Looks like a duck to me. --Rschen7754 03:28, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Will rate the chances of being a sock as 30-70. He could be from India, as I see he edited many, many articles related to Indian celebrities before that. He probably came across the article, thought it was right and constructive, and reverted it, not knowing it was made by a sock. But as mentioned above, I'm still a little suspicious. Arctic Kangaroo () 03:32, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I can tell you this: He is most definitely not editing from India. However, for privacy reasons, I can't tell you much more other than that you are trying to make a judgement with less than half the information that I have available to me. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 03:44, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'm not asking further, but I will only say that I will believe the CheckUser, since he has more than 50% of the evidence that I have. Arctic Kangaroo () 03:53, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Checkuser request

Hey, DoRD! Could you assist me with the request I made of Alison at User talk:Alison#Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/DragoLink08? It seems she's too busy to respond. Following a block on a range belonging to USF, one of their network guys contacted me and we've been working to eliminate the disruption on their end. Per their request, I need to be able to pass along the IP used by the most recent sock puppet (Biggerandbetterthings) so they can take the next step. I'm not familiar with the correct procedure in obtaining this information but believe it is a valid request per Wikipedia:CheckUser#CheckUser and privacy policy #4, bullet point 2. Thanks! --auburnpilot talk 00:25, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I delayed answering because I've never had a request like this and I wanted a clarification of the policies. As it turns out, neither the latest sockpuppet, nor the possible sock, were editing from USF, so I doubt that the information would be useful to your contact. Cheers ​—DoRD (talk)​ 16:49, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Even delayed, your response is much appreciated and is more than I've received elsewhere. Thanks for taking the time to look into the issue! I will pass this along so USF is aware. Best, --auburnpilot talk 17:54, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pams Ale House

You recently blocked Pams Ale House (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) with a checkuser block. I just tagged Samesex Marriage78 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) as a suspected sock of PAH, but it appears that PAH is not the sock master. Can you take a look and change my tag as/if appropriate? Toddst1 (talk) 18:02, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I can't say at the moment, but these two are the same as several other troll accounts that have been blocked recently. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 18:33, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Another you?

Is the recently created DoRD2 (talk · contribs) an alternative account of yours? If not, and they don't put in a username change request within 24 hours, feel free to block them if no one else has. Daniel Case (talk) 14:50, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, it's just another trolling sockpuppet - blocked and globally locked now ;) ​—DoRD (talk)​ 14:58, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note about your protection

I see you protected the {{BannedMeansBanned}} template. May you create the sandbox so that editors can experiment? That would be a great help!! 216.11.222.26 (talk) 12:41, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
