Request reason:

What does "redirect without leaving a redirect" even mean? There is nothing wrong with the entry as far as I can see and certainly no reason to block me; how on earth would my history indicate I am spamming?

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. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 12:43, 5 April 2019 (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.

• Re: "redirect without leaving a redirect", I presume you refer to "Move [source page] over a redirect without leaving a redirect". What that means is the destination page was previously a redirect and the move replaced it with the source page (ie the source page was moved over it), and that no new redirect was made from the source page to the destination page.
