Socket puppet investigation

You are suspected of sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the notes for the suspect, then respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Marquis de la Eirron. Thank you.

Images

You need to be able to show where you're getting the images you are posting (including a link to the picture or the page that contains in) and how you know it is a free image. I went to the conservatives.com page for Francis Maude, and it does not have the image you posted, so it is impossible to verify your claim that it is free. If you don't provide the information, someone will nominate it for deletion, and it will be deleted. The same goes for all others without sufficient proof of availability. -Rrius (talk) 17:56, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • I got the images off Flickr by using the Creative Commons section at the end: http://flickr.com/search/advanced/. There by ensuring that the images that I was obtaining were legal and not copywrited as you will be able to see if you go on the Creative Commons section on Flickr.
    • You simply have not got the idea of image tagging. You tell us when the photo was taken and the camera used, neither of which is of much interest. But you do not tell us whence you obtained the image, which is vital. With the one image where you did give a source, File:Esther McVey3.jpg, the source on flickr was clearly marked "© All rights reserved by conservativeparty". I therefore suspect that all the other images by conservativeparty that you have uploaded are also copyvios. Please get your act together: only upload properly licensed images and give the source. If I see another image without source, I shall block you. — [[::User:RHaworth|RHaworth]] (talk · contribs) 18:39, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • If the image says "Some rights reserved by the conservativeparty" does that mean I am allowed to use it and with regard to showing the source where am I supposed toput it??

Better

I hate to tell you this because you have at least tried. But I believe that the licence on Riffkind at flickr is incompatible with the licence we use on Wikipedia as in File:Malcolm Rifkind.jpg. — [[::User:RHaworth|RHaworth]] (talk · contribs) 18:44, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • How will I know whether or not it is incompatible with Wikipedia or not??
    • You will have to do some research in the vast body of help pages here on Wikipedia! But I would say that of the six licence options offered by flickr:
      1. Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Creative Commons
      2. Attribution-NonCommercial Creative Commons
      3. Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs Creative Commons
      4. Attribution Creative Commons
      5. Attribution-ShareAlike Creative Commons
      6. Attribution-NoDerivs Creative Commons
only numbers 4 & 5 are compatible with Wikipedia. But don't take my word for it! — [[::User:RHaworth|RHaworth]] (talk · contribs) 18:58, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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).

Marquis de la Eirron (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

With regard to the sock puppet case, the articles that are mentioned are "The List of British Politicians who have crossed the Floor" and "List of Ethnic Minority British Politicians" are the articles I have created and spent along time finding the politicians and putting their details etc into the article so I don't see why I shouldn't be allowed to edit them using either of my profiles as its not affecting anyone else. However with regard to the images I know I got it wrong before but when I went on Flicker it clearly states that it has some copywright which I assumed meant that you were able to use those pictures as I clearly gave reference to where I got those pictures from. Also the reason why I created the new account as Comte de Mountstuart is because I wanted a fresh start on wiki to show to people that I was able to edit without being perceived as disruptive but once again even though I don't mean to do it, I some how end up causing a storm with the pictures and so I think i'll just give up with trying to upload images as it just ends up as a failure and gets me in trouble. But my edits are never intended to be disruptive, I just try to help and if you look at the article that are heavily used by me and my IP then you can see all the work that I have put into my Wiki pages to make them more interesting to read but I promise you this I shall NEVER try and upload an image again as there is to much aggravation for my taste.

Decline reason:

You do seem to have used a second account in an attempt to avoid scrutiny, and under the circumstances a week's block does not seem at all unreasonable. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:15, 25 November 2010 (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.

I actually didn't use it to avoid scrutiny I just wanted an account where I hadn't got in trouble on and I don't want the Marquis de la Eirron account anymore I want the Comte one thats the reason why I swapped in the first place!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marquis de la Eirron (talk • contribs) 15:07, 25 November 2010

I would suggest you take a look at Wikipedia:Clean start, which gives advice on exactly what you were trying to do. --Simple Bob (talk) 15:39, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
