Hi there!
Hey I just noticed you started editing just a few days ago. Welcome aboard, it's always nice to see somebody from Sri Lanka or even somebody interested in Sri Lanka related topics over here. Please consider joining up with Wikiproject Sri Lanka if you haven't done so already (we don't really do much though). Cheers :) Chamal T•C 13:07, 20 February 2013 (UTC)
- Hey thanks, I'd like help improve the Sri lanka pages. I'm still learning about all the functionality of Wikipedia, if you have any suggestion that could help make better use of my time they are warmly welcome. Eng.Bandara (talk) 22:31, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Request reason:
I have been blocked indefinitely, because I have used my IP before I created this account. I reject that the other account is my 'master-sock', and I would like to get this account reinstated. If you go through my contribution, you will see that I have made a very positive and comprehensive contribution to the WP Sri lanka pages
Decline reason:
"I am not a sock" is not the argument to use to get unblocked. You were blocked as a result of a SPI/CU check; you'll need more convincing evidence to be unblocked. Please read WP:GAB before making further unblock requests. The Bushranger One ping only 08:29, 22 February 2013 (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.
- This is a checkuser-issued block; such blocks are generally unappealable. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 06:43, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Request reason:
I would like a second chance, I have demonstrated that I am a positive contribution to Wikipedia throughout a number of articles, this is evident from my contribution. I would hope you could unblock me straight away without the use of the standard offer, as I don't believe the 6 months is necessary in much in my situation. As I have been engaging with WP positively and constructively prior to my SPI. Wikipedia:Dispute_resolution_noticeboard#Syrian_civil_war
Decline reason:
No - the wait period in WP:OFFER is for a reason: by staying away from Wikipedia for a while, the blockee demonstrates that they can control themselves enough to follow our rules. You can't demonstrate your good faith by creating more socks, ever. Please come back in six months. Max Semenik (talk) 10:46, 23 February 2013 (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. 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.
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=Ok I accept that, however is there anyway for me to work out a plan to get this block wiped from my record in the future? In case I decide to apply for SysOps or any other position on wiki later, this will look bad. I was young when I had original socks, I have not committed any breach on this account in terms of editing recently. The distributor108 account blatant combative attitude, crude language, and severe abuse of other editors, this has largely subdued on this account. I have substantially changed my behavior and attitude and want a clean start. |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=Ok I accept that, however is there anyway for me to work out a plan to get this block wiped from my record in the future? In case I decide to apply for SysOps or any other position on wiki later, this will look bad.

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