User talk:Random chap

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Random chap (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

Um- what the hell? This isn't an article about me, it's about a convicted murderer! "You have been blocked indefinitely as a sockpuppet of Hamish Ross" - wtf? All I've done is create one article which is perfectly legitimate, and now I'm not allowed to edit!!!

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.

Administrator use only:

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=Um- what the hell? This isn't an article about me, it's about a convicted murderer! "You have been [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] indefinitely''''' as a [[Wikipedia:Sock puppetry|sockpuppet]] of [[User:Hamish Ross|Hamish Ross]]" - wtf? All I've done is create one article which is perfectly legitimate, and now I'm not allowed to edit!!! |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=Um- what the hell? This isn't an article about me, it's about a convicted murderer! "You have been [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] indefinitely''''' as a [[Wikipedia:Sock puppetry|sockpuppet]] of [[User:Hamish Ross|Hamish Ross]]" - wtf? All I've done is create one article which is perfectly legitimate, and now I'm not allowed to edit!!! |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

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

{{unblock reviewed |1=Um- what the hell? This isn't an article about me, it's about a convicted murderer! "You have been [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] indefinitely''''' as a [[Wikipedia:Sock puppetry|sockpuppet]] of [[User:Hamish Ross|Hamish Ross]]" - wtf? All I've done is create one article which is perfectly legitimate, and now I'm not allowed to edit!!! |accept = accept reason here ~~~~}}

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.

Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Verifiability.

If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later.
