Notice of noticeboard discussion

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Robert McClenon (talk) 07:51, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per the above discussion, your range 2A02:A210:BA9:9080::/64 has been blocked for 48 hours for abuse of our processes. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

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).

Request reason:

You could've accepted I'm new and may have misunderstood the rfc format instead of immediately blocking me for "misuse", I don't see where the issue is with the rfcs and the fact that you didn't clarify does not help and seems missplaced in a discussion that's supposed to assume good faith 2A02:A210:BA9:9080:B953:3521:CEB7:BBD8 (talk) 10:24, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The problem is the battleground approach—it's not an issue of formatting wikitext. Consider the extreme length along with gratuitous kicks at the end in these edits. Johnuniq (talk) 00:06, 12 October 2021 (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.

Sigh, I did not read the guide to appealing blocks, I'm not going to jump through hoops for this, adding 1 or 2 lines has already cost me more time of my life than I ever wanted it to cost.

You claim I did not read this:

Creating an RfC

Shortcuts

Open a new section at the bottom of the talk page of the article or project page that you are interested in. The section heading should begin with "RfC" or "Request for comment", for example "RfC on beak length" or "Request for comment on past or present tense for television series".
Choose a category and insert an {{rfc}} tag at the top of the new talk page section. The categories for the {{rfc}} tag are listed below; the category must be given in lower case.
- Example: {{rfc|econ}}
- See details below on the meanings of some of the categories. If no category seems to fit, pick the one that seems closest.
- If the RfC is relevant to two categories, include them both in the same {{rfc}} tag. For example: {{rfc|econ|bio}}
- Don't add two {{rfc}} tags in the same edit. If you want to start two RfCs on the same page, then read #Multiple simultaneous RfCs on one page first.
Include a brief, neutral statement of or question about the issue in the talk page section, immediately below the {{rfc}} tag. Sign the statement with either ~~~~ (name, time and date) or ~~~~~ (just the time and date). Failing to provide a time and date will cause Legobot to remove your discussion from the pages that notify interested editors of RfCs.
Publish the talk page. Now you're done. Legobot will take care of the rest, including posting the RfC in the proper RfC lists. It may take Legobot up to a day to list the RfC, so be patient.

I however have. If you have specific issues with how I did it, please point them out. As the page says, I'm supposed to make a statement of what the issue is and keep it as short as possible, which I have.

I wasn't talking about the technicalities; others would have helped with those, if that had been the problem. But the main thing about RfC's is that they're supposed to be neutrally worded — as you say, with a "brief, neutral statement". You used both the RfC format and the dispute resolution noticeboard to attack an opponent. That is abuse of process. Bishonen | tålk 11:59, 9 October 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Note for the reviewing admin: the range block above for 2A02:A210:BA9:9080:0:0:0:0/64 has expired, whereupon the user immediately started more disruption from it. See [1]. I have extended the rangeblock to a month. You may want to review that block instead? Compare also the user's comments, via several IPv4's (but it's the same individual, and not trying to hide), on this page. Bishonen | tålk 17:34, 11 October 2021 (UTC).[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
