User talk:Bill Sapperton
{unblock reviewed|1=I was blocked about 7 months ago by Alkivar for reasons unknown at the time. I was slightly belligerent because I believed the block to be unjust (I would rarely make edits myself and would just amuse myself by reading articles on cold fusion etc.) I continued to use wikipedia however as a reading resource, but when I noticed an innaccuracy I was not able to fix it. I recently discovered that my 14 year old step-son (13 at the time) had made a series of very innappropriate edits which rightfully earned my IP address an indefinite block. His online priveledges have now since been revoked. Temporarily. I now appeal to you, I wish to have my IP unblocked so that I can be productive member of the Wikipedia community once again. Thank you for your time.|decline=Your request for unblocking has been declined due to your history of vandalism and/or disruption to this encyclopedia.

{unblock|These aren't significant edits in the sense that I rewrote entire articles, but I did change some factual innaccuracies. When I see something that simply isn't true, I am going to be inclined to change it. With the Ja Rule article I simply removed 2 facts that were stated earlier in the paragraph. In the Tupac article, i removed the claim that a photograph taken of him was during his last moments alive rather than his last moments before getting shot. In the All Bout U article I removed all claims that Snoop Dogg was in the song when it was Dru Down that was rapping in a manner similar to Snoop Dogg(Changes similar to this can, and hopefully will be made in the All Eyez on Me article}}
NOTE TO REVIEWING ADMIN: I have restored the users work below, after an other user removed it. I have turned all images into links to the images due to WP:FAIRUSE. I have similarly commented off the image in the infobox for the same reason.עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:47, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'm unblocking. We have no way of knowing whether you are telling the truth or not about your son being the one who made the inappropriate edits back in June. I am glad to hear you have disciplined him, but please take the additional step of logging out when you are done editing: at least that way, if he misbehaves again, we'll be able to tell it wasn't you. In any case, the abuse was not so severe that we need to worry about unblocking you six months later. Obviously, though, further actions like that would lead to your being blocked again.
