Request reason:

Wow, much has happened here on Wikipedia. Sorry I missed the party, but it seems like it has come to a close. I honestly don't know why you think I'm a sockpuppet, but we will get issues ironed out. First of all, I don't know who Cookie Monster is. My first article I edited was Alek Skarlatos, because he was in the news. I started editing trending things that need to be added. Skarlatos was one of them. I saw that Cookie Monster created this page, so I checked this user out. I usually jump from article to article and edit things that need editing. I wanted to be felt welcome to Wikipedia, and saw some administrator, MelanieN, from Cookie Monster's page, who I could get assistance from. The thing with the username you have mentioned. It's funny that Cookie Monster use to have the name agent in it, but I am not affiliated with the user. So sad that I missed the party, but I would truly like to help Wikipedia and edit, because I am much into journalism. I am not here to sock like you suggest I am. If you decline this appeal, that's fine. I just want to fix this huge misunderstanding. I hope you have a good day. Jesus bless you. Sincerely and best of wishes, IntelligenceAgent (talk) 05:15, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

There is a positive checkuser finding you've ignored. The behavior and article overlap makes this seem like a less-than-honest request. Kuru (talk) 11:30, 26 October 2015 (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.

Alright Kuru. Since this is a "less-than-honest" request, what does an honest request look like? :) also, could you please explain what checkuser is? Thank you, and may God bless you anyway. Sincerely and best regards, IntelligenceAgent (talk) 13:46, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A "checkuser" can see the IP address and other information used when you connect to Wikipedia. In this case, the implication is that you're editing from the same IP/location, editing the same articles and using the same speech patterns. There's no question that you're the same person, trying to avoid a block. Kuru (talk) 22:19, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Avoiding a block? I don't think so. CookieMonster was not blocked at the time this account was created or editing. Interesting that checkuser caught my act. I have been caught red handed. Well Kuru, Instead of fussing and crying over this, I will just not edit Wikipedia, if it is good for the both of us. What do you recommend in this situation? Thanks. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 23:31, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what to recommend. As you seem to have integrity problems, it may indeed be the case that editing here is not advisable. We'd never know when you're telling the truth. Kuru (talk) 23:39, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Integrity problems? That seems to be an arbitrary category you have listed me in. Yes Kuru, I did create this sock, but I retired the old account and started using this account. I have some questions to ask, and your free not to trust me at all, not even 1%. What was the specific policy I broke? It has to do something with a fresh start. I retired the old account, and started using this account. The old account did not have any current blocks. I started using this account, because my old account had a bad history of rudeness and a legal block. I wanted to be nice to Wikipedia editors, so I retired the old account, and started the new account, so I could be nice, and continue editing and improving Wikipedia. I guess I am not very nice anymore for breaking rules. I guess I violated fresh start? I hope you can answer some of these questions, and I truly want to iron things out, whether people trust me or not. So far it seems like I have lost all validity of trust. My actions got me in a huge mess, but I am wanting to iron these issues out, whether I get unblocked or not. I hope you have a wonderful day today. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:11, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I want to kindly ask you, if you don't mind. What is the purpose of editing Wikipedia? It is to improve it. I made some good edits, but they were reverted, just because I was blocked. Don't you think that is silly? I guess policy prohibits constructive edits to Wikipedia when the account is blocked. Just food for thought. Enjoy your day. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:14, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I was never here to harm Wikipedia, just to edit and have fun. I guess policy wants you to delete constructive pages made by a blocked user. That really does not benefit the readers. My constructive work has been reverted or nominated for deletion just because I was blocked. Also, no, keeping constructive work by a blocked user does not befit the users who read Wikipedia, nor does it "allow the sock to believe they got away with something and encouraging them to sock again" - blocking me does not want me to sock again, but Winkelvi thinks that keeping constructive work created by a blocked user is dangerous or encourages the sock to keep socking. Does that benefit Wikipedia readers in the end? I don't want to sound rude Kuru, but I just want to communicate nicely and drama free, unlike the last account I had. I hope you can communicate with me soon. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:21, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I realized that I should be focused on my bad actions and not other users such as the one I mentioned above. Please excuse me for that. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:23, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) You didn't retire the other account. You retired as a person in your edit summary on September 28: "this is my last edit to wikipedia forever, i am just replying to a comment one last time, bye bye wikipedia". Then just a few days later you created this account. You didn't disclose that you had another account. In fact, you lied about it. You said on your userpage that you used to have account in 2009. You even participated in the Wikipedia Adventure program, again acting like a newbie. In fact, just as an example, you edited Alek Skarlatos, the same article your previous account had edited recently and created. How about this edit summary at that article: "my first edit here on wikipedia- I added Skarlatos' education". You've done everything you could to avoid scrutiny until you got caught.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:27, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's a very interesting issue Bbb23. Actually, I did retire the other account, because I did not make a single edit with that account after I said that I would not use that account. BBB (Better Business Bureau), I don't want to start more conflicts. I want to iron issues out. I took the Wikipedia Adventure program because Wikipedia said to do it. You are absolutely right about avoiding scrutiny, I will not deny that. I just want a fresh start and It did not turn out the way I expected. My bad for not following rules. Could you please answer my questions above. I am really interested in seeing what polices govern that. Thank you, and hopefully we get things ironed out very soon. Have a bless day. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:54, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Bbb23 & Kuru or any other administrator who may read this: I abused my privileges here on Wikipedia. I created a sock puppet, and used it in a inappropriate way, which caused me to be blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia. I deserved what came to me. I know that you don't trust me, and I fully understand. I want to gain your trust again. I have decided, that I will not make any edits to Wikipedia as of today, 27 October 2015, for 6 months exactly. On 27 April 2015, I will make a unblock request with this account I am editing with right now, and an administrator will review my new behavior and attitude. You have all rights not to trust me or forgive me at this moment, but I will submit an unblock request in 6 months, to show that I have made no edits or sock puppets in the time period, and that I can be trusted again. I hope you can agree with this decision, and It was really sad of me to abuse privileges of editing such wonderful content. I hope to be back soon in April, and to gain trust and editing rights again. Until than, I wish you a farewell. God bless you. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:10, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Skarlatos for deletion

[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Skarlatos is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Skarlatos until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. -- WV 21:07, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please excuse me if I am not allowed to use user talk when I am blocked, but because I am blocked Winkelvi, you don't need to post a deletion discussion. You're the one who got me in the mess, but again, I need to talk about myself and not other editors behavior. I hope we can iron things out and get unblocked when we come to an agreement. Good day user Winkelvi, sincerely, IntelligenceAgent (talk) 13:53, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You got yourself in "the mess" when you created a sock account. -- WV 14:31, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's part of the truth Winkelvi. What do you recommend in this situation? IntelligenceAgent (talk) 23:31, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Kind of late for recommendations, isn't it? You're blocked and your block request has been denied. -- WV 23:49, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's never too late for recommendations, but that's really my opinion on the matter. IntelligenceAgent (talk) 00:04, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
