[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page FinCon has been reverted.
Your edit here to FinCon was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://vimeo.com/149904710) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 16:08, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Request reason:
I haven't logged in to Wikipedia in years, and to my knowledge have only ever had this one account, which I barely attempted editing anything with. But apparently in 2018 I was blocked for having multiple accounts. Could I be unblocked? Jackieaz68 (talk) 23:51, 13 December 2022 (UTC)
Decline reason:
The SPI states that it is more for meatpuppetry than sock puppetry, as it appears you were recruited to a discussion. I'm guessing that you may not recall that from 2018, but you will need to tell us in another request what edits you will make, for starters. 331dot (talk) 01:03, 14 December 2022 (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.

Request reason:
The block reason I see says Abusing multiple accounts, but ok. I don't have any particular edits in mind to do on Wikipedia if that's what you're asking. I was just signing in again after seeing the Wikipedia donation appeals and thinking of trying to figure it out again and then saw I was blocked. Topics I know well are personal finance, real estate investing, and content creation. Jackieaz68 (talk) 03:18, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Please address your participation in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/FinCon (2nd nomination). How did you find the discussion? Do you intend to participate in deletion discussions again? signed, Rosguill talk 23:11, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:
I hope I am doing this right since I can't reply. I don't remember how I found a discussion on a topic I know well four years ago, but chances are someone in the FinCon group mentioned it. Here is everything I remember about my participation on Wikipedia: I signed up, tried to figure out how to use it, failed and got discouraged. I came back after a long time, was happy I figured out how to add a link about a conference I've attended many times, came back and saw it was deleted and got discouraged. I came back after a long time, found out I was blocked years ago, and got even more discouraged. But I tried to get unblocked because I don't see how I ever had multiple accounts and wanted to try contributing. Then I was told no, that's not it, your some kind of puppet, your request is denied. So I explained again and answered the question that was asked. And again, denied. At this point I really just want to have my account deleted. But...turns out I can't do that either. Because I'm blocked. This is really not a welcoming community. If it is possible for you to delete my account, please do that. Or at the very least please remove my personally identifying information that I no longer want on the internet. And in case that isn't a clear enough answer, no I do not intend to participate in deletion discussions. Unless you're talking about deleting my account. In which case, yes, I have just talked about it. Jackieaz68 (talk) 00:14, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
Decline reason:
OK, let me explain why your account was blocked in more detail. That deletion discussion was visited by numerous new accounts, none of whom seemed to be conversant with our content policies, all making pretty-much identical arguments. That kind of thing normally happens because of what we call off-wiki canvassing, and it's disruptive. It sounds like you're saying that's what happened - someone in the FinCon group (i.e. someone with a conflict of interest) mentioned it to you. Typically, all the accounts involved get blocked to stop the disruption. Moving onto your request, I'd actually be happy to unblock your account, if you were to agree to stay away from the FinCon subject area; however, this isn't really an unblock request - you're asking to have your account deleted. That isn't technically possible I'm afraid - accounts cannot be deleted. You haven't been clear about what personally identifying information it is that you want to have deleted - I don't see anything of that nature in your contributions, but I would be happy to delete that for you if you would be specific about what it is. I'm declining this request for now; please ping me if you respond asking for any deletion. Girth Summit (blether) 19:37, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

Request reason:
I would like to be unblocked and I agree to stay away from the FinCon subject area Jackieaz68 (talk) 22:44, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
Accept reason:
That's good enough for me - unblocking. Girth Summit (blether) 06:37, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
@Girth Summit: The personally identifying info is my username, which I understand cannot be changed to something else unless I am unblocked. Jackieaz68 (talk) 22:50, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- Oshwah - courtesy ping, since you made the block. The user has acknowledged that they were canvassed to !vote in the AfD, and is willing to accept a TBan from the FinCon subject area. I don't think they intended to do any harm, they just weren't' familiar with our processes, so I don't see any particular problem with an unblock that would allow them to request rename and dissociate their real name from this account - would you be alright with that? Cheers Girth Summit (blether) 06:23, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
- Girth Summit - If you want to unblock the user, go for it! You don't have to ask for my approval. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 00:57, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Oshwah. Jackieaz68, I've unblocked your account - you can start editing now if you wish, as discussed you just need to stay away from anything related to FinCon. This is what we call a topic ban; I've logged the restriction at WP:RESTRICT. If all you want is to get your username changed, the instructions are at WP:UNC.
