Unsourced?

[edit]

Is there any relible source in the article Consonant mutation? What is the criteria on reliable source? Why do you remove Turkish addition edited by User:Gokberktalu (Orira (talk) 08:31, 23 November 2020 (UTC))[reply]

Grammar

[edit]

Hi. Just a heads up: The correct preposition after 'overview' is 'of' (Cambridge Dictionary). Happy New Year! 🙂 Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:34, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Removing citation needed tags

[edit]

Hello friend. Please be careful removing citation needed tags from controversial statements, as you did at Trail of Tears. diff. These statements were so controversial that somebody ended up deleting them after you removed the tag. So it is not good to delete the tag and make them seem uncontroversial. Thank you. –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:22, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your work on Authoritarianism. Tom Haws (talk) 18:47, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

More citations needed

[edit]

I can see that you've had other matters prominent since 25 January, but could you please confirm exactly what you wanted at TT Grandstand? Concern prompted by Primary? I didn't establish it but I have expanded it correctly (with more since the tagging). Looking at your worklist, changes were being made roughly every minute using utilities for speed (presumably), so I'm not able to second-guess your intention. Thanks.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 19:26, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah don't worry about that, I must have struck a nerve with someone. Good work on the article. I think it's sufficient enough to remove the tag now. ShelteredCook (talk) 23:58, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked as a sockpuppet

[edit]
Stop icon
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Ineedtostopforgetting per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ineedtostopforgetting. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  -- RoySmith (talk) 16:47, 12 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Well I'm not sure how to go about this considering it wasn't a behavioral block. It's a shame that I've been blocked as a suspected sock. I'm not INTSF, my account has existed prior to them even editing on Wikipedia. I took a long hiatus on this website before returning last year, changing my name in the process as it was made when I was relatively of a younger age, and wanted a fresh username. It may seem weird, but since there's an option to request a name change here, I thought why not? Anyway, I do want to continue editing on Wikipedia and it stinks that it had to come to this. How can I clear my name? ShelteredCook (talk) 02:55, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Decline reason:

This request does not adequately address the points raised at the SPI. 331dot (talk) 07:15, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Appeal

[edit]
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).

ShelteredCook (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

Apologies if my first block appeal was too brief. I'd try to address the issues further now but also trying avoid turning it into a wall of text.

Basically, I was accused of being a sock. The problem is I've been on Wikipedia way before this sockmaster (by up to 3 years in fact), and a CU check on me did not confirm nor establish my connection with the sockmaster. Eventually it just turned into hearsay and suspicion. I've made contributions on articles that the sockmaster has never made on the same article. By my luck, As I was making contributions on articles that was "in the area" of this specific sockmaster, it lead to an accusation that I was one of its sockpuppets. When RoySmith eventually blocked me, they themselves had also stated that and I quote "I'm not 100% convinced ShelteredCook is INTSF". Another user (DarkMatterMan4500) who has made SPIs against this specific sockmaster in the past wasn't also entirely convinced that I was INTSF. RoySmith did also state that "but there's no doubt they have more wiki experience than their edit history belies" (sic). Sure, that's true. For greater transparency, before I made my account, I've made contributions without an account (logged out, so just IPs) around 2013–2014, but on various articles that are unrelated here (mostly flims and music articles). Most of them were minor edits (correcting grammar and spelling errors). It wasn't done maliciously. I eventually created an account in 2015 but shortly after forgot about it, after all it's been so long ago as well. When I started to use this account eventually, this has only been the only place since where I've made contributions on Wikipedia (from mid 2020). But to make it clear, I have no connection with the sockmaster INTSF, and I'm pretty sure the person behind INSTF wasn't even on Wikipedia when I already was. (They only started to exist from 2019).

Decline reason:

I think that the SPI case is fairly convincing, and particularly note that several of the edits identified there are highly concerning even if we ignored the possibility of block evasion (particularly the ones with misleading edit summaries) signed, Rosguill talk 17:40, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
