Hello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to List of DVD authoring software—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Serols (talk) 15:50, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Untamed1910. I noticed that you recently removed content from Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at Vincent-Yves Boutin, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives/Reports, you may be blocked from editing. Untamed1910 (talk) 02:41, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives/Reports, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Mason (talk) 02:47, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked temporarily from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Ad Orientem (talk) 03:34, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Unblock

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:

Reduce the ban to 31 hours 1.2.177.113 (talk) 03:46, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

• the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
• the block is no longer necessary because you:
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. 331dot (talk) 07:49, 18 August 2024 (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.

Let's look at what we have here. We have two lazy, trollish and completely unserious unblock requests, clearly intended to annoy the Administrators and waste their time rather than to sincerely request an unblock. But, more than that, we have evidence that the anonymous editor knows exactly what they are doing. Upon being blocked for two weeks they say "Reduce the ban to 31 hours" which shows that they know that our typical short block is 31 hours. They have been here before! This is most likely a returning vandal who has had accounts or other IPs blocked. Do we care enough to do a checkuser? I don't know. I recommend to extend the block, maybe by 31 hours if you are feeling spicy, or by more if that is more appropriate, and to revoke TPA for the duration of the block. --DanielRigal (talk) 11:04, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be an open or anonymizing proxy, such as a VPN service. To prevent abuse, these proxies may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

If you are using an open proxy or VPN service, you will need to disable it or turn it off in order to edit Wikipedia.

If you believe you are not using an anonymizing proxy, the most likely cause is that another customer using your IP address who was previously assigned this IP address was running an open proxy. You may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the Unblock Ticket Request System.

More rarely, your network equipment or that of your service provider may be misconfigured or compromised by malicious software (such as a virus). For more information, see the WikiProject on Open Proxies.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using an open or anonymizing proxies in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.
