Request reason:
@Girth Summit, I already declared my connection with Solavirum and other users in my userpage. We are working on same project on Azerbaijani Wikipedia. If you look at our contributions in the Azerbaijani Wikipedia, you will see that we are not same person.--Nemoralis (talk) 07:41, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Per below. Maybe another checkuser might come by and review the evidence. — Daniel Case (talk) 06:23, 14 October 2023 (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.
- You are using the same computer, editing in the same subject areas, and sometimes restoring their edits. I cannot tell whether you are the same person or not, but per WP:MEAT, it doesn't matter. I am not going to lift this block. Girth Summit (blether) 08:45, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- No we don't use same computer @Girth Summit. I don't remember intentionally restoring edits made by Solavirum. If I did, it was most likely by random. Contrary to what the WP:MEAT says (
High-profile disputes on Wikipedia often bring new editors to the site
), I have been participating in discussions since 2021, ([1], [2]) the 1,5 year break between my edits is due to my military service. I created two articles with a total size of 200k+ bytes and currently working on third article, so I'm not here solely for some purpose. --Nemoralis (talk) 10:07, 13 October 2023 (UTC)- Well, you're certainly all on the same IP address, using the same sort of device, and editing about the same subjects. I am not going to unblock you, but another checkuser will review the evidence to address your request. Girth Summit (blether) 10:12, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yeap, that's what I see. --Yamla (talk) 10:36, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- I didn't say that we are not on same IP anyway. You may be right about the device, I looked at the devices we use and saw that they are both from the same brand, which is HP. (but we use different browsers) I have responded to your concerns on WP:MEAT and I already know that it is still my responsibility to restore edits even if they are random. So can anyone unblock me now? Nemoralis (talk) 11:54, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
- I've raised a thread at WP:AN concerning these blocks, asking for community input. Girth Summit (blether) 12:08, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- @Girth Summit sorry for ping. If I write a comment, can you move it to AN on my behalf?--Nemoralis (talk) 12:13, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yes - please do ping me when you do so, I will copy it across (unless someone gets to it before me - I expect that others will look at your talk page to see whether you have any response). Girth Summit (blether) 12:14, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

@Girth Summit thanks in advance, here you go:
Hello everyone. I acknowledge the concerns raised by Girth Summit and others regarding off-wiki coordination. However, I want to assure you that such a thing is out of the question. I've been volunteering for Wikimedia projects since 2017. I hold sysop and interface administrator rights in azwiki, filemover rights in commons, and autopatrolled (or autoreviewer) rights in various wikis. I am also against off-wiki coordination. As an admin in azwiki, I have initiated discussions about [[WP:GANG|such groups]] numerous times (I can provide links if needed). It's important to note that most of the articles at the top of the list (Editor Interaction Analyser / sigma.toolforge.org) are from 2019, a time when I only knew Solavirum from wikicamps and meetings.
Regarding my edits or restorations of the same articles as Solavirum: The Armenia-Azerbaijan topic isn't very broad, and many of these articles are already on my watchlist. It's highly probable that we will edit the same articles. I noticed [[Emblem of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic]] article on my watchlist, which is why I edited it (or more accurately, [[Special:Diff/1179379744|reverted the title change]]). I was unaware that Solavirum had done the same thing ~3 years ago. Regarding {{ill|Zouaves Paris|fr}}, I noticed this article in the [[:az:Şablon:Azərbaycanda terrorizm|"Terrorism in Azerbaijan" navigation box]] below while reading {{ill|Murder of Ziya Bunyadov|az|Ziya Bünyadovun qətli}}, an article I intend to create here. I was curious about the connection between [Zouaves] Paris and terrorism in Azerbaijan. Thus, I discovered information about this group's involvement in the [[Second Nagorno-Karabakh War]] and decided to include it in the article here.
Lastly, I want to express my disappointment that some users believe Solavirum is using me as a meatpuppet. I've been on Wikip(m)edia for a long time (~7 years) and during this time, it's quite normal for me to form my own opinions (which may coincide with others). In the course of my contributions here, I've created [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Nemoralis&oldid=1179038538#Articles_I've_created two articles with a total size of over 200k bytes] and am currently working on a [[User:Nemoralis/sandbox|third article]], which I was planning to nominate to [[WP:DYK|DYK]] for a fact in the article. I want to say again that I'm not here solely for some purpose, as outlined by [[WP:MEAT]]. Thanks in advance. Regards,

Administrator changes
Guideline and policy news
