Welcome

Hello, Slyfox4908, and Welcome to Wikipedia!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me at my talk page – I'm happy to help. Or, you can ask your question at the New contributors' help page.

Discretionary sanctions alerts, please read

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

What is the relevance of that comment? Slyfox4908 (talk) 01:31, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

August 2019

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. 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 ~~~~}}.  Bbb23 (talk) 00:12, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:Terry Bean for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you.

The statement above appears to be a boilerplate, pre-canned comment, one that does not apply to anything I am aware of. Could you explain its relevance? Slyfox4908 (talk) 01:30, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:

I have not been told what the reason for a block is. No one has discussed a complaint. Slyfox4908 (talk) 00:15, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Decline reason:

You've used multiple accounts for illegitimate reasons, including Aardvark231 (talk · contribs). It also seems possible that you're Frysay (talk · contribs)/Lurie2 (talk · contribs). NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 01:28, 21 August 2019 (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 comment above does not describe what the "illegitimate reasons" are. Slyfox4908 (talk) 01:34, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you at this time as this is a sockpuppetry and/or checkuser block. Check users have access to technical and personally identifying information they may not disclose openly on Wikipedia. Please read and heed the relevant sections of the WP:GAB. If this is not your original account, you will need to appeal at your original account. -- Dlohcierekim 03:22, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
