Request reason:

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=I think that an indefinite block was quite unwarranted. This was a first offence, and a warning or a short block would have sufficed to allow a "cooling off" period. This was an edit war that got out of hand (which I admitted), and that was all. I do not consider that I was being "abusive". I came clean and openly admitted that I had been using some old accounts of mine to "annoy" SouthernElectric, but that was all. The accounts that I used against SE had been dormant (you can check that), and I had not been operating in the fashion of a "sock-puppet" in terms of trying to manipulate or subvert an article towards my own view. I had been a productive editor, and until this incident, I had tried to behave. A warning and a short block was more appropriate. I admitted to being a multiple account user, and I explained why this was (in order to walk away from an edit war, perhaps I should have followed my past tactic, and done that before this got out of hand. I think you should reconsider your punishment of me, as an indefinite block for a first time offence, when I openly held up my hands is a bit OTT. As I said, a short block, to serve as a warning and to allow some "cooling off" was more what I would have expected. I can confirm that I am nothing whatsoever to do with Lucy-marie, and I have not tampered or interfered with any line templates. I promise to behave from now on. |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=I think that an indefinite block was quite unwarranted. This was a first offence, and a warning or a short block would have sufficed to allow a "cooling off" period.

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:
