September 2018

Information icon Hello, I'm Newslinger. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, Jordan Belfort, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Newslinger talk 07:56, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Blocked

Based on your editing style, addition of copyrighted images to articles, articles edited, etc. it is obvious that you are abusing multiple accounts to avoid scrutiny. I've blocked this account indefinitely. Please make sure that you abide by the rules of Misplaced Pages:Sock puppetry. Magog the Ogre (tc) 18:49, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

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:

I don't have multiple accounts, and my edits are always there to help, so I've been unfairly blocked for pretty much no reason. So this is a bit like the whole burning witches thing, anyone can accuse anyone and have absolutely no evidence for it, great. I assume he thinks I'm a sock puppet because I uploaded an image which had previously been deleted, though I assume is a mistake because under Australian copyright laws the image is free to use, perhaps he has had a run in with the prior person who uploaded the image, in which case my reuploading it is entirely coincidental. Caltraser55 (talk) 01:31, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

A simple denial is not sufficient in sockpuppetry cases, as every sockpuppeteer denies doing so. You will need to specifically address why we think you are a sockpuppet if you are not(in this case, the reasons Magog the Ogre gives). 331dot (talk) 08:22, 2 January 2020 (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.

I only have the one Misplaced Pages account, two I didn't know you can be blocked for editing articles??
FYI, your request was reviewed and declined. If you want to make another request, you can, but I suggest you respond to the issues I brought up. It was fairly obvious based on these characteristics. Not only did you upload the same image, you have the same interests, edit summary style, userpage style, and disingenuous copyright tags on Commons. The circumstantial evidence was strong enough to block your account even without checkuser evidence. Magog the Ogre (tc) 16:22, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
I've unblocked your account based on Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Rogerduckling24. The circumstantial evidence was convincing but I guess I got it wrong. Magog the Ogre (tc) 19:11, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
Thankyou, these things do tend to happen but sometimes it is just coincidental. I did see when I uploaded the image that a previous one had been deleted but couldn't find any reasoning for it so assumed it must have been a mistake by a bot or something?

Sockpuppet investigation

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Misplaced Pages account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Rogerduckling24, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Misplaced Pages administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Misplaced Pages policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Misplaced Pages community.
