A barnstar for you![edit]

The Original Barnstar
I have the page "TheOdd1sOut" on my watchlist, and also i've never used a barnstar before but man you did quite a lot to the TheOdd1sOut article. Anyway, see ya. MegaGoat (Talk) (Contribs) 17:29, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Sorry I took a couple of days to respond. R71B (talk) 03:19, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So since you seem to be online right now, I'm noting that you could use the template "userboxtop" and "userboxbottom" in between your userboxes. MegaGoat (Talk) (Contribs) 13:27, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I’ll do that! Thank you! R71B (talk) 13:28, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock request.[edit]

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).

R71B (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I was blocked for being a sock-puppet of my old account, WowSoCool112, which was blocked for violating the BLP policy on unreliable sources. I would like to be unblocked because although I do have a history of disruptive editing on my old account, I have changed. I have reviewed the BLP policy multiple times, and most, if not all, of the contributions on this new account have been helpful and good changes, as you can see by clicking here. Please consider giving me a second chance and unblocking my account, as I love editing on Wikipedia and I have changed. Thank you.

Decline reason:

No, obviously not. Every edit you made here was in violation of WP:EVADE and WP:SOCK. Every edit you made here was disruptive. You will not be rewarded for blatantly violating Wikipedia's policies. Yamla (talk) 16:03, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]


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.

Alright sure, but am I banned permanently or just temporarily? R71B (talk) 17:19, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, WP:EVADE says "...unless they can show that the changes are either verifiable or productive..." which my edits were. Only like 7 of my 480+ edits have been reverted, and that’s a pretty good ratio if you ask me. R71B (talk) 17:46, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You weren't editing on behalf of a blocked editor, you yourself are blocked. --Yamla (talk) 17:52, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alright sure. But since I’m never gonna get to suggest this since I’m banned, y’all should make a user box for your edit count that updates by itself, kinda like the "This user has been a Wikipedian for ___ years, ___ months, and ___ days" box, because it is a pain to go to my user page and change that every couple of edits I make, you know what I mean? R71B (talk) 18:12, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, how did you even find out? I thought I was doing a pretty good job of hiding it. Felt like I was the James Bond of editing against policy. R71B (talk) 18:25, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
