December 2015[edit]

Your recent editing history at Great Western Railway (train operating company) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at User talk:Keri, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Keri (talk) 17:21, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your comments are no longer welcome on my talk page, therefore do so else where please. Devonexpressbus 17:24, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you have been struggling with table formats on Great Western Railway (train operating company). Table formats aren't easy, so it's always wise to use the "Show preview" button to check your edit, and give you the chance to correct it if necessary, before you use "Save page". - David Biddulph (talk) 17:42, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

David BiddulphThanks for that ill remember it for next time!Devonexpressbus 17:57, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ANI[edit]

December 2015[edit]

Hello, I'm Liz. I noticed that you made a comment that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Edits like this are unacceptable. Please do not deride other editors like this again. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:40, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Apology[edit]

User:Berean_Hunter I would like to apologize for my actions recently. However the sockpuppet investigation was take out of hand, how can it be helped if I didn't notice I wasn't logged in? Devonexpressbus 15:04, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The problem wasn't that you weren't logged in, it's because you referred to those edits as being in support of your point of view. You've had several episodes of swearing at other users too when things aren't going your way. I've given you the benefit of the doubt for a while now but I've been unable to defend your recent behaviour. Cloudbound (talk) 21:49, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

talk Can you actually make up your mind one minute your supporting me, next minute your stabbing me in the back, your just as bad a me getting in a temper rage when idiot did stuff without asking nor understanding! Devonexpressbus 18:40, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm completely calm. I haven't stabbed you in the back. Cloudbound (talk) 22:34, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Virgin Trains East Coast[edit]

Do not use multiple IP addresses to vandalize Wikipedia. Such attempts to avoid detection or circumvent the blocking policy will not succeed. Keri (talk) 20:43, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keri I knew you where just a dumb troublemaker. How can I be editing that, when my IP address has been blocked from editing for 2 weeks, and this account permanently thanks to your lovely actions sweetie pie. So maybe you should stop taking out your problems on me and find somebody else. And this time I actually do have proof my IP address is blocked. " You are still able to view pages, but you are not currently able to edit, move, or create them. Editing from 86.174.199.201 has been blocked (disabled) by Berean Hunter for the following reason(s):" Secondly I was the user who put Sunderland railway station, so why would I be making an incorrect change to my own edit? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Virgin_Trains_East_Coast&diff=695388129&oldid=695388058 Devonexpressbus 20:47, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unblocking[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).

Devonexpressbus (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I understand what I did was wrong, and against Wikipedia terms of use. I promise not to do it again and will accept any worthy punishment.Devonexpressbus 20:58, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

Decline reason:

I don't think that ignorance of our terms of use would make it reasonable for you to think it is okay to pretend to be more than one person to get your way in a collaborative environment. Terms of use or not it is a dishonest thing to do and you must have known that at the time. That combined with your nasty tone leave me with no reason to unblock you.

I am glad you will accept the outcome because the outcome is that you are blocked indefinitely. You may consider trying the standard offer after 6 months of no editing here. HighInBC 21:24, 19 December 2015 (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.

This edit suggests otherwise. Keri (talk) 21:17, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keri Really Keri, well lets prove that wrong then. I suggest you use a IP tracker for the IP I have been blocked on, and then use it for the IP of the Virgin trains edit. Because you will actually find my IP is in Exeter, and the IP your having problems with is in Selby Yorkshire, so how can I be in Yorkshire if im in Exeter right now?Devonexpressbus 00:16, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Easy. Geolocation in the UK is notoriously unreliable: see User:Redrose64#Where am I?. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:37, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Let me see if I understand this correctly, your first story was "I understand what I did was wrong" and when that did not work you changed to saying it wasn't you? HighInBC 16:39, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:HighInBC No Im saying that the edits that Keri are accusing me of are not possible, because my IP has been blocked! That's 3 moderators that don't understand what I've been saying, how you got your jobs I don't know but I certainly wouldn't pay you a penny your useless, blocking people who make positive contributions and keeping people who fuck things around for the sake of point scoring its just ludicrous Devonexpressbus 19:17, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia has no moderators, and none of us are paid. Wikipedia has editors; and some of those editors have extra rights, such as the ability to block other editors. You were blocked by one of these admins, Berean Hunter (talk · contribs), who was appointed to become an admin as a direct result of this discussion.

I strongly suggest that you read: Help:I have been blocked; Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks; Wikipedia:Appealing a block; Wikipedia:Standard offer; and in particular Wikipedia:Civility. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:05, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unblocking[edit]

Devonexpressbus (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Unfair treatment, abused by moderators, when I have actually added positive contributions to pages where I have been allowed to do my own thing. Final application for unblocking, if not then I want this account to be removed.Devonexpressbus 00:17, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The treatment of you seems fair. And we don't delete user accounts. Max Semenik (talk) 09:44, 20 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

December 2015[edit]

Your ability to edit this talk page has been revoked as an administrator has identified your talk page edits as inappropriate and/or disruptive.

(block log • active blocks • global blocks • autoblocks • contribs • deleted contribs • abuse filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System. If the block is a CheckUser or Oversight block, was made by the Arbitration Committee or to enforce an arbitration decision (arbitration enforcement), or is unsuitable for public discussion you should appeal to the Arbitration Committee.
Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice.

Sockpuppet investigation[edit]

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Devonexpressbus, 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 Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia 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 Wikipedia community.
