User talk:54.71.98.138

Hello, welcome to my talk page!

If you want to leave a message, please do it at the bottom, as a new section, for better formatting. You can do that by simply pressing the plus sign (+) or "new section" on the top of this page. And don't forget to sign your messages with four tildes, like this: ~~~~

Attention: I prefer to keep discussions unfragmented. If you leave a comment for me here, I will most likely respond to it on this same page—my talk page—as an effort to keep the entire conversation in one place. By the same token, if I leave a comment on your talk page, please respond to it there. Remember, we can use our watchlist to keep track of when responses are made. At the same time, feel free to send an alert to me on this page about a comment you have left elsewhere.

Thank you!

Unblock request 1[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).

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

Request reason:

The block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption: no evidence of damage or disruption; all edits in edit history are good faith improvements to the encyclopedia. Inadvertent misapplication of web host block policy: this IP 54.71.98.138 is not an open proxy; please request a check for an open proxy at WP:WikiProject on open proxies. Thank you. 54.71.98.138 (talk) 17:20, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This IP address (and indeed, others in this range) are being used by the blocked vandal, HughD (talk · contribs), and so are not eligible for unblock consideration. Yamla (talk) 19:44, 23 April 2017 (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.

Unblock request 2[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).

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

Request reason:

The block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption: no evidence of damage or disruption or block evasion or vandalism; all edits in edit history are good faith improvements to the encyclopedia. Misapplication of web host block policy: this IP 54.71.98.138 is not an open proxy; please request a check for an open proxy at WP:WikiProject on open proxies. Thank you. 54.71.98.138 (talk) 19:54, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This IP address (and indeed, others in this range) are being used by the blocked vandal, HughD (talk · contribs), and so are not eligible for unblock consideration. Bolding does not make your repeated unblock request any more likely to be accepted. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇} 22:45, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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.

HughD (talk · contribs), stop it. Enough. You know perfectly well you are to make an unblock request on your account page, or refrain from editing. While that account is blocked, you are not welcome here. --Yamla (talk) 20:01, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Respectfully request review by an uninvolved administrator. Thank you. 54.71.98.138 (talk) 20:03, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Jpgordon: Thank you for your response to this request. Please see Special:Contributions/54.71.98.138. What is the evidence of vandalism from this IP 54.71.98.138? What is the evidence of this IP 54.71.98.138 being used by a blocked user? Thank you in advance for your reply. 54.71.98.138 (talk) 16:05, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
