I’m locked out of my original account

[edit]

@Dreamy Jazz: I’m afraid I can’t take the actions you asked me to take, because I am locked out of my original account. I know users are supposed to their original accounts, but in this case I can’t. --Beautiful Pony (talk) 00:55, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Beautiful Pony, if you have forgotten the password, if you still have access to the email address registered to the account, you can go to Special:PasswordReset and fill out the information there. This will send a temporary password to your email address. You then use it to log in, and then set a new password. If you no longer have access to the email address you used, then it is not possible to reset the password for your older account User:How come why not.
If you have lost the password for User:How come why not and cannot reset it, then if you post an unblock here then it could be considered as an unblock for both accounts (so that you can use this account if your appeal is accepted).
If I have misunderstood you, and you still can log into User:How come why not, then you can either submit an appeal via the Wikipedia:Unblock Ticket Request System or if you don't want to use the form, I will consider re-enabling User:How come why not's talk page access. Using the unblock ticket request system is the preferred way, and is the only way to request an unblock when your talk page access has been disabled.
I would say that the block of this account is only because you are blocked on User:How come why not. I appreciate and see that this is a good faith effort to be unblocked and that you have waited many years to request another unblock. Therefore, if you want your talk page access re-enabled on User:How come why not, I will discuss with the other admins involved before. As long as they agree, I will allow talk page access again. If you want me to consider allowing talk page access, please post here saying so. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 10:47, 14 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Dreamy Jazz: The account, User:How come why not is compromised. The email address was removed from the account, and to this day, there is no email address associated with it. Later, the email address/account became defunct. Please drop the sockpuppetry allegations. Thank you. --Beautiful Pony (talk) 05:08, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Beautiful Pony, so you cannot access the account. Request an unblock here. The previous account will stay blocked as a comprised account.
The issue you will need to deal with is this account being blocked. To request an unblock, place {{unblock | reason=your reason here ~~~~}} under my message. Fill out the reason parameter (replacing "your reason here") with relevant information including when you think your previous account was comprised (so that your edits and the edits made by the hacker can be seperated). If you performed the reversions on Turtle-dove, then some kind of statement saying you won't edit war again, including saying you understand and will not violate the 3 revert rule and our policy on edit warring.
A note to the reviewing administrator: If the reviewing administrator wants to ask me about the block, feel free to email me. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 11:10, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock request

[edit]
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Request reason:

My account was compromised on 9 September 2016. All global activity is mine, unless changing passwords and removing email addresses counts as activity.

@Yamla and BethNaught: Sorry for emailing you inappropriately. I won’t misuse the email function again. I just wasn’t comfortable about using the UTRS, not that that excuses it.

Sorry for edit-warring. I have read and understand the edit war policy and promise not to do it again. And please understand that I am not, and never was, a vandal. When I changed the main image of Dinosaur, I was not trying to “prove” the point that birds are dinosaurs, but rather comply with the non-existent convention of using pictures of extant organisms (I believed in this convention because someone cited in in an edit summary, calling it WP:DINOSAUR).

And finally, back in 2016 I was a child and frequent vamper (I am referring to the act of using electronics when you’re supposed to be asleep). Now, I am more mature and have committed to avoiding vamping. —Beautiful Pony (talk) 11:04, 19 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. @SQL: All of How come why not’s edits are mine. And I plan to remove the link to Aether (classical element) on Frozen II, as it is not relevant. —Beautiful Pony (talk) 06:10, 29 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Accept reason:

This discussion is clearly going round in circles. However, I have reviewed the edits by How come why not and it looks to me like a young editor who didn't know when to stop, and was blocked to stop being repeatedly irritating. I don't see evidence of bad-faith or malice, and three and a half years is enough time for a youngster to grow up. So I am unblocking here, leaving the original account blocked. I would remind Beautiful Pony to read our policy on edit-warring carefully because if we require a block again, it will probably be indefinite.

Reblocked

[edit]
Stop icon
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You're clearly not here to build an encyclopedia: you're either trolling or you're attempting to promote sex with children and pedophiles editing Wikipedia as a "safe space". See https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Child_pornography&diff=prev&oldid=939240849 and https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3ARitchie333&type=revision&diff=939237223&oldid=939214974.
