User talk:HolyNetworkAdapter/Archive 1

I can't speak for the admin who blocked you but I think part of the reason for your block is that you spent all of your time working on your User pages. Only 6 out of your 82 edits were to articles so you really didn't make many "valid contributions". What articles would you like to work on if you were unblocked?

If you are just looking for a online location to make your own webpages, there are free websites and free blogs where you can do that. It's not an appropriate activity for Wikipedia. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 21:38, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

I was not trying to make a webpage, just an interesting concept for a userpage, I go through Special:Random a bit and find an article that needs fixing. So I just fix random articles, might have to join a WikiProject to find an interest. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:41, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

I'm also not sure why I even did this in the first place, me being stupid (as usual). Should have just kept my old userpage with the 50 userboxes, haha. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:45, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

Bumping, and removed the "final message" down below since I thought it was stupid. If I do get unblocked, I will not make the stupid, shitty mistake of focusing on my userpage 24/7 and instead return to making actual contributions to Wikipedia, thanks. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 23:52, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Oh, and for the articles that I will work on if you ask me are really I don't know haha, Might just use the homepage thing. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 00:12, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Sorry if I'm being annoying or anything, but can any administrator review my request and give me more information if the request is accepted or declined? Thanks. I have avoided editing from my IP address or creating a new account because that is considered block evasion. Probably should say that I will return to making legitimate edits to the website and not focusing on my userpage. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:15, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

Request reason:

Hi, I realize that I have been blocked because "I am not here to build an encyclopedia", I had a growing interest in 2009 style stuff, so I designed my userpage to look like an old Google page. However I did not realize this was against Wikipedia's rules (or something) and I had gotten blocked, I used this account to make valid contributions to Wikipedia (most of them minor edits to articles), if you see my past contributions you should see. If I do get unblocked I will make sure not to do this again. Thanks for reading and have a great day.

Update 08-31-2022: This will never happen again as I am satisfied with my current userpage, will actually make contributions again.

Update 09-02-2022: I have avoided editing from my IP address and creating a new account, it is block evasion and I would rather wait for an admin to view my request, As stated above, I will not focus on my userpage and make more contributive edits. For the pages I will be editing, I honestly don't know. I will most likely use the homepage feature, or this. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 23:53, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Decline reason:

There seems to be some sockpuppetry issues here. 331dot (talk) 10:37, 18 October 2022 (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.

Update on this whole show - I have read the What Wikipedia is not article, this will certainly not happen again. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:22, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

• What contributions do you wish to make? 331dot (talk) 16:30, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

  I will use the homepage feature that suggests me articles to improve. I also look around Wikipedia often for articles that have minor grammatical mistakes. Sorry for late reply. -- HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:47, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

  I had plans to fix Beechcraft King Air but the edits that I wanted to fix were reverted for being a non-notable source (and seems as it was fixed already) HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:52, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

  Update: I have found VMOS (software) and it looks like it needs to be improved greatly. Will improve it once unblocked HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 21:56, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

  @331dot: Please get back to me as soon as possible. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 11:05, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

  (Non-administrator comment) The only sockpuppetry issues here were an LTA troll pretending to be an admin by falsely responding to the unblock request. Magnatyrannus (talk | contribs) 10:56, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

  I have not done any sockpuppetry attempts on Wikipedia. I haven't even touched the account creation page even before i was blocked. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 10:58, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

(Reopening this because older unblock request got declined due to false sockpuppetry) Hi, I realize that I have been blocked because "I am not here to build an encyclopedia", I had a growing interest in 2009 style stuff, so I designed my userpage to look like an old Google page.

Accept reason:

I'm inclined to trust that you intend to spend more time contributing to Wikipedia articles going forward. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 00:12, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

P.S. I have not created an account since I have gotten blocked. This is my only sole wikipedia account. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 20:53, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

See above for things I would contribute to. --HolyNetworkAdapter (talk) 04:21, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
