Welcome![edit]

Hello, SittingDuck, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to The Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

IP block[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).

Request reason:

Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 2c0f:f4c0:13c0:222c:8ac1:3596:b6b9:fa8b. The ISP does some web hosting in the parent /36 - but it's only the block 2c0f:f4c0:1000::/42

Decline reason:

We can't undo this kind of block this way. The best thing I can advise you to do is either use different devices, perhaps somewhere you don't usually edit from, and/or apply for IP block exemption here. — Daniel Case (talk) 20:35, 27 November 2021 (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.

Thanks for looking, but no, I'm not going to battle the stupid bureaucracy. I'm going to tell everyone that wikipedia is full of lies and liars. Sitting Duck (talk) 10:58, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

November 2021[edit]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Vernon Coleman, you may be blocked from editing. MrEarlGray (talk) 14:48, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What an unfriendly attitude. I add perfectly good information, and the group of spammers who erased that information in the first place bring their sock puppets out to come and tell me to dot an I and cross a T that they know perfectly well I do not know what they are talking about. Even supplying the reference is not good enough. And then they report my IP address as well: bunch of regular heroes. This is why wikipedia is full of lies: so many full-time liars that know how to game the system. Sitting Duck (talk) 09:51, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No one can "report your IP address" as the general public does not have access to it if you are logged in. 331dot (talk) 10:00, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That is indeed the theory - but the fact that the protection of sacred propaganda coincides with the blocking of my ISP should not pass without comment. Sitting Duck (talk)
