Unblock request (June 2019)
The best thing to do to avoid this sort of problem is to create an account(using WP:UAA if necessary) or wait it out but I am curious as to the reason for the block. Pinging. 331dot (talk) 13:05, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

If you "had a quick look through recent contributions from in this blocked range" and "did not notice any that were obviously disruptive" then you don't have much idea as to what is and what isn't considered disruptive. When I checked the editing history I immediately saw persistent edit-warring, and just a little more checking revealed significant violations of the policy on biographies of living persons, and also some other, more minor, problems, such as persistently adding unsourced content to articles. It is not an "excessively wide" range, as disruptive editing clearly from one person has occurred spread across the range. As for "a large amount of collateral damage", the substantial majority of recent edits from the range have been from disruptive editors, so the proportion of collateral damage is small. Of course any collateral damage, however small in quantity, is undesirable, but we have to weigh it against the benefits of a block. Having said all that, there is one aspect of the block that I am not so sure about, and that is its length. The edit-warring was restricted to a period of a couple of days, and other disruptive editing seems, as far as I can see, to be sporadic, interspersed amongst constructive edits, so I don't see any justification for a block of more than a few days. Since the block has now been in place for nine days, that means that I can't see any reason not to unblock, but I will allow more time to give, the blocking administrator, a chance to comment, in case she or he has justifications for such a long block that I haven't seen. I hope this can be settled one way or the other soon, and I hope you can be patient for a while. JamesBWatson (talk) 14:58, 30 June 2019 (UTC)


 * There was an IP hopping disruptive editor that moved to this range after disruptive editing on Special:Contributions/1.129.108.0/22. In retrospect, I agree the block should have been made shorter. I will unblock the range. Sasquatch t&#0124;c 18:52, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
