Ok so you are saying the account is WP:compromised as someone else made the edit thus your account will not be unblocked.

Although I doubt you are telling the truth considering your account was created then was used to attempt to vandalise not even 5 minutes later. Lavalizard101 (talk) 13:53, 27 September 2021 (UTC)

I made an account whilst in school and a classmate did this edit, he was from the village the article was on and thought it would be funny. I'm looking to make meaningful contributions to historical articles in the future.

That's not what you said above. So were you lying then, or are you lying now? The edits were from this account. If you didn't make them, the account is compromised. If you did, you have lied about it. Which is it? 331dot (talk) 16:15, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

I just made an account so I could make some meaningful contributions to this website and my friend did something on my laptop and you guys feel the need to block me from editing indefinitely?
 * The edits came from this account, not another account. This means that you left your account unsecured, and as such we now no longer know for certain who is operating it. We must block it indefinitely to protect Wikipedia. I say again, were you lying before, or are you lying now? 331dot (talk) 20:19, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

I didn't lie, I can confirm this account is being used by the creator via email
 * Anyone can send an email saying this account is theirs. Does nothing.  You didn't answer my question.  In your first request you said someone else used this account, but now you say it was just your computer. Which is it? 331dot (talk) 08:03, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

somebody used this account via my laptop
 * Then that means this account is compromised and cannot be unblocked. We have no way to know who is sitting at the computer operating this account. There is nothing more to do here. Hopefully this experience is a life lesson for you, to keep your accounts secure. 331dot (talk) 12:45, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Why does wiki not have a system of confirming accounts?
 * There is no way to "confirm" an account in that we don't know that the person sitting at the computer at this moment is the same person who created the account. For all I know, you are the friend who took control of this account pretending to be you. Even if you find another Wikipedia user to visually see you log in to this account, that still doesn't change anything. It only means that you have the password now, not that you created the account. See WP:COMPROMISED for more information.  I may remove access to this talk page as there is nothing more to do here, given that this account is compromised. 331dot (talk) 08:15, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

All this shows me is that Wikipedia is a useless site run by people that still live with their parents, and have nothing better to do than try to be superior just because they spend all their time editing articles people don't read

It's not a popularity contest, only writing what people will commonly read. I know that instead of being honest you decided to lie and lash out with personal attacks, which is not permitted. I have removed access to this page. If you later decide to be honest, civil, and tell what constructive contributions you want to make, you may appeal as described above. 331dot (talk) 09:45, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

I received your email; you are welcome to appeal as described above. Someone else will review any appeal you make. 331dot (talk) 12:12, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
