 * As the blocking admin of I'd point out that they were blocked from Melges 15 and Melges 24 and not sitewide blocked. As such both them and you should be able to edit any other page.


 * Based on what I read at Partial blocks:


 * "When applying a partial block with the autoblock option enabled, the IP address that the account was last using will be autoblocked with the same partial blocking restrictions as the account; any subsequent IP addresses the account tries to edit from that are within the partial block's restrictions will also be autoblocked, and with the same partial block. If a different non-exempt user account logs in from an autoblocked IP address and tries to edit within the partial block's restrictions, that account will also be autoblocked and with the same partial block. It does not affect their ability to edit pages outside of the partial block's restrictions"


 * It would appear that this editor was trying to edit one or both of those two pages. I'll leave it up to someone else to accept or deny the request. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 21:15, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I literally know more about these two boat designs than anyone who created those pages. They are being completely misrepresented by both the information and photographs. Forestglenn3730 (talk) 21:20, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The block was put in place because had a conflict of interest related to the topic - namely that they worked for the company - and seemed unable to stop that getting in the way of their editing. Given you're from the same IP address and say you "know more about these two boat designs than anyone who created those pages", it seems worth checking whether you also have some kind of connection to the topic.

 * As someone who obviously has a Conflict of interest you should not be editing the pages. Anyway, how do we know that you know anything about those boats. Any editor can make any claim they want. Are you the same editor as ? CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 22:34, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I have sailed both boats since they were first built in the 1993 and 2020. I happen to live where they were built. Forestglenn3730 (talk) 23:33, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * That's neither here nor there. Drmies (talk) 23:35, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I've driven several different Ski-Doo's and I live Canada where they are built. I've slept in an igloo that I helped build. But that doesn't make me an expert on either if these things. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 23:40, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
