User talk:Makaperqafe

I am user:Sulmues and created this account simply with the purpose of requesting an unblock of user:Sulmues. I clearly stated that this user ID pertains to the same person as user:Sulmues. The only reason why this user ID was created was because I have lost the password to both User:Sulmues and the email attached to it (See compromised account). Please unblock this ID. As soon as Sulmues gets unblocked after two weeks, I will ask that this becomes my new ID, but can someone please tell me where do I ask for that? Thank you! I understand that I got blocked as user:Sulmues for edit-warring and I apologize for that. I promise to no longer edit-war. In addition I will respect the 1RR ban applied. Hopefully someone will unblock user:sulmues and transfer to this new account all my edits. 16:17, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I find it hard to believe you forgot the password to the Sulmues' account after using it only six days ago. You'll also need to explain this account, which you created as well. Finally, please use the unblock template to request a review of your block.  TN X Man  17:26, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

Thoughts concerning this situation
I think you're over-complicating the situation. My advice is to: Or in other words, I'm unconvinced admin intervention is required. PhilKnight (talk) 19:36, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) wait 2 weeks,
 * 2) create a new account,
 * 3) put on the user page.


 * Well, that was actually my very first edit with this account. The second one was to notify that I had lost the password . I am not causing imminent, damage and disruption to Wikipedia and there is no likelihood of future problems. What is the block for then? There is a 6 months ban for 1RR on Balkans, which I intend to respect. What else can I do? Makaperqafe (talk) 19:44, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * See User talk:Sulmues. You need to have unblocked before you can do anything more than post here. If you can convince others of the accuracy of what happened, and of the sincerity of your assurances that you will not edit war again, then there is a possibility that you may be able to return to editing sooner. You have already served one week of a two-week block, and it is unfortunate that the block was reset, although it was ill-advised in the extreme to post beyond this talk page, because that has been construed as block evasion. If you think you can make a good case to request a review of the resetting of the current block on Sulmues, then you could make it here, with a request that it be copied to WP:ANI – although most folks are likely to prefer to avoid the ensuing drama. --RexxS (talk) 20:39, 22 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I am skeptical of the whole "I have forgotten my password" claim (particularly for an account that was used for 2+ years with 20k+ edits, and not used for only 6 days), and I suspect it to be a ploy to edit using an account with a clean block log. This user has expressed similar concerns about his block log and his desire to wipe it clean last time he got blocked .  I wonder, if this account is not unblocked, will the password for the Sulmues account be suddenly "found" two weeks from now when the block on Sulmues expires?

 * My password was a very complicated one and I kept it in a spreadsheet for security purposes, but I deleted that spreadsheet. I guess when Sulmues will be unblocked I'll do what Philknight suggests: open a new account, such as "Sulmuesi" and the Sulmues edits and Sulmues blocks will be transferred there?

 * A wise editor who is already aware of WP:EVADE and WP:SOCK would have simply waited out the period of their block, and THEN created a new account and linked it to the original. With Sulmes' history on Wikipedia, the above description is wholly unbelievable.  Forgetting an e-mail password and the Wikipedia password?  Seriously?

 * I'll just wait for a couple of weeks and then create a new account. Bwilkins I don't get your point: are you suggesting that I am not wise enough? Would you suggest that I act differently from what PhilKnight advised above? Makaperqafe (talk) 12:56, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
