User talk:Overweight and ugly

First tell me what your main account is. J.delanoy gabs adds 23:07, 16 May 2009 (UTC)


 * This is my only active account. Regarding your comment here, I was updating lists that somebody else had created, by running the same script on a copy of the XML dump from a few days ago.  I did stop unlinking dates as soon as I saw the message on my talk page.  All of my edits after that were simply to fix the formatting, and I left the date linking alone.
 * All right, fine. Tell me what your inactive accounts are. J.delanoy gabs adds  23:26, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I'd prefer not to share that information, as it's not relevant. Looking over this page I can understand what the concern is, but I believe I've already demonstrated good faith by changing my behavior after being notified.  I stopped unlinking dates as soon as I saw the message, and my last few edits were restricted to fixing date formatting issues.  I'll try to provide a better edit comment and to explain my actions on the talk pages for the various lists I have been updating with new data.  Please unblock me so that I can continue to perform this useful cleanup work.  I will continue to refrain from unlinking dates, as I did with my last four date-related edits following my warnings.

Please stop deleting the pages I have uploaded, and reverting my good-faith edits. I will re-edit the pages where I unlinked dates to restore the date linking but to keep the formatting corrections in place. Please restore the pages you deleted, as they contain useful information.


 * Even so, it's an inappropriate username, as it could be considered offensive. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 05:59, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Temporary injuction
Hello there. You might not be aware of this, but there is currently an injunction on linking or delinking dates without making substantial other changes to the article until the closure of the current Request for arbitration on dates. I shall be reverting your edits per that. NW ( Talk ) ( How am I doing? ) 22:43, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Stop. If you continue to link or delink dates, you will be blocked by an administrator for violating the temporary injunction. NW ( Talk ) ( How am I doing? ) 22:46, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, not much to add. You didn't stop, so... J.delanoy gabs adds  22:57, 16 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Regardless the user name is likely to be offensive and/or disruption to some. Nja 247 10:17, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

You're wasting your own time and ours by continuing to request reviews of this block without providing the information that administrators need to review it. If you continue to make unblock requests that avoid this question, we'll have to disable your ability to use this talk page simply to avoid the continued waste of administrator time. Right now, your behavior and comments are typical of someone who has created a new account to avoid a block on the old one, and that's what I am assuming is the case. Other administrators will probably have reached the same conclusion based on your comments so far. If that isn't the correct conclusion, this is probably your final opportunity to clarify the situation. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 16:50, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You continue to say things that imply this is not your only account. And it is obviously not your only account, or your editing would not have begun the way it began.  If you look at WP:SOCK you'll see there are legitimate uses for alternate accounts.  This account seems to have been created to make controversial edits in order to keep your main account out of trouble.  If that's not the case, we expect you to explain why you are operating multiple accounts and in what way that is consistent with the policy at WP:SOCK.  Three admins have told you this is relevant.  Three admins have said that your edits are not the only problem, it is also the apparent misuse of multiple accounts.  You need to address this issue if you want to be unblocked.
