 * I appreciate you taking the time to review my block &spades;PMC&spades;. Thanks! RUE4533 (talk) 17:06, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
 * No problem. Mild point for future reference, usually when you mention someone else in conversation you don't want to copy/paste their signature, as it can look confusingly like someone has signed the middle of a comment block. Normally you'd just type out their username, and if you want to ping them you can use one of the user link templates, formatted like this: or their username here@undefined . If you need anything, feel free to drop me a line on my talk page, I usually respond pretty fast. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 06:41, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Looks like this user didn't read Guide to appealing blocks, although in his defense, nobody ever pointed him to it. Hopefully the comments scattered around User talk:Bbb23 and Edit filter/False positives/Reports (sections JHHN8878 and WRRE4767) are enough to make sense of what this is about. To summarize, a constructive edit by this user triggered a hidden filter (commonly used to prevent long-term abuse), which he reported to false positives. I saw from checking the page's abuse logs that he had two accounts, and I wasn't sure whether to interpret this as an innocuous attempt to circumvent the filter or evidence of multiple socks belonging to an LTA, so I asked Bbb23 for advice. He said he wasn't aware that it was an LTA, and further discussion with filter managers at false positives confirmed this, but he blocked both of the accounts for sockpuppetry. I believe this block was erroneous, as this user never actually violated the sockpuppetry policy (which outlines specific disallowed uses for multiple accounts but doesn't forbid having them) and is entirely unnecessary, as blocks are designed to prevent disruption and this user has never done anything disruptive. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 20:57, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, RUE, while I don't expect that you'll to resort to sockpuppetry again, it is important for your chances of succeeding with this appeal that you clearly disavow using multiple accounts in the future; I suggest you edit your unblock request to that effect (and perhaps clean it up a little; it probably isn't necessary to copy-paste three other messages into it whole). —Compassionate727 (T·C) 02:39, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

A beer for you!

 * Thank you so much for all the help Compassionate727! I'm grateful that there are helpful people in the community like you. And thanks for the beer haha, cheers! RUE4533 (talk) 17:06, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Greetings Ratnahastin, I really appreciate you taking the time to review my article submission. I would love to improve the sources per your comment. I noticed that other musician articles use Allmusic, Discogs, and streaming service credits as sources. Is there a better source that is considered more reliable that I should cite for credits instead? Thank you. RUE4533 (talk) 15:37, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
