Block Appeal
It's giving me errors when I attempt to put the link to ANI discussion into the appeal, so I'll just put it here. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=873867754 Ridiceo (talk) 12:23, 21 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Edit: I will also be deleting any unsolicited replies from non-administrators to this appeal. Ridiceo (talk) 11:53, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
 * The reason for this, is because another user, immediately after publishing my block appeal, decided to reply, encouraging Administrators to "check" if I'm another user, which is inappropriate for a block appeal, especially when making such statements without evidence clearly stating how that individual and I may be connected in some way. Such queries should be opened in WP:SPI (WITH EVIDENCE), not on user talk pages in response to a block appeal.. . It seems they want to rid of anyone that doesn't follow their POV, and are using me as a scapegoat to get rid of other users they disagree with. Ridiceo (talk) 12:03, 21 January 2019 (UTC)

Recently, another user, whilst completely disregarding my comment that I will be deleting any un-solicited replies on my talk page, decided to comment, saying that my claim to not using alternate accounts or IPs is "unlikely". They then railed on, saying that the "timing" of my unblock request is "suspicious" based on recent off-site viewpoint recruiting. I then deleted their comment and they proceeded to edit war on my own talk page, citing article talk page guidelines as a justification, when this is a User page, not an article talk page. The reason i submitted the request now is because of (the same user) using me as a scapegoat on the Gab talk page in this post against supposed POV pushers. They then repeated more unproven allegations against me, of which i couldn't defend myself on. Continuously, this user has commented on the contributor instead of the content, including me myself. It marks me unsurprised when the same two users who sought me permanently banned from the website are also the first two (non-administrators) to reply to my unblock request, posting content attacking me and content innapropriate for a comment on a user page (like asking an administrator to check if another user is a sock of mine). All this is despite the fact that these two users have zero say in the unblock request process. Since this is the case, then their only motive is to sow doubt between administrators or distract them with sockpuppet allegations in order to keep me permanently kicked off the site.

Unblock Request
Struck out this unblock request. Unblock requests may only be made by the account owner and it is deeply inappropriate for Tym Whittier to make one here. --Yamla (talk) 22:29, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

I'm a New Editor, have no "dog in this fight", randomly encountered Ridiceo while trying to edit the Article on "Gab", could not help but notice a gang of Leftist Editors pushing their ideological POV on that (and other) Articles. I realize I'm too new, too inexperienced and too volatile to fight this fight, against so many, more-experienced Editors so I moved away from the scene (Article on Gab) in order to gain more experience, knowledge of Wikipedia Policy and to preserve my account from becoming a casualty as well. Came back after about 2 months and discover Ridiceo is indefinitely blocked. He/She appears to be a casualty in an ideological war made by Leftists, meaning Socialists and Communists, that make a regular practice of censoring speech and non-approved ideas and getting people banned, blocked, deplatformed and censored as a means by which to perpetuate their ideology. They don't "win arguments", they destroy the opposition's ability to make arguments. In this case they use the bureaucracy of Wikipedia as a means by which to silence and deplatform dissent. One example is when a majority of the sources are Left, they argue in favor of the majority of the sources. And when the majority of the sources are "not Left", they attack the credibility and the reliability of the majority, and favor the Leftist minority source(s). It's right out of the Communist playbook, and it's perfectly obvious to anyone that cares to look. I believe Ridiceo to be a casualty, and one of many. However the biggest casualty is Wikipedia itself. Wikipedia has a serious credibility problem, and in the absence of a reliable and balanced source of information, people naturally turn to "fake news".

I have no desire to get too involved in this. I am here to "make a better encyclopedia" however my conscience compels me to make this one attempt on Ridiceo's behalf. I don't know this person IRL, I have never communicated with him/her outside Wikipedia, all my communications with Ridiceo are on "Talk" pages, etc... In short, I'm as neutral and unbiased a person as you could find (in terms of being some kind of "puppet"), and I think he/she should be unblocked for the reasons described above, plus whatever others there may be outside my awareness. I'm going to make this one appeal on Ridiceo's behalf, hit the "eject" button, and go back to slowly learning how to be a proficient Wikipedia Editor.

Also I apologise for probably violating Wikipedia Policy by using the "unblock request" template on someone else's behalf. That's probably wrong.Tym Whittier (talk) 20:04, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Pretty quick way to out your sockpuppet there. Wow.--Jorm (talk) 20:10, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Your reality bending ability is beyond impressive that your mind exists in another universe. Yes, the ☭KOMMUNIST CABAL☭ definitely exists, and I am its head lizard. Now pull out your laser gun and shoot me. Tsumikiria⧸ 🌹🌉 20:51, 10 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Strangely enough, Tym Whittier gets blocked for "Extended and wholly unacceptable personal attack against Yamla", and, whilst this block is right, these same administrators ignore personal attacks against me, including a user calling me "inconceivably disruptive",, lying about me "edit warring" as soon as I got autoconfirmed, misrepresenting what i had said or meant, and subtle attacks such as "I can almost expect their response to be "These are all unsubstantiated!". " and "It was excruciatingly frustrating to deal with this editor, so I was emotional at times." to belittle me and attack me. as well as several unsubstantiated allegations accusing me of being a sockpuppet account with no evidenceat all., as well as edit warring on my user talk page, which an administrator did not warn them for. And this is not to mention the several more unsubstantiated allegations on the Gab talk page, accusing me of breaking this rule or that rule, and attacking me, and accusing me of making an "attack page" on another user, which, after further discussion, I requested to have deleted afterwards. What did this "attack page" consist of? diffs of another user attacking me, of which I was planning to open a discussion on ANI. Whilst what Tym Whittier did was in violation of Wikipedia guidelines, and is unacceptable, so is unsubstantiated allegations of me being a "sock account" without evidence, and edit warring on my talk page, both of which no action was taken on.

Tym Whittier
Tym Whittier, I know you've been watching this page, so I want to get into contact with you, but I want to make sure its you. My email: usbcoblet@gmail.com My kik: Jaxus_ Discord: @Sanpe#0089 I'd prefer Discord. Thanks Ridiceo (talk) 21:58, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
 * email sent. Could not find you on Discord, which is good since I don't trust it for various reasons.  Have never used Kik, and wouldn't know how to start.Tym Whittier (talk) 21:38, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Yamla, I am confused. It states underneath WP:BLOCKBANDIFF that I can appeal the ban using the {unblock} template on my talk page, however it requires community consensus, and should be posted on an appropriate discussion board. Is it possible for you to do that? Ridiceo (talk) 19:44, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
 * You weren't asking to have your ban lifted, you were asking to have an admin lift your block. That's different. I won't copy your above request to the admin noticeboard but would consider copying a better thought out ban appeal. You'll find other admins also willing to do so. --Yamla (talk) 19:46, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
