User talk:Semichastny

December 2014
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule, as you did at Satyananda Saraswati. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Philg88 ♦talk 08:02, 8 December 2014 (UTC)


 * - could you advise which are the other accounts or IPs that Semichastny has used? PhilKnight (talk) 01:47, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi, There is an (unresolved) content dispute ongoing at Satyananda Saraswati. I originally blocked for edit warring after an edit made at 07:45 on 8 December 2014 in violation of 3RR. At 08:12 on the same day, user  picked up where  left off. As these were both SPAs the duck test indicated sock/meat puppetry and I implemented indef blocks. I have no problem with you unblocking if you consider my conclusion incorrect. Best,  Philg88 ♦talk 07:23, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi Philg88. Thanks for explaining. I've run a checkuser and the accounts are technically unrelated, however obviously they could be meat puppets. Thanks again, PhilKnight (talk) 07:38, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Second unblock request

 * Have you had an opportunity to read WP:VANDALISM yet? At a quick glance, the edits in question do not appear to be overt vandalism; please be aware that this term has a very specific definition here, and you would not be exempt from the normal dispute resolution process. I'd be willing to discuss an unblock with Mr. Phil, but the primary concern is that you'd jump straight back into an edit war. Could you indicate that you understand the distinction?

 * Hi there . Aside from the edit warring, there is currently a meat puppetry issue, which is investigating.  Philg88 ♦talk 17:08, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The meatpuppetry is clear and admitted, frankly. The question is, if unblocked would they both jump disruptively straight back into the edit war on that article? The responses above indicate that the answer would be "yes", in my opinion. The best option would probably be a topic ban, but I'm not sure if there's even interest in contributing to other topics, making all of this a waste of time. Kuru   (talk)  17:22, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, Philg88 posted at 17:08 (UTC), and Babakin007 admitted the meatpuppetry at 17:12 (UTC). Otherwise, I agree that based on the last unblock request, it seems likely that, if unblocked, Semichastny would continue edit warring. PhilKnight (talk) 19:03, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
