It has appeared that I have been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
Before I submit a review request, I have some questions:

Who is the user you believe I am impersonating?

If I am still seen as guilty, can the IP address be unblocked, as I am not the only user of this IP address?

This username was created as a small joke I came up with when I was reading the article for Encyclopædia Britannica, this was stated on my User page. This accounts intention was never to impersonate anyone.

Either way, here is my new username request:

Thanks, Wikipaedia Internetica (talk) 18:50, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

Not sure what user is being impersonated here, I reported this account for promotional and shared use issues based on your userpage. (which was actually my second report of this account at WP:UAA, ). - FlightTime  ( open channel ) 19:05, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

This is not a shared account. This account only has one person. I worded my User page to look like a article about a fictional org under the same name. Sorry for the confusion. I also don't work for ROBLOX, so my requested edits are not COI's. I will stick to Upsidedown Keyboard, if you want. Wikipaedia Internetica (talk) 20:41, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

EDIT: I will be going somewhere, If I add a box stating that this article is a joke, and documents a fictional organization, may I continue my use of Wikipedia? I will read your responses when I get back. Thanks, Wikipaedia Internetica (talk) 19:13, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
 * This would most likely constitute vandalism. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) 20:01, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Alright then, I guess I will change my name and not do that fictional organization thing. Thanks for clearing it up, I guess. Wikipaedia Internetica (talk) 20:43, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
 * There is a humor template, but an Admin would need to examine whether it can be used here. ‡ Єl Cid, Єl Caɱ̩peador  ᐁT₳LKᐃ  20:45, 29 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Cool, thanks! Wikipaedia Internetica (talk) 20:49, 29 June 2017 (UTC)

RE: My block
I will accept the username "Upsidedown Keyboard". The template is in the section above this one.

CoI
Hi. Do you have a conflict of interest in regards to Draft:Mango Plumo? Chris Troutman ( talk ) 04:03, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
 * No, I do not have a WP:COI with Mango Plumo. I am the original drafter but another wikipedian decided to do most of the work while I was away for the summer. This user is User:Coin945. And about the declined draft: I really don't care. It was just a childhood favorite of mine, so I decided to write an article in my free time. I put it up on the WP:VG discord for editors to add their own knowledge. I understand that this type of article has been deleted twice (probably for lack of resources, since its a outdated game, that keep in mind I found in a random yard sale along with other discs.) Thank you, for contacting me, but I have no internal relations with the publishers of Mango Plumo. Upsidedown Keyboard (talk) 22:51, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Edit Help
Hi i made an edit request and you said you needed it from a x toy format, so here it goes. Could someone change the part where it says "Becoming the band's first album to top the Billboard 200, American Idiot sold over six million copies in the United States" to "Becoming the band's first album to top the Billboard 200, American Idiot sold over seven million copies in the United States. Could you change the certificate level of 6x platinum by the riaa, to 7x platinum as it states over hear, also where it says US:6,100,000 change it to 7,000,000. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.187.76.129 (talk) 00:28, 25 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Hello, please re-open your edit request on the talk page of the article in question. You also will need sources for your changes. Thanks, Upsidedown Keyboard (talk) 00:37, 25 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm not a sockpuppet of 5.43.185.132
I'm not a sockpuppet of 5.42.185.132! I was just reverting the edits made by that user because it seems that they have removed categories from many different articles! My IP address is 92.17.188.185, and you can check if you want! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oscar's Oasis (talk • contribs) 14:53, 25 December 2017 (UTC)

RfA
Hi. Thank you for your interest in the way our users become administrators. If you wish to continue to support the RfA process with your votes in the future, you will find WP:RFAV an interesting and useful read. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 21:26, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for noticing! Though for the most reason candidate i decided to retract my vote. I don't explicitly support him due to how recently he started editing, though I won't rule him out because of it. I'm just gonna see where it goes :) Upsidedown Keyboard (talk) 21:28, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Do read the linked help page - it will clear up those things you're still not sure of. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 06:56, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Questionable Article Award
I saw that a page on my watchlist (Fractional currency) was awarded the Questionable Article Award. While I have to problem with humorous article awards, I do have concerns about placing Template:Questionable on winning articles, as the award has nothing to do with article quality and is strictly humorous. - ZLEA <b style="color:#6B8E23">T</b><b style="color:#6B8E23">\</b><b style="color:#6B8E23">C</b> 01:23, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * While I can see how the top icon can be misunderstood for a quality award, like you have stated, the template is humorous and makes no guise of that fact. Upon clicking the icon it takes you to the page about the award, where one would find it is strictly humor. If you wish to elaborate on your concerns, I'm all ears. Upsidedown Keyboard Symbol question.svg (talk) 01:47, 21 October 2019 (UTC) Addendum: I would also like to mention that Template:Questionable is used to place awarded articles onto Category:Questionable, for quick access of articles given the award, instead of digging through the archives of the nominations. Upsidedown Keyboard Symbol question.svg (talk) 02:06, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * You might want to consider placing the template on the talk page. When the average reader sees Template:Good article and Template:Featured article on an article, they know that it is of good quality and reliability.  However, if that reader sees Template:Questionable on the article, they may not see that it is a strictly humorous award and may think that its quality and reliability are indeed questionable.  The average reader does not know to click on corner icons. - <b style="color:#6B8E23">ZLEA</b> <b style="color:#6B8E23">T</b><b style="color:#6B8E23">\</b><b style="color:#6B8E23">C</b> 13:07, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * A potential solution to this problem is to have the alt text to include a "(HUMOR)" tag. Would that work? Upsidedown Keyboard Symbol question.svg (talk) 13:22, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Possibly, but I believe it would be better if this remains an inside joke because of its potential to be misinterpreted by readers. If you want, we can open a request for comment at the WP:Village Pump. - <b style="color:#6B8E23">ZLEA</b> <b style="color:#6B8E23">T</b><b style="color:#6B8E23">\</b><b style="color:#6B8E23">C</b> 13:28, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * No, it's okay. I'll just the award notices to the talk pages instead. Cheers. Upsidedown Keyboard Symbol question.svg (talk) 13:56, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Thank you
hey upsidedown keyboard i just wanted to say thank you for being patient and responding and being respectful to all the people who requested or made edits on the bishop auckland page — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.213.186.249 (talk) 11:33, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Well, for me, it's a simple matter of efficiency. Spending time biting the newcomers is wasted time not spent on actual edits. Thanks for the compliment! Upsidedown Keyboard Twemoji12 1f920.svg (talk) 11:41, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, and apologies
The original History of Dundalk F.C. article was too big and split into two new articles History of Dundalk F.C. (1903–1965) and History of Dundalk F.C. (1966–present). The minor edits since have been style changes to avoid irrelevant info and repeat links - Apologies for not putting in better summaries. I went with a navbox instead of 'See also' in that context as the navbox contains all the relevant links in a more concise form. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sexitoni (talk • contribs)
 * Yeah, it's ok. I just checked and I accidentally reverted all your edits. Whoops. But yeah, in the future, add better edit summaries. Without much context, it looks like you blanked a section. Cheers. 14:21, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you again and a small suggestion
hey upsidedown keyboard, first of all i apologize for bothering you again. i noticed you made another improvement to the bishop auckland page with a more noticeable/prominent warning about jacksucksatlife. i wanted to thank you again for it however i thought maybe the grammar could be a little more formal in some places, like changing "our policy" to "Wikipedia's policies". i copied your edit source and put it on pastebin with the changes i thought of in case you think it would be useful. here it is: https://pastebin.com/scmt3k1Z if i made any mistake please let me know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.213.186.249 (talk) 22:23, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi again, I would like to say that Wikipedia is what contributors want it to be. The community itself created the policies found at WP:PG, and it is very much "our" policies. The message is written to anonymous contributors who may not be thoroughly familiar with the policies and guidelines the community has created, and the message is not from any one person in specific, but all established editors who might have to deal with vandalism on that page. Therefore, the usage of "our" is correct. I highly appreciate your enthusiasm, though, and I encourage you to register! Cheers, Upsidedown Keyboard Twemoji12 1f920.svg (talk) 22:37, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * ohh, thank you! i understand now. sorry for wasting your time and thank you for being so friendly and helpful! 190.213.186.249 (talk) 22:45, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * What? You aren't wasting my time. I enjoy what I do and getting a new editor on track to a good time on here is part of the job. Don't be sorry about it. Upsidedown Keyboard Twemoji12 1f920.svg (talk) 22:51, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Regarding, I edit conflicted with you in reverting the nonsense, and in the process inadvertently re-added the bot notice. Looks like whoever that Youtuber is has quite the devoted following wanting to promote him here. Home Lander (talk) 21:39, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
 * No worries, I knew that was probably the problem. The bot messed with me too, I had to manually undo instead of using TW. Upsidedown Keyboard Twemoji12 1f920.svg (talk) 21:40, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Hello, just so you are aware I amk fairly certain that the editor who removed the redirect is a sock of a long-term F1 disruptive editor. I'm just checking their other edits before approaching Admin. once more. Cheers. Eagleash (talk) 19:09, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Why are you telling me this? Upsidedown Keyboard (talk) 19:12, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Because you thanked me for the edit which reverted their latest disruption. Ignore me if you don't really have an interest in the page! Eagleash (talk) 19:22, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
 * You showed up in RCP as a possible problem edit. Gladly it was not a problem edit, so I thanked. Hope that clears up any confusion. Upsidedown Keyboard (talk) 19:55, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
