Indefinite block for sockpuppetry edit

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

As per the above, creating User:Car1990 to continue editing is the final straw. Any new articles that you create with additional accounts will be immediately deleted and any edits you make will be reverted, regardless of their content. The only way you will be able to edit Wikipedia without this happening will be to appeal your block on this account and explain why you have consistently resorted to sockpuppetry when blocked.

Request reason:

I often update football season articles on a weekly basis which include teams from the La Liga, 2 Bundesliga for an example. i believe that unblocking this account i would therefore be able to contribute to wikipedia by updating these article on an weekly basis. i have therefore learnt by mistakes and therefore i have decided to only use this account in the future. i hope to be unblocked so i can continue my good work for wikipedia. (talk)

Decline reason:

Not good enough, I'm afraid. You have not addressed the multiple issues with your editing, and don't appear to understand why evading your block is not permitted. I'm not seeing any advantage to Wikipedia in lifting the block, and plenty of good reasons to keep it in place. Yunshui  12:08, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

This fails to address the reason why you were blocked prior to starting using sockpuppets. Will you stop creating articles with all the issues that you have been repeatedly asked to resolve? Number 57 11:56, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

I will stop using other sockpuppets and there will also try to fix the other articles which i have been asked to fix using this account. i therefore hope to be unblocked so that i am able to fix these issues. (talk)}}

Unblocking edit

Dear other Wikipedia editors, it would be so grateful if were to unblock my Rhodes Avenue account so that i will be able to contribute to Wikipedia by updating football season articles on a weekly basis. I will have therefore learnt from my mistakes in the past, so I will hopefully contribute to better articles in the future. I have therefore decided to delete my other accounts so that I can concentrate on only using this account. RhodesAvenue (talk) RhodesAvenue (talk) 00:31, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

You didn't decide to delete them. They were blocked because they were sockpuppets. Number 57 11:57, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

I will therefore decided to use only this account in the future to either update articles or to create new arcticles by only using this account. (talk)

It's too late to stop doing what you should not have done. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 12:10, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Sockpuppetry destroys the trust of the community. We cannot trust you to now go forward as if nothing had happened. At some point the door may reopen for you to gain our trust.
Please list all user accounts you have used as a first step. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 12:10, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I hopefully will be unblocked in the future so that i am able to update particular football articles on a weekly basis which will enable me to update the match results on these articles.I will stop using sockpuppet accounts and therefore concentrate on only using my RhodesAvnue account to update articles in the future.

Decline reason:

You've refused to accurately disclose all your sockpuppet accounts. You've falsely claimed to have deleted your other accounts when in fact this was forced upon you. You haven't explained why you decided to destroy the community's trust in you by setting up these accounts in the first place. No, it would be totally inappropriate to unblock you at this time. Your best chance is to refrain from all edits for at least six months and then apply under WP:SO. To be very, very clear, this means zero edits. Not "zero edits with this account", zero edits in total. Yamla (talk) 12:43, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I strongly agrre with the issues that i have been discused. i hope to be unblocked from this account so i am to edit football results on a weekly basis.I also hope to ask for help when it comes to putting in a refernce for a particluar article. I have learnt not to create sockpuppet accounts and tend not to create anymore in the near future. I have therefore asked if anyone else would be interested in putting in match results on the acticles which i have been editing while i am currently blocked.It would be much appreciated

Decline reason:

You still do not recognize the reason for your block. You were asked to list the account you had used, yet failed to do so. Also, asking editors to make edits for you via proxy while blocked is highly frowned on. RickinBaltimore (talk) 14:26, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Asking that others edit on your behalf while you are blocked, is a direct violation of WP:SOCK and WP:BLOCK. I'm disappointed; you explicitly claim to understand our policy on sockpuppets. As your unblock requests are going nowhere, I'm revoking talk page access. Another admin will be along shortly to review your block. If they decline your unblock request, you are free to request an unblock in six months, assuming you make zero edits in the meanwhile. You'll need to use WP:UTRS at that time. --Yamla (talk) 13:06, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Avoiding block edit

@Number 57: Unfortunately it seems likely that RhodesAvenue has created additional sock puppets to avoid the block. This includes Football 258 (talk · contribs) (interaction utility) and Chesterfieldlad (talk · contribs). I also suspect the IP's 86.152.248.51 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) (interaction utility) and 31.52.21.74 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) (interaction utility) are RhodesAvenue as well (also, both IP's are from Chesterfield, which was previously mentioned by one of the socks). S.A. Julio (talk) 15:12, 9 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

I've blocked Chesterfieldlad and Football 258 and reverted all their edits/deleted all their new articles. The IPs are probably him too, but perhaps worth asking someone like Bbb23 if a checkuser can be done. Number 57 15:22, 9 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Number 57: RhodesAvenue and all the already-blocked suspected socks are   Confirmed. I found no other accounts.   No comment with respect to IP address(es). Given the number of accounts, it would be appreciated if you would open an SPI. After you do, I can confirm everything for the record at the SPI (please ping me if you create a case). Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:16, 9 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Number 57: Alright, thanks again. Now it seems as though RhodesAvenue has created another sock, Apple2662 (talk · contribs) (interaction utility). S.A. Julio (talk) 06:54, 11 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Blocked. Going through and reverting all contributions from that block-evading sockpuppet. --Yamla (talk) 12:35, 11 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

The account Derbyshire1112 (talk · contribs) seems to be the latest sock they've created. S.A. Julio (talk) 17:49, 17 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Now blocked. RhodesAvenue: The more socks you create, the less likely it is that you'll ever be unblocked. Take the advice above and give it a rest for at least six months and then come back. At the moment you're almost certainly heading for a site ban and never being allowed to edit again. Number 57 18:09, 17 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
They've most likely continued with the account Coffee1990 (talk · contribs), should an SPI be opened at this point? S.A. Julio (talk) 23:16, 19 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Blocked, tagged, and reverted. The WP:CBAN procedures are likely to change in the near future. This user will almost certainly be banned once that happens, unless they immediately stop with the violations of WP:SOCK and WP:BLOCK. --Yamla (talk) 23:58, 19 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

And it continues with Bigboy1112 (talk · contribs). S.A. Julio (talk) 23:06, 21 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Blocked and all edits reverted. Seriously mate, give up – you're just wasting your own time now. Number 57 23:09, 21 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Now they've likely created the account Big1112 (talk · contribs). S.A. Julio (talk) 00:21, 24 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Blocked, reverted. --Yamla (talk) 00:52, 24 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

They are persistent, Football1112 (talk · contribs) seems likely to be the newest sock. S.A. Julio (talk) 17:13, 26 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

The newest sock is probably Newbold 07 (talk · contribs). It seems unlikely they will stop creating the sock puppets, should further action be taken? S.A. Julio (talk) 19:52, 3 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

New sock is RhodesAvenue1 (talk · contribs). S.A. Julio (talk) 18:27, 6 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Already blocked and reverted, looks like. Wikipedia's policies are about to change, at which point this user will be WP:CBAN'ed. --Yamla (talk) 19:32, 6 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Recent socks edit

I've just realised that CFC1990 (talk · contribs) is a RhodesAvenue sock (creating season articles with an identical sentence formula in the introduction), so have indef blocked them too. Number 57 23:19, 30 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of 2017–18 PFC Beroe Stara Zagora season edit

 

The article 2017–18 PFC Beroe Stara Zagora season has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:NSEASONS and WP:GNG

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Sockpuppet investigation edit

 

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/RhodesAvenue, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
