Hello, I'm Adakiko. I noticed that in this edit to Cheryl Buckley, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 21:32, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

• • Struck out own erroneous warning. Adakiko (talk) 21:35, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

@Adakiko: Check the edit history please... 47.227.95.73 (talk) 21:33, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

I clicked immediately after you reverted. I restored your revert. My apology! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 21:35, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm JPxG. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Backstreet Boys, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.jp×g 22:58, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

@JPxG: The change was sourced, I was actually reverting an Unsourced change to the article. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 23:01, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

@47.227.95.73: Apologies, will remove the warning. jp×g 23:04, 30 June 2022 (UTC)

Thanks !

Thanks ! for reverting vandalism from my talk page :-) STATZET (talk) 13:17, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

No problem, thank you for assisting with reverting vandalism on Wikipedia! 47.227.95.73 (talk) 13:19, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

question

What makes you think you have the right to determine the userboxes for everyone who uses this IP address huh? VERIFIED Cat in the Hat (talk) 19:45, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

@VERIFIED Cat in the Hat: I don't really know what you are asking, but I have every right to place these userboxes. If you are doing this just to "be annoying", please stop. It essentially amounts to vandalism. Thank you. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 20:08, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Also, I have filed a sockpuppet investigation against you, as you appear to be evading a previous block from last year. If you wish to defend yourself against the investigation, you are more than welcome to do so. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 20:14, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

A cookie for you!

I really wish I can thank IP editors, such as you, for making constructive edits. Again, thanks for your contributions! LPS and MLP Fan (Littlest Pet Shop and My Little Pony Fan) 11:40, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

@LPS and MLP Fan: Thank you! For the cookie and for helping rid Wikipedia of vandalism and disruptive editing. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 11:41, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Account?

Ever consider making an account? It would help you edit more pages (Semi-protected, extended confirmed protected,) and give you the ability to access WP:Beta features, and Twinkle. Because of these awards on this page, I strongly suggest that you become a fully-fledged user! CollectiveSolidarity (talk) 16:03, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

No big surprise, but I have already been asked many times, but the main reason is that I do not wish to gain many of the significant privileges that come with making an account (minus Rollback) primarily because I fear I may misuse them. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 16:05, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

@47.227.95.73 Don’t worry! As long as you hold yourself accountable for your mistakes, (And respond politely to the editors noticing them) you will eventually gain enough experience to use those permissions correctly. There are places where you can ask for help (I.e. WP:Help desk, WP:Teahouse,). And you can always enroll at the CVUA. or NPPS to gain valuable instruction. I’ve a few mistakes this week, and not once did users say I was incompetent. They just said that I needed more experience. Once again, I wholeheartedly suggest that you at least give it a shot. CollectiveSolidarity (talk) 17:26, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Hey there! Thanks again for your contributions! When I got on Wikipedia today, I saw that you reverted messages on my talk page that were revision-deleted. I’m grateful for that! I have no idea why I get messages so offensive/disruptive an admin has to remove them, all happening while I’m off-wiki.

LPS and MLP Fan (Littlest Pet Shop and My Little Pony Fan) 15:03, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

No problem! For some reason, vandals usually leave my talk page alone, even though I revert vandalism a lot. Pretty odd. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 15:26, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi. Thanks for dealing with all that shitstorm ([Jul 7, 2022, 12:33][Jul 7, 2022, 12:31][Jul 7, 2022, 12:25][Jul 7, 2022, 12:24][Jul 7, 2022, 12:24][Jul 7, 2022, 12:23][Jul 7, 2022, 12:22]) created by the WP:BKFIP, here is a kitten for you. Keep it up! (Btw, you can also use a HistoryHelper plugin to quickly link edits from the history pages on the talk pages.). Cheers! AXONOV (talk) ⚑ 19:09, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! (the history helper thing should help me too, especially in SPI's). 47.227.95.73 (talk) 22:01, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you for cleaning up the vandalism on my talk page! I am honestly surprised to find an IP address that have many barnstars and thanks from so many people! I am not going to be the first one to say this, but have you considered registering your account? Keep up the great work! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 13:23, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

@SunDawn: Thank you as well! That was the only edit of theirs that I could revert, since you easily beat me to all the others. Keep up the good work! 47.227.95.73 (talk) 13:25, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

	For your teamwork on the IP doing fast reverts, and for keeping a cool head. Cheers for the help. MaxnaCarta (talk) 12:49, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Thank you! And thanks for your assistance with that IP. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 12:49, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Welcome!

I've also accumulated several welcomes, fellow IP editor, so I figured I'd give one away. Maybe we should join forces and go around to the talk pages of registered users extolling the benefits of not having an account. Anyway, keep up the good work! Always nice to see other IPs trying to better our collective name! 199.208.172.35 (talk) 22:49, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

I love it, thanks for the kind message, and for helping rid Wikipedia of vandals. Perhaps we should do that. ;) Cheers, 47.227.95.73 (talk) 01:55, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

A Big Mac for you!

Do you like Big Macs? Eh, whatever... Thank you for cleaning up the vandalism on ANI. :) Best regards, Vukky TalkGuestbook 18:09, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind message! Regards, 47.227.95.73 (talk) 18:09, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Editor was repeatedly warned

On Bertlookslikebowler's talk page, you posted a message asking Bertlookslikebowler not to post a level 4 warning "unless in cases of egregious vandalism, or if said user already had been warned multiple times". It seems you must not have noticed that the user had been warned multiple times. JBW (talk) 18:35, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

@JBW: That user was given a level one warning once a year ago. A level 4 warning was still pretty excessive. 47.227.95.73 (talk) 19:45, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

age

Hello,

In [1], there is a source listed multiple times that has 88 as a victim's age. Please let me know if the change I made is acceptable. Thank you! 161.77.227.47 (talk) 23:06, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello 161! Thank you for bringing this up. If you can add the source you found in the article to your edit, you are more than welcome to re-add it. Thank you for contributing to this website! 47.227.95.73 (talk) 23:16, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Thank you!

You have quite the collection of kittens and barnstars here! Thank you for cleaning my page. Don't know what was with that guy... When I saw the orange bar, I thought I was being chastised for my comment on that IP's page. Instead, I found a nice barnstar! Thanks again and keep up the good work! Cheers Adakiko (talk) 12:19, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

No problem! Thank you for your kind words! 47.227.95.73 (talk) 12:22, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Unblock

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

47.227.95.73/Archives/2022 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

Why was I blocked? I am not a sock of anyone. I suspect you think I am CLCStudent, but I am not. He once reported me for believing that I was vandalizing, which resulted in me getting blocked. I have also been editing Wikipedia for over two years, long before CLC was blocked. I have also seen some of his socks, and they are all from Mundelein, Illinois. I am from Indianapolis. I have already been accused of being a CLC sock, see my talk page history.

Accept reason:

As per below, I placed this block in error, pasting the wrong IP address. You have my sincere apologies and should be able to edit now. Yamla (talk) 20:15, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

@Yamla: To put it briefly, I don't understand this block. If you have any private information to share, I believe I'm competent to review it. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 19:28, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

zzuuzz, you are indeed qualified to receive the private information. I'll email you in a couple of minutes. --Yamla (talk) 20:08, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

Actually, I'm just going to respond to this here. Based on checkuser data, I believed this was a particular blocked user operating from this address. I want to be clear, not CLCStudent but a different blocked user. At no point was I thinking "CLCStudent" here. However, looking back at the checkuser logs, what actually happened is that I copied and pasted the wrong IP address. I meant to block a very different address. I will immediately go and lift the block here. 47.227.95.73, you have my unreserved apology. I did not mean to block you and have no evidence that anything inappropriate is happening from this IP address. --Yamla (talk) 20:14, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
