Don't revert on other people's Talk pages

Per WP:OWNTALK, editors can remove messages from their own Talk page. It is not appropriate to revert that removal. Schazjmd (talk) 20:04, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

December 2019

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.

Request reason:

As of December 2019, 11th, my little brother was on my computer making disruptive edits. As seen before(earlier that same day) I had been making contributions to Wikipedia. The reason that I would like to be unblocked is that I am enthusiastic and willing to improve and make contributions to Wikipedia by making edits. Thank you for your attention.

Decline reason:

Thanks for letting us know. As per WP:COMPROMISED, this account is no longer eligible for unblock consideration. Yamla (talk) 17:13, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was making disruptive edits on purpose, but I promise that I will not do that again. As seen before(December 12th, 2019) I had been making some positive contributions to Wikipedia. The reason that I would like to be unblocked is that I am enthusiastic and willing to improve and make contributions to Wikipedia by making edits. I am really sorry about my behavior of vandalism, and I will not do that again.

Decline reason:

In essence, there is no reason to unblock this account, regardless of who is operating it. Assuming for the sake of argument that the "little brother" claim was a lie, I would need a more thorough explanation of just what you thought you were doing. And what you will differently. TBH, lying really isn't inspiring confidence in your future behavior. Also, as a side note, Draft:Poetic Text was deleted per WP:CSD#G12. Wikipedia is free content, so content copyrighted elsewhere cannot be copied into Wikipedia.-- Deepfriedokra 03:31, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi Iconman1, which of these two unblock requests contains a lie, and which contains the correct information? They seem to conflict with each other. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:30, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Dear ToBeFree, the one about the little brother is the one that contains a lie, which makes the most recent appeal correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iconman1 (talk • contribs) 17:33, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. An independent administrator (neither me nor Yamla) will have a look and accept or decline the request, probably within about 2 weeks. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:16, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Dear ToBeFree,sorry for my disruptive editing on both your talk page and other Wikipedia pages.

Block evasion

This user has violated WP:EVADE as Iconman001 in December, 2019. --Yamla (talk) 12:10, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

You have the ability to edit this talk page solely so you can request an unblock. If this is not your intention, I'll be happy to revoke talk page access. --Yamla (talk) 19:06, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

As you have blanked the declined unblock requests (as well as this note that you have evaded your block), I have revoked your talk page access. If your current unblock request is declined, this leaves you with WP:UTRS. In general, people who engage in block evasion are not generally considered eligible for unblock consideration for at least six months after their last edit. --Yamla (talk) 19:17, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Request reason:

Sorry about the disruptive editing last year, I promise that I will not commit disruptive editing again, and please give me a chance. (if I commit disruptive editing again, you can block me again, just give me a chance) Thank you.

Decline reason:

Since you have lied to us, evaded your block, and ignored instructions on this page regarding declined unblock requests, there is no reason to give you another chance. Your only pathway to being unblocked at this point is the Standard Offer(no edits or socking for six months), which you will have to use WP:UTRS to avail yourself of(not before July 16th). I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 19:47, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

UTRS

FWIW. Has unblock request on UTRS appeal #38551 --Deepfriedokra (talk) 19:45, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

Talk page access re-enabled. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:33, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Waiting for the unblock request

I'll probably accept your appeal, but please do add it publicly here first. You can now do so, as the access to your talk page has been re-enabled. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 09:23, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Unblock Request 12/17/2020

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

Iconman1 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

I have made disruptive editing last year, and I admit to all the things I have done. It has been one year since I was blocked, hence, I would like to propose the standard offer. I have not edited in any way on the English Wikipedia for one year, and I promise that I will no longer make disruptive edits / vandalism. I would like to be unblocked in order to help fix errors I catch while reading, and help make Wikipedia a better place. I will only make constructive edits from now on.

Accept reason:

Having complied with a standard offer and checked in with the blocking admin, I'm comfortable giving Iconman1 a second chance. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 19:45, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Note: May I delete all these messages in my talk page? I want to start fresh and not want people to judge me because I was blocked before :)

No, you may not. The whole point is that people should judge you based on your actions. Working in your favour is that I see no evidence of block evasion here, so the reviewing administrator may take that into account. --Yamla (talk) 18:24, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

• What sorts of edits do you intend to make if unblocked? _signed, Rosguill ^talk 23:08, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

I want to fight against vandalism (since I understood how damaging it is to WP and would like to change), improve on articles that I can, and eventually create my own article. Iconman1 (talk) 10:36, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi Rosguill, please do unblock the user. Thank you very much. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:35, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Dear ToBeFree, is creating a new account and using that considered block evasion?
