January 2019 edit
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Isis (goddess) a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 00:04, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
@ToBeFree: Okay, I'll try to avoid that in the future. Thanks. Libertarianmoderate (talk) 00:05, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Request reason:
I was just kidding about the assumed name part. Believe me, I'm not going to make that mistake again. Sockpuppeting actually hurt my chances of getting back on Wikipedia. What does that say about getting back on Wikivoyage? Seriously, with the features Wikipedia has, plus the MO they have on me, what good would that do? And clearly, I'm here to build an encyclopedia. Look at all the great work I've done! I know I have a problem with starting drama because I'm mildly autistic, but I'm getting help for it. Please, I've already lost WIkivoyage. Please don't take Wikipedia from me over something this stupid! Libertarianmoderate (talk) 14:41, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I have no wish to 'take Wikipedia' from anyone, but I also have a responsibility to protect Wikipedia from disruption. I (or any admin) would need to be assured that the disruption you caused will not recur, and I am not at this time. As such, you will need to remain blocked to protect Wikipedia from the potential of your disruption. If you make another unblock request, you will need to address the disruptive comments you have made(including your threat to sock) and tell what steps you will take to avoid causing drama. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 17:47, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
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.
- (Non-administrator comment) I'd like to hear a more detailed explanation than "I was just kidding" about Special:Diff/880720538 and Special:Diff/880720981. What will you do next? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:27, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
Apology #2 edit
@Doug Weller: Yes, I know I threatened to sockpuppet WV. That was wrong, and I apologize. From now on, I'll avoid everyone from my past at Wikivoyage if it's at all humanly possible. If you do let me back on, the next time I do something wrong, I'll leave without a fight. Libertarianmoderate (talk) 14:06, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Under the circumstances, I think the best course of action is for you to take the standard offer, and reapply in 6 months time. PhilKnight (talk) 06:38, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
