You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia.

Request reason:

It appears the main reason for the block was due to the suspicion that I am a troll, or that I am here just to disrupt the project. I assure you that I am not. I don’t see how any of my behavior constitutes as disruptive or libelous, but I am willing to explain every action in detail. I am new to Wikipedia and I still don’t understand everything, so apologies in advance for my lack of general knowledge. LittleFinn9 (talk) 16:44, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Your contributions consist exclusively of comments on user talk pages. It's curious as to how you came to find them in the first place and you asked some curious questions for a new contributor. However, if you are here to contribute to building this encyclopedia, please describe the contributions you wish to make. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 17:03, 12 January 2022 (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.

I found them by just browsing. I haven’t made any contributions to articles as I am waiting to be adopted by a senior editor, one that is willing to educate me on how to contribute correctly. Clearly, this situation signifies my current inability to contribute properly. I’m not sure what you mean by “curious questions”, I’m pretty sure the only question I asked was asking another user (playfully) if I could borrow some of their userboxes. If you are wondering how I had this prior knowledge of userboxes, I had already done some reading on userpages and userboxes(WP:UP and WP:UBX respectively) and was excited to make a page that could represent what exactly I intended on contributing. Specifically, I plan on adding information to articles on Manga and Anime that I have been watching. Obviously I haven’t reached a level of expertise to do so, but I plan on becoming a successful contributor to that project specifically. LittleFinn9 (talk) 17:16, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

You asked me how I was doing, checking in on me as if you knew me. What was I supposed to think on that? Because I started suspecting you were a sockpuppet--CreecregofLife (talk) 17:45, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
I absolutely understand your suspicion. As I already stated on Ponyo’s talk page, I simply wanted to know how you were doing. I do not know you as a person. I apologize for that comment and I will not do it again. However, I am here, and I assure you that if I was a sockpuppet I would be blocked for specifically that reason. LittleFinn9 (talk) 17:52, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
I think your methods might have been a little off. You came on a bit contextlessly. It’s possible if you had introduced and explained yourself first I might have been more welcoming and open to answering--CreecregofLife (talk) 18:03, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
I completely agree. It was completely out of line. Again, I apologize. However, I don’t think it constitutes an indefinite block on my account. I also don’t know how to format this message so it comes below yours, so I apologize for the confusion.LittleFinn9 (talk) 18:20, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

@331dot: As I have stated above- to answer your question, I intend on contributing to the Manga and Anime WikiProject, as well as contributing to new articles of any sort. *LittleFinn9* (talk) 19:38, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

You may make another unblock request. 331dot (talk) 19:55, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
And so you know going forward, it’s the little colons that we add in front of our comments that indent replies.--CreecregofLife (talk) 20:04, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the info. And yes, I will make another request.LittleFinn9 (talk) 20:21, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I believe I have thoroughly explained my actions and intentions thus far, which have not broken any rules or infringed upon any policy. While I understand how it could be misconstrued, I have done all that I can to prove my intentions as honest and constructive. I am open to any further questions. *LittleFinn9* (talk) 21:28, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

I'm not buying it. You don't seem to see any significant concerns with your edits, but several admins (including, now, me) have told you there are significant concerns with your edits. Yamla (talk) 10:29, 13 January 2022 (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.

Let's go through your edits chronologically before the block:

  1. You posted a Happy New Year message to an administrator's Talk page.
  2. You responsed to a post made in 2009 on the Talk page of a user who hasn't edited since 2008.
  3. You asked if you could borrow userboxes from an editor who hasn't edited since 2013.
  4. As noted above, you asked CreecregofLife how they were because you thought they were under pressure.

I don't believe anything you say in defense of your conduct.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:17, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

What about my aforementioned actions and conduct constitutes as "trolling"? *LittleFinn9* (talk) 01:21, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

This is just silly. I came to Wikipedia to contribute knowledge to subjects that I liked. Now I am here, arguing with admins whether or not 5 undisruptive comments on talk pages constitutes as trolling. It feels like you’re implying I’m something much worse than I actually am. Like I already asked(to no avail), what about those comments specifically indicates my intention(or ability) to troll? What or whom is my victim? Are new users not allowed to post on talk pages? I ask, because I have absolutely no idea how to resolve this otherwise. All I can ascertain from the assumptions you’ve made is that you think my edits signify some kind of previous involvement with these users? But... what? Why would a new user(I assume a checkuser has already verified that my IP is unique) have a quarrel with a user that hasn’t logged on for years? Because I am literally just a new user who was browsing through contributors on random pages. The first thing I did was visit the page of an inspiration to me(Ser Amantio). I didn’t even know he was an admin. So I said hi. I found a random user(forget how) and learned how to view the history of the page. Did I pay attention to the dates? No. Because, honestly, it didn’t even appear in my mind. I leave a comment under a user saying that user profile may have been vandalized at some point. I check out that guys user page, I learn what userboxes are, and ask him if I can borrow some. Again, did I actually pay attention to his activity? No. Because I literally didn’t know that information was available to me. I check out another guys profile and see that he’s been arguing with admins consistently. I ask how he’s doing, admittedly a weird move. But that’s it. I don’t have some malicious ulterior motive. I have no connections with any of these users. I want to contribute, but I am stuck here. You’ve given me no time to actually show you that I CAN contribute here. I was unblocked for 14 hours or so. Sorry for the bluntness. But I’m not sure what you want me to do here. *LittleFinn9* (talk) 16:05, 13 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Bbb23 and Yamla, I was just browsing around on Discord and saw this. I don't see a reason for the block myself, and am inclined to unblock with a reminder about NOTSOCIAL. I could certainly be missing something. Please let me know what you think. Enterprisey (talk!) 00:11, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
    Missed a ping to @331dot, oops. Enterprisey (talk!) 00:28, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
    @Enterprisey: I oppose an unblock for the reason I stated above.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:53, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
    @Bbb23: What reason? You stated a few of my actions that were reasonably suspicious, I explained myself. I cannot deduce any actual reasoning for the block from your singular comment. Like I’ve said twice before, you still haven’t told me how those actions pertain to trolling or NOTHERE in any way. I completely agree with a warning for NOTSOCIAL, as that is an actually valid response to my conduct. *LittleFinn9* (talk) 02:46, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
    I also still oppose an unblock. 331dot (talk) 01:05, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
