User:NewslingerUser:Barkeep49 Hello Sir, I understand I shouldn't have asked for promotion to my friend m I genuinely apologize for it. Please reduce the cooling off period from 6 months to a little less and also please have a look at my unblock request that you rejected. If you feel you need explanation, kindly let me know. But I request kindly atleast reduce the cooling off period. I will wait till then I promise. ""The six-month threshold can be adjustable under special circumstances. If an editor shows an unusually good insight into the circumstances that led to the block, and sets out a credible proposal for how they will deal with those issues in future, then a return might be considered sooner."" This is what I found on the guidelines and I request you to be a little soft with this request. Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 11:55, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Skhandelwal0608, you may find the following policy paragraph to be informative:

Wikipedians in turn are not permitted to post or edit material at the direction of a blocked editor (sometimes called proxy editing or "proxying") unless they can show that the changes are either verifiable or productive and they have independent reasons for making such edits. New accounts that engage in the same behavior as a banned editor or blocked account in the same context, and that appear to be editing Wikipedia solely for that purpose, are subject to the remedies applied to the editor whose behavior they are imitating. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppetry § Meatpuppetry.
— Wikipedia:Blocking policy § Edits by and on behalf of blocked editors

Another administrator will respond to your current unblock request. — Newslinger talk 12:03, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

User:Newslinger sir I completely understand and this is just a common interest nothing else. I assure you he is not my duplicate account. Please help me by reducing the cooling off period and please check my unblock request. I assure you that you may personally monitor my account and take action if you find me violating any policies in future. I know that I should not have asked him to refer my case to someone and I apologise for the same. Please help me sir. I assure you that I will never ask anyone to help me on my behalf in Wikipedia. I would request you or any administrator to help me get out of these blocks. Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 15:30, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I have not engaged in any block evasion. I told he is my friend. Please let the block be requested to be unblocked. Please give me a fair chance. User:Newslinger With all due respect to any possible sources, I can swear that I am not a paid editor. I have always contributed to Wikipedia on my own free will and not in influence of any kind of benefit. However, it may seem that I am a paid editor because I have edited and added a lot of pages related to Udaipur, Prince and King of Udaipur and HRH Group of hotels. I want to justify this. I recently came across the Prince of Udaipur on a podcast on YouTube by Youtuber Ranveer Alabhadia (Beer Biceps) which led to my interest in the royalty of Udaipur and it's businesses. This is the only reason I have created and edited pages related to it. You can trust me on this that I have never been paid by anybody for editing and creating pages. I will not edit any pages related to this topic from now onwards. I am interested to edit pages to wikipedia to make the platform better for us. You can see I have added valuable information related to Balasore and it's MLA. I have also edited some school pages related to Schools in Kolkata. These edits were also made out of my genuimne knowledge about these subjects and not because someone paid me. I apologise to you again Jimfbleak. Also sir, if you want any other explanation, I'll be answering all of them.Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 11:42, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Dear Sir/Ma'am, with all due respect to my fellow editors on Wikipedia and the administrators, I want to make an appeal against me getting blocked on Wikipedia. I can assure you that I have never been paid in any kind for editing or creating pages on Wikipedia. I have always used the knowledge that I have over certain topics that I find useful and want to share with others using our platform. I have never intended to spread any false information using Wikipedia. I would request you all to kindly unblock me and restore pages created by me. I assure you that I will from now onwards use any verifiable source links where possible to ensure that the data can be cross checked. I request you all to kindly unblock me, to enable me continue my willingness to contribute to the Wikipedia community.

Decline reason:

Based on information I am not allowed to disclose publicly, I believe there is a strong possibility that you are indeed a paid editor, and as such I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 13:56, 19 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Please help me with my unblock request. Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 16:20, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

You have an open request that is visible to the limited number of administrators. I understand your frustration, but you must be patient. You may use this time to make your request more persuasive. You cannot remove prior declined requests until the block is removed. 331dot (talk) 16:47, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Please stop using help me tags for this matter. According to the block log entry(which you may view as well by going to your user page, User:Skhandelwal0608) you were blocked by Jimfbleak; my use of their linked name will give them a notification to come here. 331dot (talk) 17:35, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Dear Sir, I completely understand that Help me tags won't be very relevant, but please understand my situation. I have been blocked for so long without a fault of mine. I need your help if you could at least try to understand my concern and provide me with a unblock. You are the only one I can ask for help currently. Please Help me I beg you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skhandelwal0608 (talkcontribs) 17:38, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Please do not use help me tags for this matter again. My opinion of this matter remains unchanged. I would suggest that you think about why someone might think that you are a paid editor and address that. 331dot (talk) 17:46, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
331dot I have tried out all possibilities but I seriously am not getting why I was blocked. Sir, you have seen my request and rejected it. Can you suggest to me what activity has let me to this block. I promise you I will do all nescessary changes and disclosures once I am aware of them. You are the only person who has helped me so far. Please help me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skhandelwal0608 (talkcontribs) 17:48, 8 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Do not use help me tags again for your unblock request. You have been told repeatedly both here and on IRC to stop adding them. If you want to notify a user, use the template {{u|Username}}, although I do not recommend pinging 331dot as they have already indicated they have nothing more to say.

331dot, thanks. Skhandelwal0608, it's pretty clear from your pattern of editing alone that you seem only to be interested in editing articles about this group and people associated with it. I see no reason to unblock you, but one thing that you should bear in mind is that even if you were unblocked you would not be allowed to continue writing about HRH group and related topics. If you were genuinely not a paid editor that shouldn't matter to you, but you have given no indication that you want to write about anything else. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:43, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Jimfbleak Hey Jimfbleak, thank you so much for your reply. Now I know the exact reason why I was blocked. I completly understand that I have edited multiple pages related to HRH Group. I have mentioned the reason why I did that in my unblock request. I hereby want to make it clear that I have not been paid by any person associated with that group and I am not interested anymore to create/edit pages related to that. I request you to kindly unblock me and I asure you that I won't be editing about HRH group and related topics. I completly understand that so many edits related to it made my account look suspicious and if I were at your place, I would have blocked the account too. To conclude, I would like to apologise to everyone on Wikipedia for the trouble I caused. Also, a lot of thanks to 331dot for helping me with the requests. I would request you guys to kindly unblock my account. You can keep me blocked from editing any pages related to HRH Group. I have no issues with that. But please don't ban me from being an editor on Wikipedia altogether. Also, let me know what more disclosure I can make to get my account unblocked.Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 17:38, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Jimfbleak 331dot Hello 331dot. I know this might be irritating for you but can you please just once again tag Jimfbleak. Really sorry for troubling you. Because this ban is for lifetime and I am honestly not paid editor. You told me to look for issue and try Rectify them but since I am not a paid editor, I cannot wrongly disclose such thing in my talk page. Please tag him once.Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 13:40, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Skhandelwal0608, indefinite blocks aren't "infinite"—they simply have no definite end time. See here for more info. Perryprog (talk) 17:43, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Perryprog I understand that but since no body is interested in listening to my genuine reasons, I might never get unblocked. Can you atleast review my block? Since you are also an adminsitrator. You may even consult with Jimfbleak. But please help me with this. Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 17:52, 10 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Skhandelwal0608, I am not an administrator. You have filed an unblock request and that's all you need to do right now; an uninvolved administrator will at some point review the request, and either decline or accept it. If you do want something to do, I would recommend reading the guide to appealing blocks (and read it thoroughly—this isn't one of the things you should skim read), and then amending your unblock request accordingly to what you may learn from there.

Skhandelwal0608, you can ping/tag people by linking to their username, like you're doing already with 331dot, or you can follow the instructions on Help:Talk pages § Notifications. However, I would note you should be a little bit more patient in your talk page usage, as otherwise your talk page access could be revoked. (Again, I encourage you to read through the guide to appealing blocks.) Additionally, an administrator will typically not review an unblock request twice—instead, an uninvolved administrator will do so. Perryprog (talk) 01:36, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Skhandelwal0608. 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 ~~~~}}.  ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:43, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

User_talk:OshwahUser:RoySmith Dear sir, I am not able to understand why I was blocked again. The appeal was made by my friend with whom I had shared my problem. He told me he will tag a few admins so that they could study my case. Please help me understand why I have been blocked again. Please don't block me or him. I beg you. He is just a friend and in bo other way related to me. I requested him to help me and also told him to give proper disclosure while creating any article as he might also get banned like me. Please don't do this injustice to us. Please. I beg you people to atleast help me. User: Jimfbleak User:331dotSkhandelwal0608 (talk) 11:01, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

(edit conflict) What you have done is called meatpuppetry. We don't know who is sitting at the computer operating any particular account, so we must assume that two accounts that seem related are the same person. It would be no different than sockpuppetry, creating another account yourself.
I would also note that your friend declared a conflict of interest, about one of the subjects that you also edited about. It is difficult to accept this as a coincidence, especially with your desperation to get unblocked, so if you have not been completely forthcoming up to now, I suggest that you change. 331dot (talk) 11:12, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply


331dot (talk) sir I am so desperate to get unblocked because this block is giving me a lot of panic attacks, I don't know exactly how to explain. I know no one here will believe me but that's true. Also my friend applied to create that page because both of us went for a competition there and hence have an interest in that place. I know I shouldn't have edited multiple pages realted to same topic to make my account look suspicious but I swear I gave my explanation in the first paragraph. Please tag both admins and help me get unblocked. I promise I am not paid editor. I want to contribute to Wikipedia. Please I beg you read my request. Please sir. I can swear on anything, provide you everything in writing that I have not been paid. It was just genuine interest about royalty in Udaipur. Also If I have a different working account, why would I ask so desperately to get unblocked. Please help sir.

I am not going to harass other admins that have already given their views on this matter for you. For fairness, others need to look at this. If you are having medical problems related to your Wikipedia use, I would suggest that you seek medical help and perhaps take a break from using Wikipedia while your request is considered. Wikipedia is not a solution to medical issues users might have. There are no deadlines on this volunteer project, it will be here when you are able to resume using Wikipedia. 331dot (talk) 11:24, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

331dot sir it's not about harrasment. User: Jimfbleak asked me for an explanation and I updated my explanation also. Please do it for one last time. Also please understand the situation sir. Please sir please tag them. I promise this is last time. Please sir.


Also please don't let him suffer due to my request sir. Atleast don't block him.

Jimfbleak as the original blocking admin is probably monitoring this page, and if they don't have anything to add, they won't. I get the sense from their last comment that they might not have anything else to add. As for your friend, this situation will likely need to be resolved first. That's what happens when you recruit others to edit for or lobby for you. 331dot (talk) 11:32, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply


331dot (talk sir I made a mistake by asking him for help. Please tag Jimfbleak only once so that I atleast get one chance. One last chance. Sir it's already been a month. Please sir. PleaseSkhandelwal0608 (talk) 11:35, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

You haven't explained why your friend has edited in the same subject area as you, and declared a COI regarding it. 331dot (talk) 11:51, 12 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

331dot Yes sir, I'll be more than happy to explain. When my account got blocked I asked him to help me out by recommending my case to a any administrator as I am not able to write anything in their talk page. We are friends since a very beginning and 4 years ago when we were in class 10 we attended a fest in this school. I had earlier provided valuable inputs about this school. He also has a attachment to the school so he discussed with me in creating the page. I told him to disclose as many details as possible so as to ensure everyone on wikipedia know why are you creating such page else you may aslo get blocked. Hence he used such COI tag. This is it. He is really not my second account. I promise. Skhandelwal0608 (talk) 12:52, 12 February 2021 (UTC)lReply

Either you are the unluckiest Wikipedia user in the world and making every mistake you could possibly make or you are not being entirely forthcoming. I'm not sure which.

I have no idea why you are emailing me. It's not the way to get unblocked; you should use WP:UTRS. Given your prior behaviour, there's basically no chance anyone will lift the block at this time. Your best bet is to go six months with zero edits, then apply under WP:SO.
