Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

---

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 why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

someone made a mistake. Unblock me. I've never heard of "usernameunderduress" and it's not me.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

• the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
• the block is no longer necessary because you
  1. understand what you have been blocked for,
  2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
  3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. Aoidh (talk) 01:11, 6 November 2023 (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.

Tell me what I have to do. I'm not a fake, I"m not a sock, I'm not "usernameunderduress" or anyone else. I was told to make an ANI report by slatersteven (talk · contribs) and M.Bitton (talk · contribs).[1] USNavelObservatory (talk) 01:02, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to User talk:USNavelObservatory—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

Gryllida's reply to the 'helpme' query

Hi USNavelObservatory, a few points:

• {{helpme}} template is only for assistance from non-administrators. I'm unable to resolve it because I'm not an administrator here at Wikipedia. To request an unblock, add another {{unblock}} query with the request edited substantially to address the concerns raised above.
• Your account name coincides with name of an organization. I'd suggest a rename to emphasize it belongs to individual. This is required by policies. You may visit Special:GlobalRenameRequest to rename your account.
• The unblock request above could be strengthened by avoiding name-calling and by specifying your purpose in editing Wikipedia (for example, 'editing articles about X to improve Y').
• You may still be able to edit sister wikis, which are listed on the Wikipedia home page. They all know you're blocked here and may repeat this block there. If you join these, please edit constructively and do not take Wikipedia discussions to these wikis (i.e., unblock discussions). These wikis allow to explore other topics, not an encyclopedia - they include images, books, dictionary, travel map data anyone can edit, and so on.

Hope this helps. Don't hesitate to click 'reply' next to my signature to send me a note.

• @Gryllida:'s well intentioned advice is not as accurate as it could be. Changing your username will not make any difference in your block status. Your block is a checkuser block. As such, only checkusers (and ArbCom) possess the capacity to unblock. You can locate processes to proceed at the policy pages I've linked here. Tiderolls 15:15, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
