This user is a recurring Iranian IP hopper targeting e.g. the articles about Violet Brown, Nabi Tajima and Chiyo Miyako. This has been going on for a long time. Would it be possible to lay a range block for 2.191.0.0/24? Disembodied Soul (talk) 07:00, 15 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Global unlock for Diegusjaimes

Status:    On hold

Hi, I'm not a normal IP. I am the same user. I can't edit with my original account, because this actually locked, and i can't access its. I request unlock and ask for forgiveness for the damages caused at this time. Thanks in advance --181.61.83.227 03:25, 27 July 2017 (UTC) PD: Sorry for my englishReply

To the Stewards, Bernard is a CU and can confirm a new block evasion [1] --Ks-M9 [disc.] 16:24, 28 July 2017 (UTC).Reply
I created it simply to continue editing. There is no vandalism or anything bad. I am worried that Wikipedia in Spanish will be so drastic with users who want to edit for the first time, or who want to resume editing, and I am also puzzled by the fact that they consider everyone as a "toxic element" to Anyone who gets blocked. 181.61.83.227 18:23, 28 July 2017 (UTC) PD: The last text is traduced by Google"Reply
See w:WP:BE and w:WP:SOCK - Using other account to continue editing while blocked is not permitted in most Wikimedia projects, even if the editor only makes good edits.
  • For Diegusjaimes: I suggest you do no edit in Spanish Wikipedia, using any account or anonymously, in no less than six months (i.e. until at least 2018-1-29) and request an unblock there. You're free to contribute other Wikimedia projects once you are unlocked.
  • For stewards: I think the account can be unlocked as long as there're no longer crosswiki issue. This allows user to make significant and useful contributions to other WMF projects (which is beneficial for unblocking in eswiki).

--GZWDer (talk) 19:18, 28 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Comment. I believe that the initial lock is wrong on a number of grounds. 1) Socking has no impact upon the use of the primary account. 2) Socks are not against WMF terms and use, and the use of global lock is not for this purpose of locking primary accounts. If the user is to be excluded we should be using a consensus of the community discussed in a global ban rather than summary exclusion by judge and jury stewardry.  — billinghurst sDrewth 22:07, 5 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

It has assumed its mistake, it should be given a chance to improve its mistake, it is a good person, Well I wanted to be unlocked because I wanted to appeal in my account and I know I did many mistakes but I wanted to start from somewhere that's why I wanted to be unlocked well if could, Thanks for your time,I want an opportunity. I want to ask and unblock my account. Let me have a chance, Thanks, --223.184.80.43 07:51, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Would you like to stop socking and wait for the certain period time of few months on the unlock request? SA 13 Bro (talk) 13:18, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

If you stop your disruptive editing such as like spamming and socking in between a few months to 6 months, yes it will. SA 13 Bro (talk) 17:14, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
@SA 13 Bro but i have a send mail of jimmy wales and If I told you about my problem, then I was told from there that you first request a global unlock, then you login to your account and request to unblock your account in it,And if the accounts you have created in Wikipedia are from the beginning, then your account will be unblocked, so I have requested to unlock your account here. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 2405:204:E408:2BF7:4165:4E2:CC25:BD4F (talk) 17:23, 19 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
