Hi
[edit]Hello Jpgordon, I’m not sure if I should be using this space for this, but I wanted to bring something to your attention. One of the users you unblocked, User:Koshuri Sultan (Based Kashmiri), mentioned that they wouldn’t disappoint you for unblocking them [2]. However, MrAnonymous699 was a sockmaster involved in meatpuppetry as well. The sockpuppets and meatpuppets had several issues with many users, including myself, for not allowing them to carry out their desired actions. The Indian WP:MILHIST topic area is quite complex, filled with users who celebrates thier pride in an ugly way, and MrAnonymous699 was one of them. In fact, their actions helped those who reported them catch them in the act. Unblocking them was a bad option, or at least it should have prevented them from editing South Asian articles. Now, they seem to be retaliating by editing the articles I work on, reverting changes, which could lead to potential edit warring, and even attempting to delete the articles I created. I was the one proposed deleting the articles they created—perhaps out of a sense of vengeance? The user’s battleground behaviour, and I noticed Noorullah21’s comment above as well. MrAnonymous699 had socks because his editings weren't healthy(you know what I meant). They view other fellow editors as their enemies. Just wanted to bring the situation to your attention. The user will definitely be here as they pokes my contributions frequently. Good day. Imperial[AFCND] 17:05, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- You should stop making these frivolous complaints, an editor that has appealed their sanction is an editor in good standing. Casting unsubstantiated aspersions and poisoning the well in a contentious topic is not a good idea. Koshuri (グ) 17:24, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mr Anonymous 699 is where to raise a new investigation. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 17:49, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

Meta-Wiki block
[edit]I'm just here to inform you that the Meta-Wiki autoblock that I got was a false positive and I got unblocked 2 minutes after getting blocked because of that. I didn't notice it at first so I requested the unblock that you have declined. RaschenTechner (talk) 21:29, 3 March 2025 (UTC)
- Good! Glad to know it got taken care of easily. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 22:20, 3 March 2025 (UTC)

Appeal
[edit]Hello, I was blocked from editing since 2023 on the account ‘Elpresidente360’ and after I evaded block I was banned. Having taken off time to reflect deeply on my actions and more importantly on Wikipedia’s rule, and having demonstrated willingness not to repeat such actions, my ban has been lifted. Consequently, I wish to request for ‘Elpresidente360’ be made my alternate account and ‘MikeJanetta’ my active account. Lastly, I want to also apologize for exchanging words out of annoyance with the administrator which made him to block my talk page. Looking forward to hearing from you! Elpresidente360 (talk) 07:58, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
- I don't think so; there's no reason to apologize to me. Apologize to Yamla and talk them into unblocking the Janetta account, if you can. It's not my call. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 14:58, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
