Stop icon
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violations of Misplaced Pages's biographies of living persons policy, as you did at The Child School. 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 ~~~~}}.  Huon (talk) 19:24, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

Unblock

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:

I made that edit in Middle School. I have since learned much about Misplaced Pages and anonymously edited the page for the Tuyuhun language.Xaminaf (talk) 16:53, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Decline reason:

Decline as unresponsive- you may make a new request when you are able to respond. 331dot (talk) 08:20, 21 October 2021 (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.

Unblock discussion

User was blocked three years ago. Inclined to unblock. Needs discussion with @Huon:. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 19:43, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

So the main argument towards being unblocked is block evasion? Before the block, the user's other edits beyond the vandalism were trivia and unexplained removal of sourced content. Three years is a considerable amount of time, but without an explanation of how the future edits will differ from the past ones I don't think time served is on its own a reason to unblock. And if this is indeed Xaminaf, then I don't think an unblock would benefit the encyclopedia. Huon (talk) 23:11, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
@Huon: if it makes a difference, since they're part of a class their contributions are monitored by their instructor and by me, so hopefully they'll be on their best behaviour.

I see a pattern here of some arguably well-meaning language-related edits followed by random vandalism a few months later. I don't doubt that they would be on their best behavior while they're closely monitored, but I see no reason to expect that the pattern of random vandalism some months after language-related edits would change if we unblocked him. I'm neither active enough nor inclined to keep periodically checking Xaminaf's edits every few months. If another admin feels that Xaminaf's unblock request sufficiently addresses his past behavior, I wouldn't object to an unblock, but I don't think it does. Huon (talk) 16:17, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
Huon, as I said, I will be monitoring his behaviour, and obviously would reblock if needed. That said, I obviously have a COI here, and there's no way I'd feel comfortable do the unblock myself. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:03, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, Xaminaf, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Misplaced Pages's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Misplaced Pages editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.
