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:

Please unblock my account. I apologize for past disturbances causes by my overly aggressive behavior. I want to start contributing to this website again; and I am prepared to use a more civil tone toward other editors. Cognition (talk)

Decline reason:

Sorry for the delay in dealing with this; those on hold templates tend to get forgotten on occasion.
I am declining this for now, because it seems the general consensus at the AN discussion was that you can be unblocked if you agree to certain conditions (which I note you have below). These conditions (based on what was suggested there, and what you've agreed to below) will include:

  1. You are restricted to the use of a single account, which may be checked by Checkuser without notice
  2. You are subject to a civility restriction
  3. You will have a mentor for as long as the community considers it necessary; traditionally, mentorship programs last for about a year, so we'll go with that for now, although your mentor may start a discussion on AN if they feel it can be ended early or needs to be extended.
  4. You are expected to abide by the BLP policy at all times. While the ban placed at Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Lyndon LaRouche 2 is no longer in effect, you should take particular care in working in and around those articles.
  5. Violation of these terms, as determined by your mentor or an uninvolved administrator, may result in immediate reinstatement of your indefinite block, or a block of shorter length at the blocker's discretion.

Please confirm acceptance of these terms below; if you have comments about any of them, please let us know and we'll consider modifying them as appropriate. I would also ask you to look into finding a mentor via email; when you find one, please ask them to post to this page confirming their willingness to do so. If you are unable to find a mentor yourself, email me and I will start an AN discussion requesting one; failing that, I may ask ArbCom to assign one. I unfortunately am already serving as a mentor, and so am not available to do so here. Once you have completed all of the above (confirming acceptance/finding a mentor), please post a new unblock request below. Hersfold non-admin 14:49, 22 July 2009 (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.

I have raised the issue at WP:AN. Lets see where the discussion leads us. Please await community consensus. --Jayron32.talk.contribs 05:14, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
To respond to some of that discussion, I am very sorry about what happened in the past. I do believe that I "get" Misplaced Pages now. I will cooperate in returning under a civility probation and/or mentorship, as one of the contributors proposed. Cognition (talk) 16:49, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
