I think that was when I was a noob in regards to userfying stuff. The original page was a random page created by the user and it appeared to be user page stuff. Also, it was late at night and I am sorry if it disturbed you. If there is anything I can do leave a message, Yanksox 18:13, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

re: block

As I said on AN/I, if he will just promise to stop evading the block, I will reduce it back to a week. So far he hasn't contacted me. I think my offer is reasonable, and as someone else pointed out on his talk, he can open an RFC against me or anyone else after the week is up. He was causing a lot of disruption before and especially after his block, so I think he needs some time to cool off. Of course if he said he'd stop the disruption and I thought he was being serious, I'd unblock him entirely. But again, he hasn't contacted me. --W.marsh 01:56, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

He was unappologetically evading a block and causing disruption. There's simply no excuse for that. If he's not mature enough to realize that, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about it. I think I'm being reasonable. --W.marsh 02:00, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
That's fine, and in fact, it's all I'm asking for... if he says he will stop evading the block, I will take it back down to the 1 week. Anything beyond that he'll need to talk to the admin who gave the 1 week block, not me. --W.marsh 02:08, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Unblock request

unblock|I have not even heard of the user someone claims I am a sockpuppet of, I cannot find entries at checkuser for them, there is not a single piece of evidence provided for the claim, I cannot find a single article I edited among those they seem to have focussed on so I wonder how even the suspicion could arise, and the only thing at the checkuser page about me is an "inconclusive" case with someone different from the two. "Inconclusive" based on the fact that two guys from two European countries are likely identical. Sorry for cynism.

You need to contact the blocking admin. --pgk 06:58, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court

As the admin who blocked me removed the source from the article for the number of signatories , here is a link to a source that can be accessed without registration: Currently the Rome Statute of the ICC has 139 Signatories and 100 Ratifications. It also shows that the United States were indeed not removed from the list of signatories as written in the article with a tag for "citation needed". Socafan 00:21, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

You apparently have no idea what you're talking about. The Foundation's privacy policy allows information on the general location of an individual to be released; saying "He's coming from Germany" or "He's editing from Switzerland" is perfectly within policy.

There was absolutely no need to infringe on other users' privacy. Checkuser is a last resort for difficult cases.Socafan 10:10, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
