Possible sock but a user PhiIKnight2 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), used your username possibly for impersonation. Already blocked but user is requesting an unblock. Best, ///EuroCarGT 06:08, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi EuroCarGT, thanks for your prompt action. I've run a checkuser, and it seems to be a sock of someone that I blocked recently. PhilKnight (talk) 09:10, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

New sockpuppet investigation for user INic

I would like to request for an unblank of this investigation page because there are new evidences that user INic is still using sockppupets to support his opinion. Caramella1 (talk) 10:37, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Caramella1, I've partially restored the page. PhilKnight (talk) 10:54, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Singapore shenanigans

Hi! You declined an unblock request from CorneliaHTang. That doesn't appear to have deterred someone from editing at Art Plural Gallery. Could I ask for a block on the the address range 58.185.1.176 - 58.185.1.191, assigned to that gallery? There is a long history of COI and copyvio there. Many thanks, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 09:38, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Justlettersandnumbers, for now I've just blocked 58.185.1.176 for a year. If there are further problems, then obviously I can block the IP range as you suggest. PhilKnight (talk) 11:41, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Editing dispute regarding the Odissi article

Hello,

I have made a FP for the article Odissi. But from last some days one IP is keep on changing the FP from the article with another photograph. Please guide me how to convince the IP or help me out to do the same. You can see the history of the page Odissi with sever undo redo game

Please help me.

Bellus Delphina 05:01, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Bellus Delphina, I've warned the IP about edit warring. PhilKnight (talk) 08:17, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Thank you PhilKnight :) Bellus Delphina 14:24, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Stritefocusnep

I corrected two incorrectly formatted unblock requests on this user's talk page. You have reverted one to an incorrect format, with an edit summary pointing out that only one unblock request should be extant at any time. This is obviously correct, but the two requests still exist, except that one is now wrongly formatted. I left both up as you had already answered the earlier one, albeit out of template. Am I showing my ignorance here, or did you overlook the history?--Anthony Bradbury 12:19, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Anthony, for what's it worth I agree with Origamite's edit, however in the overall scheme of things, I guess it doesn't matter. PhilKnight (talk) 12:54, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

Repeated attack

Hello,

We had a talk about the IP who is doing vandalism in the article Odissi. As per my request you have warned the IP and the same was informed to me. Please see the same article once again, the same person with different IP doing the same kind of edits without seeing any criteria. Please do the needful to keep the article details safe with the FP.

Bellus Delphina 17:27, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

I've semi-protected the article for 3 months. PhilKnight (talk) 17:50, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you so much PhilKnight : Bellus Delphina 02:56, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

User:Bobi987 Ivanov and his sockpuppets

Hi, sorry to bother you here, but I noticed you were the admin who blocked Bobi987 Ivanov (talk · contribs) for sockpuppetry. He is using a sock again, making the same edits, and just continuing to edit-war his way through articles. His new incarnation is Chakmak111 (talk · contribs). I've opened up a sockpuppet investigation, but there seems to be a significant backlog at the noticeboard. Hence, I decided to contact you directly, since you are alreadyUfamiliar with the case etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.--Laveol 02:10, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Laveol, thanks for letting me know. PhilKnight (talk) 13:59, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Userright of a blocked user?

Is there any reason to keep userrights of a blocked user? Thanks! Jim Carter 17:17, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jim, I think current practice is to not automatically remove privileges from blocked users. PhilKnight (talk) 00:23, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

more communiondress nonsense

Hi Jytdog, I've blocked the IP. PhilKnight (talk) 02:24, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

Just keeping you posted about this. Do you know -jem-? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 02:23, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Anna, looking at meta:Special:CentralAuth/-jem-, there's a Spanish admin and crat by that name. However, I don't know them. PhilKnight (talk) 02:42, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you! I've posted at https://es.wikipedia.org/Usuario_Discusi%C3%B3n:-jem-#Squidville1. Should we post at squidville's talk for admins considering an unblock? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 04:58, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

No, I'd suggest waiting for confirmation. PhilKnight (talk) 17:50, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

Advice

Could you please give me some?

You reviewed my block, for which I thank you, and offered good advice which I didn't take (rephrase my appeal), deciding instead to just ride it out.

My block, and the far more important issues surrounding the Ayurveda page, the chilling effects on good editors etc etc are still concerning me.

Would you perhaps comment? You may not wish to, and that would be fine. Thanks -Roxy the dog™ (resonate) 06:45, 15 November 2014 (UTC)

I'm somewhat concerned with actions of John (talk · contribs), and think we would should perhaps consider a WP:RFC/ADMIN. PhilKnight (talk) 17:35, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
