January 2015

Hello, I'm A.amitkumar. An edit you recently made to Brady Campaign seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to do so. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.  A m i t  웃   16:34, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. This is not an open proxy. It is a public IP attached to a medical center, which is where I'm sitting right now. It's use ain't against the rules. I'm the guy who made all the edits in 2015 with this IP. @Mike V: placed a broad range block, 162.119.0.0/16. https://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Log/Mike_V. It was apparently triggered by a spurious SPI. Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/Darknipples The block is a serious inconvenience. I've been making positive contributions. Please unblock this address for my benefit and for future users who are stuck in waiting rooms. 162.119.231.132 (talk) 15:15, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

Notes:

  • In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
  • Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.
Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

I agree that this block should be reviewed. If the IP is a WP:PROXY, policy says that open or anonymising proxies may be blocked from editing - if their being used abusively. WP:SOCK lists about a dozen inappropriate uses (and about an equal number of legitimate uses). The IP user is not me and they are not Darknipples, and since no-one else is trying to introduce pro-control balance to gun-control articles at this time that I'm aware of, I don't think the IP is someone "Contributing to the same page or discussion with multiple accounts." Probably the best guess, if the IP editor is abusing a proxy, is that he/she is circumventing a sanction, but I don't know of a blocked pro-control editor at this time. There are three pro-gun editors topic-banned from GC articles right now, and one who is site-banned.

Unless this IP editor has done something wrong, they should be unblocked. I have posted a DS alert re gun control below. Lightbreather (talk) 15:36, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
