Unanswered unblock request
editThere’s an unblock request here that hasn’t been answered in two weeks. I won’t cast judgement on its validity but I think the user has a right to know whether they’ll be unblocked. Dronebogus (talk) 08:23, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Dronebogus: After a fair bit of thought, I declined the request. Johnuniq (talk) 09:34, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Continued edit warring during open discussion
editEven though one person was already blocked for edit-warring on this, two others continue: Richard D'Oyly Carte. Can you please return it to the status quo ante? -- Ssilvers (talk) 04:48, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
user:Smefs again
editThe user is now baselessly accusing me of being a sock of some user they have a grudge against. This is sufficient evidence to demonstrate they are uninterested in actually getting unblocked. I think revoking their talk page rights is in order. Dronebogus (talk) 16:48, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Dronebogus: The user is now unable to comment further at their talk so there is nothing further to do. However, for the future, please do not repeatedly comment at a blocked users talk unless invited. Very few people think they deserve to be blocked and it is expected that they will vent a bit. I know you were trying to help but it plainly was not doing any good. It's best to leave them alone and comment only if they ask for something specific and it appears that a reply might achieve something useful. Johnuniq (talk) 01:49, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
