ArbCom unblock appeal

The Arbitration Committee has carefully considered the user's appeal and has declined to unblock at this time. After six months of not editing Wikipedia under any account including IP accounts the user may again apply to have the block reviewed.

Community ban

If you feel this ban is unjust, you may appeal your case to the Arbitration Committee by email. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 20:15, 6 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Hello. To anybody who picks up on this request, this is indef-blocked User:Doughnuthead speaking. I firmly believe I can finally be of positive use to Wikipedia, and I no longer feel the need to gain attention through malicious editing. I'd actually all but forgotten about all the nonsense i had caused in the previous years until i saw a funny picture online of a guy with a swollen head, which reminded me of my username. But more to the point, i realised that my ability to edit the talk page was barred. After taking a look at previous edits, i realised i was being a bit of a tube. You were right to take that ability away. So just a heads up that i can only edit on anon as this account is obviously still suspended. In terms of getting unblocked, i haven't made a single edit to Wikipedia in almost 3 years, and during this time i have matured enough to the point that i look back at what i was getting up to and think 'Oh god! Who was i even trying to impress?!' In terms of where i aim to get involved in on the website, I still hold a strong interest in football (soccer) related articles, along with hip-hop and old school rock related articles- hence my music taste. As it has been so long since I bothered to use the editing facility, I'll need re-shown how to work various parts of the site or whatever it's called. I only remembered how to request unblock by clicking on the 'edit' tab and noticing one of my old templates! Furthermore, I don't intend to be an overly active user on the site, as I begin my university course in September much of my time will be dedicated towards my studies, and so I intend to see Wikipedia as a hobby to input my thoughts and research every now and then. Finally, thank you very much to whoever reads my request - I appreciate the time taken to do so and I apologise for my past behaviour. I was just a stupid kid (it lasted from age 12-15 if I recall!) and I hope to hear from someone as soon as possible,--89.243.205.141 (talk) 13:32, 20 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

You are banned form editing Wikipedia, which means that this appeal is in iteslf a violation of your ban (and by rights, I should just delete it rather than responding). However, people can change a lot in two years, and I for one would be minded to consider an appeal through the proper channels. In this case, the channel is the Ban Appeals Subcommittee; please email the committee with your appeal, and we will consider it. Yunshui  13:54, 20 May 2015 (UTC)Reply


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.

Request reason:

Hello. Yes I am aware this is rather unorthodox, but I see no other way to stay informed. I applied directly to ArbCom a little over a month ago to be unblocked/unbanned but have yet to recieve a response. Although I was told my request would be responded to 'within a few weeks' I feel time is just dragging on too long. This isn't exactly a request to be unblocked, but i'd rather just gain some consensus as to whether I can have an appeal accepted at a community level.--80.44.68.69 (talk) 00:09, 23 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Yeah man, I agree, this use should be unblocked. 70.128.116.200 (talk) 00:46, 23 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Unban request

This edit requested an unban. It used the unblock template, despite the fact you know your only avenue for unbanning is WP:BASC. However, as the unblock request was made by an IP address rather than someone signed in to this account, I have simply blanked it. Any further instances will result in this page being protected, though. --Yamla (talk) 15:10, 6 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

This page has now been protected to prevent any further instances. --Yamla (talk) 15:20, 6 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
The IP user, claiming to be Doughnuthead, continued to be abusive on their IP talk page and I had to revoke talk page access. If this really was Doughnuthead, they continue to show it would be breathtakingly inappropriate to lift the ban. --Yamla (talk) 15:42, 6 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
