Control copyright icon Hello JusticeWithWords! Your additions to American Coalition for Ukraine have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Wikishovel (talk) 04:37, 19 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Information icon Hello, I'm Wikishovel. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to American Coalition for Ukraine seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Wikishovel (talk) 22:02, 19 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Note

edit

Please note that due to WP:RUSUKR, editors who are not extended confirmed are unable to make edits about the Russo-Ukrainian war, broadly construed, but it is still possible to make constructive edit requests on the talk page. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 19:30, 12 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Blocked as a sockpuppet

edit
Stop icon
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Qq8 per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Qq8. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you believe that there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then submit a request through the unblock wizard or through your talk page.  In solidarity, asilvering (talk) 04:30, 28 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
Hi! I’m not using multiple accounts. This must be some kind of mistake. What’s the best way to proceed and unblock my account? Thanks. JusticeWithWords (talk) 15:08, 7 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
If you would like to appeal the block, please read the guide to appealing blocks and submit a request with either the unblock wizard or by placing {{unblock | reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} on your page, replacing Your reason here with your reasoning for being unblocked. 45dogs (they/them) (talk page) (contributions) 18:41, 8 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

This user's request to be unblocked to request a change in username has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without a good reason (see the blocking policy). Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:

The following request was written through the unblock wizard.
Please list all accounts you have used besides this one.
none
Have you taken the standard offer? (six months with no edits)
No.
Is there anything else that may be helpful to your unblock request?
I'm using one account and edit Wiki in the languages I know that's all I do. And frankly, I don't understand based on what grounds/ evidence/complaints I was blocked.

Decline reason:

I am declining your unblock request because it does not address the reason for your block, or because it is inadequate for other reasons. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that
  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you:
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.
Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:54, 11 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

What evidence/ examples of being a sockpuppet for this account? JusticeWithWords (talk) 01:22, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

@JusticeWithWords that is determined by IP address. It is possible that you share an IP address with a blicked account. @Voorts what should @JusticeWithWords do now? In solidarity Dafootballguy Want to talk? 02:04, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Dafootballguy, sockpuppetry blocks are rather more involved than just looking at someone's IP address. No one gets blocked for a shared IP alone. In solidarity, asilvering (talk) 03:03, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Asilvering what is a sockpuppetry block for then? In solidarity Dafootballguy Want to talk? 03:05, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
Dafootballguy, similar to what I said below, sockpuppetry blocks are for when it is decided that a user has been violating our sockpuppetry policy. This can be based on a number of factors, which does often include the IP address of the accounts—but could also involve factors like other private technical data that CheckUsers can see, along with the behaviors of the involved accounts. Best, GoldRomean (talk) 03:30, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
JusticeWithWords, you've been blocked based on a combination of behavioral evidence and private technical data (possibly including, but certainly not limited to, the IP addresses you've edited from). Based on this evidence, a CheckUser has concluded that it is reasonably likely that you have been abusing multiple accounts. Since you say above that you're using one account, do you have any reason why you think someone might think you operate several? For example, what sorts of situations do you edit in that could possibly lead to you sharing an IP address with several other users? GoldRomean (talk) 03:17, 15 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
