User talk:61.101.80.201

June 2025

Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for block evasion.

If you believe that there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:28, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address and you are an uninvolved editor with a registered account, you may continue to edit by logging in.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

I don't seem to understand why I have been blocked. It says "block evasion" but this is my first time writing here. 61.101.80.201 (talk) 03:40, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

IP addresses can be shared amongst other people, in many ways. If you know nothing about this, please request an account via WP:ACC so that your edits are your own and you arenn't affected by blocks caused by others. You may also wait out the block. 331dot (talk) 09:01, 7 June 2025 (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:

This is my first time writing on Wikipedia. Any administrator is free to investigate this IP address. I read that something called Checkuser? can be used? To check? 61.101.80.201 (talk) 12:04, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This IP address was used to evade a block. If that wasn't you, please request an account via WP:ACC. No other investigation needs to be done; checkusers do not use their tools on request. 331dot (talk) 16:33, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

You are mistaken. What IP did evade the block? I would want to create an account but the community doesn't feel very welcoming to be honest. On what grounds? Any evidence? 61.101.80.201 (talk) 16:42, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Hi IP, I've had a look and asked the blocking admin, and I do agree that your questions strongly resemble those by another recently blocked editor. Because IPs can change frequently, it's possible that you never knew you were blocked in the first place. Once this block expires, I strongly suggest creating an account so this doesn't happen to you in the future. -- asilvering (talk) 17:32, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I frequently read Wikipedia and I did see similar topics popping up throughout the years on the same talk pages (when I go back in the extensive archive there), so it's nothing new. I can assure you, I haven't been writing here for over ten years. It seems to be a pattern there to shut down all kind of discussions if it gets uncomfortable so I just wanted to jump in to improve the articles but was blocked very quickly and my answers were removed. Many misleading references in those articles and apparently anyone trying to correct it gets blocked rather quickly. 61.101.80.201 (talk) 17:42, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

If you are not the target of the block, you know how you can go about editing. You've decided not to do that. That's fine, but stop making unblock requests. Yamla (talk) 21:45, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a particular reason you are not availing yourself of WP:ACC? 331dot (talk) 17:57, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Well, just because I don't plan to be active every week, just maybe once a month or so, to change some small things when I see something that needs correction, so I don't think it is needed. And there should be no problem to edit without an account either. There shouldn't be a difference.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.101.80.201 (talk)

Many people create an account and never edit at all- just so they can keep a list of articles they like.

Well there isn't a problem with editing via IP- unless others on your IP or IP range that are unconcerned with how their actions affect others engage in bad actions. We must take action to protect the project, and sometimes that affects innocent people, but protecting the project must be the top priority.

If you don't want to create an account, that is up to you- but then you must accept the consequences of that, which include occasionally being affected by blocks like this. This will expire in 5(ish) days, you are welcome to wait. 331dot (talk) 08:13, 8 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your perspective, and there is not much I can do about it, just that I stand by my opinion that it is unfair. For the record I did not engage in bad behaviour, but there seems to be a pattern of religious fanatics not bothered by facts that dominates certain articles, which is sad. Even if I did create an account I have a feeling that the relgious fanatics would ban it again, even if just trying to correct small things.

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Polygnotus (talk) 03:48, 5 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
