Request reason:

Hello! I have no idea why I was blocked in the first place. You can check that I was never unpolite or doing anything against Wiki policy. I do not know Africa Paprika and I only saw him once at the wiki talk I was involved in a year ago. I wrote Administrator that blocked me and I got no answer. Thanks!

Decline reason:

Confirmed sockpuppet. Stifle (talk) 17:51, 12 March 2009 (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.

Stifle, "Pygmalion" knows very well why he was blocked. As for you, the awnser can be find very easily on Pygmalion's userpage, with the link to the checkuser verification in December 2007 that confired him as a sockpuppet of Afrika paprika. Bye.--Aldux (talk) 20:39, 11 March 2009 (UTC) Look, I am not a Wiki expert and I have no idea what checkuser is. In September 2007 I sided with Afrika Paprika against editor PaxEquilibrium on dispute whether to name Paganians Slavic or Serbian tribe. Interesting enough, our opinion prevailed in the end. There is no other connection between me and Afrika Paprika. Recently I wanted to edit another page and I found that in meantime I was blocked. I am ready to prove my case any way you require, including revealing my true identity. I have absolutely nothing to hide. Pygmalion (talk) 08:33, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

First of all I aplogise if I make any mistake in my request for unblocking. I am not an experienced Wikipedia user and I am quite surprised about what happened to me. Here is what I realised after reading pages and logs concerning blocks for several hours: In September 2007 I was involved in a heated dispute whether to name Paganians Slavic or Serbian tribe. In a debate I sided with user Afrika Paprika against editor PaxEquilibrium. I do not know either of those two users, either personally or by Internet. But I quickly lost interest and left the discussion. After two months in November 2007 PaxEquilibrium requested banning me for being a socketpuppet of Afrika Paprika, which was quickly sanctioned by administator Aldux. Since I was inactive for almost three years, I wasn't even aware of the block until a few days ago when I tried to edit something. I am completely amazed and I do not know what to do! All I want is to edit pages and now I am prevented to do so - and even banned to create another account! Therefore I politely ask you to revise my case and lift the ban, because the ban was obviously some kind of mistake. Regards.

Decline reason:

Technical evidence outlined here shows that this is one of a long series of accounts that are all used by the same person. This is not permitted according to policy, and so you will not be unblocked. Request unblocking under your main account. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 21:55, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

But this *is* my main and only account. I have *nothing* to do with Afrika Paprika! Pygmalion (talk) 22:55, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Pygmalion. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Pygmalion~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
