May 2019[edit]

You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Gepid. Thank you.

Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Uncyclopedia, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Wikia, you may be blocked from editing. Orville1974 (talk) 03:52, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You've been here a whole ten days, and you're already going around threatening to block people from editing. I'd strongly suggest you learn how things work around here first? Q788771 (talk) 04:31, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As a matter of fact, Orville1974 has actually been here for just over 8 years today, not 10 days. Stop inventing facts.Neateditor123 (talk) 12:48, 26 May 2019 (UTC)Neateditor123[reply]
No, their first post was at 22:55, 16 May 2019... unless this is a fake account created by someone who has been here for that time under some other name? Nah, couldn't happen. Q788771 (talk) 12:55, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong again. That is actually Orville1974's newest post (those are listed first, eventually going all the way back to his first; which, again, was literally 8 years ago). Try actually confirming your "facts" first before just spouting them off here.Neateditor123 (talk) 13:20, 26 May 2019 (UTC)Neateditor123[reply]
So first you edit-war Uncyclopedia to insert nonsense, then you remove the warnings left for you, then you come here to lie to me? (newest | oldest) Are you certain that you're here to build an encyclopedia? Q788771 (talk) 13:45, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, I did not edit-war Uncyclopedia (which is now on full administrator protection) to insert "false information", but rather to undo (and get thanked by other editors such as Kevindongyt‬ as a result) edits such as these that blatantly remove information. If there just so happened to be one edit in there that wasn't as such that I accidentally reverted, then I'm sorry. Additionally, the fact that you were constantly making those kinds of edits was the reason that I removed your warning on my page. As for how long Orville1974 has really been on this website (which is literally the only reason I even started this discussion in the first place), yes, you are right that I should have looked at that user's edit history more closely, but if I'm really lying to you about that particular fact, try and explain this then.Neateditor123 (talk) 14:29, 26 May 2019 (UTC)Neateditor123[reply]
Kevindongyt‬ is here from en.uncyclopedia.co to remove information about uncyclopedia.ca. When the uncyclopedia.co folks left in 2013, Wikia left the old project uncyclopedia.wikia.com open in direct competition with them. The end result is that there are now two English-language communities instead of one (the old project went to uncyclopedia.ca when Wikia severed ties this month) and each looks to be trying to edit Uncyclopedia to favour "their" Uncyclopedia. As such, an edit warrior "thanking" a fellow edit warrior in this manner is hardly a glowing endorsement.
Orville1974 looks just plain weird. He first posted ten days ago, setting "Twinkle preferences" in the first eighteen hours, and his user page is a mess of templates claiming to be here for eight years. I'd assumed that he was a sock puppet which you had created as part of your edit war.
Oh, and this? Reinserting nonsense like "In 2007, 25% (or 20 out of 34) of the Uncyclopedia collection was hosted by Wikia" really isn't helping us build an encyclopaedia. I'd already raised the issue Talk:Uncyclopedia#The_new_math? on the talk page. Your contributions are not constructive. Q788771 (talk) 14:41, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Considering most of your edits are solely on one topic (Uncyclopedia), and your attempts to insert ".ca" links everywhere... I attempted to enforce neutrality when Uncyclopedia.Wikia first closed, by having both links sit beside each other, a flame war btoke out. I believe that the admins' decision to fully protect the Uncyclopedia page is is in the best interests of the community, and continuously attempting to add Uncyclopedia (.ca) links on semi-related pages makes YOU an edit warrior. Considering other factors, such as lots of blatantly racist posts on Uncyclopedia that I suppose you have written or uploaded, including a file called "racist(N word).jpg" proves that you are here solely to spread your own opinion. I do not want to get further involved in this conflict of interest, and stopping at the current status quo is the best option possible. Kevindongyt (talk) 14:49, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's too late for you to claim to "not want to get further involved in this conflict of interest". You violated the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest guideline, you got caught. The end result was that the spurious claim of a "vote to merge" two English-language Uncyclopedias was removed and the Uncyclopedia article locked (fully-protected) until July... due to your abuse of the system. Four of your five edits slanted the article to claim that the .co version exists and .ca does not; if someone were to edit the page to claim that "uncyclopedia.co" doesn't exist, I would be just as quick to flag that as a violation of neutrality. You've now crossed the line into libel, by making a false allegation that I'd posted racist content to Uncyclopedia. I'd suggest you should retract this statement?

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Information icon Hello, Q788771. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Uncyclopedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted.

Uncyclopedian to Uncyclopedian, I hope the above will help clarify some things, as your edits so far, both here and on other language projects, seem solely on topic(s) you have a direct relationship to. And while exact policies vary across other projects/languages, generally it's still a good idea to avoid CoI topics even if direct editing is allowed.

Thanks! -— Isarra 07:46, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

July 2019[edit]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Uncyclopedia. Any COI violations once the protection ends tomorrow and you will be reported. Senor Laughs (talk) 19:35, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]


You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Q788771. Thank you.

Sockpuppet investigation[edit]

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Q788771, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
