Invitation to join the Twenty Year Society

Dear Jpgordon,

I'd like to extend a cordial invitation to you to join the Twenty Year Society, an informal group for editors who've been participating in the Wikipedia project for twenty years or more. ​

Best regards, The Herald (Benison) (talk) 03:03, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

  • Decline reason:
  • The 161... address is indeed a blocked proxy. Your 192. address is local just to your device or local router. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 20:43, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, but this response does not actually state a reason for the decline. This is a home internet router. And I haven't edited anything on Widipedia in a very long time. Indeed our fiber hookup was just installed this last week so that IP address should be brand new anyway. -- Mcorazao (talk) 21:14, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for the decline is that the 161... address is indeed a blocked proxy; it's McAfee's anonymization network, which we don't allow under WP:PROXY. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 22:17, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm, dumb question, but is there an easy way to get off that proxy? I use my work computer (from home) a lot and this is the way it is configured. (Not a big deal since I don't plan to get heavily involved with WP again, but still.) -- Mcorazao (talk) 02:48, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hm, I don't know offhand; I've not used anything McAfee in a long time. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 02:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey JP, I noticed your procedural decline at Notwally's Talk page and it dovetailed nicely into this "investigation" I'm doing of a new user named Starinthemirror. I believe they are likely Knowitall369, the user with whom Notwally was edit-warring. Knowitall hasn't edited since I blocked them for 48h on September 11. However, Star has been harassing Notwally on their Talk page and filed a report at ANI (which I removed twice). In addition, Star is saying essentially that Notwally is reverting at various articles without explanation or discussion on the Talk page (the former isn't accurate), which is precisely what Knowitall has complained about. Could you please compare the two?--Bbb23 (talk) 16:57, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lol, please @Jpgordon, give @Bbb23 a hand with investigating this. Honestly, I’d be honored if you thought I joined WP 14-years ago, so no shame there! Go ahead and look into everything thoroughly—compare whatever you need, and investigate this with your full focus. Time waste - @Bbb23you dont own WP. We are all the same and @Notwally Is deleting since 7 week content without any explanaions or discussions in Talk pages. Dont know whats so hard to understand here. Starinthemirror (talk) 17:05, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This one needs to go to a full SPI. My own quick look shows intersections between this new account and a couple of others, with possible connections to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kcosip/Archive, but I don't have time today to do a proper analysis. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 17:24, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do your full analysis ASAP since you’ve gone ahead and accused me of being a sock puppet. Now I’m actually interested to see what you come up with. Starinthemirror (talk) 17:30, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a crazy thought. Maybe the reason Notwally keeps getting accused of the same kind of misbehavior by multiple users is because he repeatedly engages in the same kind of misbehavior. Knowitall369 (talk) 07:29, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

I've noticed it in the same moment and now it looks as if I hadn't noticed myself. Well. :) Thanks. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 03:00, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The jerk factor seems a little elevated recently. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 03:03, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Heh.
I could have guessed that a vandal labeling the removal of BLP violations as "defamatory" might also fake an accepted unblock request, but 331dot did appear in the page history and I didn't (want to?) see the absurdity of the alleged response... ~ ToBeFree (talk) 03:09, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:Kimyoungjini

Hi Jp, nice to see one of your concise declines again. If you haven't already, please look at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Cyonsw. Is Kimyoungjini one of the group that is confirmed to Bleedroots or one of the possilikely group? Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:03, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This one matches Broadcastar. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 15:23, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
