Request for ban case be reviewed

Statement by Eddie Segoura (talk)

I am writing to request that the case leading to Me being banned be reviewed. If the ban is because I tried to repost an article on a neoligism, I've long given up on trying to repost that here and on Wiktionary. If it's because I harassed a member, I've written apology letters them personally. Some have responded and some have not. If I am allowed to return, I will edit constricvely and under this name. I would generally update sport stats and results of Yankees games that I watch. I am truly sorry if I caused anyone personal harm back in 2006 and I hope to put those incidents in the rearview mirror. It's a New Year and I would like to have all things forgiven.

If I am allowed to edit Wikipedia again, I would likely work on pages related to the New York Yankees, keeping the stats of players updated as I watch each game and add info releated to what happens in the 2009 New York Yankees season. I would allow Sarah, Newyorkbrad or any member of the Arbcom to adopt Me and watch whatever I do and keep track of My edits for at least one year after the ban is lifted.

Statement by Dylan620

If Eddie promises to agree to the following restrictions/remedies, and is true to his word about what he says, then I see no reason not to assume good faith and lift his ban.

  • EddieSegoura is limited to one account.
  • Any administrator may ban EddieSegoura from any page he disrupts.
  • EddieSegoura will be assigned a volunteer mentor who will improve his knowledge of Wikipedia policy to the point of further sanctions no longer being necessary.

If Eddie agrees to be true to his word and agree to the above restrictions, I would advise unblocking him, even if only as a test of good faith. --Dylan620 Hark unto me @ 03:06, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Eddie impersonated me, opening an account on the Spanish Wiktionary using my username and vandalizing it, leaving links to my userpage. He has never written a single word of apology. He harassed others on English Wiktionary to the point that our best editor almost quit, and Eddie has not written an apology to him. We are still uncovering examples of his vandalism on English Wiktionary. This week we deleted another page under a name that he invented for a NY subway track. It was difficult to find because the first half of the word was written in Cyrillic letters which looked like Roman letters. He vandalized hundreds of pages on Wiktionary and harassed several of the editors and has never offered an apology. Many of the vandalized pages were created with or moved to names that includes all sorts of invisible characters, so there probably are still others that we have not yet found. —Stephen (talk) 12:04, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Reply to email: The recently discovered instances of vandalism by you are not the result of any recent activity by "bogus users". They are remnants of your very destructive campaign some two years ago. Some of your nonsense is only now being discovered because you entered them using mixed alphabets, weird punctuation, and invisible characters. It is not the work of somebody else, it’s you alone. —Stephen (talk) 14:10, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

A Message from Eddie

Being that it's been many, many months since I tried to reach out to the Arbitration committee asking if I could edit using My real Name again, I'm going to try once again to see if I can discuss it here. I also feel it's best to try and appeal to the community (i.e. the people that know Me)

I've emailed Bunchofgrapes telling Him that I'm sorry for badgering Him back in 2006. He accepted and has not edited lately. Still, there are people (and I won't name names but You know who You are) who are offended by My editing and feel I shouldn't come back here but I've been interested in returning for a while. I've talked to other editors who knew Me well, and I hope they don't mind Me writing this here.

While I can't change the past (and I do regret it), I just asking those who were offended to pardon Me and move on. This was over Me trying to recreate an article about a word that has since been deleted and the article it was supposed to point to was itself merged to yet another article. I've long since moved on.

I admit that I've tried to return as reform user under the name Voltron but despite the contributions, someone still felt it was necessary to continue pursuing Me off the site. I haven't found time recently to make any considerable contributions, but I'm still interested in returning as a constructive editor without having to worry about getting blocked simply for editing.

Therefore, I reach out to those that knew Me in hopes of trying to resolve this by discussing whether or not I can legitimately return without fearing someone is still trying to keep Me from editing. --Eddie Segoura (talk) 12:19, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
