User talk:172.58.217.194

November 2017

Do not use multiple IP addresses to vandalize Wikipedia, like you did at List of Harvard University non-graduate alumni. Such attempts to avoid detection or circumvent the blocking policy will not succeed. You are welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia but your recent edits have been reverted or removed. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Block evasion by User:Daniel C. Boyer. Binksternet (talk) 05:32, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Do not use a user account to vandalize Wikipedia and slander other editors. Such attempts will almost certainly succeed, due to the irrational prejudice and block-headed stupidity of most Wikipedia editors, but they shouldn't be done anyway. Oh, and any edit regarding Kevin Spacey is done by Kevin Spacey, any edit about Tom Cruise by Tom Cruise and any exit about Donald Trump is made by Donald Trump. --172.58.217.194 (talk) 01:19, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for contravening Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 00:55, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I never even remotely violated this policy. This is hogwash. 172.58.217.194 (talk) 01:42, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

You are community banned. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:26, 13 November 2017 (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.

This is, sadly, unquestionably the banned User:Daniel C. Boyer, an obscure "artist" who has been trying to insert himself into various articles since (no kidding) at least 2003. This stupid "You can't prove that only Daniel C. Boyer would promote Daniel C. Boyer" argument has been a cornerstone of his whining for years. E Eng 02:07, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Exactly. Anytime this guy shows up he should be blocked immediately. He's currently blocked as Special:Contributions/172.58.184.161. Binksternet (talk) 02:18, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thanks for your comments. I had blocked based on disruption at the Sara Gilbert and Linda Perry articles, and I was not previously aware of User:Daniel C. Boyer. Having now reviewed the background and the recent editing patterns, there seems little doubt, in my view, that this is a banned editor.

Experience shows this guy doesn't give up, so watchlisting the articles listed at User_talk:Daniel_C._Boyer#Perspiration would be a good idea. E Eng 02:31, 13 November 2017 (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.
