It just so happens that I have a template to recruit other Wikipedians. Contact me on my talk page, and I'll give you the template. I also need to teach you something else. -Go od sh o p 23:28, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, hey! You're in luck! There already is one that you can join: Wikipedia:WikiProject R&B and Soul Music. Have fun! Wikipedia needs new editors like you that are enthusiastic about the project to help out. If you have any other questions, you can ask them here or on my talk page. Cheers!

I am starting a black heritage project for wikipedia.

Can somebody advise how to solicit other Wikipedians to help?

I've moved this to this talk page. Discussions should be conducted on talk pages. - Rjd0060 21:26, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be similar to Wikipedia:WikiProject African diaspora? If so, you can leave a comment there. - Rjd0060 21:28, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bah, beat me to it (edit conflict). You should probably consider joining the above project, although if you feel there's need for a sub-project that works in a more specific area, you are welcome to discuss it with the members of that project. Good luck, and happy editing! Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 21:31, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Thanks

Sure, glad to help. I'm not quite sure what you mean by weird things... I noticed you received a rather severe warning, but I can't really tell what for. You may want to ask the editor what it was for - maybe it'll help clear things up. Happy editing. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 01:52, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock Request

I feel I am being unfairly blocked because of a problem a user is having with someone with this ip.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Claraparks (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I seem to be blocked because of problems another user is having with another user who seems consumed with this person, this does not seem fair to me, there are thousands of people using this ip. I am also concerned that this could be racially motivated, as I am interested in started a project on black singers

Decline reason:

You were blocked for misusing multiple accounts, per Wikipedia:Sock puppetry. Seems pretty open-and-shut to me. Anthøny 19:57, 25 October 2007 (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.

Help request re blocking

I am being blocked because of a dispute a user is having with someone with my ip, what do I do? Does anybody have the customer service number to complain? Claraparks 23:43, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is no customer service number. ~~If you were blocked, it's likely the result of an autoblock.~~ You need to use the {{unblock}} template to get an admin's attention to take a look at the situation. Into The Fray ^T/C 00:01, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I note also that you have been identified as an (apparently confirmed) sockpuppet of multiple users. I doubt sincerely that your request to be unblocked will be accepted. Into The Fray ^T/C 00:05, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking

Please refrain from further blanking of your unblock decline. You are free to request one more admin review your block by using another unblock request. However, you should leave the prior unblock decline visible so that other admins can see that this matter has already been examined. --Yamla 00:28, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
