Request reason:

Wow. This decision is absolutely ridiculous. I was about to revamp the article on the Embassy of Brunei to discover that I have been blocked solely due to one man's prejudice. No actual reason was given, only the logical fallacy of begging the question. --Willy, the master of Wheels (talk) 18:55, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I believe that the name does violate the rules, as being intrinsically disruptive. You can only have picked this name with knowledge about a well-known former prolific vandal. I would be surprised if any admins here were prepared to even consider unblock. Any admin not familiar with the vandal in question is urged to get the past history before taking action. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 20:22, 4 May 2014 (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.

Interesting user name you've chosen. Can you tell us why? Peridon (talk) 19:50, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Because it doesn't violate Wikipedia's rules for usernames. --Willy, the master of Wheels (talk) 20:09, 4 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It is true that I know of Mr. on Wheels. However, my name alone is no basis for calling me a disruptive editor. You should let my edits speak for themselves.

They do. They are at best inappropriate.--Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 19:55, 5 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi. 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/Willy, the master of Wheels, 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.

Requested username:

PowerfulDoughnut (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)

Request reason:

Every single edit I made was constructive. Despite this, they were all reverted and deleted because, as Mr. Anthony Bradbury said, there was a clear prejudice against me. I was blocked for "not being here to contribute to the encyclopedia". However, my edit history (primarily on Willy, creator of all Wheels), if it still existed, would show exactly the opposite. --Willy, the master of Wheels (talk) 23:42, 7 May 2014 (UTC)

Decline reason:

First, your edit history does clear exist for admins. While not necessarily destructive, "every single edit" is not constructive, either. Getting to the crux of the matter here, though: if there is a "clear prejudice against [you]" (which is, in fact, not what Anthony Bradbury said) it's because you chose to use usernames that are deliberately referencing Wikipedia's single most notorious troll, and according to your comment above this was done with full knowledge of Willy's history. Even if you aren't Willy himself coming back for yet another round, this action can only be taken as a form of trolling, in and of itself; the fact you chose to sockpuppet by creating User:Willy, creator of all Wheels just reinforces the fact that an unblock here would not be wise.
