 * this user is back, please block him again 105.186.239.76 12:50, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * keeps removing content. Android 1123581321 (talk) 13:50, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Is edit-warring their vid into Fishing. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 14:32, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree, it's been going on for a couple of days now. Based on the videos, it seems like a kid trying to self-promote. Also replaced a video in a tutorial so the new video was out of context. Amatulic (talk) 16:24, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Can we voice our opinions here, or should we use the talk page? Anyway, can something like assume-good-faith-policy be applied here? I had a discussion with the person elsewhere and it seems the situation is resolved, and their actions were due to ignorance of guidelines and wiki rules, not malice. Unless the edit warring continues, I'd like to vouch for them. Blue Banana whotookthisname (talk) 18:21, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I disagree. The user has re-added the video to fishing and I just reverted it a couple minutes ago. What we have here is either incompetence or bad faith. A 24-hour block is appropriate for edit-warring. Amatulic (talk) 18:41, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I note that they are now editing under an actual user account. Their edits on Desert Pyramid include more tutorial stuff and an innocuous but misspelled addition.  JEC6789 reverted the tutorial stuff, I fixed the mispelling. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 22:10, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * actions indicate a vandal-only account. Many edits so far in the contribution history, nothing constructive. Amatulic (talk) 18:48, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
 * sockpuppet of . TheGreatSpring (talk | contribs) (Tagalog translation) 02:00, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
 * One of the problems I've observed on this wiki is that there is no appeals process established for blocked editors. They can write on their talk page, but no admin may see it. The blocked user isn't given any instructions how to appeal, and there isn't any category listing of pending appeals that administrators can check. So a blocked user who wants to make constructive edits has no choice but to become a sockpuppet. The English Wikipedia has a good process that works. Every block notice template includes instructions (for example wikipedia:Template:Uw-block) for the template to use to appeal a block, and a user who applies that template gets automatically added to a category page of appeals (see wikipedia:Category:Requests for unblock).
