Hard block removal

[edit]

Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

I have granted your account an exemption from IP blocking. This will allow you to edit through full blocks affecting your IP address when you are logged in.

Please read the page Wikipedia:IP block exemption carefully, especially the section on IP block exemption conditions.

Note in particular that you are not permitted to use this newly-granted right to edit Wikipedia via anonymous proxies, or disruptively. If you do, or there is a serious concern of abuse, then the right may be removed by any administrator.

I hope this will enhance your editing, and allow you to edit successfully and without disruption.

Unblocking administrator: Please check for active autoblocks on this user after accepting the unblock request.

Turns out this IP (which I use from work) is blocked - hardly surprising as I believe this proxy is shared by a number of organisations and schools. Would be great if it didn't apply to those logged in, of course ;). --mjec talk 23:33, 9 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

No longer a problem for this account. Hard blocks are only given out when there is serious trouble of abuse of alternate accounts. However, the checkusers can sometimes tell the difference between the problematic user and innocent users using means other than the IP address. In such cases, they give permission to hand out an IP block exemption, which I gave you with permission from Alison. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 14:22, 16 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Salamanca Market article re-write

[edit]

Was trying to help with a backlog of edit requests. I found that Corporate already made the edit you requested but didn't change the template (I did). I read the article. It is useful but it can and should be improved. After the lead, I propose:

  • ==The market== with a description including details that can be documented from reliable sources such as typical attendance, parking and transportation to and from, length in meters or city blocks, and similar. More and better photographs would be great.
    • ===Organization===
      • ====Hobart city government====
      • ====Stallholder's Association====
    • ===Notable Stallholders=== if any local artists/artisans have a separate Wikipedia article.
  • ==History== to include most of the contents now under decade headings.
  • ===Controversy=== such as shown in Stallholder's license threat.
  • ===References=== to more verifiable, reliable sources for the above info.
  • ===External links===

If you can convince a stallholder to join Wikipedia, I can/will act as an independent neutral party to edit the article. I would love to visit the market one deay. I hope we can work to improve the article. I see no real difficulty keeping the tone neutral and encyclopedic. Take care, DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·cont) Join WER 22:14, 12 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Information icon Hello, I'm EndTheWikiEditor. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Ian Donaldson (disambiguation) have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. End (talk) 22:46, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

@EndTheWikiEditor could you say more about why this wasn't constructive? it matches the description of the destination page, "English neo-Nazi musician (1957–1993)" mjec (t/c) 22:48, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
Disambiguation pages are usually kept quite succinct, so I feel like musician summarizes him enough here. We'd add neo-Nazi as a descriptor if there were two Ian Donaldsons who were musicians, one being a neo-Nazi and the other not being a neo-nazi, if that makes sense?
That sort of page just isn't meant to be descriptive to that extent, though if you really want to have that on the disambiguation page, we can have it.
(I may have hit the wrong button on Interceptor - your edit was obviously intended to be constructive, sorry!) End (talk) 22:51, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
@EndTheWikiEditor there is another Ian Donaldson, Scottish singer also on the disambiguation page. I made the edit because I was looking for the neo-Nazi and wasn't sure which he was. I definitely won't die on this hill, but if you're agreeable I would like to revert the revert. mjec (t/c) 22:54, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
Ah, I see the issue here. I'll revert my revert; thanks for explaining your reasoning! End (talk) 22:56, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
@EndTheWikiEditor thanks for patrolling the recent changes! mjec (t/c) 23:01, 15 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
