I've tweaked the block to disallow editing of your talk page to prevent further edits like this, should you wish to request unblocking you will need to email unblock-en-l@lists.wikimedia.org–xeno (talk) 14:40, 10 October 2008 (UTC) tweaked to allow editing per below
Blanked WikiProject Music talk page
I would have guessed that this edit was an accident. But seeing the header on this page, I'm not so sure. --JD554 (talk) 14:34, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
?
why am i blocked this time, i've been civil and nice and haven't made any sockpuppet accounts and why have somebody posted a retired icon on my user talk page. Above it sais my account was compromised, i don't know what that means but im gessing its something i've done. Can somebody help me understand, i'm a Norwegian boy with bad temper and i want to know the reason for my block. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 19:50, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- First your account being compromised means that someone else has gained access to it and has edited here, and to see why it has been blocked, the edit record shows the story. Someone claims to be your brother and edited using this account while you were away as described here. Accordingly, we need to be sure that only you are able to operate this account, and it's a good idea to change your password and do not store it in your internet browser. I'll leave it for a time while you take a look through the above links. --Rodhullandemu 19:58, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- Here are some diffs for you. If someone did get access to your account, the only thing that strikes me as being strange is that they knew about User:Reaper X/Awayheader and how to transclude it. User:ILOVESEXSOMUCH's contributions don't suggest that he would. Matthewedwards (talk • contribs • email) 20:03, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- Hey Matthew nice to see you, first i have a bad temper but seriously im not the kind of guy which would replace content with FUCK YOU, thats not my kind of style. I don't know how my brother found out about Reaper X i don't really cear okay. I could change password, but i don't know how its done. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 20:26, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- As the Admin who initially blocked your account when I saw, frankly, outrageous editing, and having spent some time with it since, it's clear that some answers are required, if only to clear the air. It appears at first sight that your brother, and I'm fully assuming good faith here, is a new editor, and thus would not know about some of the details of how Wikipedia works. His use of a template from another user would normally indicate some knowledge of a way around here. That's the problem we have here: some questions (1) do you have a brother at all? (2) why would he put at risk your otherwise good editing reputation here? (3) it's clear you share a computer; do you have different accounts on it? (4) a bad temper is somewhat unhelpful on the Internet; in my experience, it only results in having to buy new keyboards and windows from time to time, which isn't helpful (5) and most important: what steps have you taken in relation to your brother using your (valuable) account here? You've got a previous good reputation, and if I were you I'd make sure you don't lose it. Regards. --Rodhullandemu 20:40, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- 1: His name is Trym
- 2: As he said "I did it for fun"
- 3: No i don't have multiply accounts
- 4: Well compared to this i'm pretty good and don't worry i don't break my keyboards and windows. I'm not that bad.
- 5: I've talked to him and he said he won't use my account to vandalise wikipedia. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 20:58, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
