  11. Having attempted a block appeal through an IP talkpage, I now realize
  12. that my IPv6 changes with browser sessions not merely on a daily
  13. basis, rendering me incapable of editing the relevant talkpage very
  14. quickly. Not to make a redundant request or "try my luck", but to have
  15. a venue to get clarification on the basis for judgment as well as an
  16. opportunity for rebuttal, I attempted to open a block appeal ticket.
  17.  
  18. The ticket system however does not recognize my IP as blocked, as the
  19. ticket system appears to only look at my IPv4 address.
  20.  
  21. I attach an offline copy of the page I received upon trying to submit,
  22. which contains my full appeal.

  33. Since the offline copy makes the page appear broken by not including
  34. Javascript, I decided to also attach a screenshot with this following
  35. email.

  44. Hi Jean,
  45.  
  46. I checked with someone who has more experience with UTRS than I do, and
  47. they confirmed the system has issues reading IPv6, and won't accept a
  48. submission if the IP you're currently editing from doesn't look blocked to
  49. it. So I apologize for that, that's a flaw in UTRS.
  50.  
  51. The advice I got to pass on to you, was that you should make the appeal at
  52. talk page of the original IP you got blocked at (
  53. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2600:1700:8680:E900:F0B9:62DB:3DE0:ED35),
  54. and then bookmark it and keep checking back in there. Even if you're later
  55. posting from a different IP, it'll be understood that it's you appealing.
  56. Hopefully that helps.

  68. Well, actually while blocked, I cannot edit any talk page except for
  69. one of the exact IPv6 my browser gives me at that moment. I actually
  70. searched my history to find the talk page I originally attempted my
  71. appeal on, to simply ping the involved administrator to query some
  72. clarification. I couldn't edit that page, because my IPv6 slightly
  73. changed (as such IP'es seem to do).
  74.  
  75. Reading the ANI report mentioned on that talk page by that
  76. administrator, I feel very concerned by how no substantive discussions
  77. went on prior to my block; no one seemed concerned I could not get
  78. notified nor even officially warned about any supposed misbehavior; no
  79. one questioned how I could disruptively edit a semi-protected article
  80. as an IP-editor; no one noticed I made 3 sections about 3 distinct
  81. unrelated issues (neutrality; objectifying language, and; an
  82. inappropriate source restriction banner) nor that I only reverted
  83. edits to the talk page to consistently remove the source restriction
  84. banner after a long period where no one responded to my comments about
  85. why I consider the banner inappropriate for only so long as the
  86. editors who consistently tried to re-add that banner did not respond
  87. to my comments in the talk page, but most of all; every administrator
  88. who has commented so far seems to share an uncontraversial tone as-if
  89. the judgement seems so obvious as to not need explanation or
  90. justification.
  91.  
  92. That last concern, I would classify as disruptive editing by at least
  93. two other editor, trying to overwrite my single change while refusing
  94. to participate in dispute resolution.
  95.  
  96. I further contend, this all stinks of WP:OUTRAGE, especially the
  97. uncontraversial tone.
  98. I believe the bulk of editors, administrator or otherwise, must notice
  99. the technical accuracy within my statements, but feel a balanced
  100. article would require giving way to coverage of views they consider
  101. morally outrageous so they thusly refuse to discuss or allow even
  102. changes no one kind find way to criticize within the perview of the
  103. wikipedia guidelines. I even got accused of attempting to
  104. WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS as an almost immediate response to the a post
  105. starting with the sentence: "You are just repeating over and over that
  106. you consider suicide an issue, just specifying differently nuanced
  107. situations, but I'll express this one situation that's not nuanced at
  108. all." Of course, I immediately responded with a post including the
  109. sentence: "By trying to tell an editor I disagree with their "great
  110. wrong" suddenly I'm trying to "right a great wrong"."
  111.  
  112. Shortly after my block, someone spoilered the entire section I created
  113. explaining the reasoning for why the article objectifies people by
  114. opting for the term "risk factor" where the term "motivation" could
  115. just as well apply, as well as reasons relating to neutrality as well
  116. as general ethics for why the article should avoid moralizing language
  117. like that, with no more summary or explanation than they consider the
  118. section a rant. Well, even if accurate, I've read many early wikipedia
  119. discussions for as well as against capital G, "god", which certainly
  120. would deserve the classification "rant" but certainly posed very
  121. necessary arguments. I genuinely detest arguing, but I detest even
  122. more decision-makers acting Quxiote with regards to their process for
  123. making decisions when those decisions affect a great many people
  124. directly or indirectly but very potently.

  137. Excuse me, I meant that second to last concern.
  138. I added an extra concern, post-editing without noticing I needed to
  139. update the first sentence in the next paragraph to refer to the
  140. correct concern.

  151. Ok, so post on whichever IP you're presently on, and just make a note that
  152. you're the IP from Talk:Suicide. Add a link to the original IP in your
  153. request, and make a note that you're having trouble with dynamic IP and may
  154. not be able to respond on the same page. Then bookmark it so you don't lose
  155. it.
