You have been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not. If you are not a sock puppet, and would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text{{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

NPrice (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I'd forgotten about being blocked five years ago for a bit of youthful vandalism, and I made an account recently and have followed the rules. Through diligent investigation by User:Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry (aka Columbo - just kidding, but he even sent me photos of myself he dug up online!), my mistake had been exposed and I was immediately and permanently banned again without question. Had I remembered about the old account, I would've requested an unblock on it, rather than created a new account and started constructively editing the encyclopedia. It's been years, and I've been constructive with my edits, although admittedly they are mostly small except for a couple articles on pro audio gear I was working on writing. I think I deserve a second chance. This block is effectively about something I did five years ago and forgot about, and not related to any recent Wikipedia activity. Also, I find these IRC logs relevant (used with permission): 01:28 <nprice> when i recently started editing again, i'd forgotten i was blocked in 2006 for being a moron 01:29 <nprice> lol 01:29 <zscout370> those are the people I am not worried about 01:29 <zscout370> we always tell users like yourself to just get new accounts Thank you for your consideration. nprice (talk) 1:09 am, Today (UTC−4)
Decline reason:
It may have been years, but you still seem drawn to the edits that got you blocked the first time around. You're obviously not here to edit constructively. TNXMan 14:06, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
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.
- I'm not going to review this, having already found this user insulting/attacking at least one editor on Wikipedia since his return. I'm not sure how anyone can claim "oh, I forgot I had an account", and I'm not sure how Zscout370's suggestion has merit - he's a Commons admin, but I do not believe he's an en.Wikipedia admin. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 10:33, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Zscout370 is an admin here (his home wiki), as well as a global admin - as is shown here. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 11:30, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Let's not forget that the person behind NPrice also operated Dominotree - and that account was itself blocked for being a 'GNAA troll sockpuppet'. My recent discussion with him on IRC also contradicts what he said to Zscout370 on IRC. I'd be happy to accept a CLEANSTART here, but given that he went straight back to the original subject of his editing, and that he was previously blocked for socking, and the insulting edits listed at Special:DeletedContributions/NPrice, I don't think CLEANSTART applies really. The Cavalry (Message me) 13:44, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- That's the point, you banned me BECAUSE that account was banned, and now your argument is "Oh, look! His other account was banned too, so this ban is valid!" - it's circular logic. Furthermore, at this point, I think you've participated in many more GNAA-related discussions and whatnot than I have, and is there something wrong with doing so? It's a reason I'm here, true, but it's far from the only one. The previous ban was for trolling, not sockpuppeting (there is no other account that was associated with that one, besides this new one, that I am aware of), so saying I was previously banned for sockpuppeting is inaccurate. I've done nothing recently to warrant a permanent ban other than simply being here. Also, you can refer to me by my name, you have all my information and you sent me photos of myself you sleuthed up online (I suppose in an attempt to either scare me or to show off). You don't need to call me "the person behind NPrice". nprice (talk) 16:14, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- what insulting edits? On one occasion he critiqued an article writer's English skills. If he was an established member of the community we'd just be sending him to become a reviewer at WP:FAC. Everything else is certainly enough to justify an indefinite block, so there's no need to rely on hokum and bunkum-themed evidence to seal the deal. Ironholds (talk) 15:56, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

- I'd like to see examples of any edits other than the single one previously mentioned which could be deemed "unconstructive". Sometimes my sarcasm level can be a bit high, but I haven't done anything to damage the encyclopedia or its articles. Were this account taken on its own merits, it certainly would not have earned a permanent ban, and even if CLEANSTART had applied, there'd be no reason for a permanent block. nprice (talk) 16:22, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

NPrice (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
(I am rephrasing and paraphrasing my argument here) - I was banned in 2006 because I was being hostile, and ended up making a few very stupid IP edits, which ended up getting me banned for sockpuppeting (although I did only have a single account and am not sure if it really qualifies as sockpuppeting). Were I granted a WP:CLEANSTART, with this new account, I don't believe anything I've done would warrant anything more than a warning/coaching. I did make a single edit that was a bit harsh in retrospect, but I've participated in discussions honorably, made constructive edits to articles, and have been working on drafting a few new articles. Yes, I have participated in GNAA-related discussions, because they interest me as it's such a polarizing topic. Participating in said discussions should not be taken as anything other than giving my own input, and not as something more sinister - WP:AGF. If this account hadn't been "linked" to the one from five years ago, I wouldn't've been blocked for anything I've done recently, and the same is true if I had been granted a WP:CLEANSTART. In a discussion with Zscout370, I was told it was common policy for admins to let users start new accounts, and that what I'd done shouldn't be a problem. I'd really just like to put all this behind me (and, after five years, I thought it *WAS* behind me) and continue editing some of the stubs I've been working on expanding and finishing some of the drafts I've started. I'll even voluntarily stay away from some of the more "volatile" topics if it'd help put peoples' minds at ease. nprice (talk) 18:43, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You keep quoting WP:CLEANSTART - have you even read it - the section (near the top) Clean start is not a means to resume similar conduct while concealing a past track record. A clean start is permitted only if there are no active bans, blocks or sanctions (including, but not limited to those listed here) in place against your old account. could not be much clearer. The normal advice in these cases is to go back to your old account and get that unblocked first. If that gets unblocked then you may mark that account as retired and do a WP:CLEANSTART if you so desire. Ronhjones (Talk) 19:02, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
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.
- I no longer have access to said account, how would I go about doing so? nprice (talk) 19:04, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

NPrice (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Let's hope the third time's the charm, my old account (and the reason of this block) at User:Dominotree has been unblocked and marked as retired, so I'd like to do a WP:CLEANSTART, as suggested by Ronhjones in the previous unblock request.
Decline reason:
Given that your editing pattern under this account has been both unconstructive and very similar to that which led to your original block, this clearly doesn't fall under the provisions of WP:CLEANSTART. I see no evidence of you seriously wanting to contribute to building an encyclopedia. Nick-D (talk) 10:45, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

- Can you please cite more than a single unconstructive edit? I doubt it. As is typical, you've viewed my contribution history, noted the subject matter, and immediately assumed it was invalid without actually looking at any of it. The block reason is now totally irrelevant, and I was not blocked for being "unconstructive", as you claim. Nobody has been able to cite me being "unconstructive", besides a single deleted edit, anyhow. nprice (talk) 14:05, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

NPrice (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I am gonna try this again, and hopefully an admin looks into it a bit further than most have. I was recently blocked under this account because during an IRC discussion, an administrator noted that I had an account from 2006 that had been banned, and permanently blocked this account. Under the provisions of CLEANSTART, I had the block on the previous account removed and had it retired, and I am now requesting that this account be unblocked, as the "Sock of Dominotree" reason is now invalid. The only response I've gotten so far is that my edits are "unconstructive", which is blatantly false, and does not address the issue at hand. Administrators have reviewed my edit history and noticed that I've been involved in GNAA-related discussions, and assumed that I was here to only cause disruption, but that's entirely untrue. If it'd make any difference, I'd voluntarily step away from editing or discussing any "volatile" articles. There is a single edit that I made that was subsequently deleted that could've been deemed "unconstructive" but I doubt any of my current edits could be called anything near that. I'm working on my own drafts, I'm civil during my topic discussions, and I fix things with other articles when I find something wrong. If you're gonna call me unconstructive, at least read and cite some edits. I haven't done anything on this account coming anywhere near warranting a permanent block, and the reason for the original block has been reverted. nprice (talk) 14:27, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
Decline reason:

- Comment: I did notice (del/undel) 03:05, 27 July 2011 Daniel Case (talk | contribs | block) unblocked "Dominotree (talk | contribs)" (user has started a new account; wants to clear things up here). Is there newer consensus to ban and is this block still applicable? --slakr\ talk / 16:13, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
- I got that cleared up per Ronhjones when he closed the previous unblock request, and said "The normal advice in these cases is to go back to your old account and get that unblocked first. If that gets unblocked then you may mark that account as retired and do a WP:CLEANSTART if you so desire." - As that reads to me, I've followed his instructions to be unblocked here. nprice (talk) 16:18, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
- Wow. Just wow. My NPrice account was blocked because my old Dominotree account was blocked. I took the steps I was told to get Dominotree unblocked, and now the admin who unblocked Dominotree saw that this account had been blocked, and reblocked Dominotree. NPrice is blocked because Dominotree is blocked, and Dominotree is blocked because NPrice is blocked. This is ridiculous, can't anyone step up and fix this? nprice (talk) 03:54, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- And a simple request. If you're gonna say that I am being unconstructive, or that I'm exhibiting past behaviors, please cite some edits that prove a pattern of this. I was previously banned for trolling, and aside from a single removed edit, it's clear that it's not going on anymore. Again, I've done nothing unconstructive, and nothing that warrants a ban. I am just stuck in a catch-22 while certain admins chase their tails trying to keep me banned for no reason. nprice (talk) 04:22, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- Let's go over this again. I was blocked not for ANY actions of this account, only because my previous account was blocked in 2006 and I'd forgotten. I got that account unblocked and retired it, requested an unblock, during which time people said I was being unconstructive, without being able to cite anything. Because *somehow* those baseless opinions factor into this, I remained banned, and the administrator who'd unbanned my previous account was informed (in a very biased manner) that my unblock request for this account was denied, and then was suggested that he re-ban my previous account (likely just as an excuse to deny a legitimate unblock request from this account). If I'd gotten the previous account dealt with first, I'd never have earned a ban on this account. Now, because I got the order wrong, I'm still banned, for no good reason. nprice (talk) 04:38, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- The Dominotree (talk · contribs) account was blocked in 2004 for being a GNAA sleeper account. In 2006 the block was briefly lifted, but then reinstated on the groups that checkuser had found that it was a GNAA troll account. In 2011 you return having conveniently forgotten that you already had an account and then make mainly GNAA related edits (for instance, your first edit with this account was for the DRV for Gay Nigger Association of America: [1]). The pattern is pretty clear. Note that attacking admins isn't going to get the block lifted. Nick-D (talk) 07:49, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
NPrice, regardless of "the order of things", the primary issue is clearly the pattern of editing. As it seems to be the area that gets you and others into trouble, are you willing to accept a 1-year topic ban from GNAA (broadly construed), including related talkpages? (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 10:55, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- As I've stated several times, on this talk page, yes. nprice (talk) 13:48, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
- In fact, I stated so in my last unblock request, had anyone actually read it. nprice (talk) 17:05, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
Unblocked
This serves as public notice that NPrice has been unblocked following an appeal on IRC in the #wikipedia-en-unblock channel. With the consent of User:Chase me ladies, I'm the Cavalry, who has been asked to confirm his consent here, NPrice has agreed to the following restrictions regarding his editing, which we believe will resolve the majority of the concerns raised above.
- NPrice is subject to a topic ban, covering all namespaces, in which he may not involve himself in editing or discussion of topics related to the Gay Nigger Association of America, broadly construed. This topic ban is of indefinite length.
- Violations of the above topic ban, as determined by any uninvolved administrator, will result in an immediate block of a minimum of one week in duration. Blocks may be extended up to indefinite length for repeated or particularly egregious violations.
- After a period of one year, NPrice may, having demonstrated constructive efforts to improve the encyclopedia elsewhere, appeal this topic ban on the Administrator's noticeboard. The topic ban may then be lifted with the consensus of the community.
If anyone has any questions regarding this action, please contact me for a log of the discussion in the unblock channel. Public logging of this channel is permitted for this purpose. To NPrice, thank you for your cooperation, and happy editing. Hersfold (t/a/c) 20:15, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
- I can confirm that the above discussion took place as Hersfold described. NPrice was very polite, and addressed all the issues raised honestly and courteously. I would also note that the ban includes "but is not limited to, topics such as ANUS [American Nihilist Underground Society], Goatse Security, people affiliated with those topics, etc. That said, I think we have a constructive user here - NPrice, feel free to come to me for any questions/problems you have. No hard feelings, I hope! The Cavalry (Message me) 20:25, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Rollback
![](http://up.wiki.x.io/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/Wikipedia_Rollback.png/220px-Wikipedia_Rollback.png)
After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback can be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback may be removed at any time.
If you do not want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Happy editing! Malinaccier (talk) 23:36, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Recent vandal
The editor you just warned, User:MrMinority, vandlized Rolling Papers (album) again. Does this warrant a block? Dan56 (talk) 01:28, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Revert?
Hi, just wondering why I received a warning for my edit on the Virginia Page. I was simply reverting an earlier edit with the text "Virginia is Gay" and did not intentionally make an unconstructive edit If this is indeed the case, I assure you the edit was Made in good faith. Tarheel95 (Sprechen) 03:44, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
- My apologies, I was trying a new anti-vandalism tool and in certain cases, if the timing is right, it will let me rollback a page after a legitimate user already fixed it, putting the vandalism back and adding a warning to the legitimate user's page. I'd done that a couple times tonight and figured out how to avoid it, I must've missed it when I accidentally rolled your edit back. Anyways, just pretend I didn't do it :) nprice (talk) 03:47, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In Kick-Ass 2, you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Sadism (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Rock Hudson
Why did you remove my edit of the Rock Hudson page including him in the "Gay Actors" section?
- Sorry, it was an accident, I undid my changes. nprice (talk) 03:42, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
That was I think around the 7000th edit I've made to WP, thank you for welcoming me to the project. One of the articles I started was that on Margaret Gelling PhD, sometime president of the British Placename Society, and author as referenced in the note. If you are trying to navigate around England (and particularly if you were a Celt prior to displacement by the Saxons and whatnots) you would be helped in doing so if you knew that a Coombe is a particular shaped scoop out of the side of a hill. Our ancestors had many names for hill, whcih again, before the advent of GPS, writing and maps gave a useful way of describing a route. It is still useful, actually, you can see the Coombe near Taunton and pick the right road. I think you are wholly wrong to describe that edit as vandalism, although by all means find a different way of noting the connection between geopgraphy and placename there, and please l;et me know what you have decided is better. Midgley (talk) 04:39, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- Starting I see in December 2004. Perhaps I should welcome you to the project? Welcome. Midgley (talk) 04:41, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- The manner in which you phrased your edit made it sound as if you were attempting to add a joke or humor (which would obviously be inappropriate for encyclopedic content) to the article. I can now see that you were not vandalizing the article, so I apologize for the revert/notice. You also might want to consider citing content you add to Wikipedia (this *is* an encyclopedia, after all, someone who's been here as long as you have should be aware of those requirements.) I'd suggest rephrasing it somehow and re-adding it, along with a proper citation so it doesn't appear to be original research. I have no qualms with it as long as it is a legitimate edit and not intended as humor. Also, I get it, you've been here a few months longer than I have. I don't see how it's relevant. nprice (talk) 04:44, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- I suggest that since you recognise your edit was a mistake, and that your rapid pasting of a warning about vandalism was also in error, you make the correction - reverting your reversion. I accept your apology. By all means delete your addition to my talk page. I'd suggest if you are unsure about the place of an edit, the talk page for the article is actually a better place to mention it. WP is not American (there is probably a WP:NOT_AMERICAN page somewhere. WHat may appear as humor to one person, may not be intended as humour by an Englishman. A few, round here, tends to mean a single digit number, but that also may vary from continent to continent. Midgley (talk) 04:58, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- Cite a source (saying something is "clear" or "obvious" doesn't count on Wikipedia) and calm down. It's not a big deal, and please, feel free to do what you will to your own pages and articles. I still personally believe your edit has no place on the page as-is, however. The notice/warning was quick, indeed, because I use an automated tool to revert vandalism, that way users such as yourself have more free time to harangue me about removing an unsourced quip they wrote. If you want to revert the article, feel free to do it yourself, and increment that huge 7000 edit count you've amassed over all this time. nprice (talk) 05:00, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- "Quip"? Why? Doesn't look like one to me. JamesBWatson (talk) 13:32, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- Well it does to me, but either way, "Clearly" or "Obviously" are not the same as sourcing a statement. I already apologized for the mis-revert, explained why it happened, and said to edit as he pleases. I thought this was over. I have no qualms with the article as it currently exists. Is Midgley (talk) getting other people involved in this non-event after-the-fact? nprice (talk) 16:45, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Hiya NPrice, I've removed your db-nonsense since the material in this article is easily understandable. I've asked that it be IAR-deleted (plus it's semi-attack-ish), but it definitely isn't complete gibberish. Thanks, Nolelover Talk·Contribs 02:19, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Hey NPrice, how are you? I am Petrb, one of huggle developers, and you are currently subscribed as a beta tester of huggle on meta (meta:Huggle/Members. You may not have noticed, but this week I released first beta precompiled installers for ubuntu and microsoft windows! Wikipedia:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta has all the links you need. So if you can, please download it, test it and report all bugs that is really what we need now. Don't forgot that as it's just a beta it's unstable and there are some known issues. Be carefull! Thank you for helping us with huggle Petrb (talk) 16:23, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
We need your help testing latest huggle
Hello,
I am sending you this message because you listed yourself on meta:Huggle/Members as a beta tester. We desperately need attention of testers, because since we resolved all release blockers, we are ready to release first official version of huggle 3! Before that happens, it would be nice if you could test it so that we can make sure there are no issues with it. You can download it packaged for your operating system (see Wikipedia:Huggle/Huggle3_Beta) or you can of course build it yourself, see https://github.com/huggle/huggle3-qt-lx for that. Don't forget to use always latest version, there is no auto-update message for beta versions!
Should you find any issue, please report it to wikimedia bugzilla, that is a central place for huggle bugs, where we look at them. That is i mportant, if you find a bug and won't report it, we can't fix it. Thank you for your work on this, if you have any questions, please send me a message on my talk page, I won't be looking for responses here. Thanks, Petrb (talk) 15:15, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
