I tried to click on your your antiques roadshow youtube video but it doesn't work. If not signed in then it tells me to sign if. If signed in it says I don't have permission.

Oh interesting. I've fixed it; try this. Thanks! --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 22:39, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Still doesn't work for me. Perhaps you need to geolocate to the USA if it's PBS and that would explain first link not working as well as this one? Just a theory. Anyway your second link has a transcript which satisfies my mild curiosity as to what it was about! 2A02:8011:EB50:0:A8B1:4C53:8D3F:9B6D (talk) 00:38, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, currently on the visa policy pages for countries around the world.. an editor is editing using multiple accounts.

He is [User:DENOSIO] and his puppets, who have already been blocked several times.

When looked at their history, he wrote a lot of inaccurate information, which caused friction with other editors.

First of all, I ask you to block the accounts that appear to be his puppets.

7. 46.166.xx

Their speaking style and editing style are similar to the puppets that have already been blocked several times.

If the above measures are difficult, please set the 'VISA POLICY' pages of all countries in the world (198 countries) to allow only long-term certified users to post.

At least I think there will be less writing done by DENOSIO's puppets.

Since I also violated WIKIPEDIA while 'defending' DENOSIO, I am 'prepared' to be punished for it and am posting a message to the administrator.

Thank you. Lades2222 (talk) 13:00, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I saw your edit even though I cited professional sources from academic scholars. How come? Pier1999 (talk) 15:07, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Well, perhaps you might go back and look at the sentences you added: "and according to accademic scholars one the most influential music artist of the 20th century". "According to experts was also a politically conscious activist voice for Black America.". Do you notice any problems with these sentences? What's an "accademic scholar" as opposed to any other sort of scholar? The sourcing is good; the use of language isn't. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 15:19, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
I added that content into the lead using those sources and good language. But there is a user who always takes everything away, how should you behave? Pier1999 (talk) 10:54, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello! User:Yfyyejgjwguj seems to be a sock of User:Vwqvj qwhiu. They have nearly identical userpages (see the infobox in particular). The latter is blocked, the former is not. Could you look into this please? GrayStorm^{(Talk|Contributions)} 03:27, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Sure is. Blocked. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 03:59, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
