An admin who had a personal problem with me closed my account on the Persian Wiki due to unfounded suspicions! He accused me of having a previous account on Wikipedia, while I was editing an article that had only been created a few days ago and had not been tampered with pupets ! Then he threatened to block my access if I not revealed my previous account, while I had not edited Wikipedia for nearly ten years and did not have access to my previous account! The admin finally blocked me. Is this attempt by him to discover my identity legal? I assume that the Wiki guidelines are for improving articles, not settling personal scores with users, but on the Persian Wiki, things are differentبیچکوک (talk) 17:43, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
I feel the need to provide more explanations. A content discussion took place between me and a user about the violations that had occurred in the article "Expulsion of Afghans from Iran 1404". The user on my side of the discussion had made an extensive violations like: Wikipedia:Combination and falsification of sources in this article and repeatedly deleted sourced content[1].For another example, this user strangely linked the murder of an Afghan citizen named Kubra Rezaei by her Iranian lover, which was the result of a personal dispute, to the expulsion of Afghans from Iran! And of course, this irrelevant article refers to an article from a source that is about patriarchy! Not about the expulsion of Afghans!And in a way, called it discrimination against Afghans in Iran! This is just one of the small violations that have been committed on this page! However, our discussion was proceeding respectfully and had reached some results. Suddenly, a fa.Wiki admin named Jeeputer came and threatened me and at the same time went to the page of the user on my side of the discussion and told him "If another user, he mean me, interferes with your edits, report him on the bulletin board so that I can block his access!"[2] This was while the violations of the other user were so many that even he had admitted his mistakes! Then this admin came to my talk page and threatened to block my access without any explanation or guidance! about an obvious violence[3] I explained what I meant by my edit on the talk page here, and that it was not a personal attack! Not at all[4]. And finally asked me to reveal my account[5] from ten years ago, which I do not have access to, so that the suspicion of pupets can be removed! While there was no cheating at all in this article and it was just a discussion between us two users! I did not accept this and this admin cut off my unlimited access! He blocked me up not because of a personal attack! Because there was no personal attack at all, it was a false claim, and because it was a false claim, he couldn't lock me up indefinitely for that reason, but he came up with another excuse, "for not revealing my account former 100 years ago," which I neither have access to nor currently has any impact on this article or any other articles! In the end, I pinged several bureaucrats on the Persian Wiki and informed them of the issue[6], but none of them responded! This behavior on the Persian Wiki is truly disappointing and there is no accountability!بیچکوک (talk) 19:51, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
- You need to refer the issue to U4C. RFC is not an appeals court. Ahri Boy (talk) 05:18, 4 September 2025 (UTC)
