Should we add this to the list of qualifiers for a lock?
- Users who use a block on a public wiki to deliberately cause collateral damage.

- Like when a user, who is blocked, knowingly tries to edit from other IPs to extend the autoblock to other users? I think that's a niche enough case that we don't need to add that here, and it can be resolved at the local level. â Ajraddatz (talk) 16:01, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Unblock
I request the immediate and urgent unblocking of my AgorahillsCW account. While I acknowledge my wrongdoing in admitting to a lack of sources and circumventing the block, I ask for forgiveness and also request a full blocking by filing a complaint against the user Tisourcier for harassment of users who provide real sources, which he deletes behind their backs for no reason.

- Not done file a proper un(l)block request via Special:Contact/stewards and follow local guidelines like en:Wikipedia:Appealing a block as well in order to ask for a return on project like enwiki instead of circumventing both your local blocks as well as the global locks with new sockpuppets again and again. --Johannnes89 (talk) 06:23, 13 September 2025 (UTC)
More bullet points for preference over global blocks
Can someone add these bullet points? If not, reply with your objections:
- Abuse-only accounts
- The user is a confirmed sockpuppet on at least one project
Faster than Thunder (talk) 00:15, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
- Sockpuppetry doesn't automatically qualify an account for global locks, that's also true for "abuse-only", both usually require xwiki abuse, otherwise local admins can handle it. Johannnes89 (talk) 16:57, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
- But if #1 refers to throwaway accounts rather than long-term users, and #2 refers to a serious offense (sockpuppetry) even if any abuse is not severe, how about:
- cross-wiki sockpuppetry is involved
- the account is a cross-wiki abuse-only account (throwaway)
