Continued Issues With Inappropriate Wiki
Thank you for removing the bulk of the libelous content, but unfortunately I was made aware of similar content on the same wiki (https://truecapitalist.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page) making allegations that are untrue:

https://truecapitalist.miraheze.org/wiki/Jackler on the bottom paragraph it refers to myself as a "pedophile" an extremely false statement. This is abusive behavior, and defamation toward myself made by this wiki, which seems to be premised on articles meant to insult and harass individuals they've targeted.

User:Rich1309275768‎
This is an obvious bad-faith edit (supposedly complete personal information does not match username; use of Cyrillic characters) made by a person or 'bot trying to determine whether this wiki is actively maintained. 00:21 28-Mar-2020

A Problem on Atrocious YouTubers Wiki
Kesner blocked me for “BEinG a WhiTEKniGhT oF a cERtaiN ToXic uSEr”. Not that I ACTUALLY did anything. Can you please undo my block, and possibly punish Kesner instead?

NutScript Adoption Correction
To any admins reading this. The NutScript Adoption request by Otunga needs to be voided / overlooked. Otunga has been permanently banned from the NutScript Community due to Proven situations he was involved in with Fraudulent and scamming behaviors. The creator of NutScript is Chessnut and his successor Black RebelTea. This user "Otunga" is merely trying to adopt the wiki to delete it, if not flood it with material nothing related to the script. He does not develop for the Script, nor have any useful attributes to it. He is merely a mapper on a game called Garry's Mod; giving him the wiki will just destroy what we have had. The owner and lead developers will be on tomorrow to try and overthrow it / claim it also so this does not happen.

Dragon Quest Wiki activity
I have a little problem: On the Dragon Quest Wiki, which I have created, there is sometimes the message that the wiki would be inactive and that it will be closed soon, BUT there is quite a lot activity ! Why is this message there?! Can somebody help me please?

Page protection needed
User talk:209.239.100.126 needs to semi protected for the duration of the rangeblock affecting the IP address, as this particular IP in the range is posting gibberish and obscenities to their talk page. There does not appear to be enough talk page disruption across the range to merit a range-wide removal of talk page access (unless there are deleted talk page edits that I can't see). Amanda Catherine (talk) 23:49, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Revoked TP as IP Range is static, not dynamic - history of abuse on the range so sufficient to revoke TP to me if it continues on a talk page. Legitimate users can appeal via email. John (talk) 00:12, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Proposed Community ban for Sourav Halder

 * The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * Consensus to block, additionally with the request to make it global the following applies:

John (talk) 19:24, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Sourav Halder, as a person, is banned from Meta for a period of 3 months,
 * His account and all existing accounts (whether disclosed or undisclosed) are to be globally locked,
 * Any appeals to the lock will be heard by the community (processed by Stewards) after the Meta ban expires.

I am writing this to propose a local ban (Meta only) on Sourav Halder. While the reason of my original 1 month block (disruptive editing) may have not been that appropriate, I would like to request that the local community bans him from Meta for a pariod of 3 months. This user may seem that they are just asking for help, but there have been multiple cases of them insisting on us resolving his requests (by email as well as talkpages) and they keep trying to rush us when we told them to be patient. He has also violated the Code of Conduct on IRC and in other areas (contacting people via PM when they told him not to do so). Here are examples of specific instances that prove that this user is wasting our time and not just looking for help:
 * After having violated the CoC by not being respectful and accusing RhinosF1 of lying when that was not the case as well as other non respectful comments to us, he was asked to leave which he did only this was his leave message: Sourav was ← sourav left : "fuckyou"
 * After requesting multiple custom domains, I took time to configure them (after already being pressured to do it "quickly") only to find out that the next day he was requesting that we delete those wikis. He continued to make numerous wiki requests and frivolous requests on Phabricator.

Outside of Meta/Miraheze he's also been blocked for not being able to respect policies or behave (while this is not a reason for a Meta ban, it puts things into context):
 * He's been blocked on TestWiki for not being able to respect local policies there and for saying he wouldn't do something only to do it after. (he still keeps insisting on getting unblocked after he has been told he wouldn't be many times, and after he has been given many chances)
 * He is globally locked on the WMF projects as a Long-term abuser.

Therefore I think it is clear that this user is just here to waste our time and to misbehave, so I propose the 3 month ban imposed by the Meta community. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:45, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Support

 * 1)  as proposer. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:45, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 2)  I have looked at the contributions and it looks like this user is quite conflictual and has already been blocked on Meta and on exterior wikis. The IRC message mentioned is unacceptable; saying that to the dedicated volunteers that work hard for us and this project. I feel that this user is just looking for trouble and to waste time as OP says and their block at the Wikimedia project also shows that they are not "looking for help". This user needs a break to learn how to be polite and respectful of the people and this community that are helping him for free. Three months is a good time to let them reflect. DeeM28 (talk) 08:09, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Whom have I spoken with disrespect? -- Sourav  Talk... 08:26, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm Miraheze I like to work and I have contributed wellAnd I'm not blocking all wikis, -- Sourav  Talk... 08:32, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * DeeM28 In the meantime why am I blocked to meta.How guilty I am.Explaining below. -- Sourav  Talk... 09:07, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 1)  More than enough rope has been given. They've been blocked, apologised and broke rules immediately after. They show no indication of improving.  ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  09:20, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Do you think I did any bad editing after the first block And that's what If you say a little -- Sourav  Talk... 10:11, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I do, evidence has been laid out clearly by others. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  10:12, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 1)  I would go as far as to suggest an indefinite ban from Meta, and perhaps a 6 month or longer global community ban from Miraheze. I don't usually suggest such strong sanctions, but this editor has definitely exhausted their rope and the good faith of many others, including myself (coming from someone who usually pushes AGF more than the average). Amanda Catherine (talk) 13:05, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 2)  I was one of the people who asked for this ban proposal. While I normally like to AGF when dealing with users, Sourav Halder appears to be here only to waste our time and has used up all the good faith I have in me. This is not needed on Miraheze. -EK ● 📝 ● 🌎 13:21, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 3)  It's all been said by the other fellows. A three-month break should make him reflect on his behavior. Hispano76 (talk) 13:42, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 4)  I strive to assume good faith whenever I can, but Sourav Halder seems to be cutting it fine right now. WickyHoney (talk) 13:46, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * 5) . "Asking to be blocked" below is the last straw, if there weren't already several.  Anyone can "block himself" by simply going away, unless his real intention is to (1) seek attention or (2) make a separation "someone else's fault."   20:19 4-May-2020
 * 6)  Please globally block indefinitely. This user has triggered the abuse filter on sdiywiki for posting off topic spam. --Rob Kam (talk) 17:09, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Comments
notice: I want to be blocked knowing Stewards opinion before blocking the world Before leaving Miraheze, I gave my opinion in Bengali 'আমি উইকিপিডিয়া নতুন ছিলাম কিছু সংখ্যক ভুলের কারণে আমাকে অবরুদ্ধ করা হয় পরে Miraheze সাথে পরিচয় হয় এরপর Miraheze এ কাজ শুরু করি অনেক ভুলভ্রান্তি হয়েছি কিন্তু এমন কিছু কাজ আছে যেগুলো আমি করিনি এরপরেও আমাকে বলা হচ্ছে আমি করেছি (যেমন নিজেকে ভোট দেওয়ার) সত্যি কথা বলতে আমি Miraheze  এ ভালোবেসে কাজ করছিলাম কিন্তু আমাকে আপনারা ভুল বুঝলে শেষ পর্যায়ে আমি একটি নতুন ডোমেইন নিয়েছিলাম এই জন্য বার বার উইকির জন্য আবেদন করেছিলাম। এরপরেও আমিও এই উইকি টি জনপ্রিয় করার জন্য বিভিন্ন পদক্ষেপ গ্রহণ করেছিলাম।এর জন্য একটি ডোমেইন নিয়েছি  এর জন্য খুবই দুঃখিত আপনাদের বিভিন্ন ভাবে বিরক্ত করেছি এখন আমি Miraheze থেকে leave নিতে চলেছি কিন্তু যাবার আগে বলতে চাই আমার শেষ অনুরোধ রাখলে আমি খুশি হয়ে আরো ভালো কাজ করতাম আমি শুধু বিভিন্ন অধিকার দাবি করছিলাম যে গুলো পাওয়ার জন্য ও আমি যথেষ্ট ছিলাম এটাই হয়তো ছিল আমার দ্বিতীয় অপরাধ।' I'm requesting you to block golobal across all wikis, not just meta Miraheze. -- Sourav  Talk... 14:11, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Can you please clarify? Do you really wish to be globally locked? Take note that you will be unable to edit on any Miraheze wiki. Thank you -EK ● 📝 ● 🌎 14:27, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes I understand,Give me chance if Miraheze doesn't block now I'm ready to work --  Sourav  Talk... 14:40, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

I demand proper justice on this issue. First of all, I admit that I wasted some time on custom domains,And the rest of the problems you are talking about may be that I have contacted them for cooperation.And to get their help.I request you to block me after investigating these matters.I am seeking your help for this Stewards'. -- Sourav  Talk... 06:54, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * (disruptive editing)Do a little investigation of where I did it -- Sourav  Talk... 06:59, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Public test wiki(I didn't waste anyone's time) There was reason to block  ConsulBlock Unanimous agreement of multiple people. Signifcant wasting of others time and effort.I am also requesting to investigate this.And I request you to investigate the rest of the problems --  Sourav  Talk... 07:03, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I have left messages and emails on the talk page for responsible users for help and support.Also not on any other subject.Didn't send disrespectful messages to anyone -- Sourav  Talk... 07:08, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * You notice,Hope you understand,I asked for help from many people while working on Wikipedia but no one Blocked me.Rather encouraged.Wants to discuss a little about my first block to meet.The first reason I was blocked was because of abuse of multiple accounts. Hmm,The reason I opened multiple accounts was to create bots, But I did not abuse all these accounts,All these accounts are just used in my wiki.RhinosF1 Suspicion blocks me,And he blocked me (the next verification is that my IP does not match the puja and Ripon's IP) but there was another account just blocking for him on my wiki. I want to say one thing I want to develop Miraheze not harm.  Another thing I noticed is Shaunak Chakraborty interwiki Administrato He has multiple accounts but I think he is never blocked. --  Sourav  Talk... 08:49, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * To respond to your claims. First of all, I have already explained how your "asking for help" is being done in a way that does not respect the Code of Conduct and that is not respectful to us. Second of all, the claim that you are not blocked on the WMF is false as you were globally locked there for Long-term abuse. Here on Meta RhinosF1 blocked you for sockpuppetry because you voted for yourself with other accounts on an RfX which is contrary to policy. The user you mention Shaunak Chakraborty is not blocked because they do not use their accounts to vote for themselves or to vandalise, I would invite you to read the User accounts policy if that needs clarification. Furthermore, this comment where you are trying to mislead about your global lock on the WMF is again proof that you are not being straight with us. Lastly, actions speak more than words and while you say that you are trying to help your actions show us otherwise. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 09:20, 4 May 2020 (UTC)


 * What can I know? my conduct is bad for you?and Shaunak Chakraborty Wikipedia was like thiswiki --  Sourav  Talk... 10:08, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * If you have evidence of a breach of the User accounts policy or other abuse, please tell us. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  10:10, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Shaunak Chakraborty No account was abused and I didn't either.That's what I mean. told me not to do that for the second time and I did not do that -- Sourav  Talk... 10:15, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I did not cast my vote myself. These two user IPs do not match mine I want to say as an example If you are applying for a right, can you be the person if a user from your country votes for you? -- Sourav  Talk... 10:32, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Bonnedav rollback request
Hello,

I wish to request the rollback right on meta so that I may better assist in combating spam and vandalism to keep meta a clean place for the miraheze community to come together. I understand that is right is only for meta and does not affect any other wikis. I agree to only rollback edits that clearly violate policy and leave anything else up to the admins, bureaucrats, and stewards.

Thank you for considering.

 * I do not see much anti-vandalism work on meta. How can you demonstrate previous counter vandalism experience? ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  06:44, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't have a lot of experience but I have read the policies and hope to learn and gain more experience. However I did assist in reverting an attack on nonciclopedia.org where a user was adding a political message to the top of every page. Thank you. Bonnedav (talk) 17:34, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
