Reblocked

Well, that's unfortunate. When I unblocked you ([1]), I made very clear that a condition of your unblock was that you may not revert any edit more than once, and also that Please note that this is a final chance, and that any violation of these conditions or other disruption is likely to lead to the indefinite block being reinstated without further warning, and you stated your agreement to these conditions. At Sakhalin, you made three edits which at least partially removed the same disputed material each time from the lead section ([2], [3], [4]), so I'm afraid you blew that final chance, and I am reinstating the indefinite block. I believe by now you are familiar with the process for appealing a block, but if you need to refresh your memory, that's at the guide to appealing blocks.

@Seraphimblade: Thanks for working with me. I am willing to self-revert any of my edits if they violate my unblock conditions. My interaction with the editor led to a situation where the editor said "the last edit seems benign, even preferred". The earliest edit was part of a removal of several similar additions of Chinese characters to the lead sections of Russian articles a while back- I link to another article where I make a similar edit. The more recent edit concerning simplified/traditional was about a specific argument related to what should be displayed in the lead section as historically connected to the subject matter for the article. The third edit is described by the other editor in this way: "the last edit seems benign, even preferred", and the content is still up and not removed, but moved to a more appropriate location. Can you see how I might think this is acceptable behavior within the scope of the unblock conditions? Geographyinitiative (talk) 22:57, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

From that, I can see what you were thinking, but it still wasn't within it. You still removed the same material from the lead three times, and you still agreed you weren't going to do that any more. The agreement was not "I won't revert more than once unless I'm really convinced I'm right", nor even "I won't revert more than once unless it convinces someone else I'm right". You agreed not to do that any more, and you did. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 23:06, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

@Seraphimblade: Thanks for your help man. I understand what you're saying, and I apologize if I abused your trust in me. I guess they really are reverts, so I didn't fulfil your conditions. I want to try to unblock again, so I will make my request here. Thanks for your efforts working with me.

Request reason:

I am once again asking for your unblock.

After several years, I got unblocked from Wikipedia. It was awesome, and I was making great strides in my area of expertise. But unfortunately, I accidentally violated a condition for my unblock: I had a 1RR limit and did two reverts- one partial, and one that moved the content to another part of the article- that I thought were good faith work on the page. The other editor involved said "the last edit seems benign, even preferred". I think my recent edits both on Wikipedia and my longer history on Wiktionary show you that I'm a good editor with a lot to contribute, and hence I would like to request unblock again (oops!). I apologize for breaking the conditions of my unblock by doing those reverts. I can agree to do the same conditions again or similar (with the now clearer understanding that this kind of behavior I did is a revert too), or whatever you think is best. I'm sorry. Thanks for any consideration.
