Unblock request
Willbb234 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I recently made a nasty comment and I would like to apologise for said comment and for the distress it caused. I would also like to apologise to those that had to read the comment. I promise that this won't happen again. In my nearly five years of editing this is what I believe to be the first personal attack I have made, and so it is certainly not like me to make such a comment, and I will learn and change from this experience and block. Regards, Willbb234 18:21, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
Decline reason:
This appeal falls well short of convincing me that you understand how serious your comment was: sexual harassment which you characterized as "just a joke" ([1]) and then repeated the comment as you invited a reviewing administrator to "stop taking stuff so literally" ([2]). I'm going to post some external resources below about the harms of passing off sexual harassment as "just a joke", which I suggest you read and deeply reflect on before you consider another unblock appeal. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:08, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Do you understand that when all we have is text on a screen, we have little option but to take you literally? The other point I would ask you to be aware of is that Wikipedia is a global community and what you might find humorous won't necessarily be found so by others- and that not everyone wants to read such comments. This is a public space, not a bar. 331dot (talk) 18:28, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
As I mentioned, here are some resources on online harassment which you may be interested in reviewing.
- The Inclusion Solution, "Unpacking the Conversations that Matter: “It’s just a joke! Why are you so upset?”"
- Inside Higher Ed, "The Just Joking Defense"
- Medium, "Don’t Take It So Seriously, It’s Just A Joke — Or Is It?"
- The Conversation, "‘It’s just a joke’: the subtle effects of offensive language"
- The Guardian, "Can't you take a joke, love? Why the 'banter' isn't funny any more"
- risk(within)reason, "“It was just a joke!” How bullies blame their victims"
And here are some lesson guides which, despite being designed to introduce these concepts to children, you may nonetheless find informative:
- Childnet, "Just a joke?"
- MediaSmarts.ca, "Just a joke? Helping youth respond to casual prejudice"
