Not all of the unblock requests are showing on the table, and those that are are sometimes out of date. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:14, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Deepfriedokra: I've been checking the list and it seems to be happening again. The newest updates displayed are five days old. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:17, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deepfriedokra, I made a posting at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical). Hopefully somebody will be able to figure it out. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 15:24, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello friends. Since User:Enterprisey/unblock-review.js is unmaintained and has accumulated some bugs over the years, I have forked it and fixed several bugs. Feel free to try it out. Although be sure to disable the old script to avoid the two scripts fighting with each other. User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/UnblockReview.js. Enjoy. –Novem Linguae (talk) 10:53, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This makes me really happy. Thanks, Novem Linguae! --Yamla (talk) 11:00, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I took the liberty of porting over the documentation to User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/UnblockReview. I hope that's ok. --Yamla (talk) 11:05, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Works for me! –Novem Linguae (talk) 11:30, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am wondering if things are getting to the point where we should put in the block notices themselves to not use an AI to write your request. I see at least one- often more than one- every day. It certainly wouldn't stop all of them but maybe it would cut it down a little. 331dot (talk) 13:10, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think the block notices are busy enough already, but maybe a note in WP:GAB would help. What about a template for a default decline for LLM-assisted block appeals? Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 15:55, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a bad idea. Should we have an AI write it? :) 331dot (talk) 16:11, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've seriously thought about responding to LLM requests with an LLM blurb of my own, but mostly I avoid using them at all. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 16:55, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A template sounds good to me. There's already AI-related guidance at GAB. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 16:14, 2 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, MehranHashemi (talk) 13:37, 24 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your account is less than an hour old, and has no blocks. If you're meaning to appeal a block of another account, first of all please familiarize yourself with the policy on the use of multiple accounts, then please read the guide to appealing blocks for instructions. This is not the correct page. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 13:41, 24 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
