Thank you sir! I truly appreciate the welcome. I'm glad that there are people that try to help new editors with their learning curve. I must say, you are a rare breed: every article I've written has faced heavy opposition so far. You are the first person kind enough to offer me a helping hand instead of deleting my articles. As for any help, I think I've got everything under control. I'm a fast learner and an experienced writer and I beleive I understand everything. I will seek your guidence if I need help though. Once again, thank you--Johncoracing48 (talk) 22:22, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
- You can add me to the list of people that you can contact. I'm an experienced contributor with various racing topics with several Good Articles on racing topics (Mario, AK, the Eagle, Richmond, + 1 being developed offline) to my credit. Let me know if you need any help with writing or if problems come up. That next speedy deletion nomination shouldn't be happening. Be especially careful to not upload images except if you took them yourself. Images are very tricky and I'm an admin on Wikipedia's sister images site. Please ask before you try anything - everyone gets images wrong at first. If your an experienced writer - I know some articles that would benefit from a review...

Images/thoughts on articles priority
My philosophy with images is to only take duplicate improvement pictures when you can significantly improve on what exists. People get upset when they come back to find their image missing if it isn't way better. Anything with no picture is always a good idea, even if the result is poor.
The article that would benefit the most from a picky review is the
- Wow, how interesting! I'm obviously a fan of Kulwicki's or else I wouldn't have worked on the article. I have the Wisconsin connection with him. I even drove a fair distance to Milwaukee to photograph his gravestone & his park. I lucked out an was able to photograph his Winston Cup trophy at the park.
- It's very helpful to get strong fan's opinion and take on the facts. Who knows more about the person than a fan? The fan would able to be the most critical about how the facts are presented and portrayed. The real problem arises when the fan writes the facts using "peacock"terms. I've had enough people review it to weed the bad words out, but there were very few because I avoid / look for them. I've done this long enough that it's not a problem. I look forward to your in-depth review (as time permits). Thank you!
- I used to pit for a team that topped out with an intermediate class at the local track (street stock). Now I track chase within Wisconsin, hitting the major tracks in the eastern side. My interests are diverse, including stockcar, off-road, ice racing, and even some karting & motocross. I've even watched bicycle, snowmobile oval, snocross and powerboat racing.

Gunselman
Six races, none of which were completed, doesn't really stand strongly enough. The article about Gunselman himself is fine, but his team doesn't really deserve an article yet. Plus, articles about smaller/newer teams have a tendency to attract spam. --D-Day (talk) 19:23, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Request reason:
I did not abuse anything! I have spent all my time on Wikipedia constructing articles for the improvement of this sight. I can't believe that I have been blocked for two weeks without even being asked for an explanation of what is happening. I demand that this block be lifted for I have done nothing wrong! The editor that I have been accused of sockpuppeting is a friend of mine but he is not me. I deny that I have ever sockpuppeted and I believe that this system which has ensnared me is flawed. It appears as if my fellow Wikipedians have been judge, jury, and prosecutor! This is entirely unfair and my explanations have been completely unheeded. This total lack of fair trial reminds my of the Nazi regime which has haunted our past. I call for change in this system and, more importantly, the repeal of my banishment. This banishment is keeping me from a number of the articles that I have created and will put well behind in updates when my sentence has concluded. If this banashment stands, I hereby refuse to contribute to Wikipedia again.--Johncoracing48

Request reason:
I apologize for my earlier outburst. I was simply appalled because I was suddenly blocked without warning. I sincerely apologize to all who I have insulted. It was not my intention to compare anyone to genocidal maniacs. I was just trying to find a comparision to being judged, condemned, and prosecuted withoiut having the chance to defend myself. I am here to state now that I have never done anything on Wikipedia that can be truthfully defined as illegal by Wikipedia's rules. I am not guilty for sockpuppetry and I resent the fact that I was not given the chance to clear my name before my banishment was exacted. I ask now that my ban be lifted so that I can continue my work which mainly is upkeeping NASCAR articles. I ask, once again, for the forgiveness of those I have insulted.

Request reason:
Regardless of the time period or my legal language, it is still not acceptable for me to be banned for two weeks. I am the sole editor on a number of articles that could have significant changes every day. I already have a list of updates I have to do in the day that I've been suspended. Once again, I swear that I did not and have never done sockpuppetry or any other thing considered illegal on Wikipedia. The fact that it is only a two week suspension is irrelevent since I am being unjustly prosecuted. I ask that my suspension be repealed immedeatly. Thank you.--Johncoracing48 (talk) 19:05, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Firstly, this doesn't address the reason why you were blocked, so can be declined solely for that reason. There is no deadline for our articles, and I'm sure that other editors can easily step in to make what changes are necessary to the articles you work on - in the event none do, their remaining untouched for two weeks won't be the end of the world.
Secondly, and probably more importantly, I just had a look at the technical data myself. From what I can see,

Request reason:
First of all, I'm not stupid enough to write from two different usernames within three minutes of each other on the same computer. I wrote this article from my school and we share the same server for all our computers. That's why you think we had the same computer. Secondly, if I choose to stretch the imagination, I do know Kingtut personally! I have already established that. Like I said before, it was at school and he is a classmate of mine. We were sitting in the same room and discussing the situation and we both checked Wikipedia at the same time. As I have said before, I am not Kingtut nor am I anyone else other than Johncoracing48. I do not believe that I am meatpuppeting (and if I have, I assure you that it was inadvertant) simply because we write on the same articles. As I have said before, the fact that we write on the same articles does not make us meatpuppeters. We have watched all articles listed that you have used as evidence against us. As you know, we are alerted whenever those articles are updated. We never stategized about what we were going to edit. For example, when I saw that Kingtut's update that Miranda Uhl went to Siant Francis Catholic High School (the school we both attend) had been deleted, I undid the deletion and helped find the prper documents that prooved the statment. Both mine and Kingtut's updates have been nothing but constructive and I feel that it is wrong for us to be condemned for working on the same articles.--Johncoracing48 (talk) 21:17, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Per Hersfold; checkusers have access to technical data beyond a simple IP address, and if he says you are editing from the same computer then that's it. !voting on the same AfD, whether using sockpuppets or meatpuppets, is unacceptable. You've had enough tries here; talk page access disabled.

- Without commenting on the case itself, you will probably want to respond to the accusations/evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Johncoracing48 (specifically, the case archive). Such a response could be posted here. Also I've consolidated your pair of open unblock requests into one, since they seemed to have duplicate text; seems like simple housekeeping, so hopefully this isn't a big deal either way. – Luna Santin (talk) 00:22, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – Alan Kulwicki, selected as a good article
Alan Dennis Kulwicki (December 14, 1954 – April 1, 1993), nicknamed "Special K" and the "Polish Prince", was an Sprint Cup Series) racecar driver. He started racing at local short tracks in Wisconsin before moving up to regional stock car touring series. Kulwicki arrived at NASCAR, the highest and most expensive level of stock car racing in the United States, with no sponsor, a limited budget, and only a racecar and a borrowed pickup truck. Despite starting with meager equipment and finances, he earned the 1986 NASCAR Rookie of the Year award over drivers racing for well-funded teams.
After Kulwicki won his first race at Polish Victory Lap ". Kulwicki won the 1992 Winston Cup championship by what was then the closest margin in NASCAR history. He died early in 1993 in a light aircraft accident, and was unable to defend his championship. He has been inducted into numerous racing halls of fame and was named one of NASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers.
Kulwicki was known for being a perfectionist and doing things his own way. An engineer by trade, his scientific approach to NASCAR racing inspires the way teams are now run. Despite lucrative offers from top car owners, he insisted on driving for his own race team, AK Racing, during most of his NASCAR career. Described by his publicist as "a real hard type of person to get to know", he remained a bachelor throughout his life.
