Redirects?

I just wanted to clarify something quickly with you. Why exactly have you made two profiles recursively redirect? Something about this feels funny to me, so I'd just like an explanation of what exactly it is you're trying to do with this. Representative Slip Represent Yourself 22:44 18 January, 2020 (UTC)

Un-block request

@GrammarCommie @GrammarCommie Hello, You have just banned me for welcoming spambots. I have had NO IDEA that those accounts were SPAMBOTS! They haven't made any edits they it looks like. I am new. I don't know how to identify bad users. How do you? Thanks, Dino ((contribs)) 23:55, 19 January 2020 (UTC)

I didn't ban you. I blocked you for an hour. As for how to spot procedurally generated Bot accounts... Just go through the block log and look at the accounts blocked by User:Edit filter and compare how the names are structured. ☭Comrade GC☭^{Ministry of Praise} 00:04, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

@GrammarCommie Sorry, I will NO LONGER welcome users unless they show at least 1 good contribution. I can remain blocked, its fine because it's only for an hour. Dino ((contribs)) 00:09, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
