I am back to open a case, actually to add a new accountname to a past case, i.e. to make a case extension i guess. This page includes statement "The section below "To open a case" explains how to create or open a case". However there is no section "To open a case". Should the statement link to somewhere else? I am just trying to figure out how to proceed. --[[User:doncram|<font color="maroon">do</font>]][[User talk:Doncram|<font color="green">ncr</font>]][[Special:Contributions/doncram|<font color="maroon">am</font>]] 15:23, 31 July 2015 (UTC) |

Question
I am back to open a case, actually to add a new accountname to a past case, i.e. to make a case extension i guess. This page includes statement "The section below "To open a case" explains how to create or open a case". However there is no section "To open a case". Should the statement link to somewhere else? I am just trying to figure out how to proceed. --doncram 15:23, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
- Same situation a year later. I think I've found the answer so I've corrected the text to point to the right place.--Wikimedes (talk) 03:28, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

- It was in fact in the initial edit of this Guide to filing cases that the promise of "a section below" was offered, but the promise was never fulfilled.
- Happily User:Wikimedes just found out how to open one (follow instructions in the collapsed section, "How to open an investigation", on Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations, which leads you to fill out a form), and revised this page.
- Another approach is: Follow instructions in documentation at Template:SPI report, about "subst"ing the {{SPI report}}. However in my one experience trying this, starting by this initial edit, I couldn't get it to work, perhaps due to some formatting error in my submission. I kept trying in 4 following edits, but the case filing didn't happen until another editor kindly fixed it, somehow.
- So, thanks, Wikimedes! (and thanks AGK for developing this guide in the first place). --doncram 03:58, 17 September 2016 (UTC)

Appeals process
Per the edit summary's linked-to feedback from a Clerk, I did this edit, but it was reverted as 'no consensus'. What is the appeals process, if not this? --Elvey(t•c) 06:22, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
