Blocked as a sockpuppet

edit
 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Worldwar1989 per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Worldwar1989. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:28, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Hello, My account has been accused as a sock puppet, and a sock puppet of another account. Could you please remove this? I am not a sock, nor am I a sock of another blocked account. If you look at my editing history, I’ve done nothing wrong; I don’t abuse, misuse, or do damage to or disrupt anything. My actions have been very ethical. I've accurately pointed out hoaxes, provided substantial evidence, and have them successfully removed. My contributions to Wikipedia have been productive and fruitful; I’m very proud of them, and I hope to continue this. My guess is that I've probably was in the vicinity of an IP address, which was why I was accused and blocked. That is not substantial grounds for being a sock, especially one of another account that I don’t even know about, like the one I'm accused being a sock of. I hope can be reversed, please.

Decline reason:

I appreciate your polite and civil tone, but a) saying you're not a sock does very little to dispel suspicion that you are, b) the Checkuser pretty much confirms that you are a sock (and all I can say is that there's more to it than you think) and c) talking about your editing career as if you've been editing for years when you only started this account four days ago is also a little strange. — Daniel Case (talk) 06:53, 25 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hey @Daniel Case, Thank you for responding to me.

(1) “The Check-user pretty much confirms that you are a sock” That does not mean it’s correct. The point of me appealing is to challenge this block and prove my innocence.

(2) “saying you're not a sock does very little to dispel suspicion that you are.” I agree. Solely by itself, that’s not enough. So that’s why I had to say that I never misuse or abuse anything at all, and that my contributions and efforts have actually been productive. I also pointed out the important possibility that there could be an issue with IP. I’m still adamant that I’m not a sock. If there is reasonable doubt that I am not a sock, please do not block or punish me.

(2) “Talking about your editing career as if you've been editing for years when you only started this account four days ago is also a little strange.”

A) I suppose the “I’m very proud” part could be subjectively interpreted as how you interpreted it, so I just removed that.

B) I’m not talking about my editing career as if I’ve been editing for years at all, and that was never my intent to begin with. My intent was: because this is an appeal, I wanted to point out that I don’t abuse anything, and that so far, my efforts, research and writing have been productive, not detrimental, and I hope I could continue to contribute; that is all, and that was the point. Please do not misunderstand.


Thank you for taking the time to review this, Daniel.
