Request reason:

I am not a sock puppet, and I do not know the user whom I am accused of being a sock puppet of. KnowledgeFighter (talk) 04:55, 29 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I don't understand how I'm supposed to prove a negative. KnowledgeFighter (talk) 29 April 2020 (UTC)

Decline reason:

As noted, this is a checkuser block, meaning there is technical evidence to support the block. You need to do more than just say "I'm not a sockpuppet", as every sockpuppeteer denies doing so. You need to provide a plausible reason as to why the technical evidence would suggest that you are a sock if you aren't. 331dot (talk) 00:29, 30 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I don't know how else to put this. I did not begin to use this to IP address or this internet provider until last week, to my knowledge I have never used this internet provider before or this IP address before. Again, I don't know how to prove a negative. But if 331dot wants a plausible reason, it's this - I did not have access to this IP address. I don't know what the previous user did with it, but if you say they were a sock-puppeteer, than they probably were. I don't know how else I'm meant to prove this.

Special:Diff/934718645 & Special:Diff/953555967 are too similar to not be you, plus German composers aren't on everyone's top edit list. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 05:25, 5 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

User:DeltaQuad User talk:DeltaQuad so my crime is being a fan of a certain composer and making edits broadly similar to another editor? Go figure. How am I meant to prove a negative? KnowledgeFighter (talk) 23:13, 5 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Your not supposed to prove anything, and there is no crime - you were simply blocked. If anything, you explain the evidence so it's below the beyond a reasonable doubt line, though I say, that will be hard too given the evidence. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 00:41, 6 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
Okay, there's another user on this site who has similar interests and made a similar edit to me. Given the sheer number of both anonymous and account-holding users on this platform, and the literately thousands of edits made per day, I don't think it's entirely inconceivable that within the span of some four months two similar edits by two unrelated user might be made. Is that really so hard to believe? KnowledgeFighter (talk) 00:46, 6 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
