Request reason:

I'm just a first time user as an editor.Came in with a verified email.Wrote/edited my first article out of experience and interest in the multiple topics in the article,eg different art practices involved in the theme of the article,the interesting work by a notable artist in the article and so on.I thought I could look forward to the editing experience with some other articles as well,probably on similar themes that are of interest and relate to my experience on such subject matters.Am appalled to find a sequence of assumptions that link me with other editors of the article as a "Sockpuppet"!.I am not currently technically equipped to crawl around all the technical modalities involved in the editing process here as other experienced,distinguished editor/admin colleagues on Wikipedia but have a desire to learn more gradually!Also,taking into account my own time constraints. Till then,I must admit,that the first response that I have got here itself was a bit of a dampener. Requesting unblocking.Lisa

Accept reason:

I have looked at the behavioural evidence, which seems to me very inconclusive. I have also consulted the checkuser who provided the technical evidence, and he has decided that the evidence is not as certain as he thought originally. I have therefore unblocked you. I am sorry that you have had such a negative introduction to editing Wikipedia, and I do hope you can now get on with contributing to the encyclopaedia without any such problems. Please feel welcome to ask on my talk page if you need any advice on how Wikipedia works. JamesBWatson (talk) 20:07, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
