Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

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 why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.

Request reason:

Hi Doug, I'm not sure why I was blocked. I am completely unaware of who Chanakaya volume 2 is, I am not a sockpuppet, and I have not been acting abusively. I engaged in absolutely no vandalism or faulty edits, and always added citations to my edits without adding my own point of my view. If you check back on all of my edits I am sure you'll see this. I understand you're just doing your job, but I'd really like my account back as I don't believe I broke any rules-- unless there's something else I did aside from the accusations of acting abusively/being a sockpuppet. Thanks.

Decline reason:

Confirmed by CheckUser at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Chanakya Volume 2. If you are not the same user, please make a new request that explains how there could be a close technical match with another account. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 13:27, 24 November 2017 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

That's why a checkuser confirmed that you're a sock[1]? Boomer VialHolla! We gonna ball! 03:32, 17 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
