Blocked as a sockpuppet edit

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Py16 per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Py16.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Callanecc (talkcontribslogs) 09:24, 14 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Hello, definitely not Py16 and I'm not sure how to appeal against this. :I've nothing to do with: :- abusing multiple accounts, :- Py16, or :- Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Py16. :You're correct in SUSPECTING something but your suspicion is INCORRECT. :I've been logging in every other day or every couple of days to contribute to articles about my favourite and mostly followed Australian footballers from the 1987 to 1991 generation, I'd love to get back to editing those articles soon. I MAY infact have an addictive obsession with my favourite Greek-Australian footballers like Govas, Bouzanis, Giannou, Stambolziev, but not really sure how that makes me another user or an abuser of multiple accounts. :Since I'd already created my own User Page which indicated I'm Melbourne-born to Greek folks, a Pana fan and follow Aussies Abroad, Oz Football and predominantly edited Greek-Australian footballers abroad, this should ethically and not suspiciously be interpreted for my editing to Melbourne Victory and the club's latest Paraguayan signing, regardless of if my edits may or may not be linked through secondary or tertiary hyperlinks to a page or pages that Py16 created or edited and that shouldn't be interpreted from a stance that I'm using another account or an abuser of multiple accounts. :Thanks :) Ze-wee-mon (talk) 18:18, 14 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

"You're correct in SUSPECTING something but your suspicion is INCORRECT", you say. Well, that's a strange way to say it. If we are right in suspecting something, but it's not you, then maybe you can help us with what we do suspect? You would seem to know more than we do.

And apart from that, what you have admitted to isn't exactly a broadly shared interest. So, when several different accounts make very similar edits in this particularly narrow area, pray tell, what are we supposed to think? — Daniel Case (talk) 07:41, 15 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Hello again Daniel Case (talk). Look, I truly acknowledge if you're experienced, and I don't doubt that you would be, in the area of identifying and blocking editors who vandalize or use multiple accounts, I really do understand this, but I can sincerely and only say once more that I've nothing to do with the suspicions you claim. Any other person who doesn't take editing seriously would've said all of the names under the sun to you and thrown a tantrum, I on the other hand know that it MAY in fact just be margin of error, cause margin of error does happen and it's no big deal. Go ahead please and check my IP address and also check the IP address of the other accounts if it causes assurance. I've already prepared other info to be edited into the pages of Greek-Australian footballers and I was looking forward to expanding Dimitri Hatzimouratis, a draft I created, but it was unfortunately removed. Hope you can lift the blockage. Thanks :) Ze-wee-mon (talk) 23:53, 15 February 2023

Decline reason:

This boils down to "I'm not a sock", which is insufficient to remove a block for socking, as every sock claims to not be one. Not throwing a tantrum is a point in your favor I guess, but not a reason to remove the block. This could be meat puppetry, which is treated the same. It could help if you agreed to abandon editing about footballers for the time being and tell us what you will edit about instead. 331dot (talk) 12:11, 7 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
