Blocked as a sockpuppet[edit]

This account has been blocked indefinitely as a suspected sock puppet of NewsEditor1959 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · logs · block log · arb · rfc · lta · SPI · cuwiki) that was created to violate Wikipedia policy. Note that using multiple accounts is allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that all edits made while evading a block or ban may be reverted or deleted. If this is a sock puppet account, and your original account is blocked, please also note that banned or blocked users are not allowed to edit Wikipedia; and all edits made under this account may be reverted. If this account is not a sock puppet, and you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Your reason here The reason for this block is quite simply untrue. I am a completely separate person from NewsEditor1959. I would also add that the recent edits I have made have only been made in relation to unsourced statements, or statements which do not reflect the original source material provided. I therefore believe this block is wholly unreasonable and ask for it to be reversed.

Decline reason:

The actual claim is that you are what we call a meatpuppet; working with someone or otherwise coordinating your edits with another user off wiki. As stated in that policy, we must treat users making the exact same edits as if they are the same person whether they actually are or not. If you are not a sock or meat puppet, you will need to explain why we might think that you are if you aren't. I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 13:25, 27 July 2020 (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.

I do not understand why it is my job to explain the logic behind your suspicions? The evidence you have supplied to corroborate your accusations against me is entirely circumstantial, and does not constitute proof of anything. Furthermore, as I have already explained, the edits I have made are based on unsourced or ill-sourced statements. If someone else has also spotted the same flaws, it is coincidental and I do not understand why this should reflect negatively on me - or indeed why it is my problem at all. Surely this would indicate that the page itself is flawed. For that reason, I would ask that you reconsider this decision.ARambo8 (talk) 11:44, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
