Request reason:

Hi there, I am not sure what happened? What are these other accounts for? I only edit from Constantprogress and respect Wikipedia guidelines. I would appreciate to understand what this sock puppet is about? Thanks for the help! Constantprogress ( talk) 20:26, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Decline reason:

So you say you have no idea what those other accounts that happen to be technically indistinguishable from this one and share your interests are for? Sorry, I don't believe that. Huon ( talk) 20:33, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Request reason:

There a lots of people in this building, some of which no doubt share interests, but that shouldn’t affect my ability to contribute to Wikipedia. How can we resolve this? Constantprogress ( talk) 20:44, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Decline reason:

No, that's not what the technical evidence shows. Yamla ( talk) 21:10, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Request reason:

Would you please show me this evidence so I can understand what you're saying? I have explained the situation. I'm very upset because I have invested a lot of time into contributing to Wikipedia and have always ensured that my contributions are accurate and cited correctly. What is the appeal procedure for this? Constantprogress ( talk) 21:25, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Request reason:

Thanks for showing me this page. I don't really understand it? Are you suggesting I made Constantprogress1,2,3 etc? I just have this one account. I've done many edits in good faith on Wikipedia these past couple of years. I have not done anything that would violate Wikipedia's rules to my knowledge, although I can make grammatical mistakes! Apologies in advance! I feel this a mistake, and I don't have any intention of doing deceptive edits or practices in general. This is a passion, and I do it because I enjoy contributing to pages that I feel need updating or changing, or even improving. I even made a page a few months back I'm proud of, and there was nothing on the web for it. What do I do now to appeal? Constantprogress ( talk) 23:35, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Decline reason:

I'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you at this time as this is a sockpuppetry and/or checkuser block. Check users have access to technical and personally identifying information they may not disclose openly on Wikipedia. Please read and heed the relevant sections of the WP:GAB. If this is not your original account, you will need to appeal at your original account. -- Deep fried okra 22:57, 30 September 2019 (UTC) reply

Let's take The Cybersmile Foundation as an example. This year, until you were blocked, the article was edited, in order of first edit, by:
  • You
  • Rowd, an experienced editor who fixed a link issue, something they do on many pages
  • IPs in the 90.254.x.x range which now happen to also be blocked. CheckUsers generally will not confirm that a specific account and an IP address are linked, but in this case it seems a safe assumption that this IP range is associated with all those accounts listed in the sockpuppet investigation.
  • Some bots that performed automated tasks
  • An IP in the 90.240.x.x range which happens to be blocked by the same CheckUser as you and the above IP, at about the same time. See above.
  • LauraL2019 ( talk · contribs)
  • Appleby342 ( talk · contribs) aka Simon Appleby who apparently personally took this photo
  • Gilo1969, another experienced editor fixing a minor technical issue
  • Stalinsunnykvj and Narky Blert, another two experienced editors fixing links
  • Gretafinke98 ( talk · contribs)
So every single new editor coming to the page this year before your block, everybody doing more than trivial maintenance, happens to be technically connected to you. Yes, it might be a coincidence that someone in your building might share your interests. But that everybody sharing your interests happens to be in that same building? That's not a coincidence.
