Ascilto (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
As sv:Användare:Ascilto at the Swedish Wikipedia I write mostly about theatre and dog related subjects. I am well established at svwp since 2008 and have never edited under any sockpuppets. See my Swedish user page for further information. The account under which i write this request is normally abandoned.
Accept reason:
With full respect to Avraham, there's no sockpuppetry here. Editing using multiple accounts is allowed on the English Wikipedia so long as the editor is careful not to violate any of the illegitimate uses listed at WP:ILLEGIT. With only one of the accounts even having edits on this project, it's not possible that policy was violated (at least with only these accounts). As a CheckUser, I'm just going to go ahead and unblock all accounts. Having said that, I strongly encourage you to pick one account and stick to it on the English Wikipedia. While using multiple accounts is allowed, it is strongly discouraged unless you have very good reason to use one. Violating our policy on sockpuppetry, intentionally or even accidentally, will result in a block. ~ Rob13Talk 05:40, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
- Hmm. Are you sure that none of these usernames sound familiar? Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Ascilto/Archive SQLQuery me! 22:03, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
- So far, I would note that Special:CentralAuth/Aloxinus was active on svwiki as well. SQLQuery me! 22:07, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
- As was Special:CentralAuth/Eqamnis [1]. SQLQuery me! 22:08, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
- As you can ser those accounts also are abandoned. At svwp the rules on multiple accounts are much more liberal, see sv:Wikipedia:Användarkonto under the headline Flera användarkonton. There are several occations when it is allowed, it is only strictly forbidden for circumvention of blockings. /Ascilto — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scorese (talk • contribs) 10:48, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

- Just a note that none of the accounts listed at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ascilto/Archive, apart from User:Ascilto, appears to have been used to edit the English Wikipedia - so I'm not sure how they can be considered en.wiki socks? Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:20, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
- That's a fair point. SQLQuery me! 16:45, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
- @Avraham: Any comment as the blocking checkuser? Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 16:56, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

- Being semi-retired, I gave back the CU bit, so I cannot check the logs, and I don't remember the specific situation from 9 years ago. Sorry. -- Avi (talk) 06:29, 19 July 2018 (UTC)
- This probably needs to go to the CU queue so a CU can remove the checkuserblock tag to enable a normal admin review. Just Chilling (talk) 13:47, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Why does Scorese need this sock account? PhilKnight (talk) 22:35, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
- Per Just Chilling, {{Checkuser needed}}. SQLQuery me! 04:47, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
- Handled above. For full transparency, I did not check this account prior to unblocking. This may be unusual/unconventional when lifting a CU block, but based on the CheckUser log, the notes by the CheckUser who handled this case in the SPI, and everything said here, no evidence has been presented of any illegitimate use of multiple accounts, now or in the past. As such, I wouldn't consider a check to be compliant with the local or global CheckUser policies. (The original checks by Avraham were fully justified, with these accounts being uncovered only during checks on an unrelated sockmaster who very much was violating the policy. I am not at all criticizing the original check.) ~ Rob13Talk 05:45, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for taking care of it. -- Avi (talk) 01:10, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
- This case seems to have been forgotten. The best way to see that I am a serious user is to take a look at my Swedish user page, sv:Användare:Ascilto, and there look up my contribution history. On my Swedish page there is also links to my user pages at Commons and WikiData. /Ascilto (talk) 11:29, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
- You aren't blocked anymore. Bu Rob13 unblocked you a couple weeks ago. SQLQuery me! 15:08, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
- Nice! Thanks a lot! /Ascilto (talk) 17:59, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
