Request reason:

As a wikipedia user, I have 2 logins for 2 devices , mobile and desktop. There has been no intention for masked editing using multiple accounts. I understand the Sockpuppetry offence very well, however in my case there was no malpractice intent around editing being anonymously hiding. Please help in unblocking the same

Accept reason:

Based on the explanation given here, I'm going to unblock Musicfaneditor. From here on, please just stick to a single account. -- RoySmith (talk) 19:59, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

• @Jpgordon: I see you suggested a SPI case merge to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ImSonyR9 but it doesn't look like that ever happened. Perhaps you could provide some insight here? -- RoySmith (talk) 16:45, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

  @RoySmith: Wow, I'm now looking at my CU log, for the day I made that note, and though I see myself CUing both ImSonyR9 and Proudly Indian09, and associated IPs, I can't find the result that brought me to this conclusion. So I guess "never mind for now." --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 17:14, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

  OK, thanks. But @Musicfaneditor we're still left with trying to understand why you say you've got two accounts but I found four in the SPI investigation. And why you need two accounts at all; you can use the same account on two different devices. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:31, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

Roy, Agreed. I can use the same account from both devices and just to confirm there are only 2 accounts associated as far as i know. Let me know if you wish to remove my 2nd account or disable at the account level and not at the IP level as I wish to continue contributing towards the Wiki community. As i mentioned in my appeal, the offence is fully understandable and there was no intention of malpractice here. Musicfaneditor (talk) 08:23, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

  @Ponyo It's on my watchlist, but I must have missed that last edit; thank you for the ping. -- RoySmith (talk) 19:50, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
