Sockpuppet investigation

edit

  You are suspected of sock puppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mikethewhistle-original. Thank you. KyleJoantalk 17:18, 12 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Re:Email

Please read Wikipedia:Guide to appealing blocks. You can add {{unblock | reason=your reason here ~~~~}} to your talk page, replacing "your reason here" with why you should be unblocked. Your other option is Wikipedia:Unblock Ticket Request System. Sro23 (talk) 20:21, 12 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

I am not a sickpuppet

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:

I am not that other user and request you do whatever checks to verify that. In your checking you will be able to verify that I have not edited under any other account than this one. The user that reported me has a history of attacking other users that is covered at here. Their sole accusation about me is that I asked a question related to a change they made to a page that apparently this other user had been on. I have not edited that page, and my question was in the teahouse to gain understanding. That overlap tool thing shows that I and the other user have only been on two of the same pages. One being the teahouse and the other DB Cooper (which I made changes having just watched a special about the guy on NatGeo.) The question I asked was never raised by the other user so it's simply me and another user having an interest in the same article.

One would think that if we were the same user there would be greater ovelap between us. As to overlap with KyleJoan who accused me, the only overlap we have is on a rfc for an article that has become highly contentious. This has caused KyleJoan to file multiple admin reports about other users including this one dismissed as "bad-faith, retaliatory SPI" shown here whcih is what this one is too.

I look forward to your assistance. Thank you. SailedtheSeas (talk) 20:33, 12 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

Procedural decline only. This unblock request has been open for more than two weeks but has not proven sufficient for any reviewing administrator to take action. You are welcome to request a new block review if you substantially reword your request. To be unblocked, you must convince the reviewing administrator(s) that

  • the block is not necessary to prevent damage or disruption to Wikipedia, or
  • the block is no longer necessary because you
    1. understand what you have been blocked for,
    2. will not continue to cause damage or disruption, and
    3. will make useful contributions instead.

Please read the guide to appealing blocks for more information. signed, Rosguill talk 23:47, 15 January 2021 (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.

Addtl - The sole piece of evidence KJ stated is that another user and myself had an interest in ONE page. If I were this other user, would there not have been greater overlap? SRO23 you say there is like writing style, can you please give me an example? The so called wikistalking is compromised of one talk page and a question about another page with no interaction on said page or talk page. If I were wikistalking, would there not been more overlap?

Writing style examples: "Addtl" instead of "Additional" ([1] [2]), "#" instead of "Number" (Special:Diff/946597333, [3]), "KJ" instead of "KyleJoan" ([4] [5]), lowercase "i" instead of uppercase (inconsistently) ([6] [7]), and overall inconsistent grammar and punctuation, and same sort of rambling-style of writing. There's also the teahouse discussions as explained on the SPI. Regardless of whether the SPI was retaliatory, it was not baseless. The fact that this new user, created two days after the last socks were blocked, out of nowhere starts following KyleJoan around, opposing their RFCs and filing a SPI on them, is just too much for it to be a coincidence. Overlap in articles is not the only evidence that can be taken into account when determining sockpuppetry. I'm not opposed CU being run either, though "innocence" checks are usually rejected, and all Mikethewhistle-original socks appear to be stale (there might still be data on them stored somewhere, I'm not sure how it works).
