You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  --Blablubbs (talk) 09:48, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

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:

Several users, including Blablubbs, Mr Reading Turtle and Johannnes89 claims I am Mike Matthews17 and therefore I am blocked on the proper English version on Wikipedia. I am not Mike Matthews17 or even know anyone named that. Isn't it that hard to check the editing habits of both me and Stephen Carlsen64 to distinguish we are different people?

Decline reason:

As I understood, you are a sockpuppet of the globally locked user Spud the Scarecrow. You have to address that issue. Vanjagenije (talk) 22:06, 28 May 2022 (UTC)

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.

So that's how I had trouble logging in with Spud the Scarecrow which you are correct. I have no idea on addressing the issue, so it looks like I am finished editing Wikipedia already. I have now identified the user who has locked me which is Marco Aurelio. If @Iggy the Swan: knows that user, they'd ask why the globally locked user Spud the Scarecrow (me) was locked in the 1st place. Spud the Wikipedian (talk) 11:01, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

[1] and you don't evade global locks either if you claim Spud the Scarecrow is your original account and Johannnes89 thought you were linked to "Mike Matthews17". To be honest, I don't think, by looking at the contributions, the same person is operating Spud and Mike Matthews17 but Johannnes89 seems to take that into their own mind you are. But I agree that you're finished on Wikipedia per WP:SOCK. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 18:57, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
