Request reason:

Your reason here Hi, I have been blocked as a "sock-puppet" of someone else, but I am not one. If you the check the sock-puppet case page [1] there appears to be only one comment "This was an obvious sock, but I initially struggled to identify the master". No evidence has been presented that I am an "obvious" sock and no technical evidence.

I worked in the past for Hope Not Hate in the UK and now I am active monitoring the far-right for several online watchdog websites, happy to email if need be. I joined Wikipedia to warn editors about a far-right individual Emil Kirkegaard who has been editing an article on a controversial racist eugenics conference that he attended.

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center "Emil Kirkegaard, who edits frequently under the username Deleet, is a research fellow at Richard Lynn’s Ulster Institute for Social research and the co-founder of the online pseudojournal OpenPsych." [2]

The sock-puppet investigation was filed by [3] a user called Godotskimp, an obvious sock of Emil Kirkegaard who virtually has no other edits apart from on intelligence which matches Kirkegaard's editing history[4] - [5]. Can an admin please sort this out? Please remove my account as a "sock-puppet".

Decline reason:

I'm going to decline this. Even if you were not a sockpuppet, your sole purpose here clearly is to harass another editor, which is not acceptable. Huon (talk) 09:05, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
