{unblock | reason=I am not a sock puppet. I was trying to create a wikipedia page for a legitimate, notable actress named Eden Mccoy. She is a two-time Emmy nominee and a legitimate public figure. All of her co-stars on her television show, General Hospital on the ABC Network have wikipedia pages. I don't understand why I was blocked. Thank you. Baggal (talk) 13:41, 13 June 2020 (UTC)}[reply]

Request reason:

At the beginning of 2020, someone who claimed to know how to make Wikipedia pages was helping me to create a page for Eden McCoy, but they were also blocked as a sock puppet and they didn't know why. That's why I tried to do it myself and I was also blocked as a Sockpuppet. I have no other accounts and I've never tried to do anything on Wikipedia other than create a page for Eden McCoy, a legitimate, notable, public figure. There were many legitimate media sources and articles listed in the original Wikipedia page creation attempt. Baggal (talk) 13:48, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Thanks for admitting you have indeed violated WP:MEAT. However, there are no grounds here to consider lifting the block. Yamla (talk) 16:57, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Thank you for your response, but maybe I didn't explain myself properly. I don't know how to use Wikipedia so I asked someone who does to create a page for Eden McCoy. She is a legitimate public figure with many legitimate articles in the media written about her t.v. and movies. She is a two-time Emmy nominated actress on General Hospital (ABC Network) and her co-stars all have wikipedia pages. If it is wrong to ask someone who is good at computers to create a wikipedia page, I did not know that. When the person who made her page was blocked by ad admin on Wikipedia and Eden's page was taken down, the person told me they had no idea why they were blocked and that I should just try and make a page myself. So that is what I did, but my page was taken down as well and I was blocked. I don't know what a sock puppet is or a meat puppet, can someone please explain why I am not allowed to ask someone who is good at technology/computers to create a page, or why I'm not allowed to create a page for a legitimate public figure? Thanks so much. Baggal (talk) 18:53, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Please read WP:MEAT. We have no way of knowing who is sitting at the computer making edits operating any particular account. When two different accounts edit about the exact same topic in the same manner, we must treat them as if they are either operated by the same person or operating with off-wiki coordination(which you admit is the case here). If one account is blocked, and the other continues to operate, we must treat it as block evasion and sockpuppetry(one person using more than one account to violate policy). Are there any topics you want to edit about other than Eden McCoy? I am declining your request. 331dot (talk) 10:06, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
