Per comment below. Sorry, I'm clean. — Daniel Case (talk) 06:40, 23 November 2008 (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.

Admins are advised to speak with CU Deskana before considering unblocking. Also, look at the edit history Am6212 (talk · contribs) and the confirmed socks, including this account. لenna vecia 06:00, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This user is conversing with my via e-mail. So far most of his claims of innocence are very transparent. --Deskana (talk) 06:02, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I will summarise my correspondance below.

His e-mail address begins "sdf" and then has a string of numbers following it. His name is apparently "S D". He says he's been using this account for years. The provider of his e-mail account is a popular http-based webmail service where you can register for free. Throwaway e-mail account, most likely.
He says a message popped up that his IP is shared and he should register an account to avoid getting blocked. We tell that to sockpuppeteers now? How kind of us.
He edits from "the university". He says he thinks they use the same internet through the whole campus, since when he uses the wireless all his edits come from the same IP. Checkuser shows that the only edits made from his IP to Wikipedia are related to Syriac issues. He says this is because his university has a large Syriac population. Checkuser also shows that everyone at the university edited from one computer for a while, then they all decided to switch to another one on the same day, and never use the old one again.
Some of his edits are identical to the user that was banned a month ago.

Any administrator who believe this is sufficient evidence to unblock him is welcome to do so, with my blessing. I'd advise them to give me some of what they're smoking, too. --Deskana (talk) 06:33, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Deskana. May I add that I believe that I should not be held accountable for what one user with multiple accounts did a month ago. I said that the edits under the IP were related to those topics because I have been using that IP for the past week or so and they are my edits but I only have this one account that was just created after being informed by wikipedia that the IP is shared and I should create an account to avoid gettign blocked.--Hakkari (talk) 06:41, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think Deskana is saying that someone would have to be on illicit drugs to believe you. I agree.

As do I. Seriously, just how stupid do you think we are? J.delanoy ^gabs _adds 06:45, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I stated the IP was mine. I have been using it and just created an account today.--Hakkari (talk) 06:48, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't explain all the other accounts that have edited Syriac topics? If they were you too, then there's no problem. --Deskana (talk) 06:52, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

But Jenna stated that was a "sockpuppet" so it was probably all one user. And after looking at the history of the articles, they have been inactive.--Hakkari (talk) 07:00, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And I also never attributed the edits to the size of the population here. You made a comment about the population and I just stated that a community does exist here.--Hakkari (talk) 07:07, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hakkari (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Shared IP. The "only" edits Deskana referred too are probably mine since I've just been using the IP w/o an account for the past week or so. But that is not a reason to block this account. I have just been using the IP and discontinued signing off with the IP upon creation of this account.

Decline reason:

Obvious sock, editing only Syriac-related topics like the sockmaster, plus checkuser confirmation. — Sandstein 08:14, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
