Hello, I'm AgisdeSparte. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Tommy (The Who album), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. AgisdeSparte (talk) 02:10, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unblocked

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:

Hello. I'm new to Wikipedia and there's been a mistake. I'm not that person, but I don't know how I can prove I am not. Is there a way or I will be blocked forever based on an assumption, like the person who blocked me admitted? For what I checked, the pages that the person they accuse me of being and the pages that I recently edited have nothing to do with each other, for instance.

Decline reason:

Simple denial is insufficient. Please address the similarity in your edits with those given over at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Lemaroto/Archive. I'll note the technical evidence is Inconclusive but consistent with you being a sock of Lemaroto. A checkuser with more experience with this specific sockmaster may have better luck.

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.

Unblock 2

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:

Again, I'm new here, and don't know what my edit similarities with this Lemaroto are. The link that it was sent to me doesn't have my profile mentioned. How can I defende myself if I don't have the "proof" against me? Can someone help? Where can I view the similarities? I can't address them if I don't know what they are.

Decline reason:

Per below. Regrettably (for you) we do not make checkuser results public. Yes, some sort of due process and right to confront the evidence against you would be nice, but we're a private website and we can run our affairs, when within the law as they are, as we see fit. And it fits us to not make it easy for any would-be sockpuppet to know how they can do it better next time. — Daniel Case (talk) 07:22, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@NinjaRobotPirate: OK to unblock?-- Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:45, 20 January 2024 (UTC) @Pinballmagician: Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Lemaroto/Archive. Thanks.-- Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:45, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No. See [1] and compare to the CU data for Lgtva (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki). See also the logged out edits, which are even more obvious. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 15:48, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not a check user, so some things are not meant for my eyes. Hopefully one will come along without me pinging, so I recuse. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 12:24, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
