User talk:Sock Buster

Blocked as a sockpuppet

You have been blocked indefinitely as a sockpuppet of a banned or blocked user. As a blocked or banned user you are not entitled to edit Wikipedia. All your edits have been reverted.

Details of how to appeal a block can be found at: Wikipedia:Appealing a block. Khoi khoi 22:26, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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).

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

Request reason:

I am not a sockpuppet of Afrika Paprika. I am a legitimate sockpuppet of a different Wikipedia editor. For privacy reasons, I will not reveal which user I am, but if the blocking admin will give me an email address, I will tell him which legitimate editor I am. As I am not a sock of this banned user, I also request that my report be un-deleted (Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Giovanni Giove (2nd))

Decline reason:

Regardless of whether this sockpuppet account is being used abusively or not, this username seems to be problematic per WP:U, so this is somewhat moot. Mango juice^talk 16:48, 4 April 2007 (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.

And no, using a second account to open up a SSP inquiry and make a complaint against another editor is not a legit second account. Even if you were another editor, this would be using a second account to avoid scrutiny: please see WP:SOCK. Patstuart^talk·edits 16:40, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
