Blocked as a sockpuppet

[edit]
Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively as a sockpuppet of User:Algebraical per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Algebraical. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.

Request reason:

This looks like an IP address that's apparently being used at a shared WiFi-connected press and media workspace that over a 100 of us journalists use every day, over five or six floors in the building. I hardly remember using Wikipedia and had started logging in from this workstation to gather notes and make corrections after months on some topics I'm researching on, but from what I can see of your weird/fascist blocks and investigations is that you'll land up banning a lot of random journalists like me here if you keep doing this, and it may not bode too well for the privacy of your platform or the privacy of your other Wikipedia editors in the long run.

Decline reason:

Per below, you admit you really don't want to get unblocked, you just want to get our attention so we can read your legal threats. For that latter reason, I will in addition to declining this non-request revoke access to this talk page as we usually do in this situation ... after all, whatever learned counsel you are able to retain to represent you in your holy cause would likely, if they are worth any of the substantial money you'd be likely to pay, advise you not to talk here after making those threats in any event. And I find some of your other threats even more disturbing (as well as your lack of faith, but that's another story). Have a nice day. — Daniel Case (talk) 06:56, 12 July 2023 (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.

You've labelled my response above as an "unblock request", but that's irrelevant as I am making no request for being unblocked, only telling you what to expect - for Wiki as well as for your other journalist-editors who all come and either protect, or, in some cases like me, "disrupt" Wikipedia. The point is that Wikipedia is not a public courtroom and you cannot create your own laws, so what's the point of this moot court that you're staging here? How about we go to a real courtroom against each other and to press? Since I'm a journalist, I love negative publicity. I'd like to read an analysis of this entire issue. Since you said account creation in itself is not banned, I'll also continue to edit Wikipedia then. SupriyaThanawala (talk) 03:53, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For future reference, and the avoidance of any doubt, the technical data associated with this and the other blocked accounts is not consistent with the assertion that they are being operated by different people on a shared network. The technical connection is much stronger than that, and the idea that they were not operated by the same person is simply not credible. And no - while it is true that having multiple accounts is allowed, they are not to be used for illegitimate purposes, and you are not permitted to create them, and any further accounts you create will be blocked as and when they are discovered. I have revoked talk page access from the other accounts, in-line with the block on this account. Girth Summit (blether) 11:12, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, you should read the guide to appealing blocks, then contact administrators by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.
Please note that there could be appeals to the unblock ticket request system that have been declined leading to the post of this notice.
