Request reason:

There has been a misunderstanding. An admin thought I was a sockpuppet because I have not used this account for several years. Today was the first time I made an edit to a page in almost 8 years, but I have used this account before. The edit I was blocked for was made on an article's talk page, where I was trying to argue the merits of an article edit. There was no vandalism involved; no edit was forced without consensus onto the article itself. Also, legitimate edits in other subjects have been made with this account in the past. This account was not created for a single purpose. Whymy (talk) 08:08, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This appears to be a sleeper account resurrected for nefarious purposes. PhilKnight (talk) 22:36, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To the reviewing admin - no, I am not presenting any additional evidence. Classic nondescript 4channers reviving old accounts to dance on Ryulong's grave. https://boards.4chan.org/m/thread/12027677/so-uh-remember-the-neoheisei-trash-guy-ryulong#p12033337 ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 07:39, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

I was banned and accused of using this account for "nefarious purposes" while trying to make a meaningful contribution to what is an ongoing discussion. I am hoping that cooler heads will prevail and that any reviewing admin will see that I am only trying to contribute in a positive fashion. Whymy (talk) 22:28, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I don't see how repeating two-year-old arguments without any new evidence or argument can be considered a positive contribution. I also consider "resurrected sleeper sock" a likely explanation. Huon (talk) 14:19, 7 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
