Blocked as a sockpuppet
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:
I have read the block notice and the SPI at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dresq23. I did not operate User:AKLKPhilo and I have no connection with that account. I have not edited to evade any blocks or sanctions. I respectfully request that an uninvolved administrator review the SPI evidence and reconsider this block.

Decline reason:
I see nothing wrong with the reason for the block. It may very well be that you personally have not operated any other accounts, but that would only make this meat puppetry as you (and others) seem to be undisclosed paid editors. 331dot (talk) 09:25, 12 January 2026 (UTC)
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.

Request reason:
Thank you for the review. I understand the concern about possible meatpuppetry and undisclosed paid editing. I am not a paid editor, and have not received or expected compensation for any edits. There is no employer, client, or affiliation connected to my contributions. I do not know User:Dresq23 and I have no coordination with that user or any other editor regarding the edits cited. If there is evidence of paid editing or coordination, please point me to the changes so I can respond. I respectfully request reconsideration by an uninvolved administrator.

Decline reason:
My use of the CheckUser tool confirms you have used the The blue mnm account. I am declining your unblock request. PhilKnight (talk) 20:49, 12 January 2026 (UTC)

I will be appealing this CheckUser-confirmed block to the Arbitration Committee by email. Shetown84 (talk) 04:01, 14 January 2026 (UTC)

Request reason:
Thank you for reviewing. I contacted ArbCom and was advised that CheckUser-based blocks are handled through the usual unblock channels, not by ArbCom, unless there are compelling private reasons. I respectfully dispute the conclusion that I used the account “the_blue_mnm.” I have not operated that account, have not coordinated with anyone to edit on my behalf, and I am not a paid editor. I do not have an employer, client, or affiliation connected to my contributions. I request that an uninvolved checkuser review the CheckUser findings supporting this block, and that an uninvolved administrator reconsider the block based on that review. If there are specific non-private diffs relied upon for a coordination/paid-editing allegation, please point me to them so I can respond directly. Shetown84 (talk) 23:11, 15 January 2026 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Phil was an uninvolved checkuser who ran an independent use of the CU tools and arrived at the same conclusion as Izno. I am an uninvolved administrator, and based on their findings, I am declining your unblock request. voorts (talk/contributions) 04:01, 18 January 2026 (UTC)
