July 2014[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for using multiple accounts for block evasion per Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Carthage44. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. —Bagumba (talk) 07:50, 24 July 2014 (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).

Request reason:

I am confused. Did I do something wrong? I created an account because I am a White Sox/Abreu fan and would like to help keep their pages up to date. Is this not allowed? Still pretty new to this but I thought I was doing a pretty good job updating the few pages that I edited. Please help! Abreu79 (talk) 06:03, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts. --jpgordon^{::==( o )} 13:39, 25 July 2014 (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.

Wow, exactly what was predicted. 129.78.68.1 (talk) 06:44, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I clicked on the link of this so called "sockpuppeting" and if I am understanding it correctly it seems that the person that blocked me thinks I am using a new user name while pretending to be someone else? It seems that many users that edit the White Sox page have been blocked of late which seems odd in itself. I can tell anyone that is willing to listen that I am not this person who has been "sockpuppeting" and just a fan of the White Sox that wanted to help update team pages. I am sorry if this has caused some confusion on who was editing these pages. Abreu79 (talk) 07:42, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
