Overview
This page lists all of the accounts that I have created for myself and technically have under my control. These accounts are all created in compliance with Wikipedia's sock puppetry policy and will remain in compliance at all times. Some accounts listed (such as those that are doppelgängers) are indefinitely blocked by me and with account creation, email, and talk page access disabled. This was done intentionally, since they will never be logged into nor be used for any functional purpose.
Unless a very rare and extremely extraordinary circumstance calls for it, all alternative "Oshwah" accounts that are legitimate will be created by my main account (Oshwah), not by an anonymous user. All other accounts that are not created in this fashion can be assumed to be illegitimate sock puppet or impersonation attempts, and you can block or globally lock them without having to question me or get my input first. The user creation log of any legit alternative accounts that I create for myself will appear as the following example below:
List of accounts
This section lists all of the accounts that I've created and have under my technical control and can log into and use. Each account will be listed in the appropriate sub-section below, and with a reason for their creation and an explanation of their intended purpose and use. Accounts that I've created for purposes not involving any kind of editing of pages or communication with any user (such as doppelgänger accounts) will typically be blocked by me for security and accountability reasons. Any questions or concerns regarding any of my alternative accounts can be expressed by discussing them with me on my user talk page.
Doppelgänger accounts
This section lists all of the accounts that I've registered as doppelgänger accounts in accordance to and within compliance of Wikipedia's sock puppetry policy. All of these accounts are indefinitely blocked by me and with account creation, email, and talk page access disabled, as they will never be logged into or used for any technical or functional purpose (I do this for security and accountability purposes).
Test accounts
This section lists all of the accounts that I've registered as test accounts in accordance to and within compliance of Wikipedia's sock puppetry policy. They will be used only for making edits or changes for the purpose of testing, experimentation, and the confirmation, recreation, or reproduction of any technical issues or bugs that have been reported or found. The account may also be be a target for test-related changes that affect user accounts (such as being blocked or temporarily granted some user permissions).
Alternative accounts
I currently have no accounts registered and used as "alternative" accounts. All of my edits and changes will either come from my primary account, or (if required as part of testing) my test account.
