Blocked as a sockpuppet edit

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Kingshowman per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kingshowman. 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 for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  - TheresNoTime 😺 17:58, 24 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

I'm simply not a sockpuppet of the user in question. I did a bit of editing because I ended up hyperfocusing on Wikipedia for a day or two then I've been inactive for a while.

I don't see how my edit behavior (however small) has been disruptive in any way, or has been symptomatic of Kingshowman sockpuppet accounts as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/Kingshowman
I also control accounts on other sites with this alias, all of which are much older than this account. I've edited the about pages of these accounts to demonstrate I still have control over them with the phrase "Hi Wikipedia admins :D".

Decline reason:

The evidence would seem to indicate otherwise. 331dot (talk) 06:23, 26 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
