New user?

Are you actually new to this project? By your editing I suspect this is not your first account. You don't need to give a reliable answer, I can find out for myself. Anyways, feel free to keep commenting on the Freddie Gray talk page.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 01:40, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

Regarding this, just go to the section on my talk page where I mentioned you and start making jokes and bragging like you always do, so that you can be WP:Blocked. Or go report me at WP:ANI. Flyer22 (talk) 04:11, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

Request reason:

I was no warn, no discussion blocked for sockpuppetry. The charge is utterly false. Here's what happened. I removed something I didn't like from the Freddie Gray page, and gave a reason why in the edit summary. After someone undid my edit, instead of trying to edit-war it back in, I did the honorable and correct thing, and I gave an explanation as to why I thought the information I removed was irrelevant. Then, all of a sudden, Flyer22 says that I'm a sockpuppet, and starts reverting nearly all of my edits, despite the fact that they were helpful edits, like adding citations, and so forth. I think this requires an explanation. Dracula913 (talk) 04:33, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

Decline reason:

As Flyer22 has explained pretty clearly below, the evidence against you is exceedingly strong. Yunshui ^雲_水 08:36, 8 May 2015 (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.

Based on your edits, your obsession with reverting Flyer22, and technical evidence showing that you are editing from the same area and internet service provider led to your block. There is no warning prior to a sockpuppet block, as you should know from the previous ones. I encourage you to request an unblock via your Cali11298 account through the unblock ticket system and agree to abide by the standard offer. Tiptoety ^talk 04:44, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

"technical evidence showing that you are editing from the same area and internet service provider". Really? Alright, looking at Cali11298's user page, I see he lives in New Jersey. So do I. That's why you blocked me? You think I'm the only Wikipedian who edits and live in New Jersey. I believe there are a lot of them. Which explains why we would have the same internet service provider. And I wasn't obsessed with reverting Flyer. I only reverted him after he reverted my helpful, contributive edits with a small edit summary that charged me of being a sock of someone else, when in fact, I wasn't that sock. I believe that the other user, Flyer, acted inappropriately. I mean, he reverted all my edits based on a whim, and he didn't even have any solid evidence at the time (I still don't believe there is any solid evidence). All I want to do is help Wikipedia's articles and be a good person, maybe make some friends here. Dracula913 (talk) 04:51, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

First thing's first: Your contribution history -- what you've stated either in your edit summaries or on talk pages -- shows that you are not a WP:Newbie; that is why TheGracefulSlick questioned your newness above. Now let's move on: You want us to believe that it's a coincidence that you live in the same state as Cali11298 (talk · contribs), have the same Internet service provider as Cali11298, started editing a little after the latest Cali11298 WP:Sockpuppets were blocked (the Dracula913 account started editing at "19:13, 6 May 2015"), that you started editing the types of political articles that Cali11298 edits, that you edited the Death of Freddie Gray article (an article that Cali11298 heavily focused on as HydrocityFerocity (talk · contribs)), and that you made this comment? As far as that comment goes, no new Wikipedia editor would have stated "there is neither technical nor behavioral proof." And more suspicious timing is that minutes after I reverted this Cali11298 IP WP:Sockpuppet (see the report here), you showed up to post to Talk:Death of Freddie Gray. What more is there? Well, Cali11298 is fond of using Politico as a source (see here and here for recent examples); as seen here, you don't mind that source either. If you are not Cali11298 (not that I buy that you are not him), why didn't you respond to the accusation on my talk page or above in the section where TheGracefulSlick questioned your newness? Claims of coincidence and innocence is behavior that Cali11298 always engages in, as seen here, here and at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Cali11298/Archive. He is also known to be a compulsive liar, and to refer to me as a "he" and by other male pronouns despite knowing that I'm female. All of this adds up to you being Cali11298; and I mean that the chance that you are not him is very slim. You can claim that none of this evidence proves that you are him, and go on and on about coincidences, but I've never needed much evidence to know when I am dealing with Cali11298.

The main things that separate you from Cali11298 is that you didn't instantly create a user page (which is likely due to what I recently stated), that there is something different going on with the technical data (because you very likely used some type of tool to evade WP:CheckUser detection), and that Tiptoety apparently has not located any Cali11298 WP:Sleepers this time.
