ANI

Thanks for your e-mail, however I don't see the need to amend the blocks, however I will link the ANI thread to the sock category thread/user pages once it has been finalised and archived. GiantSnowman 14:46, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I do see a strong need to amend the blocks. There is a difference between the use of multiple Wikipedia user accounts for an improper purpose (WP:SOCK) and legitimate use of different accounts (WP:VALIDALT). As I wrote per e-mail, the way you have modified my presentation page is hiding the fact that my presentation page was mentioning the name of my previous account. It is highly disappointing.--Comptetemporaire2015 (talk) 15:04, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The block message does not say you have been abusing multiple accounts. GiantSnowman 15:06, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to insist, but the block message is misleading, and the addition of the sockpuppet tag and category are clearly improper.
  1. you blocked 6-A04-W96-K38-S41-V38 with the justification "admitted to be Pseudois, see ongoin ANI", (here and here). I have not "admitted" such thing ANI, as I had long before clearly mentioned in my presentation page that I was the same user who had contributed between 2010 and 2013 as pseudois (last edit in 2013 on en.wp).
  2. This is a legitimate use of an alternative account, it does not violate any WP policy and, as per WP:VALIDALT, "These accounts are not sockpuppets".
  3. Through this edit on my presentation page, you have deleted the reference I had made to my previous account, and three minutes later you made another edit with the mention "admitted at ANI"!
  4. Sock puppetry is defined as "the use of multiple Wikipedia user accounts for an improper purpose" (see first sentence of WP:SOCK). No abuse or improper use have ever been associated to my account. The block does not refer to any of the criteria mentioned under WP:BLOCK either.
I therefore kindly request a revert of this block for alleged sock puppetry and a restoration of my user page with its original unaltered presentation. If a category needs to be added to my account, then "Category:Wikipedians with alternative accounts" would apply, but certainly not "Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of Pseudois"
