Sockpuppet investigation

[edit]

An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nospamalot, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Sorry, was unaware this is a thing. Won’t happen again. Noting in defence that my edits were in good faith and correct - accusation of bias or malice made by the multiple accounts of the subject are to cover up his whitewashing of the page. Cheers.

So you're confirming that the account Nospamalot (talk · contribs) is also an account you've been using? Wikipedia only permits editors to edit under one account. If there are any other accounts or ip addresses used by yourself can you please provide a response detailing them here thanks? -- Longhair\talk 07:56, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah. Sorry. I made a nonsense password for that and then forgot it so started this. As said, didn’t realise this was a thing. But I’m not too fussed, happy for both to be deleted if you want. But repeating that the edits were in good faith and correcting a page that is basically the subjects resume (which needs to be done again because he’s again added a whole bunch of self-aggrandising stories without appropriate citations), but I’ll leave that for others.

I am going to block the former account and allow you to operate under this account only. I am not here to discuss the content of the article, moreso that I became aware of edit warring there and warned you both, and since have detected you're both using multiple accounts. Due to your honesty you are welcome to edit the article or any other while keeping in mind the policies of neutral point of view as well as requiring reliably sourced information for inclusion in any article you add to. -- Longhair\talk 08:13, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
