Blocked as a sockpuppet

Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively as a sockpuppet of User:Andrew5 per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Andrew5. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse.

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 why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}}. Note that anything you post in your unblock request will be public, so you may alternatively use the Unblock Ticket Request System to submit an appeal if it contains information that must be private.

Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped.

Request reason:

Excuse me, but I have no idea what's going on here. I saw some interesting weather articles that I wanted to add to Wikipedia, and now I was accused of being an LTA? And how am I confirmed? Is it because we're both AT&T users in North America who go to the same school? Both IPs that I used were public IPs (2600:387::/40 and 170.24.150.0/24). May I have a re-review please? (Preferably before Vermont locks this account, denying any appeal.) --CrossBayFan (talk) 14:48, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Confirmed block evasion from someone who continues to demonstrate they are terrible at block evasion. Yamla (talk) 15:08, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

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.

CrossBayFan, you're also not good at editing--what is this supposed to mean? Drmies (talk) 15:13, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Drmies that's because Tails Wx does not know how grammar works apparently, despite being at RFA. --CrossBayFan (talk) 15:16, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - Hmm I don't know why you are blaming someone else for your edit, question mark. "Nearly 1,500 power outages occurred across Connecticut, which included 11% of Weston experiencing power outages." The grammatical problem here lies in the "experiencing" bit--and isn't "Connecticut" the antecedent of "which", which makes the sentence's grammar even weirder?
