Request reason:

It seems to me that the blocking admin didn't think to de-hat and read my three talk page archives above. If they had, the chances of me being re-blocked would've been less. I will repeat the comment I made when appealing the previous block in direct response to the accused sock puppetry: I have routinely been editing from school, so it is extremely likely that the other user mentioned above is someone else connecting via the same network. My school has one network for students and one network for staff, so this is likely to happen. As noted above, I would never intentionally impersonate someone, and have requested a UN change just to be sure. The other blocked user mentioned I have no ties to and it is someone whom I do not recognize. It is extremely likely that other users at my school are the ones vandalizing/impersonating, and now I'm caught in some sort of collateral. It's not super urgent since I don't actually edit here frequently anymore, but would still like to get this situation fixed up. MPD (Talk to me!) 21:24, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This account and one of the other accounts involved show a particular striking coincidence in editing history, and for two people to independently come up with that, within a short time of one another, both editing from the same school, is just too much of a coincidence to be at all plausible.

Request reason:

I can confirm that I was NOT involved in any of the impersonating accounts. I have spoken to several members of my school's administration, and, although we have not been able to confirm exactly who was involved, the school officials and IT Tech Department will be keeping a close eye for any further issues. Therefore, I request that this account be unblocked at this time. I also note for disclosure purposes that I do edit frequently through the Puffin Web Browser, mainly for privacy reasons. The current proxy block (made by @DeltaQuad: just a few weeks ago) is set to one of Puffin's key ranges, and it appears to be a hardblock. If this account is unblocked, I would also need to request either that the Puffin block be changed to anonymous users only and/or this account be granted the IP block exemption userright. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I apologize for the confusion and the disruption. I promise that I will never engage in it and in fact I am deeply saddened by it, as I believe Wikipedia can be a great place when people want it to be. Sincerely, Matthew Peter-Davis

On a side note, I am not happy with the fact that I was not given a chance to respond to the sockpuppetry claims brought against me. The SPI was filed, a CheckUser looked at it, blocked me and closed the case. Not appropriate IMHO. MPD (Talk to me!) 21:33, 3 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
