Grant Guilford

Kia ora! Thanks for your contributions to Grant Guilford's page. I am wary that some of the contributions veer away from his administrative career, but instead are more of a history of the university. I've started a conversation at The New Zealand Wikipedia Project page. If you could join in there that would be great. Nauseous Man (talk) 10:33, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

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/Pukateabob, 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.

Blocked for sockpuppetry

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Pukateabob.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. - TheresNoTime ^😺 20:42, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hi TheresNoTime, you've made a mistake with this block. I am new to Wikipedia and haven't assumed multiple identities. I am not sure why that would be advantageous when just adding factual biographical information to a biography of a living person. PukateabobPukateabob (talk) 11:45, 16 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Sockpuppetry was confirmed and is not in doubt. Yamla (talk) 12:15, 16 August 2021 (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.
