Request reason:

I am writing to appeal the block that has been imposed on my Wikipedia account. I believe that there might have been a misunderstanding, as I am not associated with any of the accounts mentioned in the ongoing investigation.

I want to clarify that I use Wikipedia solely from my personal computer and do not utilize any VPN. I am more than willing to provide any necessary proof to support this claim.

Regarding the article in question, I stumbled upon it randomly while browsing through articles related to the subject. My initial intention was to assist by removing excessive citation templates to improve the quality of the content. After revisiting the article, I noticed that the deletion process was underway. In order to make an informed decision, I carefully examined all available sources before placing my vote.

I genuinely value the integrity and guidelines of Wikipedia, and I assure you that I am not involved with any of the accounts under investigation. I request your kind consideration in reviewing my appeal and reinstating my account.

Thank you for your time and understanding. I look forward to resolving this matter positively Topboy92 (talk) 12:50, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

This is a checkuser block, meaning that it is supported with private technical evidence(that even I don't have access to, though they claim you are using a proxy) so a connection to the other accounts involved is not in doubt. I also do not believe that you randomly arrived at the subject involved. 331dot (talk) 09:19, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

331dot Thank you for your response and the clarification regarding the nature of the block. I have minimum understanding of your point regarding the checkuser block and the associated technical evidence. While I respect your assessment, I genuinely want to emphasize that I have no connection to the other accounts mentioned and I assure you that I access Wikipedia directly from my personal computer without the use of a VPN, if required I can provide proof of address along with my internet bills. As for the subject involved, I encountered it while browsing Officers Training Academy (OTA) article which was connected to another research I was doing for subject Amir Gulistan Janjua. I attempted to contribute positively on Anoop Madhavan's article by removing excessive citation template. Subsequently, I visited the page again to assess the progress of my edits and encountered the deletion issue, prompting me to carefully review the sources and place my vote. Additionally, to the best of my understanding, I was not initially implicated in the investigation. My inclusion came about based on a comment received from another editor at a later stage. Over the past few days, I've extensively reviewed various articles to gain a comprehensive understanding of Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. I'm genuinely interested in further expanding my knowledge. Hence, I respectfully appeal for a reconsideration of my situation. I'm enthusiastic about contributing constructively to Wikipedia's community. Your understanding and reconsideration would be greatly appreciated. Topboy92 (talk) 11:46, 25 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

I don't believe you. You can appeal this block from your original account. OhNoitsJamie Talk 16:02, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
