Request reason:

I created this account so that I could edit articles on the federal judiciary.

Then, I logged into Wikipedia with this user account.

But, when I clicked "Edit Source", I was unable to edit, and I got the following message:

"You are still able to view pages, but you are not currently able to edit, move, or create them. Editing from 2602:306:BD89:F550:0:0:0:0/64 has been blocked (disabled) by DoRD for the following reason(s): CheckUser evidence has determined that this IP address or network has been used (not necessarily by you) to disrupt Wikipedia."

I have never made any disruptive edits to Wikipedia. In fact, I haven't made any edits at all.

But, apparently, I am unable to edit, because I'm using this account on a computer affected by a block.

Can you unblock me, so that I can at least edit from this account? Chronicler of the Federal Judiciary (talk) 15:22, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Checkuser verified abuser of multiple accounts. An entirely unambiguous case. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇} 21:13, 12 August 2017 (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.

Note to reviewing admin: Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Conflict of laws junkie. —DoRD (talk) 16:02, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am, most certainly, not a sockpuppet of User:Conflict of laws junkie, or anyone else. I think you should assume good faith. The account I created was legitimate, and I created it for the legitimate purpose of editing articles about the federal judiciary.

When I logged in on this username to edit, I discovered a message that this IP had been used by someone to vandalize Wikipedia. Because I have logged into WP on an IP that had been used by someone to disrupt Wikipedia, that's probably why your investigation thought, erroneously, that I am a sockpuppet.

The "someone" who disruptively used this IP, was not me! Please unblock this user account. Because I am a trained lawyer, I can use my knowledge of the court system to make a positive contribution to Wikipedia.

Can someone give me guidance: What's the best way to prove I'm not a sock, to be unblocked? Chronicler of the Federal Judiciary (talk) 17:16, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have no checkuser authority. But be aware that a checkuser block is not placed only on the basis of co-incidence of IP. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 19:21, 12 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
