	Hi. Just a comment: ordinary editors and admins don't have access to logged-in users' IP addresses per Misplaced Pages privacy policy. Only a very select few would be able to look at your IP address to see if it is shared with other editors. Just making sure you know that. ] 04:37, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

	Are we really having such a hard time with determining that I am not the user you're accusing me of being? Is it really so hard to believe that I agree with him, and am otherwise unaffiliated? Can you really justify a blanket indefinite ban as a result of a single post that agrees with another user? I'm totally amazed honestly.

			*]
	And how can you possibly say that I'm using complex[REDACTED] procedures and must therefore be a sock puppet? Me signing one post incorrectly is what started this mess to begin with. Someone please submit this issue to an impartial admin with actual authority. IP addresses must be reviewed in order to clear this up. I'm not user:Miracleimpulse, but I do agree with his viewpoint. That is all.

	Still not unbanned, still not a sockpuppet. Oh the injustice of it all...

	And in point 3 of my post, I didn't make any assumptions at all. I only posted what it looked like to me. The post in question asked specifically for an outside opinion and I gave it. Sorry if you found it offensive!

	I love how theres some kind of "wiki-trial" going against me here..

	..and I can't even post on it in my own defense because I'm banned.

	Oh, I can't post on the admin board either.

It has nothing to do with being offensive, it's simply is jumping to an conclusion; and in this case an incorrect one... and the outside opinion I was looking for was on ]'s disruptive actions surrounding several articles and debates here, not on the article content which I think has a pretty good consensus and it has been strongly demonstrated several times now that the version of the article ] favors is too reliant on ] and draws far too many conclusions not supported by the sources thus far provided.--] 14:35, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
	:One more thing... Sockpuppet investigations tend to take a long time... I initiated one near the beginning of November and it still has not been undertaken yet.

Before I do that though I'd like you to confirm something. This has no bearing on whether I'll help you or not (if you ask me to I will initiate the process), but it will help me with said process.

This would '''not''' be a ] violation if these are both your accounts since you are not actively editing from both, but if they are both your accounts, they resolve to the same IP, and you state that here before I initiate the process it goes a long way towards establishing that you are telling the truth (and if they are not both your accounts, you state that , and they resolve to different IPs that is fine to). Either way it is going to help your request to go on record here. Can you confirm or deny this?--] 15:28, 22 December 2006 (UTC)


	They are in fact both my accounts. I'd honestly forgotten I created the earlier one. (As I said, I've been watching this article for quite a while). As to the logout, I had closed out wikipedia, and reopened it. My browser settings logged me out upon closing it, and I didn't realize it. It was my intention to post the same comment in both places with the newly created account. Any assistance you might offer me would be greatly appreciated.

	And my original post was meant to convey that I don't feel that user: Miracleimpulse's contributions to the sweetest day page constitute original research. Every contribution Miracleimpulse has made has been previously published, and I still find his contributions to be valuable.

I have unprotected and blanked this talk page after a very polite email from the user.

Checkuser seems to have shown that this user is not a sockpuppet account, and he seems (based on his email) very likely to behave perfectly well going forward. I will chat with him about the Sweetest Day issue to make sure he understands our policies.

As a good faith gesture, I am unblocking. This user is under no special protection from me, but should be treated as any other newbie.--Jimbo Wales 06:22, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
