405:, I read through the essay you linked and I understand the premise, however, I do not think it is applicable in my case here. I was only asking you to verify the most pressing issues based on Tamzin’s findings, not cite new or other reasons. Unless you are saying there are other reasons outside of what she has stated that are the reason for the block? The intent of my account was to create and improve articles with reliable and encylcopedic material. If you look through the edit history, you will see that I did not push a POV but use reliable and academic sources to state the facts listed within those sources. In fact, I just noticed a merge Tamzin did with the Akshardham (religion) article to Akshar Purushottam Darshan. In her edit summary, she states “all recent edits were from sockpuppets (WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Moksha88), and before they showed up it was actually even worse.” Tamzin is indicating that my edits (and Moksha88 who edited as well) actually began to improve the article? So again, my intent of joining Knowledge and editing was for the sole purpose of improvements and creating encyclopedic content. If you could please shed more clarity on the block, it will help me in my appeal and show that I am a distinct editor and my behavior is in fact completely different from Moksha88. Looking forward to hearing from you. 1898:, a meatpuppet is defined as "one who engages in the same behavior as another user in the same context, and who appears to be editing Knowledge solely for that purpose..." The numerous examples provided in this appeal show that I did not engage in the same behavior as the accused 'master' Moksha88. I skimmed through Moksha88's edit history, and the user has been editing quite longer than me, has a presence on medical-related articles, and has not influenced my editing. As stated by the policy and examples, the accusations of meatpuppetry are null. The harsh accusation of meatpuppetry also implies that I am attempting to "game the system." Based on this guideline 1074:, a meatpuppet is defined as "one who engages in the same behavior as another user in the same context, and who appears to be editing Knowledge solely for that purpose..."

create a shared account. Based on the sockpuppetry policy, the Checkuser evidence, and my unique and distinct activity on Knowledge, I refute any claim of being a sockpuppet of Moksha88. Since joining Knowledge in 2019, my goal as an editor has always been to improve the encyclopedic value of articles, and my activity substantially reflects. In fact, the users who have accused me of various infractions have complimented my work. I hope that you favorably consider my case and allow me to continue contributing to the bank of knowledge found in Knowledge while defending its principles.

example, an experienced editor had initially made this accusation against me, however, after examining the sources more closely, the editor apologized and acknowledged the contributions I made to significantly improve the Swaminarayan Sampradaya article. User Tamzin made a similar comment. In her edit summary she states that ‘sockpuppets’ improved the article, which I assume she is referring to myself or to Moksha88 as we both had made such edits.

This may have been another miscommunication.

I read through the response by Moksha88 and your reply thereafter where you state, "the core issue is not that there is a group of editors who edit Knowledge in favor of 'BAPS and associated entities' in opposition to a 'rival anti-BAPS sockfarm.'" Yet it appears that Tamzin has indicated otherwise.
