epecially since I was only able to make a handful of edits before being reported, but from what I can see, the Echigo Mole vandal is described as being mathematically incompetetent, clueless, only trolling and so forth. The few edits I was able to make have not been described that way by members of the
Mathematics Project, and indeed at least one other editor has come here to support my edits as sensible and constructive. (I agree that one particular editor has, rather vociferously, argued that my edits are all trolling, but I submit that he is in a minority.) If Echigo Mole is a clueless troll, and the consensus is that my edits are neither clueless nor trolling, then that seems to be the best evidence I can offer that I am not them (indeed, I find it hard to see what sort of evidence I could possibly submit in this situation apart from the opinions of other mathematics editor). So, please, consider unblocking me and allow me o continue to edit constructively.
819:
from your WP autobiography, these topics fall outside your particular expertise. Identifying sockpuppets relies, however, on knowing about the huge number of previous socks and their behaviour. This person is wikihounding me, following my edits. A lot of the identification of Echigo mole socks does not concern his mathematics, which is on a uniformly low and superficial level, but in his use of
English. Your level of English, as you admit yourself and as is evident from your writing above, is probably not on a high enough level for you to be able to recognize certain tell-tale features in his use of English (is he writing in British English or American English?). But returning to how socks are discovered, compare this account with another recently blocked account
397:. SPI reports on registered accounts are usually made with requests for checkuser. The editing is from the UK, as is the spelling. It's easy enough to find examples of where this user has attempted to start arbcom cases or to intervene in others, has invented sockpuppet categories for me, started SPi reports on his own sockpuppets and so on. I don't think D. Lazard has any special new insight into the sockpuppetry issues here. There is zero probability that Hyperbaric oxygen will be unblocked, particularly because of the subsequent IP trolling. The editing by these accounts is never viewed in isolation and SPI reports necessarily involve showing prior behaviour being repeated, as is manifestly the case here. The account
275:, when he tried to edit articles on conformal field theory and vertex algebras. He did so again today. He's no better in articles on Jordan algebras or univalent functions. The point is, and this is what perhaps D. Lazard is missing, Echigo mole/A.K. Nole always picks a specialist subject, usually neglaected, where I'm creating content after very little has been added for very long periods. If D. Lazard had seen the nonsensical articles on Aix-en-Provence that Echigo mole wrote (4 have been deleted), he might form a different opinion. Perhaps

Individually those accounts might appear fine, but they were the same person. The same here, about 6 or 7 recent socks all editing articles on Jordan algebras out-of-the-blue and commenting on WikiProject
Mathematics. None of these are good faith edits and it is the same old pattern of wikihounding. Currently, whatever D. Lazard's private views on one isolated account, this is a period of hyperactivity. The

My suggestions were entirely constructive. If other editors disagree, they can say so. I can hardly believe that the editor who complained about me even read those comments. Is this the normal way to treat an editor who goes to the WikiProject pages to start a sensible discussion? What was I expected to do?

Again blocked by a checkuser (Timotheus Canens). If he's going to make these fatuous unblock requests while creating 3 or 4 new sock accounts every day, perhaps it might be an idea in future to block without talk page access. Echigo mole is inept at mathematics, as his failed attempts to write down

D. Lazard is ignoring the, history and pattern of coordinated socking as well as the role of checkusers. Why would an IP from the UK suddenly spring up to add trolling messages on talk pages about

I am sorry to have to make a further request, it seems that my previous request was not clear enough. I request to be unblocked on the grounds that I was blocked for being someone else, when I believe that it is reasonably clear that I am in fact not that person. It is hard to prove a negative,

British. Both made their way to WikiProject Mathematics to troll there. It was properly identified in the CU/SIP report by two experienced administrators, one of them a checkuer.

Mathsci private opinion about my supposed ignorance is out of scope here. Nevertheless the only rationale that Mathsci provides for asserting that this particular account is a sockpuppet is that there are presently a lot of sockpuppet activities from UK. This is a weak argument.
