User:DragonflySixtyseven/sockpuppets creating articles

I delete a lot of articles that are submitted by accounts that are sockpuppets of blocked users... like you. This is sad -- for the most part, these articles look otherwise valid. I'm sure it took you quite a lot of effort to make those articles. So why did I do it?

You got blocked because of a problem with your behavior. Right now, you're thinking "it's not MY behavior that's the problem, the admins are corrupt, it's admin abuse, it's THEIR behavior"... well, the admins are the people who enforce the rules. If you consistently can't get along with the people who enforce the rules, then that is your problem. (And don't start complaining about the enforcement being Arbitrary and Bigoted and Corrupt; most other people are able to get along without being blocked, so why can't you manage it? To paraphrase Joe Talmadge's "Flamer's Bible", "conspiracies abound. If everyone's against, you, the reason can't possibly be that you're (wrong)."

So, you were blocked, but you still want to contribute to Wikipedia. You still want to write articles (an urge we can all understand!), but you've been blocked. The easiest thing to do, you think, is to create a new account and pretend to be someone else. "I'm not Anthony the Carnelian," you claim, "I'm Galloping Leona! I haven't done anything to make anyone mad, so I'm not in trouble!"

There are several problems with that, however. Firstly, you're lying. By pretending to be a completely different person from your initial, blocked account, you are deliberately lying about your identity. (And let's not be disingenuous about usernames vs real names -- I said identity, in the sense that my real name obviously isn't "DragonflySixtyseven" but my identity is "the guy who became an admin in 2005, and does all that patrolling, and was in a big argument on Commons about file renames, and mostly ignores AI/N, and has a minimalist userpage and signature, etc etc etc".) I'm sure that you can come up with lots of justifications for why you've adopted a new username and are pretending to be someone completely else, but the fact remains: you're deliberately, and falsely, stating that you are someone other than the person who was blocked for behavior which the admins deemed unacceptable.

If you're going to lie about something like that, how can we believe anything else you say? Anything you've submitted under your false identity can't be trusted, and has to be deleted.

Here's another point. If you object to how Wikipedia policy was enforced against you, then I'm sure you want it to be enforced uniformly and fairly. Fairness and uniformity mean that someone who has been blocked does not get to pretend to be someone completely different and submit articles that way, not even if that someone is you. A block has consequences, because otherwise it's not a block.
