SVPGlobal moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, SVPGlobal, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Blocked as a sockpuppet
 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts&#32;as a sockpuppet of User:Branpedia&#32;per the evidence presented at Sockpuppet investigations/Branpedia. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. --Blablubbs (talk) 12:04, 10 October 2021 (UTC)

Unblock request
331dot, forgive me if I used the wrong term; by "IP account" I simply mean an IP. As far as I understand it the accusation boils down this: 154.17.0.0/16 edited the same pages as Branpedia and me (DesertDana), and therefore I am an alleged sockpuppet of Branpedia. However, a CU by AmandaNP determined "Unrelated - not using proxies, with very static IP a solid distances away from each other." Also, we never edited the same page, despite me making 169 total edits on 106 pages and Branpedia making 514 total edits on 292 pages. Furthermore, Branpedia uses a reference style different than mine. Below is a list of our last three citations.
 * Branpedia's last three citations:
 * Sarah Pringle, "Avista to Make 3.7 Times its Money with Sale of Arcadia Consumer Healthcare," PE Hub, August 9, 2021.
 * "The Fog 1979," Movie-Locations.com, retrieved September 25, 2021.
 * Nick Turner and Gregory Calderone, "GameStop Soars After Founder of Chewy Acquires a Stake," Bloomberg News, August 31, 2021.


 * DesertDana last three citations:

I am focusing on Branpedia because that is the account of which I'm being accused of being a sockpuppet; I would prefer it if MaggieBC was dealt with separately from me. I do not know what, if anything, was going on between Branpedia and MaggieBC, but I can assure you the tangential connection made between me and Branpedia is a coincidence. Thank you for your time.DesertDana (talk) 18:48, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * You are free to make another request for another administrator to review. If you can convince another administrator that this is a coincidence, they will unblock you. 331dot (talk) 20:37, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Unblock Request 3 - previous request declined for "procedural" reasons only
Someone else will review your request, but "I would prefer to do it under my established account" sounds like you intend to evade your block if necessary. 331dot (talk) 22:22, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * 331dot, apologies. It's not my intention to evade the block. I was under the misconception that a person could create a new account and start over. Is there a proper way to continue editing after a person's account is blocked indefinitely or is it only possible if and when that block is removed? Thanks. DesertDana (talk) 22:45, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * The block is on you as an individual, not just your account. You may not edit under any account or IP address until the block on this account is successfully appealed and removed. 331dot (talk) 00:02, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
 * OK, understood. Thanks. DesertDana (talk) 22:48, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
