Have you ever edited under another username?
Looking at your initial edits, it's clear that you're not a total newbie. Have you edited Wikipedia under a previous username?

Can we unblock GGrandad pending the outcome of the Checkuser? Since his edits are not rank vandalism I think a more deliberative approach would be appropriate. DocumentError (talk) 06:47, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * He was not banned for Vandalism most of the socks operators don't.He was banned for his WP:DE for example one of his edits in this reincarnation is sourcing Israeli spokesman statement to Muslim brotherhood site.--Shrike (talk) 08:34, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * That sounds like something that can be resolved through a discussion regarding RS and doesn't require the imposition of a penultimate penalty like indefinite blocks. DocumentError (talk) 21:28, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * He as a person was blocked from Wikipedia if he want to return he should take an WP:OFFER.--Shrike (talk) 21:44, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I reiterate my request that the Checkuser investigation be finished and he be unblocked in the interim (or the term of his block be lowered to 48 hours). Otherwise, if he is exonerated, this matter is likely to fall through the cracks. DocumentError (talk) 21:49, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Blocking obvious socks is standard policy.TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 23:26, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm unaware of this policy, at least insofar as it applies when an active sock investigation is occurring. Can you point to it? DocumentError (talk) 23:54, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * There is no active SPI to my knowledge.TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 00:12, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
