Second request for unblock

 * I'm reasonably familar with the Tdv123 sockpuppets and I'm fairly sure Gavin is a different person, especially taking their statement on face value. Obviously we do have no way of knowing who's using an account, and since Tdv123 is very much a SPA focused on The Troubles perhaps an unblock for Gavin with a Troubles TBAN might work?

 * I'm not the blocking admin, but what you say sounds okay to me. 331dot (talk) 09:26, 18 March 2022 (UTC)


 * as the blocking admin/checkuser any thoughts on this? I was rather surprised at the initial findings since there's no apparent editing similarity, either in style or subjects. For that reason I'm genuninely of the opinion they are two different people, and a Troubles TBAN (which would not be an inconvenience since Gavin has never edited a Troubles article) would solve any problems of being unsure who is editing.

 * It's been long enough that I hardly remember any of this. This is not a CU block, and I trust 's judgment on how to deal with this. GeneralNotability (talk) 20:06, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Gavin the Otter, is such a Tban okay with you? 331dot (talk) 08:58, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
