Misconceptions
How can you confirm sock-puppetry when I don’t know what other accounts you think I have? I have done nothing wrong. All I was doing was discussing a Wikipedia-related topic. Best, Powerplay44 (talk) 22:24, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

 * I appreciate your quick response. I am only trying to figure out what’s going on. What is this list based on? I only recognize User:AlleghenyPA as I frequently work with him on Wikipedia. If it is IP, then it is possible that it is flawed due to a wide and rather public IP area where I reside. Powerplay44 (talk) 22:38, 27 November 2023 (UTC)


 * This is based in part on WP:CHECKUSER data and in part on overlap in edits. I want to be very clear, this is not just a "wide and rather public IP area" and is not a coincidence. This is some of the clearest technical data I've ever seen in sockpuppet investigations. --Yamla (talk) 22:42, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
 * , thank you for confirming what I also saw. Drmies (talk) 00:08, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * and If that’s how you feel, I’d like to say that I at least appreciate your attempt at keeping everything in line. I’m sorry you couldn’t help someone who is clearly being wronged.Powerplay44 (talk) 01:31, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * We're "feeling" things based on fact. You tried to game the system by using five different accounts, as well as by editing without logging in. You're not being wronged. Drmies (talk) 14:41, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
 * It seems that you’re not grasping the fact that WP:CheckUser should not be used as a be all end all, per WP:PIXIEDUST, especially when you can not be completely sure about large IP ranges that can affect innocent people like me. A large part of CheckUser is analyzing an editing pattern, and I was challenging and skeptical of User:AlleghenyPA’s sources in the discussion on his talk page, not supporting. It seems that I am a victim of WP:COLLATERAL. I have only ever used this account and I don’t recall editing without logging in. I am wrongly caught in the middle of something else!
