 * (your username makes me hungry), how about giving him a chance. It wasn't like he was hiding, and when he says "I didn't vandalize..." he meant he didn't vandalize as his new username, which is a pretty good one. Seems sincere and didn't edit war when I reverted his Leary edit. Sure, he may enter vandal-mode again at some point, but he may also be a very good editor with a caring and endearing attitude towards the project. The second option is maybe worth letting him loose and trust his words (and don't editors get to ask to come back after six months, which his appeal seems to be doing). Thanks.

 * Longer ago than I thought, he was banned in January 2021. Long time ago, in both maturing years and covid years. He broke his ban in February and March, 2021, and not since, so that's a pretty long time to sit in the penalty box. His March 2021 sock were a series of principled and maybe unique edits putting sock tags on his other socks, which seems Wikipedian-worthy in a vandally way.

 * Yes, thanks, I did take all those points in. Not a policy based argument, I'm afraid. Certainly this is not a decision I could make on my own.  Blocked by  for sock puppetry, and the Community has usually frowned upon these "oops, I did it again" fresh starts when unblock requests have been brought to them. Obviously, he had resumed the same edits he had made under previous accounts, so he cannot say he has fresh-started. These  account's edits were all disruptive. Apparently you missed the edit summaries that read, "replaced content with 'Fuck you Wikipedia bitches for not answering my unblock and reverting all of my edits!" So I do not see this as a constructive, collaborative editor who has turned over a new leaf.  Also, you are asking me to, on my own, unblock a sock of someone who is globally locked and Community banned.  My colleagues feel I'm overly WP:AGF in unblock requests to begin with, but I cannot go so far as you are asking me. --  Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:49, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
