Hello, Willibs, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. ''You are obviously also User:WilliVerse. This is something you need to explain. Thank you. '' Drmies (talk) 14:06, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I have reverted your edits to Statecraft again, and will block your account until you come up with a satisfactory answer for the socking question. Drmies (talk) 14:52, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not, and that any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:.

Hi Drmies how do I reply to you?


 * At User talk:WilliVerse you seem to be saying you want to abandon this account (Willibs) and retain that one (WilliVerse). Can you clarify that is what you want? Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:47, 17 May 2016 (UTC)


 * To be perfectly clear about this, there is nothing to say you can't have more than one account, only that you mustn't use them in abusive ways. Common examples of abuse of two or more accounts are using different accounts to contribute to the same discussion, so as to give the misleading impression of independent support for an opinion from another person, and repeating the same edits to an article to try to get round the policy on edit-warring. I have checked the editing history of both your accounts, and I see no sign of abuse of multiple accounts. From what Drmies wrote above, it seems that he blocked you because you didn't answer his question about use of two accounts. If that is the right understanding, then since you have now answered, it should now be OK to unblock you. However, I will check with Drmies to see whether there are other considerations that I have missed. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:21, 18 May 2016 (UTC)


 * You asked what "socking" means. It's a sort of abbreviation for "using sockpuppets", which means using alternative accounts for dishonest purposes. You can read the policy regarding sockpuppets at Sock puppetry if you are interested. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:32, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Okay, well I have logged out of Willibs now, probably forever, and only logged into williverse. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WilliVerse (talk • contribs) 11:07, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
