Three usernames are evident; the editor has admitted use of multiple accounts, at. --23:37, 14 June 2016 (UTC) Hi it would be handy if AliceQuayle and SunshineRamsey were retired. sorry for the faff. Cheers.--Sunshineramsey71 (talk) 23:37, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
 * AliceQuayle is dormant since July 2015 This article revision history shows both AliceQuayle and Sunshineramsey performed multiple edits, totalling 34 minutes apart.
 * Sunshineramsey has been advised of multiple username policy at talk page section by Rocknrollmancer 13 June 2016.
 * Sunshineramsey made 3 edits 00.28, 00.31, 00.33 14 June 2016 (sometimes there is one-hour discrepancy in timestamp due to UK summertime).
 * Sunshineramsey71 first/last edited 00.43, 1.03 14 June (possibly similar timestamp discrepancy)
 * Sunshineramsey71 Wikipedia username was established 00.35, 14 June, as an extension of a Commons registration, established 17 May 2016
 * Conclusion. At Files for discussion, the editor has admitted ownership of multiple accounts, claiming to be unable to remember initial Master password, and is no longer able to log-in to 1st Sock, also confirming no intention to deceive at talk page. Editor cannot retire the previous accounts as cannot log-in. Suggest these are blocked, leaving Sunshineramsey71 as the only accessible username. I will message talk page(s) to that effect.

Hm... I thought it was that I registered AliceQuayle first and then when I couldn't access that one (because of defunct email), started up the Sunshineramsey one? But thanks, I shall endeavour to get that sorted, cheers....frankly I cant remember why I had two accounts on the go at once.... I probably was just guessing passwords and one of them worked..maybe with two windows open...maybe trouble signing in to upload images to commons.... it wasn't any nefarious purpose.... and had no idea of the concept of sockpuppetry... though I have made a few puppets out of actual socks ;).... as I said I shall have a go at what you recommend cheers...though I don't think I have access to AliceQuayle or SunshineRamsey.. I could just put a note on Sunshineramsey71 that I've used them in the past.?.--Sunshineramsey71 (talk) 23:29, 14 June 2016 (UTC) Hi - have set up a SunshineRamsey71 page and put a note on it - hope that clarifies things a bit? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sunshineramsey71 Sunshineramsey71 (talk) 23:45, 14 June 2016 (UTC) Hi, I've checked my preferences and the email is current / live / valid.Sunshineramsey71 (talk) 00:03, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Can you explain this situation? You say that you registered the AliceQuayle account because you forgot the Sunshineramsey password, but then you were editing as Sunshineramsey after you registered AliceQuayle. That makes no sense. If you have multiple accounts, you have to disclose them on your user page(s) per WP:ALTACCN. And, please, set a valid e-mail address in your preferences so that you can reset your password if you forget it again. I am not going to block you if you do this as soon as possible (disclose accounts and set e-mail).  Vanjagenije  (talk)  15:57, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, I see. Thanks. It's OK now. Be sure not to use multiple accounts in the future because next time you may be just blocked without discussion.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  00:11, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
