Disambiguation link notification for July 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Vyapam scam, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ghaziabad. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Request reason:

Hi. First of all, I would like to apologize for not reading the editing guidelines properly. I was under the impression that I could ask for support from editors not only for editing a Wiki page but also for other matters as well. That's why I asked Expertseo to vote. Secondly, I am not not a sockpuppet of any account and never indulged in any sort of vandalism. The admins can verify it by going through my edit history. Rather, I have always tried to contribute to Wikipedia in the best possible manner. When I was asked to present my case and others asked me about being a sockpuppet of the above-mentioned account, I declined, because I am not. However, later on, when I went through the guidelines and discussions, I found that because of common edit interests and may be similar IP class, I have been accused of being so. Since I was not aware of these things (sockpuppet), I was not able to present my case properly. Expertseo is a different individual and taught me how to edit on Wikipedia. He is no longer active. However, during the article deletion voting process, I asked for his support (I was not aware that it was against the guidelines). I now understand where I went wrong and assure the community that I will not do so in the future. Kindly unblock me so that I can continue with my edits. I have put lots of efforts and time (one of the pages that I created was the 19th most viewed page globally) and would definitely be a setback for me not being able to contribute further. At one place I read that it is not a punitive action but a preventive one. Since my edit history is not dubious and I believe my contributions have been in the positive direction, I hope that the admins will unblock me as I have learnt the lesson, although the hard way.

Decline reason:

Checkuser  Confirmed sock puppet. Please explain why you, Expertseo, and several other users were all repeatedly using the same computer. Reaper Eternal (talk) 01:15, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Reaper Eternal As I said, I only know Expertseo and not others. And we are not using the same computer. Maybe it is due to the shared IP address. Katyaan (talk) 06:43, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Checkuser indicates that there is a technical match between you and Expertseo. This block can only be reviewed by another CU. —Jeremy v^_^v ^Bori! 18:03, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
