Welcome to Wikipedia, Iowawindow! I am A8UDI and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

Blocked as a sock puppet

You may contest this block by adding the text
{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but please read our guide to appealing blocks first.{{unblock|As far as i can tell, this block accuses me of being a sock or meatpuppet for editing medical cannabis, based on similar behaviour patterns between my editing and that of sko1221. looking at the comments from the Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Sko1221/Archive, i do notice that sko12221 also objected to the lead image as i recently did (on the basis that ti is neither representative of raw usage or present pharmaceuticals). I assume that, and the fact that i have been on and off active on the medical cannabis page is the reason for the accusation. As for IP addresses, i use public computers at my school, so its marginally possible that that is the cause of the overlap (though its a small school in mexico so i doubt it). As evidence of my non-sockpuppetery, i present my editing patterns, which for the most part have been focused on improving sourcing and minor edits except in the case of some mexico articles and medical cannabis, which i feel need improving. so i request 1 that the ip address be unblocked, as its from an entire school, and 2 that my account be unblocked, because, um, im not a sockpuppet}}

Iowawindow, my apologies for blocking you. I did indeed misread the results that CheckUser reported and did not see that you were unrelated. MuZemike 07:15, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
- no big deal, it was resolved suprisingly quickly :)Iowawindow (talk) 17:25, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
