Block message:

Autoblocked because your IP address was recently used by "Skhantoosh". The reason given for Skhantoosh's block is: " There have been two problems with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group or a web site, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing. If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In that reason, you must: Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked. Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked. If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

Decline reason: Shame on you for attempting to violate WP:EVADE and WP:SOCK. This account is now blocked directly. Yamla (talk) 11:32, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

An administrator will show up shortly to review the block once you have added the above template to the bottom of your talk page.

If this problem affects you repeatedly, we encourage you to contact your service provider or IT department and ask them to contact Wikimedia's XFF project about enabling X-Forwarded-For HTTP headers on their proxy servers. This will reduce the chances of you being affected by future automatic blocks.

Question

I don't know why my name is listed here as locking admin. I don't think I have ever blocked this user. Deb (talk) 12:32, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You originally blocked the sockmaster account, Skhantoosh. I reblocked that user earlier this morning due to this block evasion. --Yamla (talk) 12:34, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the confirmation. That was so long ago that I had forgotten about it. Deb (talk) 12:39, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
