User:Kaspersky Trust

I am known as Kaspersky Доверие at Wikimedia Commons. I improve pictures there and upload my own. I angered User:JW1805 by improving some of his pictures. I did not mean to do this. I was only trying to make them better. He told User:Jayjg that I am a sock puppet of a banned user named User:Zephram Stark. Jayjg put a suspected sock puppet label on my Wikipedia account and said to refer to contributions for evidence. When you click on the contributions link on the label he put on my page, it shows the contributions of some other user. My contributions would show that I have done nothing wrong. I told my friend Ezhiki that I thought Jayjg's accusation against me was a mistake and Jayjg blocked me indefinitely. I wrote to Jimbo Wales about this but got no response. I made an unblock request on my talk page [1] requesting that anyone other than Jayjg please review my request. Jayjg erased it and locked my pages. [2]
I was new at Wikipedia and naive. I thought that if our intention was to always make things better and try to get along, that we would be welcomed. I get JW1805's message now. He can stop me from editing and he doesn't like people messing with his pictures. My intention was not to mess with his pictures. I wasn't trying to take anything away from him. I was only trying to help the project, to improve things, but my eyes are open now. I understand his message and I see the order of things. I will actively avoid JW1805's things in the future and I'm sorry for the offense I caused. It was not intentional. Wikipedia is a big place. Please let me share my photos and contribute in places that are not offensive to anyone. I can do much to help Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons if you will please let me. I will be more sensitive to the article and picture ownerships that people like JW1805 have here. Could someone other than Jayjg please review my contributions and do an actual CheckUser on my IP to see if they think there is any evidence or indication that I might be a sockpuppet? --Kaspersky Trust 04:48, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- I've contacted Jayjg regarding the matter, and I will wait for their response. Kilo-Lima|(talk) 16:48, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

We can't lay evidence out in pages like this see Wikipedia:Beans for some of the reasons. I will however review the evidence myself and speak to Jayjg about this. Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 09:20, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
- Right I've done that and i'm satisfied that this is a sockpuppet account. Theresa Knott | Taste the Korn 16:18, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
