Request reason:
I'm not exactly sure what's happened here. Apparently, someone thinks I'm G.M. Cupertino because of the quality of the edits I've made as a new user? I'm not sure who that is. Frankly, after reviewing a couple of existing pages, I found the Wikipedia edit process relatively simple to follow as I could copy comparable formats from other pages. The fact that I made numerous edits within the same general topic areas stems from the fact that I'm a semi-professional genealogist who has extensively studied the Houses of Julich, Cleves and Berg. After recently watching a TV show on Henry VIII, I was checking some facts on Wikipedia and noticed gaps in the information on these noble families and realized that anyone could sign up to add to Wikipedia's content. I did so last Wednesday and have spent the last week adding to Wikipedia's content on these families and editing existing content. My name is Thomas G. Myers (i.e. Gtommy). I have published 11 genealogical books relating to Bucks County, PA (I'm listed on Amazon.com). I'm happy to provide further evidence as to my identity.Gtommy17 (talk) 23:57, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Request reason:
P.S., If I'm looking at the correct info, I apparently edited 4 common pages out of nearly 6000 pages edited by G.M. Cupertino. I don't see how this comes close to suggesting that we're the same person.Gtommy17 (talk) 00:12, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

It's the obvious relationship to Konakonian (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) and LoveActresses (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) that did you in.—Kww(talk) 00:23, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that I see the relationship with these other user names. These other users appear to be focused on British nobility. The pages I created and the edits I did were largely limited to the Houses of Julich, Cleves and Berg, and pages that were connected to those houses. What can I do to demonstrate that I'm not the same person as this other person?Gtommy17 (talk) 00:45, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
- Someone with the ability to examine details of your access to the site (physical locations, computers, browsers, illegal proxies (if any), and similar details) will review the account. Usually takes a day or so. I'm certainly not going to unblock you, and no other admin should until that's been done.—Kww(talk) 00:55, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
OK, thanks. I'll let the process work through.Gtommy17 (talk) 01:04, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Accept reason:
Cleared by technical examination (checkuser). You will note that most of your edits have been removed, and articles you created have been deleted. I will take care of restoring them over the next few days. Sorry for the confusion. —Kww(talk) 19:49, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
I have restored all of your edits. If something looks funny, let me know, but I'm confident that everything is back the way it was.—Kww(talk) 20:39, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Thank youGtommy17 (talk) 22:38, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
