Sock puppetry is the use of one or more accounts deceptively. Usually, sockpuppets are for vandalism; a user will be blocked for vandalism, and he/she will create more accounts to vandalise or disrupt. The use of sock puppets is prohibited. All users may register a username or account from which they may edit. This account will, over time, build up an edit history and become that person's "identity", helping others to interact with the person and understand their interests and point of view.
