Update

There's no doubt any more that "Martin Packer" = "Nitramrekcap" (see this edit) = 2.30.207.146 (he sent me an email this afternoon from that IP):

  • Is there anywhere I should send the header info of the e-mail to in order to help with this SPI?
  • Of course I don't appreciate this kind of spam, and would like to ask to stop this user from sending e-mail.
  • I suppose he logs in from time to time - does that make CheckUser an asset for analysing this case? If so, please set the checkuser to "yes" on this investigation request.

Follow-up — editor has moved activities to Pre-Raphaelite content area

Posting the same typical "all-caps" messages on Jimbo's page ([2]), geolocates to the same area (South of Birmingham), same provider (Orange Home UK), same MO (i-know-all and fellow editors are nothing but a nuisance), adding/removing content and factoids because they are The TruthTM,... --Francis Schonken (talk) 06:53, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

...and more abuse:

e.g., returning to previous wording: 'WIKIPEDIA' : "This place is a lunatic asylum!"... — DO NOT ... OR ELSE! (this last one includes an ad hominem edit summary) --Francis Schonken (talk) 09:47, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets


In January 2015 the IP 2.27.112.161 made notion] of the burial of an eleventh member of the Cambridge Apostles at Ascension Parish Burial Ground. Due to the quickly changing IP-numbers I did nothing with that except getting alarmed for sockpuppets/block evasion as the IP was also interested in the Darwin-family alike the earlier sockmaster and sockpuppets/IPs. And indeed, an IP placed the info some two months later. This IP was quickly blocked for block-evasion. Around this time there was also a lot of Darwin-family related discussion on User talk:Nunh-huh, including IPs clearly evading a block. After several mild warnings that subsided but on 26 April 2015 FindingJohnCornford appeared. He started editing in a way that is inconsistend with new users (1st edit, 2nd edit). Due to the earlier interest by Nitramrekcap for the Darwin-family is got worried by this but could see nothing illegal, only remarkable coincidences. I originally missed his edits at Gwen Raverat née Darwin. But today he reverted an edit here, in fact restoring an edit proposed by a suspected sockpuppet and placed in the article by another sockpuppet. This is too much of a coincidence and I suspect FindingJohnCornford of being a sockpuppet of Nitramrekcap to evade an indefinite block. The Banner talk 11:03, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm not so sure that a strong connection can be made here. The account and IP used a noticeable amount of exclamations, which is missing with FindingJohnCornford (FJC). Nitramrekcap, 2.27.131.74, and 2.30.207.146 primarily edited around the 12-20 hour timeframe, while FJC edits primarily in the 8-12 range. I must say that I'm not very convinced by the evidence provided and don't feel comfortable issuing any blocks or warnings. I'm closing this case with no action taken.
