Evidence

Repeatedly changing "Middle Kingdom" to "Central Kingdom" in the article China and Names of China. Compare edits of JackyAustine: [1], [2], [3] with the edits of Peter zhou (talk · contribs) [4], [5], [6].

There are also these three previous confirmed sockpuppet cases: 1, 2, and 3.

Comments

• I would not have suspected that User:Peter zhou as a sockpuppet just on editing pattern evidence - but his or her behavioural evidence is more telling: for example, (1) User:Peter zhou routinely makes groundless claims about other users being "banned" or "sockpuppets", just as JackyAustine's sockpuppets did. (2) User:Peter zhou crowns all sources in support of his view as "renowned scholars" or "famous sinologists" - the same hyperbole practiced by JackyAustine's sockpuppets. --PalaceGuard008 (Talk) 22:10, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Conclusions

BLocked and tagged both. How did JackyAustine go this long with this many socks and SSP cases and not get an indef block? — Rlevse • Talk • 12:34, 14 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
