- Evidence
- I've realized there is a pattern in anon's behaviour. Anon from Scandinavia is editing just two articles: Bosnian mujahideen and Alija Izetbegovic. Osli73 also edits those two articles very often (just take a look at his contribution Osli73 (talk · contribs)), but obviously he has changed his strategy. He started to edit those articles anonymously, with the great help of User:Philip_Baird_Shearer. You can see here how Osli73 is asking Phillip to protect articles he wants: Alija Izetbegovic, Mujahideen. Interestingly Phillip protected twice Bosnian mujahideen. First time, he protected anon's version for a month [1], saying he is just protecting the current version [2]. However second time he didn't protect the current version, first he reverted to anon's version [3] and then protected the page [4]. According to user's block log he had been blocked once because of sockpuppeteering, and I think there is a reasonable doubt to start this case. I also intend to start Incident case because of Phillip's behaviour, but for now let's resolove this. Kruško Mortale (talk) 15:19, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Evidence (1): Here is the evidence that the anon is Osli73, he forgot to sign out here, so he left his trace: [5]. Kruško Mortale (talk) 17:56, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Evidence (2): Alija Izetbegović article, Revision as of 21:17, 26 November 2008 by 79.102.201.128. Kruško Mortale (talk) 13:32, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Evidence (3): Mujahideen -> 79.102.201.128
- Evidence (4): Alija Izetbegović -> Erikarver
- Comments
- The page protection issue is not directly relevant to this inquiry, but if anyone is interested to know more, then see Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive492#Bosnian mujahideen for an explanation of why "... he didn't protect the current version, first he reverted to anon's version ..."-- PBS (talk) 12:01, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
