- Evidence
- All three are devoted towards the introduction of near identical unreferenced material in David Suzuki.
- Since 6 January 2008, Overeditor's edits have been focussed exclusively on David Suzuki. Sockpuppet99 and Homeboy99 are single purpose accounts with histories stretching back to 10 January and 12 January respectively.
- Overeditor and Homeboy99 have used the word 'sensor' in place of 'censor' in edit summaries [1][2]] and on the talk page.
- All three have accused other users of using or being sockpuppets [3][4][5].
- Note: Since filing this report a new user, Backtalk, has replicated the edits of Overeditor, Homeboy99 and Sockpuppet99 as a first edit.[6] The word 'sensor' is used in the edit summary. I've added the user as a suspected sockpuppet. Victoriagirl (talk) 19:36, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments
- Do you think they are Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of Arthur Ellis? I noticed they keep re-inserting the same thing that User:Vividfan did, and appeared as User:Vividfan was indef blocked. maclean 18:36, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Conclusions
Pretty convincing. All blocked indef and tagged as Arthur Ellis socks. Sockpuppet99 already had an indef name block. — Rlevse • Talk • 19:50, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
