Requests for IP check

  • Vandal and attack accounts may be listed here for the purpose of identifying and blocking the underlying IP address or open proxy. Requests to confirm sockpuppets of known users should be listed in the sockpuppet section above.
  • If you already know the IP address of the suspected open proxy, list it at Wikipedia:Open Proxies instead.
  • Use === Subsections ===; do not create subpages.
  • List user names using the {{checkuser|username}} template. Add new reports to the top of the section.
  • Requests may be acted on or declined according to the discretion of the checkuser admins. Responses will be noted here. Specific evidence of abuse in the form of diffs may be required so as to avoid the impression of fishing for evidence.
  • Answered requests will be moved to Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/IP check/Archive for 7 days, after which they will be deleted. No separate archive (other than the page history) will be maintained.

Very similar patterns of vandalism & use of edit summaries, and Home367's edit to Dere432's talk page also suggests they are the same person. DuncanHill (talk) 00:33, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the accounts above have already been blocked, but user creates single-purpose accounts apparently for the purpose of harassing User:Collect over a prior dispute at Talk:Joe the Plumber. Kelly hi! 17:45, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]


User talk:Wurzel-Eating Grin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search

Hi - Can someone tell me where I can appeal to have my username UNblocked?

I posted a Request For Help on User:Kelly 's talk page, but unfortunately Kelly mis-interpreted my request.

I am NOT a sock puppet. I had the previous names "BossOfCollect"/"...Colect". I was TOLD to change my name as it offended user:collect, even though no contact or debate with that user had even occurred.

As requested, I changed my name. In addition to dropping any reference to "Collect" from the new username I created, I have made an effort to link my previous username to my new username as a method of tracking history, SPECIFICALLY so I would NOT be mistaken for a sock puppet.

Lastly, without even being asked, I posted on my Talk page, User:Collect's and Kelly's (Collect's friend), an APOLOGY & explanation, and that I would not be using any such variation of Collect, nor any interaction with collect whatsoever.

Despite all these efforts, my new name, which Admin requested I create, was blocked for being a sock puppet. Help!

Previous message posted:

FYI, I am TheBossOfCollect & "...Colect". It's not sock puppetry or anything else, nor am I in collusion with any one else.

I felt Collect has made himself such a persistent nuisance on JTP by preemptively deleting opposing opinions, continual edit-warring, biasness in selective rule-citing etc. that I engaged in a little mirth-making to lighten the situation up.

Collect habitually uses his familiarity with WP’s rules and careful timing to cleverly screen his continually egregious behavior from Admin sanctions that, I feel, should have occurred earlier.

I actually made heartfelt suggestions to Collect, asking that he kindly play well and objectively with other editors and maintain a better sense of fellowship, but alas, he deleted my simple suggestions and continued the edit-warring, etc.

Despite Collect’s efforts to wield Wiki’s regulations like a mace in order to cow newbies and opposing editors, I see WP admin have at last noticed Collect’s persistent behavior. They have warned and sanctioned Collect as they deem appropriate. There’s no need for TheBossOfCollect to persist in raising a red flag about User:Collect.

Funny that Collect would rather believe in a global conspiracy of complete strangers against him, rather than consider the more reasonable possibility that his persistently negative behaviors on WP have incurred the same degree of ire in many other individual editors.

There’s no offline collusion (at least that I’m aware of). It’s just a matter of one person finding persistently disagreeable behavior tiresome. I realize by allowing myself to be baited by User:Collect that I too have grown tiresome, so will voluntarily change my silly user name.

IP blocked, sock Jurk4stalyn (talk · contribs) already blocked. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 06:32, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Possible sockpuppet returning as anonymous unsigned user, previously blocked as sockpuppet here. Left no comment with a summary on the talk page of this userbox OneManOneWoman; added unsigned comment about not censored, which was not relevant to the previous userbox issue, on User:MrBell's talk page, which was the locus of previous confrontational tactics by this user. Gives impression the previously blocked user is trying to antagonize the user. -- btphelps (talk) (contribs) 23:03, 12 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Additional antagonistic and combative comments on MrBell's talk page by possibly related IP address 76.24.148.230, a Comcast IP address in Dennis Port, MA (Martha's Vineyard); prior IP address 71.243.50.204 resolves to a Verizon provider in Boston, MA. Quite possibly the same individual using different computers and/or a cell phone to obfuscate their origins. -- btphelps (talk) (contribs) 00:34, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Any sleeper socks and any OPs amongst those IPs, good sirs? -Jéské Couriano (v^_^v) 04:59, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
