I checked the range. Beyond the vandal, I found two legit users, a little IP vandalism (one IP vandalizing one article with obvious vandalism which was later reverted), and one account that had been registered but never edited. I don't see any problem with this range. ] 18:53, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

*{{Checkuser|BuickCenturyDriver}}
*{{Checkuser|KnowledgeOfSelf}}

The first request is to check to see if BuickCenturyDriver might actually be right that he did not abuse AndyZ's account because his machine may have been zombified per WP:AGF. The second request is to see if KnowledgeOfSelf's computer was zombified by the attacker who used it to upload goatse.cx images.

===TomSkillingJr.===
Code '''A'''

I believe the following accounts share one or two IPs:
*{{checkuser|TomSkillingJr.}}
*{{checkuser|Chudzooka}}
*{{checkuser|Shoopshoop}}
*{{checkuser|Mikeskehan}}
*{{checkuser|Nam69}}

All of them soleley focus on discrediting ], a notable YouTube user whose article was recently salted per Williams's request through ], due to harassment from WP editors outside of Misplaced Pages. Previous to Williams's complaint, these accounts made relentless and what I would characterize as stubborn attempts at compromising well sourced articles with endless templates; lengthy talk page diatribes; and stuffed votes at ], creating a false impression of genuine debate. Their activities extend to related article ]. I cannot say for certain the puppet master(s) was(were) responsible for Williams's harassment, but their concerted actions here render that possibility likely.

My suspicions about sock puppetry were particularly raised by this: http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Wikipedia_talk:Deletion_review&oldid=125702519 Scroll to the bottom to find an abortive attempt at Williams's deletion by what look to be three SPAs that regularly appear on Talk:Cory Williams. They posted within six minutes of each other, and I can't fathom that 3 separate users made the same mistake of posting deletion arguments on a discussion page. Is there an IP to block? ] 21:34, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

This user seems intent upon causing disruption in the ] and ] page and is continuously creating sockpuppets in order to get around their community ban. The editor has also made edits from several IP addresses from various parts of the US which may suggest open proxy use. {{checkuser|64.3.192.123}} was used to "accidentally" edit on ], {{checkuser|68.15.20.63}} was used to "prove" that Sample1234 was not Dereks1x, and we know of an IP address from the Seattle Public Library system that has been used.--] 19:28, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

::I'm confused...

===Lewisskinner===
*{{checkuser|Lewisskinner}}

I suspect that the above user, with whom I have had a number of heated discussions, is the person behind the ''very'' abusive edits made by the following:

*{{checkuser|91.105.177.163}}
*{{checkuser|91.105.179.105}}
*{{checkuser|91.105.179.124}}
*{{checkuser|91.105.170.98}}

to my user- and talk- pages.

Note that the times of the anon edits coincide closely with the former's activity on Wikipeida, and that the IPs resolve to an ISP hub in Mansfield, geographically close (in telecoms terms) to the user's stated home of Sheffield.

Other inappropriate edits were made by:

*{{checkuser|143.167.168.29}} (see which referred to me; and and disruption to {{tl|Infobox UK place}}, which undid my addition of a microformat to that template, on spurious grounds)

which resolves to the University of Sheffield, his apparent place of study.

Code: '''A'''. Thank you. ] 18:16, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

:{{confirmed}} - all of those and some more. He's the only editor from ''any'' of said IPs, and the personal attacks from the IPs match. (This is using the IP as a second identity to evade loss of reputation to his main account, so is sockpuppeting.) Other username (''barely'' possible it's a separate person, but not one who's made a good edit worth saving them for): ] (moved ] to Arsehole of the World: "it's being renamed"). Other IPs used in the last month or so: 81.77.130.11 (e.g. , ), 84.67.56.5 (e.g. , , , - I'm sure we can all be very proud of him managing that last), 91.105.152.10 (e.g. , ), 91.105.184.247 (), 91.105.128.20 (). He does appear to work very hard at editing stuff and seem to enjoy working on Misplaced Pages, but I hope he'll have a good think and be a bit better behaved about it in future - ] 22:34, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Requests for IP check

This page lists requests to identify and block the IP addresses behind attack and vandal accounts that were previously listed at Requests for checkuser/IP check. After the account has been reported as blocked or declined by the checkusers, the report is moved here for seven days (most recent sections at the bottom), after which it is deleted. Because there is no attempt to establish a relationship with a puppetmaster account, no separate archive is kept, other than the page history.

Clerks: when clearing this page, please make note of the names of the sections you are deleting in the edit summary.
