– This SPI case is open.

Suspected sockpuppets

During the 2014 gun control arbcom, North8000 was found, among other things, to edit while logged, place undue weight on inappropriate material, and to fail to get the point. (diffs to follow) During a 2012 ANI discussion about North8000's behavior it was shown that he had a near obsession with describing "political correctness" as a pejorative. (diffs to follow)

  • The Faceless Enemy account was created on 23 January 2010.
  • The acount was fairly active through July 2010, and then its activity tapered off.
    • 67 edits in 2011;
    • 69 edits in 2012 (none in Nov/Dec);
    • 8 edits in 2013 (editing in only 5 of 7 months);
    • 2 edits in 2014.
  • However, Faceless Enemy has already made 165 edits since January 1. (scroll down to "Month counts")

Faceless Enemy has made a few edits to the Gun show loophole article, including:

  • 28 January 2015 Added the article to the categories American political neologisms and Dysphemisms.
  • 28 January 2015 Added the word "political" to the lead sentence.

And 44 edits to the Gun show loophole talk page since January 25 (the past 7 days), including:

From gun control ArbCom:

From ANI/North8000 discussion:

18 September 2009 (in article subsection headed "In right-wing rhetoric") The most common meaning here is a perjorative term to refer to excessive deference to particular political sensibilities at the expense of other considerations.
00:07, 20 March 2010 (UTC) ... With the closest (albeit imperfect) thing to that in the WP article being: "a pejorative term to refer to excessive deference to particular sensibilities at the expense of other considerations" ...
16:31, 23 January 2011 I think that it is clearly a pejorative term referring to particular forms of behavior. Probably one of the few places in the article that actually says it is "The most common usage here is as a pejorative term to refer to excessive deference to particular sensibilities at the expense of other considerations." ...
20:40, 12 April 2011 Created a new section headed "POV?" with this comment: Addressing the edit summary with the recently placed POV tag, "Political Correctness" is a pejorative term, and the characterization of certain behaviors as such....
02:01, 23 August 2011 No strong opinion on the topic at hand, but to repeat one structural note, PC is is essentially an pejorative, promulgated term which posits that, in the discussed cases, the discussed otherwise-acceptable behaviors are, in this case, bad because they taken to an excessive degree....
