- User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
This series of New Zealand DSL IPs first appeared when WLU was at 3RR in 14 hrs with a version other than his own up, and having filed a frivolous 3RR report. The IP made the fourth revert at 25 hrs 33 min. The IPs have commented twice since, both support WLU broadly. (eg "...everything WLU has said is absolutely right and that everything Bitterrey has said is absolutely wrong."). One of the suspected identities for WLU blogged about his flight down to New Zealand, which would have been during two days when WLU's editing was particularly light. He might still be down there.

- A sidenote: Before the two IP comments on the talk page, WLU claimed that he wouldn't edit the talk page anymore. Blocks were being discussed at AN/I. BitterGrey (talk) 14:33, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

For the record I didn't bother responding to this because by the time I got here, Tiptoety had already declined the CU so there seemed to be no reason to engage. Since every interaction between Bittergrey and myself to this point ends up in pointless, lengthy acrimony, I decided to take Rich Valentine's advice and disengaged. NativeForeigner's comment is a single person's opinion that is not definitive - there is no way to prove or disprove the truth of this allegation. I didn't sockpuppet, but whether anyone believes me essentially comes down to whether they want to or not. I can comment, I can note the overlap between my editing times and the anon's (April 2nd, 2012 - me 18:40, anon 18:59, me 19:52; April 6th, 2012 - me 17:24, anon 18:08, anon 19:42, me 19:59), but ultimately there's no way to prove it either way. So for what it's worth, the NZ anon account isn't me, sockpuppeting is ultimately self-defeating and should in this case be unnecessary since the sources are clear. But the evidence can't vindicate me, any more than it can prove I did sockpuppet. WLU (t) (c) Misplaced Pages's rules:/complex 23:52, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

- Declined - Per the m:Privacy policy, we do not publicly link IP addresses to named accounts. This will have to be handled via the "usual means." Tiptoety 06:07, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
- Clerk note: Definitely were socks. They are editing from a /24. If we need a rangeblock on this later, the range is 203.118.187.0/24 NativeForeigner 03:09, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
