Suspected sockpuppets
Evidence submitted by Alexikoua

Though Sulmues expressed a desire to quit wikipedia and prior to his block on December 4th was not particularly active, beginning 1-2 December, he underwent a transformation to an extremely active user that showed interests in articles that he was never previously interested but that Sarandioti very much was. My guess is that the real Sulmues was contacted off-wiki by Sarandioti, who convinced him to give him his password so that he could avoid detetection, since all his previous socks were detected and blocked:

]

Sarandioti's last confirmed sock account was Muzakaj. While account Sulmues took a wiki break on Dec. 5-28 ]), during this period (Dec. 5-15) Muzakaj was very active.

Additional comfirmed sock account of Sarandioti are listed here: ], while his most active sock accounts were User:AlarichusUser:Muzakaj User:Kreshnik25.

  • Both userpages Sarantioti/Sulmues like Nietsche's anarchists quotes :

  • An obsession with Jakup Veseli and inserting him in the notable people section at Margariti.

SU:]]] SA:]]

  • Sulmues was advocating why a number of Albanian accounts, his sockmaster account included, were banned in the past:

] ] ]

  • He was also obssesed with the -notable peoples- section in Gjirokaster and also questioned the ethnicity of the Greek mentioned in the same section:

SU:] SA:]

  • Same situation in Korca, also he considered specific Greek personalities as not enough notable:

SU:] MUZ:] ]

  • Ironic, offending comments against the same users:

  • Both accounts considered article Cham Albanian of Top importance in the importance scale making the same scale adjustment:

  • Use of capitals to emphasize specific words:

A new guise

This times, Sarandioti followed a more clever wp:duck strategy, carefully hiding specific points of his personality after studying the two past spi investigations against him ].

  • For example he coninued to edit in athletics (like Sulmues' pre-December contribution), however day by day this interest faded and now he isn't interested in athletics any more (at least in his last 1,000 edits).
  • On early December he insisted on posting his contribution link on top of his userpage, like saying 'look at me I'm not a sock']].
  • A Teddy bear took the place of Satan & infant A. Hitler in his userpage.Alexikoua (talk) 23:52, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
Comments by accused parties

This is an outrageous accusation, which I of course reject, as I have done with other bad-faith accusations received from the Greek editors: the first one being this (User_talk:Moreschi#Sulmues.3DGuildenrich). It's unbeleivable what kind of accusations these people (Athenean and Alexikoua) are able to file. The fact that I share the same interests with these users (Albanian related) doesn't link me to either Sarandioti or Guildenrich. sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 00:15, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
