Avoiding 3RR violation using IPs and main account

3RR violation using IPs

3RR violation using IPs

Avoiding semi protection

During edit war between one of the suspected IPs and other IP suspected IP filled an 3RR report on other IP, result > semi protection meaning that both IPs would have no possibility to edit main space in the Ustka article , after few hours Poeticbent came with registered account and avoided semi-protection, and made controversial edit

Stalking

  • Stalking account (see edits of 23 September 2007)
  • After the complain was laid down by established editor to protect article (Kraków) from IPs (207.102.64.214; 207.102.64.211 etc.), and after admin left this comment, Poeticbent arrives and delivers these “remarks” on opponent in the same notice board with PA.

Personal attacks

And other controversial edits. Data spectrum show that problematic behavior continues for the quite great time now. And perhaps there more IPs needing an investigation. M.K. (talk) 15:30, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Comment by Poeticbent

This is the last of a series of assaults made by a couple of notorious flame warriors, a nondescript User:M.K and a guy from Germany hiding under the pseudonym of User:Matthead, both trying to gain an upper hand in Eastern European disputes, this time, by demanding access to OTRS nonpublic data about me. I am a long-time editor whose off-Wiki identity is already publicly known as Richard Tylman.

Meanwhile, our policy on release of data derived from page logs states in point 6 that it is "reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of the Wikimedia Foundation its users" especially against those trying to discredit their Content opponents via all means available. Their recent joint assault on me through a bogus arbitration case prepared by Matthead and M.K. was of course unsuccessful. --Poeticbent talk 22:51, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

  •  Confirmed except for the 76 IP address. If you act in ways that make your IP address obvious to others, it is not a violation of the privacy policy to point that out, and in the case of logging out to avoid 3RR, confirming the name of the user is permitted. (The complaint about logging in to avoid semi-protection is rather silly and not actionable in and of itself. That's the goal of semi-protection, of course.) Acting contentiously while logged out in order to keep your registered account "clean" is considered good hand/bad hand editing and is also a policy violation. Thatcher 01:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
