Latest sock disruption

Apparently in addition to DavidYork71 (talk · contribs), we now have YesOn8 (talk · contribs) using socks to disrupt this article:

Some of the more recent socks used to revert to the same material in this article. More info here, here, here, and here. Cirt (talk) 05:15, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

This is an ongoing issue. If anybody else makes that same edit to this article, it is safe to assume that they are also either a sockpuppet or meatpuppet, and should be blocked. So if anyone is reading this and considering changing the article in that same way, then don't. You will be held accountable. Firestorm 05:20, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
Agree with this comment by Firestorm (talk · contribs). I am adding some more socks that have disrupted this article to the above list. Cirt (talk) 05:23, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Apparently at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/YesOn8/Archive, users investigating YesOn8 (talk · contribs) also thought that YesOn8 was itself a sock of DavidYork71 (talk · contribs). Cirt (talk) 06:12, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Added Sjbraden (talk · contribs) to above list - account was blocked by the same Checkuser that connected the YesOn8 (talk · contribs) series of socks to DavidYork71 (talk · contribs). Cirt (talk) 00:14, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

partyvan.info

partyvan.info isn't the wiki! It's a mirror for last measure! Edit it out —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.151.34 (talk) 10:08, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

This is as per secondary sources. Cirt (talk) 16:06, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Ongoing?

The old is it or isn't it ongoing question perhaps needs to be considered again unfortunately following HerrAdolf (talk · contribs)'s recent edit. I suppose we need to actually agree how we determine going forward whether the protest movement still exists or not. I'm inclined to suggest it does, a quick Google search turned up this news story which clearly refers to an individual mentioned as being a member of "a group called Anonymous that protests Church of Scientology events" but I'd have to consider it in more detail.

However, when this edit is viewed in the context of this user's other edits I become more suspicious of their motives. For example here, it does seem more appropriate to describe L. Ron Hubbard as "controversial" rather than "acclaimed". Here, I think Scientology is more widely considered to be "controversial" than "innovative" and here, "controversial" would probably be a more widely accepted description of Psychiatry: An Industry of Death than "celebrated". Adambro (talk) 10:08, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

User has now been indef-blocked as an obvious sockpuppet of DavidYork71. As far as how current Chanology is, Mew York and boston had protests on the 16th. Philadelphia has one scheduled this coming Saturday, the 23rd. Monthly protests still happen in most cities. That current enough? Firestorm 15:51, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
