Suspected sockpuppets


Goodoldeboy has already been blocked as a sock but doesn't seem to have been reported here so is only included for the record. Comment on P&W's talk page "It should be noted that it appeared you went through some lengths to attempt to avoid detection" probably should also be included for the record. For this reason I am including Liangshan Yi who has already been checked but who has broken a silence of some months to revert removal of a tendentious P&W edit here: . Scoobydunk appears to be a brand new editor whose very first edit was to launch into an article WLRoss (an editor with whom P&W has been feuding for a few years) had been editing; with a suspiciously precocious grasp of WP jargon in the edit summaries and .

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments
  • no Declined - While I agree that Scoobydunk (talk · contribs) does have a solid grasp on Wiki jargon, I do not see much else that would suggest they are a sock of Phoenix and Winslow (talk · contribs). Just because Scoobydunk edited the talk page of an editor who P&W did not get along with does not really justify running a checkuser. Additionally, a CheckUser has already commented on the connection between P&W and Liangshan Yi saying the connection was  Unlikely. Lastly, Liangshan Yi did not show up in my most recent checkuser of P&W. Tiptoety 04:53, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
