This page contains the entire history of my previous talk page.

User Osli73 http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Osli73 has a history of willfully violating probations including the use of sockpuppets on articles related to the former Yugoslavia. |
|
|
|
|
|
One can see at the bottom of this arbitration webpage that he has been blocked repeatedly for willfully violating sanctions placed against his edit warring and sockpuppetry: http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Requests_for_arbitration/Kosovo#Involved_parties |

On March 19, 2008, Osli73 received the following probation from administrator Thatcher explicitly forbidding Osli73 from more than one revert per week on the Bosnian Mujahideen and Mujahideen article http://en.wikipedia.org/Bosnian_Mujahadin , http://en.wikipedia.org/Mujahideen |
|
|
|
|
|
::''Your topic ban is lifted and replaced with a revert parole. You may edit Bosnian mujahideen and Mujahideen but for one month (from 17 March) you are limited to one revert per article per week. Obvious vandalism is excepted from the revert limit, but you should take care in distinguishing true vandalism from content disputes. You are permitted to revert the edits of banned users such as Grandy Grandy/The Dragon of Bosnia but you should be extremely careful in doing so, because if it turns out the editor you are reverting is not a sockpuppet of the banned user you will have violated the revert limit. It would be better to report suspected sockpuppets to WP:AE or WP:RFCU. Thatcher 14:05, 19 March 2008 (UTC)'' |

see user Osli73 talk page for the above probation notice: http://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:Osli73 |
|
|
|
|
|
Despite the explicit probation against more than one revert per week on the Bosnian Mujahideen and Mujahideen articles, user Osli73 has again engaged in edit warring, reverting the Bosnian mujahideen and Mujahideen articles repeatedly, for example Osli made the following 8 reverts to the Bosnian Mujahideen and Mujahideen articles from April 8 to April 14: |

From his statements, Osli73 has shown that he fully understands the restrictions placed upon him. From his actions, he has shown that he is not willing to abide by those restrictions. |
|
|
|
|
|
I am notifying the administrators that have sanctioned Osli73 in the past as well as notifying Osli73 of this posting. Especially with articles involving the former Yugoslavia, it is imperative that users respect the limits placed upon their editing. If the more vitriolic editors involved in former Yugoslavia articles see that Osli73 is not held accountable for his his transgressions, then there is greater likelihood of out-of-control edit warring as there has been in the past.

Hi Thatcher. I notice that ] has been indefinitely blocked as a sockpuppet of ]. I'd be interested to see the evidence that supports this. In my experience, Willirennen has been nothing but a valauble contributor to the encyclopedia (I realise that the two aren't mutually exclusive). I note that there is also a ] (i.e. with a capital 'R'), which was created by ] who seems to be mostly involved in spamming about "Z cars": Is this possibly a case of mistaken identity? ] (]) 23:24, 17 April 2008 (UTC) |

*See ]. Knock-Off Nigel and Willirennen are definitely sharing IP addresses and computers with the other names listed there are confirmed. Whether the accounts should all be blocked, or whether one (main) account should be left unblocked with a warning, is up to the admin who did the blocking. You should ask AGK, or ask for a block review at ]. ] 14:47, 18 April 2008 (UTC) |

:Ahh. I figured that's what it was. When you block for sockpuppetry based on checkuser, whether there was or wasn't a formal request for it, can you at least say that? It's useful to know in reviewing unblock requests. ] (]) 14:37, 18 April 2008 (UTC) |

The comment from Prodego was: "My view is: I don't think it is necessary, and will not do it myself. But I have no problems if you do. Prodego talk 20:02, 2 April 2008 (UTC)" That is hardly an endorsement of the RFD. That is, "Sure, do it if you want, since you're entitled to try anything." That's different than, "My close was bunk." Please. <span style="font-variant:small-caps"><font color="#800080">] § ]/]</font></span> 16:26, 22 April 2008 (UTC) |
