Hi, Thatcher.<br>
Here're two possible sockpuppets of {{checkuser|PaxEquilibrium}}.<br>
I've never had problems with these accounts, by few things drew my attention, that makes me believe that they might be his sockpuppets:<br>
- interest area (Montenegro, History of Montenegro)<br>
- very short edit period - this is the feature of SPA's and sleeper accounts<br>
- because of limitation of checkuser tools, it'd good to see if they are sleepers<br>
- these accounts had communication with PaxEquilibrium (and Pax with them)
*{{checkuser|Petar Montenegrin}}
6 edits, 4 on 30 June 2008 (2 times on the talkpage of PaxEquilibrium and ) and 2 on 10 July 2008
Here he refers to Pax's opponent and
In fact, Petar Montenegrin appears here as the opponent to Pax (''Pax Equilibrium uporno širi prosrpsku propagandu'', "Pax persistently spreads pro-Serbian propaganda"), as the one that disagrees with Pax. Was that done with the purpose of confusing the others? Out of 6 edits, he already found Pax?
*{{checkuser|Perjanik}}
Even here. Pax talks with him on his talkpage (puppetmasters often do that: talk between puppet and master). Here appears favourite Pax's idea, "<nowiki>fully incorporated into a ], the newly acquired ]n land, then called Zeta" (saying for Montenegro as "Serbian land")"</nowiki>.<br>
I don't want to etiquette these two accounts, I just want to remove any suspicion. Thanks for the attention, ] (]) 14:18, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
*{{checkuser|I am Mario}}
...could be his puppet too. Pax was obssessed with one shaky reinterpretation of historical source ], which he used to conquer the articles like ]. It appeared that Pax puppets were talking to each other, in this case Pax said "wellcome" to ] 45 minutes after his 1st appearance. An anon contributing (] asked him in the talk page: are you Mario?) to DAI article transformed to ]. Pax did distinguish himself from this anon , in the same way as he did it elsewhere too, like here , as you can see he criticized his own sock edits. While his socks were wild and extreme POV pushers, Pax as master had image of an objective contributor. This account was created in May, there's possibility that Pax created it to support his claims in Pagania article, where he was opposing consensus reached by other users involved, as well as prolong an earlier anon actions in ]. See ]. Can you check ] please. ] (]) 07:32, 2 September 2008 (UTC)


who was he seriously? <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 08:54, 2 November 2021 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
Excuse me if I bother you, but I do believe this is Pax, ]'s, ]'s and ]'s edit dates are overlapping: 24/25 August, 1 Sept, 6 Sept. I'd really apreciate if you check this user, I'm not ghost hunter, just don't want to waste my time with some octopus. Thanks. ] (]) 01:15, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

refers. What is FT2 up to now. I am checking out NS's edits but they seem great to me, and an editor we should definitely try to keep. ] has a massive socklist, but these seem to be harmless (I am checking out now). What is the history on that one, please? ] (]) 18:22, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

OK I see also refers. Who cares. He is doing good work. ] (]) 18:24, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

*I looked very briefly at the checkuser evidence on Nocturnalsleeper and found that he has been using multiple accounts, and using them to edit the same articles. He is technically unrelated to Burrburr (but maybe he just changed ISPs) but the behavior pattern is the same; lots of socks making apparently good edits. Now that someone has objected to Nocturnalsleeper and we have discovered the socks, we can't really pretend nothing is happening. As long as he has not been making disruptive or bad faith edits, I would support allowing him to continue to edit from a single account (and blocking all the others). Perhaps you could talk to him? But I can not support allowing him to use multiple overlapping accounts on the same articles, even if the content of the edits is good. ] 18:46, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
** OK that's very sound. I wil try. I hate socks, as you know, but I also like good editors. Love them. Thanks. ] (]) 18:58, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
** On well the guy clearly is a sockpuppet. And a plagiarist. ] (])
***I haven't looked into the matter other than to note the account has been inactive for 30+ months. If it ever returns to active editing, I would be willing to look into the matter. ] 22:43, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
****By the way, on checking my notes I find that Burrburr had used two different ISPs, and Nocturnalsleeper is a match for one of them, so it is very likely that Nocturnalsleeper is in fact Burrburr. ] 00:43, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
***** Reply at the Review and my talk. Also, sorry but I can't resist quoting . You have just equated the Hong Kong University Skeptics Club with an organization that supports pederasty. ] (]) 17:56, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

== GG - new SSP case ==

Hi Thatcher, I'm normally a bit sceptical about the GG false alarms we've had, but a small group of users has turned up that I would be most grateful if you could have a close look at whenever you have a few minutes. See ]. Many thanks in advance, ] (]) 00:04, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

== Re: Allegations ==

No problem. I was actually involved in trying to keep things calm, and apparently thats out of style now.--] (])

== Checkuser request ==

Hi, I was wondering if you could do a check on {{checkuser|Thewikiqediarollbacker}}, as he is a new user, yet knows about rollback and arbcom, as you can see from his edits(I didn't bother linking the diffs as he only has 4. I know this isn't much evidence, but things just don't line up. Thank you for your time.— ''']]<sup> ]</sup> /<sub>]</sub>''' 07:39, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
:Please tell me you didn't forget about this, or did I do something wrong?— ''']]<sup> ]</sup> /<sub>]</sub>''' 11:15, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
::I've been very busy lately (see the note above). But there is definitely some funny business going on here. See ]. ] 11:20, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

== Really going now ==

Nothing to do with that ''particular'' incident, just the whole thing. Thanks - I believe you were one of the good ones, but it is all too much. Scrambling password now. ] (]) 20:57, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
:Sorry to see you go. Interesting aftermath. ] 03:09, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

== Petition ==

Hi Thatcher, I intend to petition Arbcom re Giano's civility parole, which appears to be unworkable in practice, ill thought out in theory, and ultimately a license for unnecessary wiki-drama that aren't any good for the project. I'm not sure this has been done before - I don't think the format of RFC is appropriate as this will be a petition of support, not a drama inducing dust up regarding Giano in general. Unless you think otherwise, I'll put it at ] - although perhaps I should put it on a subpage connected to the case. Any thoughts? --] (]) 09:56, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
:I don't really have any thoughts or recommendations. I'm not sure you can avoid drama, though, as there are bound to be people who oppose. The problem is that while special civility enforcement against this person is not working out, neither is it appropriate for editors to be calling each other idiots and making deliberately cutting and insulting remarks. ] 10:57, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

== Email ==

You can disregard my email. I ended up talking to smoddy. Thanks! ] (]) 21:11, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

== Checkuser ==

Please see my question at ]. Thank you. ] (]) 01:45, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

== ] ==
Even if the sweep came back negative, can you comment on whether the two named accounts are indeed the same person?] (]) 02:49, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
*They are technically unrelated to each other as well. ] 10:45, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

==]==

Oh geez. Why is it whenever I approve someone for rollback it seems to go wrong? (rolls eyes) ] ] 11:36, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
:No problem, just be sure to ask me before you ever get engaged :) ] 11:47, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
::I had been watching this users edits since he MfD'ed the wikipedia sandbox. Although I was surprised to see him after only one month of editing at . And he was soon followed by after only his third day. How do I ask that the !vote be discounted without my obvious bias? ''']'''] 13:08, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
