Willthacheerleader18 (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)- Code letter: F.
Pastorwayne was indefinitely blocked, after about 9 months of efforts by various editors to persuade him to refrain from a variety of forms of disruptive editing, particularly his creation of masses of categories (often dozens per day). Charlesdolphharding (talk · contribs) shows an almost identical editing pattern and style, and appears to be an attempt at block evasion. Kittybrewster ☎ 13:59, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Administrator note Jpgordon has blocked this user as a sock. Since he is a checkuser, I will assume this action means Cahrlesdolphharding is confirmed as a sock (unless Jpgordon comments here otherwise). I'll mark for close later if there's nothing else. TNXMan 14:46, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
Confirmed that Charlesdolphharding (talk · contribs) is a sock, but Willthacheerleader18 (talk · contribs) is Unrelated per User talk:Jpgordon on his talkpage. Transcluded by: -- DQ (t) (e) 13:16, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Confirmed as Pastorwayne:
- Sevillewestfield (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
Confirmed as each other:
- Perryheights (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- Evangelicalunitedbrethren (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
The relation of the above two groups to each other is Inconclusive via technical evidence, but remember that is different from behavioral evidence and edit patterns. –MuZemike 00:31, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
- Category:Burials at shrines has only been edited by Estherlois (a pastorwayne sock, possibly detected by behaviour rather than checkuser) and Evangelicalunitedbrethren. I expect Perry Heights is somewhere in Ohio with internet access ... let's see what google says. Occuli (talk) 10:47, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, Perry Heights, Ohio is about 40 miles south east of Seville, Ohio and Westfield Center, Ohio - see google maps. And Pastor Wayne is a United Methodist pastor in Ohio: see eg Wayne William Scott (deleted). Occuli (talk) 10:55, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

- I'll be comparing Clover to Sevillewestfield (talk · contribs), as that's the most recent account in the checkuser daisy-chain we have for this user. Hersfold (t/a/c) 16:15, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Or not. The following accounts are Confirmed to be the same user as Evangelicalunitedbrethren (talk · contribs) / Perryheights (talk · contribs):
- Cloverleafgreen (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- Perryheightsstark (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- Leroywestfieldcenter (talk+ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · spi block · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- It is Possible that these accounts are Pastorwayne; they use the same ISP, and while they are on different subnets, those subnets are both allocated to the same city. There is, however, no overlap between those accounts (there aren't any accounts that use both subnets, that is). Hersfold (t/a/c) 16:27, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, and no comment on the IP address as per usual, but do please block if the behavioral evidence looks good. Hersfold (t/a/c) 16:30, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

[edit]- Per WP:DUCK I've blocked and tagged, but I'm adding a CU to check for sleepers, as there have been sleepers before. The main account and all its socks are stale, though, so it'll have be a check against this current account. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 13:08, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
- Oh, and the IP hasn't edited in more than ten days, so I'm considering it stale. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 13:16, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
