User:NinjaRobotPirate/Animation hoaxer

There are two different LTAs who are catalogued on this page. They have similar behavior, primarily adding hoax casting to animated children's films.

Original flavor
The animation hoaxer primarily targets upcoming children's animated films for hoax casting information, though he will sometimes target adult animation. The most common hoax is to add A-list Hollywood talent. These names are cited to existing sources in the article, but the content will fail verification. He also frequently changes the director, composer, and production company. When he adds a hoax name to a film, check the associated biographical article for edits that propagate the hoax. The user may also add to cast lists a very long, unsourced list of actors who auditioned for parts.

Geolocation: usually Vivid Wireless or Telstra in Western Australia, Australia.

Copycat
A possible copycat from the US also engages in hoax casting. Cast changes are unsourced and generally target older films that have a well-established and known cast. One actor may be substituted for another. The most common targets are Rugrats franchise films. Actor filmographies will often be vandalized to include roles in Rugrats films, though other animated franchises also appear. Actors who have died will occasionally be added to films, and the actor's biography may be vandalized to indicate that he or she is still alive. Articles about film adaptations of the The Chronicles of Narnia franchise may also be vandalized, especially with hoax crossovers between it and Rugrats. The same is true for The Swan Princess and its sequels, again with hoax crossovers. Also, hoax songs are added to soundtracks and released singles. In most cases, the composer will be changed to James Horner.

Geolocation: varies, but usually Texas or Arkansas. The ISP is always AT&T Wireless. Also note that some IP's registered to AT&T Wireless do not have precise geolocations, and instead may merely point to the geographic center of the contiguous United States in Kansas.

from a 107.77 IP potentially ties LTA vandal to at least some of these hoaxes.
