User talk:Licorne



I've blanked and protected this talk page. The user was blocked for making a series of serious anti-Semitic remarks, and continued to do so on his talk page after he was blocked. He has been banned for a year by the ArbCom (see the final decision). –Joke 02:27, 14 March 2006 (UTC) (revised Joke 23:22, 28 March 2006 (UTC))

ArbCom voted to block him for a year but I think his consistent anti-Semitic personal attacks (also on the talk pages of accounts below) make it unlikely he will ever be allowed back here. I have blocked him indefinitely, if anybody has an issue with that they can change it back to a year. Admins should feel perfectly fine banning any of his socks if they get active; because most of them are IPs I have not blocked them indefinitely but for reasonable amounts of time. Only a few of them (indicated below) seem to have ever been used by people other than Licorne. --Fastfission 20:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Those marked with asterisks are high-use accounts -- the others are probably proxies or nearby computers that Licorne uses, and as such should only be blocked for a limited amount of time if blocked. Any Licorne-like edit to pages like Albert Einstein, Henri Poincaré, David Hilbert, Friedwardt Winterberg, or Relativity priority dispute is probably Licorne as well; he does not seem to be attempting to disguise his edits or editing style in the slightest. --Fastfission 18:56, 18 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Edits to fr:Henri Poincaré and fr:Discuter:David Hilbert establish this as a very likely Licorne sock- or meat-puppet. Blocked indefinitely for (among others) antisemitic insults and trolling. Barraki 20:04, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
 * This series of edits seems to indicate that it was unblocked and is again used by out old friend. --Stephan Schulz 16:32, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
