Kingjeff





 * Code letter: F

In response to a WP:PAIN request I issued a 48 hour block on Deathrocker for personal attacks. Shortly afterward Kingjeff posted on my user page to request a review of the Deathrocker block. In the second post Kingjeff appeared to refer to Deathrocker's edits as his own: Panarjedde was following my every edit one day... I challenged Kingjeff as a sockpuppet and Kingjeff invited me to request a checkuser to clear his name. Durov a Charge! 04:00, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Kingjeff nominated an article for the WP:FAID football article improvement drive a couple of weeks ago and got upset when it was taken off the list, according to the AID rules, after nobody else voted for it. He put it back on and it immediately attracted a vote from, a user whose only previous contribution had been to vote on another poll the same way that Kingjeff had, five minutes after Kingjeff had cast his vote. As I write, more than half of Hargreavesfan's contributions have been votes.

Since then, several new people have shown up on the FAID, and it's heading towards the point where it will become a farce. A suspiciously high number of these appear to be Bayern Munich supporters from the USA and Canada, which fits with Interiot's tool's suggestion that Kingjeff is based in the Americas, assuming a normal work/school day. So far we have:


 * and as above
 * has never edited a football article but has suddenly decided to vote on four
 * has never edited a football article and spends as much time voting as editing anything. Has an edit history very similar to TwilaStar's.
 * ditto
 * new user, first edit was to Football AID
 * new user, first edit was on the football AID

Please could you check these out to give us an idea of which, if any are sockpuppets? Thanks, CTOAGN (talk) 10:12, 7 February 2006 (UTC)


 * User:Hargreavesfan is a definite sockpuppet of User:Kingjeff. Kingjeff is in Canada, and User:Kaiser23 is on the same ISP, but they appear to have never used the same IP, and thus this is insufficient to prove sockpuppetry.


 * It appears that User:Afrosheen, User:TwilaStar, User:SpandX, User:Caponer, User:Skurrkrow, User:Jhohenzollern and others are all the same user.


 * User:Jack o lantern is unlikely to be either, since the IP is outside the US. —Matthew Brown (T:C) 04:38, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for doing this, but please could you list all of the sockpuppets linked to Jhollernzollern? We'll need to know who they are so we can discount votes from any of them. CTOAGN (talk) 15:07, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
