 * Code letter: F, G Requests for arbitration/Armenia-Azerbaijan 2

No apparent abusive sockpuppetry. Non-puppet violations of ArbCom rulings should be brought to Administrators' noticeboard/Arbitration enforcement. -- Avi (talk) 16:41, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Supporting evidence: These two editors appear to have been collaborating in a slow edit war at Hemshin peoples. Look at Cihsai's very first edit on Wikipedia: .  Both accounts have a single purpose of editing articles closely related to Hemshin.  Jehochman Talk 03:02, 30 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello, can I get another checkuser to look at this please. Both accounts have participated in an edit war at Hemshin peoples.  Using two accounts to edit the same article is sock puppetry. One account, as its very first edit stuck one of the comments of the other account, and there are more linkages if you need me to dredge up more diffs.  Thanks.

 * Clue: Avi, if you look at this list User:Jehochman/RFCU you will see that I file a lot of CU requests, and basically none of them have been rejected. If I've made a request, feel free to ask for more diffs if you don't see the point, but please don't reject me like I am some sort of clueless noob. There is a big problem at this article, and accusations of sock puppetry have been made.  There is an appearance that they could have substance.  Therefore, we need this check.

 * Jehochman, I'm sure Avi meant no disrespect. With regards to this check, could you further explain why you suspect sockpuppetry? It looks as if Cihsa is removing part of Omer182's edit. If that is the case, then I don't see where the sockpuppetry claim comes from. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 19:45, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I am also sure no disrespect was intended. The problem is not that particular sandbox edit.  That edit is showing the very close proximity of the two accounts; it shows a strongly likelyhood that they are controlled by the same person, or perhaps by close associates.  The problem is that the two accounts have been attempting to WP:OWN the article Hemshin peoples by doing tag-team reverts, a great many of them, over a length of time, and lobbying for administrative action against content opponents.  Such use of two accounts in the same conflict is forbidden.  I have presented a few diffs above, but more can be seen by viewing the article history.  Additionally, read this explanation by . This article is a really tough problem.  I need your help. Jehochman Talk 19:57, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * . Omer182 and Cihsai were on the same ISP in the same city in early August, but since then, there have been no geographic overlap between these two users. Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 22:00, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you. From appearances, they may know each other, but I am not prepared to act on those appearances alone. Jehochman Talk 22:08, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
