Group A
 * - banned, probably stale

Group B
 * - banned, probably stale
 * - already blocked by me, but useful for comparison


 * Code Letter - B Requests for arbitration/Mudaliar-Venki123


 * Evidence:
 * Suspected sock puppets/Venki123
 * Suspected sock puppets/Youonlylivetwice
 * Suspected sock puppets/Youonlylivetwice (2nd)


 * Discussion:

It appears to me that both Venki123 and Mudaliar are using socks to continue edit warring, and to go after each other. See also Suspected sock puppets/Youonlylivetwice and Suspected sock puppets/Youonlylivetwice (2nd).

I am especially keen to know if any of these parties are using open proxies. Jehochman Talk 23:29, 5 April 2008 (UTC)


 * that Youonlylivetwice is also . Youonlylivetwice edits from a business in city A.  Jillpaans edits from that business and from a confirmed open proxy.  Kokarako Gumango edits from a residence in the same city and from a (different) probable open proxy.


 * Saedirof and Redlance are ❌; however Saedirof continues to display an unusually close relationship to, which is relevant because they are all editing Devadasi. MarkPC got unblocked last time by appealing to Arbcom, I would ask Jpgordon to do a recheck on MarkPC and Saedirof and see if the explanation he got last time still holds water. Thatcher 02:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I have blocked and  because both have an editing style indistinguishable from, who is banned. I have also asked Jpgordon to have a look at Saedirof-MarkPC. Jehochman Talk 04:03, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Behavior should talk for itself here; it was a marginal call on my part. --jpgordon&#8711;&#8710;&#8711;&#8710; 13:57, 8 April 2008 (UTC)


 * One more: . I blocked this one as an obvious sock, due to editing style, but they now claim it is a misidentification.  Could you please help confirm (or disprove) this? Jehochman Talk 17:19, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Equinox equations is using the same probable proxy as Kokarako Gumango. Harsha varadhan is .  Could be a work/home situation with Redlance if the timing is right and there are no overlaps, but it is hard to say more at this time. Thatcher 11:26, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Venki123



 * Code letter: B

was banned by arbitration committee for 1 year for vandalising and abusing other editors in Mudaliar and Sengunthar articles.

He is again edit-warring on the same articles using the id,  and other ids listed above to create the illusion of multiple users and to push his POV. Check contributions as he is just warring on those two articles.

Check, , , where he is just deleting a lot of academic references. Moreover he was reverted by many admins and was finally blocked for edit-warring cosntantly.

just mimics the same edits as who inturn mimics the edits of banned user,  and totally vandalises the articles. Check:, ,.

once again removes academic references and vandalises the article. Check ,

All the sock puppets and related ips must be blocked to uphold the arbitration decision. Thanks Rattler61 03:39, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
 * ❌ to each other. No IP data to compare to Venki123. Never checked Saravanan99 since you provided no evidence linking this to the other accounts. And please don't tell us how or when to block, I assure you we know what we're doing. --Deskana (talk) 01:32, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

 * (banned user:socket puppet of Venki123)


 * Code letter: B

was banned by arbitration committee for 1 year for vandalising and abusing other editors in Mudaliar and Sengunthar articles. This week was also found to be a sock puppet of  and was banned by admin.

He is also editing the same articles using the id to create the illusion of multiple users and push his POV. It is obvious from his contributions that he is a sock puppet of Venki123/ Sriramwins. Now he has reappeared as and is doing a check user on me. This id has absolutely no contributions whatsoever and was just created to do a check user on me. is not an absolute newbie as he says because a real newbie would atleast have a few legitimate contributions. Moreover why is so concerned   if   did a checkuser on / (which led to  getting banned)? This is definitely a sock puppet of / by duck test. Please test the ids and ips against both and  as  was the more recent block. All the sock puppets and related ips must be banned to uphold the arbitration decision.

 * Code letter: B

was banned by arbitration committee for 1 year for vandalising and abusing other editors in Mudaliar and Sengunthar articles. Now (from the contributions it is very obvious) and others seem to be a sock puppet of banned user  and are editing the same articles with exactly the same POV.Xylophonic 04:48, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

User:Weldingveerasamy is clearly a very recent user who is taking part in the current arbitration . He clearly seems to be a sock puppet of who is playing both sides to create confusion

 * Code letter: C

Repeated vandalism of Mudaliar and Sengunthar articles over the past few months. I furnish some of the vandalised diffs beside the above ips/users. has been constantly deleting and trashing heavily referenced sections. I suggest a block on the ips and this user. Could you check and say if any of the users are socket puppets of or if any of the ips are related to ? Thanks. Mudaliar 14:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I have removed the IP addresses because the privacy policy prevents checkusers from commenting on them. PTO 14:16, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The diffs associated with those addresses appear to contribute to the requesting user's case, so I'll replace those here:       . –  Luna Santin  (talk) 18:17, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

. I fail to see how any of this implicates Venki. It sounds like you need dispute resolution. Dmcdevit·t 17:20, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
