 * No, it needs to be checked if this IP address is the IP address of some other user on the English Wikipedia. I am a checkuser on some other place, and I know that can be done.  Alex discussion ★ 18:12, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
 * You can change the status to CUrequest but whilst obviously up to the CU (and clerks to endorse or decline) unless there is evidence of abusive sockpuppetry (which I can't see) it sounds a bit too much like fishing. The password reset request can be explained because you were one of the two users to revert and warn them, whilst a strange thing for a vandal to do certainly possible.
