 * Suspected sockpuppets:

Identical nonsense vandalism for 'cuil theory' on the Interrobang page. 24.8.149.88 attempted to blank the warning issued to 75.71.70.204 for their vandalism edit on the article. Quaeler (talk) 20:14, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Evidence submitted by Quaeler (talk)


 * Have added two users (Kdfsjlfaskjlkjladfs and Newsfan08) and one IP (65.87.245.184) also showing interest in pushing this meme; it's entirely probable that this is not a single user but rather a coordinated effort across several people. (Indeed, 65.87.245.184 is an IP from Canada.) Quaeler (talk) 02:08, 14 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Comments by accused parties    See Defending yourself against claims.

WHOIS on both addresses show that they are both located in Boulder, Colorado and are both registered to Comcast Cable Communications Holdings but on different ranges. Possibly an IP hopping cable user. Foxy Loxy Pounce! 01:15, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Comments by other users


 * Clerk, patrolling admin and checkuser comments

Seems pretty obvious to me. As such, both named accounts have been indef blocked and the IPs have been blocked for 55 hours. Tiptoety talk 01:44, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
