 * Suspected sockpuppets:


 * Evidence submitted by NJGW (talk)
 * Arisedrew was indef blocked for impersonating an admin... Banana254 is performing actions which appear to impersonate an admin.
 * Arisedrew has called me a "wanabe mod." Banan254 has accused me of impersonating an admin.
 * Their user pages are identical.
 * They both have a problem with race issues.
 * IP 76.181.47.198 performed the exact same edit as Banan254 on Race and crime.[
 * As for Cmchir, this is might not be related, but Arisedrew comes out of nowhere (no connection I found, and Cmchir's account was only 4 days old) to impersonate an admin and "grant" Cmchir's unblock request. Arisedrew might have just been wikistalking someone or involved with someone somehow, but this is all in the same period as Banan254's creation and is the reason for Arisedrew's block.

 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Previously confirmed and recently active socks:


 * Evidence submitted by NJGW (talk)

Arisedrew blocked for continued socking and disruption, and is confirmed to have operated a disruptive sock farm (see recent socks above). Barnstarr began editing with personal attacks against me (as well as creating a--now deleted--attack page against other editors) despite being a new editor.
 * Banana254's final edit was to call me a "vandal"
 * Barnstarr also calls my edits vandalism.
 * There is significant cross posting by Barnstarr, Banana254, and the 3 IPs listed above, on the talk pages of the 3 IPs listed above.

This CU is to see if there are other Arisedrew socks which the first round of CU may have missed.

Based on the previously identified sockpuppets, Barnstarr would be ❌ to Arisedrew. IP evidence suggests it could be Sleepydre, though. In any case, no other socks were found. Dominic·t 08:21, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Looks ducky, and everyone's blocked., want the tags on these cleaned up? GeneralNotability (talk) 00:15, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
