Guy Foxx is a throwaway disruptive sock registered on 7 August and matches with this SPI. You should compare these two diffs: Srijanx22 (talk)  12:33, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

What do you think about the SPI? This sock was created to evade CU detection of exactly 90 days and he is absolutely WP:NOTHERE. His justification for the edit holds no water since he is merely misrepresenting constructive edits as vandalism in violation of WP:NOTVAND. I think this should be enough per WP:BEANS. Srijanx22 (talk) 13:23, 30 August 2020 (UTC)


 * When you said "and then found another vandalism" and intentionally didn't link to that "vandalism" it is still clear that you are referring to this constructive edit which removed edits of your earlier sockpuppet. That is a violation of WP:NOTVAND and you are clearly deceiving.
 * Earlier SPI discovered a sock farm related to this user. It is well possible that he is still abusing more than 1 account. It looks that one of the sock of this sockfarm was active on Wikiquote until 5 July. Is it possible to get technical details from there? Srijanx22 (talk) 16:13, 30 August 2020 (UTC)


 * You forgot to point out that you tried to modify my comments. This adds more to the list of your deceptions. Now instead of adding further distraction, can address your suspected sockpuppetry? I don't expect though because you pass the duck test. Srijanx22 (talk)

I am not anyone's sock puppet nor are my edits disruptive. Chavhanke has stoked a major controversy and his case was in the Indian Supreme court for Hate speech. I have only followed the steps explained at Vandalism which says "Revert the vandalism by viewing the page's history and selecting the most recent version of the page prior to the vandalism."Follwing the instructions, I reverted the article to the revision by last unvandalized version by a registered editor and then found another vandalism and restored the removed reference. I also restored a constructive edit  by a registered editor and proceeded to warn the 2 vandals  and. Srijanxx seems to be upset with me as I have called out his censorship here Instead of engaging on the talk page he has been badgering me  and now filed this fake accusation. --Guy Foxx (talk) 13:11, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

 * How are these 2 edits   constructive edits ? I would be very surprised if Admin thinks that they are constructive, when clearly they are not. Srijan calling these vandalism edits as constructive, proves my point that this report is clearly a bad faith accusation. Guy Foxx (talk) 14:00, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Srijanx2 You are cannot change your comment like this after I have already replied and called you out on it. Please make a new comment instead of changing your comment. --Guy Foxx (talk) 16:24, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * and Please take a look and advice Srijanx2 to stop changing his comment again  and again  after it has been replied to. WP:TALK is clear on this. His conduct here is getting into the bizarre realms now. Guy Foxx (talk) 16:49, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I note that Srijanx22 has changed his older comments yet again, violating WP:TALK.Guy Foxx (talk) 17:08, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Dreamy Jazz, we have here a pot calling the kettle black. I only made 1 revert on this report page which was to restore Srijanx22's old comments, and warn him after they were sneakily modified. Srijanx22 has since than changed his comments thrice as my links show. --Guy Foxx (talk) 00:25, 31 August 2020 (UTC)


 * I have already addressed in my first comment on this page, whatever there was to address . I don't know why Srijanx22 thinks removing couple of vandalism edits  and restoring a couple of valid edits   into the article Suresh Chavhanke makes me a sock puppet. The sequence of Srijanx22's comments on the article talk, my user talk and now here, is enough to make it clear to anyone that Srijanx22 is using this bad faith report to get back at me after getting called out for censorship  and edit warring  on a different article Swami Karpatri.
 * I will quote Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/SPI/Guidance that says "If an accusation on this page is "bad faith" (an editor making a fake case for an "attack" or to prevent their own editing being examined) then you may wish to say so briefly, but cases on this page will be decided based upon evidence of misuse of accounts only. You do not have to defend yourself against other claims, however bad, or engage in discussion about them. You may wish to note that the claim is not relevant to sock puppetry."

 * - Unfortunately, everything is, so this will have to be decided on the basis of behaviour. Salvio 13:10, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , english wikiquote checkuser data seems to be only accessible by stewards as I see no local checkusers for the english wikiquote on the list at meta (see CheckUser policy).
 * To everyone: please try to keep any rewrites of comments to a minimum after others have responded to them. If you wish to overhaul a comment after responses have been done, I suggest that tags are used. Also, don't modify other users comments. If they change their comment, the original comment is still visible in the edit history. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 22:10, 30 August 2020 (UTC)


 * I've had some time to think about this and on further investigation and evidence from another user, have concluded that Guy Foxx is a sockpuppet. I have tagged them as suspected and blocked indef. Close. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 22:05, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Obviously not a new user, created after the last sock was blocked and is leaving same frivolous warnings like he did with his last sock. Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 14:16, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Pratap Pandit who has been blocked here as a sock was an active user and a critic on Wikiquote.

A 10 days old account Auxentios has now started removing links to "Wikiquote" from Wikipedia, mainly from the same articles which were edited by socks of this SPI. Srijanx22 (talk) 13:14, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
