First we have this IP edit:, in which a claim that Rachel Corrie committed suicide is inserted into the lead of the article. Note that the article is under 1RR because of arbcom restrictions. I reverted under the IP exception to the 1RR rule. Soon thereafter we have brand new editor Bargain Bonus reverting this reversion here and additionally inserting a bunch of ranting and unsourced opinion into the article. This cannot now easily be removed due to the fact that registered accounts cannot be reverted without violating 1RR. Thus if the IP editor and Bargain Bonus are the same editor, this is an attempt at evading the arbcom sanctions. Note that Bargain Bonus(as of now) has made only four edits, all to this article. &mdash; alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 14:55, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

 * - Can't use CU on IPs generally. Looking at this, it appears he might have been editing as an IP, then registered an account, and I don't see overlap.  The 1RR situation has been taken care of by comments by Shrike and myself on their talk page.  No other action is needed at this time.
