Both have edited CMX Technologies and CMX. It seems that this IP address and user account have some interest or association with CMX Technologies. The company's website was added as a bare URL to the CMX page back in July, by the IP address.

I have proposed CMX Technologies for deletion due to no notability, and Biciklista10 seems to have a strong desire to retain what is just a small stub. Danrok (talk) 01:23, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

 * It might be the same user, but I don't see abuse, thus could just have not bothered to log in. Closing, no prejudice to refile if abuse shows up. Dennis Brown -  2&cent;    &copy;   Join WER 21:26, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Closing without action as the IP's edits are growing and stale and there is nothing to do here.

All edit-warring against AfD-consensus redirect of various pages related to Doolittle Raid (sock-master's main area of editing, apparent creator of at least some of the pages that are being redirected), stating that converting to a redirect per consensus (and with summary stating such) is "vandalism". The accounts are reverting blindly (summaries even get confused about which of the multiple admins and others enforcing the consensus he is reverting). I do see some attempts to discuss his concerns (the AfD came after some comments at various user- and article-talk pages and PROD/de-PROD, all good-faith WP:DR) but now apparently cannot accept that his articles were deemed insufficient. I first came aware after seeing his boomerang. Obvious intentional evasion (these three new accounts and the listed master were blocked and edits undone by various admins and others). At least one of the socks was created within 24h of another being blocked, so there are multiple underlying IPs. Is a short rangeblock feasible to try to keep the sock-drawer closed?

 * Instead of pursuing rangeblocks, I've applied semi-protections. Tagging socks and closing.

Biciklista10 primarly edited the article Doolittle Raid and some pilots that flew in the raid, David J. Thatcher, Robert L. Hite, Thomas C. Griffin. Dean E. Hallmark and Richard E. Cole. His past socks only edited these pages. Doolittlefan and 70.165.31.225 just started up and first things was to restore the pilot articles ( and, and ) and add material to the Doolittle Raid that was deleted previous by consensus. Also left some nice messages. Bgwhite (talk) 02:01, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Quacking quite loudly. Changed the block to indef for Doolittle, one week for the IP and master.  Closing Dennis Brown - 2¢  © Join WER 02:16, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Given that he's socked before, one week seems lenient, but maybe he'll get the message now. If not, the next one should be indef, IMHO. - The Bushranger One ping only 02:21, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
 * (added after archive) You are right that I should have extended it longer, call it a brain spasm. I also agree with your future duration.  Dennis Brown - 2¢  © Join WER 17:03, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
