 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.
 * Editor interaction utility


 * 1) All three are new, Reeves.ca few days and CounterTime few weeks.
 * 2) The accounts have been editing with the same POV in Jizya article, 1, 2, 3.
 * 3) Reeves.ca claims opening "an account for the first time", yet in edit summary, is precociously demanding editors to be aware of the meaning of NPOV and knows all about the dubious template and other tools.
 * 4) Within a short period of Reeves.ca opening the account, CounterTime created and signed off on Reeves account as if it was CounterTime's account. Their edits are separated by 20 to 40 minute intervals.
 * 5) After the last CounterTime's edit, the next time stamp between the three users is by the IP user, thereafter followed an edit by Reeves.ca, on the same Jizya article.
 * 6) CounterTime has engaged in personal attacks 'without diffs or evidence', and the new account Reeves.ca is repeating the same 'casting aspersions without diffs or evidence' style. RLoutfy (talk) 15:57, 17 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Additional comment and accounts: HakimPhilo / "Renamed user 3928195555"
 * The Jizya article saw the same CounterTime / Reeves.ca pattern of edits with the account of HakimPhilo in September 2015. Both CounterTime and HakimPhilo accounts have been warned by other wiki editors / admin for similar style edit warring as in here and here.
 * HakimPhilo edits stopped in September 2015, the account holder petitioned complete deletion of account, the request was denied and instead, HakimPhilo account name was changed to "Renamed user 3928195555" here. Thereafter CounterTime account appeared, started editing the same Jizya and other articles HakimPhilo used to, with the first edit in late September. The account CounterTime knows and refers to HakimPhilo's contributions. Just like Reeves.ca, CounterTime account was also precocious as in here. The very first post of CounterTime on wikipedia was followed a few minutes later with another sophisticated edit here by CounterTime, and four minutes later a personal attack by the newly registered CounterTime account. This pace of edits and the nature of edits appear unlikely from someone who is truly a first time new account.
 * Both CounterTime and HakimPhilo (aka Renamed user 3928195555) have deployed the little known Template:Nonspecific, (here by CounterTime, here by HakimPhilo / Renamed user 3928195555), to tag sentences where cite is present but the page number is a range, an infrequently used tag by wikipedia contributors or anyone who makes the effort to read the cited range of pages for verification.
 * This combination of evidence suggests that HakimPhilo / "Renamed user 3928195555" account may also be related to CounterTime / Reeves.ca. RLoutfy (talk) 23:31, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
