 * Suspected sockpuppets




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

LondonLinux is a fresh created account who perfectly knows how to add information to Sol (Laptop): edits. Exactly registered at the point where user DSNR, to my opinion identical to the mentioned founder of the company, is told to step back and stop adding info. Possibly a sockpuppet, but I think just a meatpuppet, is Rezonansowy. He is defending systematically the addition of WeWi en Sol into the article Ubuntu (operating system). Among other times here.

Beside that, DNSR is here hiding behind my signature, suggesting that I am the one placing the PAs. Only later he corrects the signature but leaves it in exactly my layout. Remarkably, LondonLinux does exactly the same by using "my" layout. The Banner talk 19:05, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

 * I have urged The Banner to remove Rezonansowy from the SPI; I don't see any evidence for that charge. The signature thing is interesting and probably enough for a verdict, even without the similarity in other edits. In fact I think this is an open and shut case, but I'll leave that for another admin, since I just closed a related AfD and gave DSNR a kind of a final COI warning.

 * Regrettably, it appers that and  have begun to use Wikipedia admin processes like this one in their increasingly and needlessly personal POV war over Sol (Laptop). For example: AfD and second AfD created less than 30 days later, the admin vandalism noticeboard, now this page, and possibly others I haven't stumbled across. This is not to mention the somewhat vicious personal attacks flying on both users' talk pages and the talk pages for the articles. However, Banner probably does have a point about, for what it's worth. Ivanvector (talk) 23:14, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Also, the clearly experienced user is an obvious innocent bystander here. Ivanvector (talk) 23:16, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Perhaps, but he gave me the idea that he acted as wingman. I will apologize to him when my suspicion was incorrect. The Banner talk 23:19, 17 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Have any of you considered it's easier to copy paste signature formatting than writing the syntex every time? Yes I'm a new user to wikipedia but are you going to chastise new editors? I've been tracking this edit war on Sol (from both DSNR and TheBanner) and decided (after seeing it was about to be deleted, yet again...) to take matters to my own hands. Clearly, since I took charge, the article has been improved. Less promotional, more information about the computer and not company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LondonLinux (talk • contribs) 00:02, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes I did consider it, and it is not an argument in your favour. I don't believe that you did so maliciously, but it is very easy to sign your comment: type four tildes ( ~ ) at the end of your comment. The instruction is everywhere, but especially prominent in the editor. Many new editors miss it, which is where SineBot comes in (see your last entry). The fact that DSNR and LondonLinux both attempted to copy-paste a complicated signature, however well intentioned, is strong evidence of sockpuppetry. Ivanvector (talk) 01:51, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * I self endorsed the check between DSNR and LondonLinux. These two accounts are ✅. I self declined the Rezonansowy check, as it had heavily inadequate evidence. That being said found nothing during the check which owuld indicate a technical relationship between Rezon and the others. NativeForeigner Talk 03:17, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
 * LondonLinux blocked indef and DSNR blocked one week per CU findings. Closing now. Mark Arsten (talk) 03:25, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
