I believe that Fitzcarmalan is using the old created user Amrtarek as a sockpuppet. Fitzcarmalan uses Amrtarek account in order to increase the vote against/in favor of some Wikipedia. They both have a lot of contributions and they are noticeable to have the same line of agreements in a way or another. both voted for creation of Egyptian Revolution of 2013 without consensus, and Fitzcarmalan created the page. they have the behaviour pattern of good guy/bad guy approach in order to achieve their goals. I thought in the beginning is just a coincidence but after making some investigations i concluded the following:


 * 1- Covering up: They are both contribute when there is a vote on an article (either by support or semi-support), as in Egyptian Revolution of 2013, 2013 Egyptian coup d'état, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and August 2013 Rabaa Massacre discussion page.


 * 2- Panic: Once there is an article is created that is not in their favor or they do not agree about, then both contribute in voting against it, such as: Vote for pimp and Egyptian Revolution of 2013
 * 3- They do not come to appear at the same time or simultaneously on Wikipedia, as in Islamist unrest in Egypt (2013–present).


 * 4- They are colocated and from same area which makes easy for them to communicate and update when they need, and they use same style of English such as ¨https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Islamist_unrest_in_Egypt_(2013%E2%80%93present)#Kerdasa_Storming.3F¨


 * 5- Tipping the balance in an edit war: if there is someone who is contributed in editing war, the other is not there, as in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=June_2013_Egyptian_protests&action=history.

there are similarities among both of them and Sockpuppet is suspected. Mr.skylimit (talk) 11:57, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Is that for real? you choosed one I rarely have the same opinion as him, even in the articles you mentioned, in the revolution page my opinion was naming the coup into the revolution in the vote for the pimp article I voted for deleting vs he voting for merging with the presidential elections article. and about appearing in the same articles, we are both from Egypt, and the articles mentioned are the most important articles about the events happening in Egypt + I check my contributions I contribute on whatever related to Egypt, rarely with the user mentioned. I am not the suckpuppet of anyone and I don't even know his name. Amr TarekSay Hello!,  14:20, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

This seems like a frivolous report, absent of any convincing arguments, made by an editor with no previous editing history. I'm not sure what's going on here, but if there is anything fishy it is from the original poster. I'm requesting closure of this case. --  At am a  頭 16:03, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
