Requested by —  Dæ dαlus Contribs  18:41, 27 August 2009 (UTC) This is vote fraud, but not in the traditional sense. It is vote fraud in the process of determining if article consensus exists amongst editors. CU is needed as it is not clear cut, and the IP may not be related, but there is a good chance it is.—  Dæ dαlus Contribs  18:41, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

 * For future reference, you're better off waiting for more than a single edit before requesting CU. Nathan  T 14:36, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

– I highly doubt that coincidence brought WizardSleeve/IP to the discussion out of thin air. It's either a blatant attempt at meatpuppetry, or the two registered accounts are in fact the same person. Hence, we could use CU to look for any technical evidence between the two registered accounts. MuZemike 23:56, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

IP already blocked for one week, for vandalism. Amalthea 18:24, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Conclusions
Possibly the same person, but not in violation of WP:SOCK. IP is already blocked for a week, unless FuriousGorge comes back during that time there's nothing else to be done. Amalthea 18:24, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
