A week after GIOSCali was notified that DRN noted that the consensus was against GIOSCali's changes ("there is a pretty clear 4 or 5 to one consensus against changes"), Phoenix0316 is created specifically to restore GIOSCali's changes. If not WP:SOCK by the same user, then WP:MEAT between probable members of the movement. Ian.thomson (talk) 06:01, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

I can assure anyone that I am neither a sock-puppet nor meat-puppet of GIOSCali I am sure a CheckUser can at least support the former claim. As for WP:MEAT, I can assure you that with time, it will become clear that my interest does not lie solely with influencing this article. Phoenix0316 (talk) 17:30, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Based on the new edits, I'm going to up the findings to ❌ - the two users consistently geolocate to different parts of the country, across a range of IPs from different service providers. It seems very unlikely that same person is behind both accounts. Yunshui 雲 水 07:54, 27 July 2015 (UTC)


 * In that case, I'm closing the case with no action. It is hard to make any definite conclusion based on behavior alone.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  09:20, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
