User:IPadWanderer was created after I had put up numerous Avaya producte up for deletion. User:Geek2003 is actively opposing the deletions and appears to have retaliated by putting one of the article that I created up for deletion. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 01:54, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

 * I have no idea who User:IPadWanderer is. The Administrators should be able to verify that I am a user with a static IP address and all my edits come from this IP address.  I object to this user making this false claim, but please check the facts and verify that this is true, also check the MAC address and you will see that I make edits from one computer. BTW - I don't own or even like apples products or IPads. Alan Liefting also forgot to mention that he AFD an obviously notable 3 Star General Donald Shepperd that I created.  As a mater of fact he is deleting hundreds of pages, categories, and links every month.  Here is a sample for this month User:Geek2003/AL-DEL -- Geek2003 (talk) 02:46, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * You can object to the "false claim" but please realise that it is only a suspicion. The AfD for Donald Shepperd was made in good faith and is not relevant here. I am not deleting any pages since I am not an admin but I am, however, requesting the deletion of articles. That a perfectly normal part of being a WP editor. On occasion I request the deletions of pages that the community wishes to retain, but generally my deletion requests are endorsed. As for categories, note once again that I am not deleting category pages but removing unsuitable categories from articles. I do a lot of work on categorisation but you are insinuating that I am some sort of rogue editor. Note that as well as removing categories I also add categories. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:04, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * If you want a more accurate record of some my deletion requests have a look at User:Alan Liefting/CSD log and User:Alan Liefting/PROD log. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:09, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * And this is a proxy for all of my deletion requests, including AfDs. WOW, look at all of the red links! -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 08:15, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * And to give more balance to the biased list that you created here is a list of some new pages that I have created. Admittedly there are some of little consequence such as redirs but still it show that I am building WP. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 20:08, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

 * . It's possible; endorsing to confirm. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 03:06, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

but - one of the accounts is editing exclusively from ranges registered to a large mobile internet provider. Based on the exact technical data involved, I cannot draw any hard conclusions, but I think it is not unlikely that something may be going on here. J.delanoy gabs adds 03:28, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I've taken a rather deep look at this one. Based on behavioral grounds, combined with the CU results, I've blocked IPadWanderer as a sock. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 13:41, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Just as a follow-up: AGK took another look at this in this edit and determined it to be a match. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 23:33, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Both are editing Avaya related articles. Flimsy evidence but it is a hunch. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 19:05, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * NOTE TO ADMIN - I think I should have listed this as User:Geek2003 rather than User:Shezzski.

 * Thanks for the headsup, but Shezzski hasn't edited since September, so it's pretty stale. Relist if it wakes up. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 03:30, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
