 * Suspected sockpuppets

Both newly registered user reverting the merger of Pro-Italian Maltese and Italy-Malta relations, two page getting less than 500 hits a month combined. Reverting this page was the first action upon registration for both. Right2 made allusions to User:Maltalia, an user who left Wikipedia months before he even joined. The page had been a redirect for a week before Geocourrier turned up, and Right2 was not heard from since. The very same page was already a theatre for banned sockpuppeteer User:Brunodam, although I don't think this is related. ;Evidence submitted by Le Petit Modificateur Laborieux (talk)

 * This is an interesting request, filed directly after the requesting user was opposed by several users, including an admin - and seems more of a spite-filled request than anything. I maintain that I have absolutely no link with User:Right2, other than similar editing interests. Geocourrier (talk) 20:01, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I am not user Geocourrier, as can be found easily with a CU.--Right2 (talk) 16:08, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Answer to Nixeagle: Your critic is excessive.I believe Geocourrier posts from Europe, while I live in another continent: verify with CU.--Right2 (talk) 14:41, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

 * See http://toolserver.org/~eagle/socks/Geocourrier.html I'm not awake enough to think this one out, it seems fairly likely the two are related in some way, seeing as the two got off on the same foot with relation to a controversial article. ——  nix eagle email me 01:14, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
 * There are some similarities, and a similar area of interest, but there are also differences in edit summary usage, and as such, am inclined to WP:AGF, without prejudice to looking again if the two accounts demonstrate more evidence of working in concert Mayalld (talk) 11:19, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
