 * . I've blocked and tagged the account per WP:DUCK, and I've added an IP and blocked it for three days. Based on this IP and the previous case, the range would be a /16 that would have lots of collateral, so I don't think we can do a rangeblock. Having said that, I'm endorsing for sleepers and to see if we can get a more specific IP block. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 20:40, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Recently created the (copyvio, btw) article Najmal Volcano, which is a direct copy of Najmal Volcano (choreographer) which was yesterday semi-protected due to continued vandalism from User:Googlekerala and several sockpuppets. User:Journalsspace's first edit was to the talk page of that protected article, requesting edit access. When that wasn't granted the editor created the new article at a slightly different title.

 * Argh. Sock blocked and tagged; IP blocked for 1 month; articles salted. Just for completeness, I'll point out that even a /17 range block here would cause considerable collateral damage. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 22:20, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
