Evidence submitted by John2510
There's an editor in Pittsburgh who has been permanently blocked under multiple acounts as a result of threats made against me and an admin who intervened. It appears he's back.

I also reported him on the ANI board.

He originally used the handle Gypsydog5150. Here were his contributions using that handle. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=prev&oldid=383963871#Gypsydog5150:_Threats_of_violence.2C_block_evasion.2C_sock_puppetry.2C_3RR.2C_vandalism..._and_other_abusive_behavior. Here] is the original ANI discussion regarding his threats.

He then created an account called Hemingwayswhisky and used it to go through various articles undoing my edits. Here are his contributions under that account and here is the ANI discussion regarding that sock puppet account.

He also created a (now blocked) account called MisfitsFan10. The contributions for that account are here.

He also makes edits using a dynamic IP that all trace back to Verizon in Pittsburgh.

It appears he's created a new account called Owens&Minor91. Using that account, he's made this completely unsourced edit, which is identical to edits made by the other (now blocked) accounts hereand here. Here are his other contributions, which show a similar pattern to his original and other IP sock puppet edits.

At one time there was discussion of banning the range of IP addresses he was using. An admin noted that he reported the guy's abusive behavior to his ISP.

✅ the following as the same: No comment on the IP, except this user shares a IP range with another vandal and appears to be caught in the other's rangeblock. TN X Man 19:19, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, I've tagged all the accounts and blocked ThrashGuy, which wasn't in the suspected list. As to the IPs, only two of them have edited at all since October 1, so I think the best way to handle those is RBI. If any further issues arise with the IPs, list them and we'll deal with it as needed. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 19:34, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

This guy, who threatened both me and an admin, just keeps creating new accounts...

Here's the sockpuppet investigation of his various old sockpuppets: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Gypsydog5150/Archive

His editing pattern: politician - Tom Corbett; rock bands - Van Halen, Poison, and Anthrax, don't leave much room for doubt that this is the same guy.

Looking at the Tom Corbett edit history, it looks like he came out from under his IP cover to avoid an edit protection that was imposed as a result of his anonymous edits: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tom_Corbett&action=history

He deleted the ANI notice I posted on his talk page. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Rock%26RollSuicide&diff=prev&oldid=421890203 John2510 (talk) 02:20, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
