 * Suspected sockpuppets

This is an WP:SPA with a history of edit warring, bogus citations and forum shopping, who exploits any opportunity to push their personal agenda. Not withstanding the general farrago, an IP reverts with the edit summary "Not all logical conditionals are material, if any." It's an exceedingly peculiar thing to add "if any", (daft, rather).

 * I've posted a 3RR warning to the user's talk page. The IP revert would be the fourth… I've suggested he simply self-revert and clearly acknowledge having accidentally reverted while not signed in, if in fact any such tacit acknowledgment was intended by the edit summary "I have, MachineElf.". Note the edit summary for his third revert today (explicitly as Hanlon) says "Logical conditionals are NOT always material, if ever. Refer to all relevant discussions for more." but no one except for Hanlon, and his alleged sock, ever suggests "if ever". Because literally every textbook on modern logic says material conditionals can be expressed using "if… then", Hanlon benefits from the mistaken assumption that he's not saying they're all wrong. For example, it would be plausible if people were failing to consider atypical logics that feature a special treatment of material conditionals… but people can't sort that out when, again and again, he misrepresents sources.—Machine Elf 1735  00:44, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
 * OIC, meanwhile he did acknowledge it below. It's the only edit you've ever made with the IP, so now, indeed, it's no secret. Thanks.—Machine Elf 1735  00:46, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

It's no secret that 96.33.171.225 is I, Hanlon1755. I have nothing to hide about this. I simply wasn't logged in for that edit because for some reason my computer, as computers and internet browsers sometimes do, had logged me out without me knowing. Hanlon1755 (talk) 00:21, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

 * The IP made one edit and the master is temporarily blocked for edit warring. We're done. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 03:46, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
