Anonymous IP 115.188.221.123 is ostensibly in New Zealand, but edit-wars over the same American domestic politics articles during mostly the same hours as Hauskalainen, whose page says he was in Finland. Also, the IP's edits are suspiciously similar to Hauskalainen, adding long and confused sentences that end up saying what Hauskalainen wanted to say regardless of what the sources say, and deleting reliably sourced quotes that say the opposite. Hauskalainen trolled the WWW for jousting opportunities, and was eventually blocked from WP when his jousts crossed the line into personal attacks; he also used a sockpuppet to accuse others of sockpuppetry, and an anonymous IP although he did say that was not intentional. While researching this I read about accusations of IP-hopping, though I don't know how that works TVC 15 (talk) 00:50, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Of the accounts listed here, only Hauskalainen and the 115 IP have edited in the past, say, three months. Everyone else is exceedingly stale. Per behavioral evidence I've blocked the 115 IP. Relist if the other accounts become active. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 03:01, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
