Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Inet read/Archive

Evidence submitted by Smartse
These editors have all made similar edits to Thorbjørn Jagland - either the removal of controversial, but well sourced content, or the addition of unneutral, promotional puffery. After Inet read was warned about a possible conflict of interest, Appell44 appeared just 17 minutes later, making the same edits. They then stopped and the IP started making the same edits. Then when I warned the IP that they could be blocked, Inet read reappeared and made the same edit. A clear case of WP:DUCK in my opinion. See the related thread at the conflict of interest noticeboard. Smartse (talk) 13:21, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

 * I've blocked Appell44 as a puppet and left a note on Inet read's talk page reminding them of policy. I'm not entirely convinced that the IP is the same as these two accounts, though. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 19:38, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
 * They've all added this section which makes it pretty clear to me. Smartse (talk) 13:33, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
 * No comments on the IP, but the two accounts are ✅. TN X Man  18:38, 1 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Looks like random IP, doesn't look that connected. NativeForeigner Talk/Contribs 01:34, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
 * In any case, the actual IP will be auto-blocked. SpitfireTally-ho! 08:44, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
