Another user, Password Saeba Ryo, was blocked after confessing to being a sock of Janagewen. This account popped up and immediately nominated User:Password Saeba Ryo for deletion; their only edits that are not related to that MfD are to Template talk:.NET Framework where they blanked a discussion involving Password Saeba Ryo and Janagewen, and to Talk:Physical Address Extension, which has also been edited by Janagewen. The three users also make similar language errors and express themselves in the exact same way. bonadea contributions talk 15:49, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Concur. I was about to report this one myself. (RR)'s first contrib (2014-12-29T02:44, ref RR's history) was just two days after 's previous sock  (PSR) got an indef block (2014-12-27T00:04, PSR's indef block notice). Despite his new status, RR appears very familiar with the other contributors to various talk pages edited by PSR . RR's sole interest on WP appears to be PSR's contributions to various talk pages. PSR admitted to being Janagewan and professed to creating PSR simply to ~"finish up incomplete discussions" (both claims supported here). RR somehow thinks that removing PSR's user pages (and the blocked-as-SP notice) will be conducive to retaining PSR's other talk page contributions and subsequent discussion (, . I can't imagine anybody having such an interest other than Janagewen himself. Furthermore, RR's phraseology, illogic, attitudes toward editors who disagree, and mercurial emotions (example: ) are strongly reminiscent of Janagewen's. Jeh (talk) 19:02, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Concur. Same idiosyncrasies. First edit after signup is Revision #640074237 in Template talk:.NET Framework version history. (Janagewen never could let this go.) Please pay attention to whose messages he removes. Second and third edits are in Talk:Physical Address Extension. (Janagewen's second obsession.) Now, the forth edit is actually an unblocked request for User:Password Saeba Ryo! Actually, please look at at the last edits. See how persistent he is? See how  has proclaimed: "You (User:Remover remover) are not User:Password Saeba Ryo." (But I beg to differ. He is.) Continuing down his contribution list, we see communicating with the same old editors (Codename Lisa, Dsimic, Jeh) but how would have know us? What list or category would give incentive to a new user to engage in communication with exactly the same users? This person act like Janagewen and talks like Janagewen. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 21:29, 29 December 2014 (UTC)


 * The reason to block user account Janagewen is extremely ridiculous! So what about this text entry written mostly by editors who misleading readers for explanation of 52 bits and PAE, .net framework template? What another ridiculous article I found on Wikipedia.org. To Protect the reputation of the entire Wikipedia.org, I should stop this at once!  Remover remover (talk) 00:32, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Janagewen was indef-blocked on 22 Nov 2014 and since then has employed many sockpuppets, some IPs (see list at bottom of page here) and some registered nicknames. Some, but not all, of the latter were mentioned in this old SPI.

Here we have a similar-patterned nickname, used to edit Edit Physical address extension (a longtime favorite target of Janagewen) to delete a sentence that Janagewen had complained about previously (but was subsequently edited to clarify wording per Jan.'s complaint). On the talk page for that article, dismissed my explanation of Jan.'s complaint, calling my explanation "nonsense". Also made a pointy and wrong edit to the x86-64 page.

 * Concur. Hi. After an initial communication in, this user has dropped all pretenses: His English suddenly got a lot better and became exactly like that of the sock master. His tone suddenly became hostile. And let's not forget that this socks is engaged in the exact same activities. Also, if this person was from China mainland as he claims, he would not dream of asking anyone to download no less than 7 OSes, each worth a DVD size. Janagewen wouldn't have needed to make so many sockpuppets if only he contacted WP:BASC, apologized, promised not to repeat his past, resorted to using some form of source to back his claims and didn't lie about being a compiler writer for 70 years.

I am so thankful for your words here. I speak British English rather than American English. So I might not understand you thoroughly.

 * Concur. He was already blocked but... it appears from SVS's comments at the PAE talk page that he's admitting he's Janagewen. Logic: SVS is a brand new username, but he's mad at me "for what I did to his account". I'm pretty sure the only accounts I've reported for anything recently have been sockpuppets of Janagewen.

this edit to Physical Address Extension, using Jan.'s trademark accusation of "misleading". Also a purely disruptive/argumentative edit to the talk page, again with Jan.'s signature all over it, and subsequent reverts of its deletion. Jan. promises there to use "Hide my IP" software to avoid further detection and blocking - clearly an unrepentant sockmaster. Jeh (talk) 07:48, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

IP .216 admitted here that they are serial sockmaster Janagewen. Janagewen and his socks have long been making a series of fiddly edits, usually with quirky edit comments, to X86 (history). This pattern has lately been continued by .216. A few hours after .216 posted the note claiming to be Janagewen, IP .58 takes up the baton at X86. IP .58 geolocates to the same city in China as .216 just like many of the other IPs already identified as Janagewen's socks. Jeh (talk) 02:33, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

This new subsection (diff) to talk:Physical Address Extension, one of Janagewen's long-time hobby-horses, complaining yet again about a point of wording with which he disagrees. In that post he notes that he's gone off to AMD's forums and posted a question about it. Turns out he's "signed" the post there as "Aaron Janagewen".

Editor EhietGeht pops up at Talk:X86-64 and continues with the "discussion" started by one of Janagewen's IPsocks, telling me that my replies thereto are out of bounds as they are "speculation". (This after I'd already noted that WP does not publish speculation.) No need for elaborate diffs here, just look at the signatures and time stamps in the most recent entries in that section. Editor has made no edits other than to that talk page - continuing Janagewen's fascination with x64 address translation issues. This is a much less obvious case than the previous Janagewen socks I've reported. EhietGeht did begin by using a distinctly unusual style of formatting their replies (here and here), using hrules to delineate previous replies and not signing their posts. (I waited a while for signbot to get to it, but it didn't, so I added the sigs manually based on the edit history and corrected the formatting.) I put the standard "tildes" notice template on their talk page, with an additional note about hrules, and their subsequent replies have been formatted normally. The unique style may have been an attempt to look different from Janagewen's usual entries, or this may be a genuinely new editor. But the coincidence of timing (picking up the thread immediately after yet another Janagewen IPsock was blocked), and the continued attempt to get me to stop objecting to Janagewen's incessant attempts to "correct" the x64 and PAE pages, is tough to ignore.

 * In looking over the history of this particular sockpuppeteer I noticed that he keeps coming back to previous edits, adding to them, striking sections, responding to the threads they generate, etc. In order to discourage this behavior I WP:BOLDLY removed all comments with the distinctive signature of he block-evading sockpuppets per WP:DENY on the four pages where he has been posting. --Guy Macon (talk) 15:36, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
 * User:AussieLegend partially disagrees. He has a point, but the result still leaves the sockpuppeteer with previous edits to come back to. AussieLegend is clearly correct about our policy, which I already knew, thus my invoking WP:BOLD and thus inviting a WP:BRD revert. Is this a case where we should WP:IAR? I am inclined to wait until the sockpuppeteer comes back to one of those edits first, even though the repeated checking will be a fair amount of work for me to do. --Guy Macon (talk) 15:47, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I concur. btw, 3RR doesn't apply when the deletion you're making is of an abusive editor's edits, particularly not a multiple sockmaster. Any new IP edit to talk pages of the articles frequently visited by Janagewen needs to be looked at carefully before responding. The default should be "do not engage" at minimum, with WP:RBI and WP:DENY as soon as a reasonable SP case is made. I of course have been among the "engagers". It is tempting (esp since I'm an instructor in the field) to engage as sometimes J. has decent ideas (although very often confusingly expresed) that are worth discussing. But all too often J. goes back to the unconstructive behavior that got him his permanent block. No more second chances from me. Jeh (talk) 16:12, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for pinging me. Policy clearly supports removal of all posts made by a block-evading editor, but you need to be careful when deleting such posts that they don't remove context, which removal did at Talk:Windows XP. One of my own posts was also removed, which is what initially prompted my actions there. Removing posts made by an editor before they were blocked isn't supported, and it does little to stop vandals. It's something we see in the TV project all the time unfortunately. The best action is to delete new posts on sight, and even that doesn't always work. WP:DENY is only an essay, it's not even a guideline and it's certainly not policy. It also doesn't say to remove all posts made by a troublesome editor. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 16:32, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

Edits to Computer program (diff), Front-side bus (  diffs) - common Janagewen dead-horse points and comments (e.g. "misleading') in edit summaries.

Posts to talk:Physical Address Extension (a longtime Janagewen obsession) regarding OS X (a recent Janagewen interest) here, and to talk:x64 (ditto) here. Both show typical Janagewen phrasing, manner, and approach. These two brief posts would not be much evidence for a previously-unheard-of sock case. But given Janagewen's long-term abuse, including his long insistence on arguing forever over these articles, and his recent involvement with the OS X article and talk page, a checkuser is justified.

Yet another sockpuppet. As a bonus, there's the mutilation of an admin's warnings on his old sockpuppet. Also can you please possibly report them to their ISPs? I think I heard they were using Verizon and Qwest, across IPv4 and IPv6. The admin in question, has the research on this. They are committing mass ban evasion, wikistalking and harassment and personal attacks, refactoring of other people's talk pages, disruptive editing, deleting of admins' orders.

Similar comment style at talk:x86 and talk:OS X. (For more details about the "comment style", please PM.) But I have to say that this is just an impression at this point. I'm not seeing a duck, but I'm hearing quacks from somewhere and there are footprints that could have been made by a duck. Jeh (talk) 19:20, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

More abusive editing at talk:x86. Copied a huge table (to which he's spent much time adding disputed material) from the article into the talk page - with self-admission of identity at the end of the copied material, here. IP geolocates to same city in China as nearly all of the others. Jeh (talk) 03:28, 10 October 2016 (UTC)


 * , if you dislike China, well, just do something actually rather than set troubles to me, alright! Is there any word saying that Chinese or user in China could not edit Wikipedia? Where the hell do you come from? America or United States of America? Let me see your IPs, can you expose your IPs to the readers? Oh, no, you dare not! Because you are totally a liar! Everything you mentioned on wiki prove it! Let us take a look at the articles you are involved, especially for x86, PAE, x64 and so forth, how can I say you are someone hired by Microsoft. If so, why not let us know your name? China, china, china, ..., enough! Over-enough, I am so tired of China and Chinese, do not repeat it that lot! Are you Chinese? Or why are you so interested in it? Are the fucked woman by you are Chinese, which made you really have passion on that thing too?! Oh, I wanted let you know I dislike those two phases over much! Stop mentioning that anymore! If you want to block me, just write my name, then my IP or user name would be blocked! Simple and easy! --- Aaron Janagewen, (can you spell my name? ) 119.53.104.217 (talk) 04:59, 10 October 2016 (UTC)


 * I have nothing at all against China, Chinese, or people in China who are not Chinese. It is simply a fact that nearly all of your past IPs geolocate to the city of Changchun - and so does this one. So it's evidence. Not that we need it because you self-admitted. In deference to your preference, though, in the future I will simply write "...to the same city" rather than using the city and/or country name. Jeh (talk) 05:33, 10 October 2016 (UTC)


 * To clerks: I made an error in filing this - it should be under Janagewen rather than janagewen. Sorry. Jeh (talk) 06:52, 10 October 2016 (UTC)

 * RESPONSE TO Jeh, you are just a nothing! Who would care who or what you are against? It is all up to you to against anything you want to. But after all you are just a nothing! Sorry, meaningless! China is China, Changchun is Changchun, people native to those places are themselves. But Aaron Janagewen is just Aaron Janagewen, never have any relationship with both of them. The only thing Aaron Janagewen appreciate is British culture and English, this greatest language. So please never mention China and/or Changchun when you call my name or point to me, OK! You do not have to show your excuses here, meaningless. What's more, you are welcome to report me and/or block me indirectly, I do appreciate your behaviour, and I show my greatest disappointment to you, this person, not only the name Jeh. But stopping repeating those annoy phrases to the things related with me, alright? Are you able to understand/comprehend my words here? If the next time, I use the IPs from United States, would you please refer me to America and American people? Funny! --- Aaron Janagewen

Janagewen's old tricks of trying to speedy delete one of my user pages, other harassment. Account created shortly after x86 (another Janagewen hobby-horse) was semi-protected after vandalism by Janagewen's IP socks. Username obviously refers to me, which is a no-no, and something Janagewen has done before in response to his socks being reported, found and blocked. Jeh (talk) 03:21, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

Another typical Janagewen pattern of making bizarre comments to his own SP cases after the previous report was filed, then self-reverted, before previous report was closed. Also followed up on previous IP's comments re edits to x86 and its talk page here, then self-reverted. Similarity of IPs and geolocation with previous cases. Jeh (talk) 19:34, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

(These comments are for the first three IPs listed; see addition below) These edits:, , and look benign enough, but the accompanying talk page edit here has all the usual Janagewen footprints: a) geolocation of IP to the same city in China as practically all of Jan's other IPs; b) these IPs are in the same /19 group as many other of Jan's IPs (119.53.96.0/19, third number between 96 and 127); c) kneejerk supporting people who disagree with me in content disputes on articles re Windows (see for example here and here), also his removed edit to User talk:PastieFace of 2017-04-14T02:52:47; d) other traits that will be familiar to those who have dealt with Jan. before, not excepting calling my edits "nothing" at every opportunity. (If the reviewing admin is unfamiliar with Jan., please review Jan's SP archive... or defer to an admin who is. Thanks!) Jeh (talk) 05:36, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

See also the flood of offpoint attempts at distraction ("why did you do x?" when x is not the subject of discussion), slightly-faulty English (e.g. "compressible" instead of "comprehensible"), and "do not edit" order here. All common Janagewen patterns. Jeh (talk) 20:51, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

Added 05 May: Two IPs in 221.9, edits (showing edit-warring) here, this time with an apparently abusive edit comment, here, and here. These two are from another block of IPs commonly seen in Janagewen's SPI archive, 221.9.0.0/19, third number between 0 and 31). Jeh (talk) 01:34, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

Having been blocked by semi-prot from edit-warring at Instruction set architecture, Janagewen has now switched to Comparison of instruction set architectures. Made one undiscussed and very significant change, in defiance of already-established consensus at Instruction set architecture, x86, and others, here as .177. was reverted with "please discuss", but re-reverted here, here, here, and as .41, here, and here. Five reverts in slightly under two hours. Now as .203, three more reverts here, here, and here. Also, as .43, highly abusive personal attacks left here at Guy Harris's talk page, again consistent language with Janagewen. As .7, ridiculous "but I'm the victim here!" ANI report here, followed by more silliness on the same page. As .204, harassment at my talk page here, followed by an attempted outing as .155 here (since oversighted). IPs are in the same 221.9.1.1/19 (third number between 0 and 31) and 119.53.96.0/19 (third number between 96 and 127) ranges and geolocate to the same city in China as almost all of Jan's other IPs. I have been told that it is not reasonable to block these entire ranges due to "collateral damage" but I have reason to believe that nobody else from 119.53 or 221.9 (/16, not just the /19 ranges) has edited WP for the last few days. Can't we just try it and see if anyone complains? Jeh (talk) 02:17, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

Janagewen is back with a different IP range than the two recently used and blocked, but 175.19.64.1/something has appeared in his SPI history in the past. Again, same city in China, same topics, same hobby-horses, same peculiar choices of English wording and phraseology (details will be provided privately upon request). Edit-warring at x86, attempting to restore his previous against-consensus version, here, heree, here, and (so far) here.

Janagewen is back with another IP in his new range (previously 175.19.66.153). Pattern is entirely consistent with the immediately previous report. In short, still very much WP:NOTHERE, and still abusing his indef blocks. Jeh (talk) 04:55, 18 June 2017 (UTC)
 * At talk:x86-64, restored previously-deleted talk page content (that he'd started previously) and then took an extra swipe at another editor.
 * Similarly, at talk:Instruction set architecture, restored previously-deleted section, and then added uncivil comments here and here.
 * As is often the case, just can't live without doing something at Physical address extension.
 * And last but not least, just had to revert one of my edits (for, of course, no described reason).

And he's back with yet another IP in the same range, at three of the same pages previously reported, reverting to the material he added previously, while blocked:


 * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:X86-64&diff=next&oldid=786266187

 * https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Instruction_set_architecture&diff=prev&oldid=786268480

Is it time for a narrow rangeblock? So far (recently) we have 175.19.66.47, .153, and this one, .130. Jeh (talk) 10:31, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

Kneejerk reverts of previous removals of its edits:
 * At talk:x86-64
 * At Physical Address Extension
 * At Talk:Instruction_set_architecture
 * At talk:X86

Of course, this geolocates to the same town in China as almost all of Janagewen's previous IPs.

Janagewen is back at his same old haunts and one new one. This IP is within the same /24 block as many previously-blocked Janagewen socks. (see this recent archived case). Looks like the rangeblock expired and needs to be reinstated? Jeh (talk) 23:15, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

(This is a comment to the comment below by GAB) Since Janagewen apparently has access to a very wide range of IPs (as can be seen by his SP archive history), only rangeblocks have been effective against her or him. Jeh (talk) 01:08, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

Pointless wikitwiddling at x86-64, completely consistent with Janagewen's many socks' past unwanted attention to this article, for example here. IP is very close to many IPs in Jan's SPI archive, and geolocates to the same town and the same ISP. Looks like one of the rangeblocks needs to be either widened or renewed. Jeh (talk) 04:58, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

IP in same range as before, same ISP, same city of origin, same hobby-horses: Talk:Instruction set architecture (diff), Comparison of instruction set architectures (diff), Talk:x86 (diff). There would be nothing particularly wrong with the talk page edits, but the change to Comparison of instruction set architectures is against long-standing consensus, and anyway (of course) indef-blocked people are not allowed to edit at all, regardless of the merits of their edits. Looks like the IP rangeblock needs to be renewed. Jeh (talk) 09:21, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Diff at Yuki Hsu. See the other recent history of that page for the other IPs. New topic area, but same old Janagewen language in the edit summary. The 119.53 rangeblock needs to be renewed. Jeh (talk) 02:51, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

Self-admitted in this diff. These are IPs in one of several ranges used by long-time indef-blocked user:Janagewen. (See previous SPI archive for the history.) Each range has been blocked in the past. The block on this range has apparently expired recently and so Janagewen is of course back. Janagewen's indef block has, of course, not expired, and blocked users aren't allowed to edit. So here we have unpermitted editing and edit-warring at talk:x86: diff, diff, diff, diff, diff, etc.

Suggest reinstating the block on this range for a year - or longer. Thank you. Jeh (talk) 08:51, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

As Jeh mentioned, the above IP is being very disruptive on Talk:X86. They keep constantly demanding to have their contributions removed from the article, even after we've mentioned that doing so is not going to happen. — AfroThundr (u · t · c) 15:14, 2 October 2018 (UTC)

 * anonblocked for 3 years with talk page access revoked, since the last one-year block with talk page access revoked doesn't seem to have been long enough. A lot of addresses within that range have open proxy blocks on other wikis, but on enwiki the range looks like it's been only this user since at least 2011.
