Evidence submitted by Nsaum75
New user(s) keep re-adding the same copyrighted photos to the La Palmera article here on English wiki, after they have re-uploaded the photos to the Commons (each time the photos have been deleted). The accounts are relatively new and have little other edit history. They have been warned on the commons about uploading copyrighted files. Diffs for edits here on En.Wiki:, , -- nsaum75  ¡שיחת! 02:30, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Evidence submitted by Nsaum75
User Jofab08 has a history of using sockpuppets and IPs to upload non-free images to the La Palmera article. The IP address 68.201.90.229 also is a sockpuppet of  Jofab08, and has been blocked before for socking. Anyhow, today new user "Ka Ho" shows up and inserts an new image to the article, and immediately afterwards the IP address beings making changes to the article. Since "Ka Ho" has only one edit and appears shortly before the IP, it appears "Ka Ho" was  created solely for the purpose of uploading a photo (since IPs cannot  upload photos). Jofab08 and his sockpuppets have an history of uploading copyrighted material to the commons and saying it is "own  work". Attempts to communicate with the IP address & Jofab08 have continually failed. I also believe a COI exists with the IP (since it primarily edits this article), but thats not really relevant to this SPI  request.

Anyhow, given the history of Jofab08 and his sockpuppets/IPs, I believe that "Ka Ho" is also a sockpuppet of Jofab08. -- nsaum75 ¡שיחת! &lrm; 07:52, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
