Evidence submitted by My Canada
User:Johnbibby is an indef-blocked user, who was blocked on 19 June 2009 by User:Coren. User:Aa42john was created in November, 2009. His 3rd edit was to create the article John Bibby (ship). The two users show a similar editing pattern, in that they share a large number of pretty obscure articles:, several of them created by Johnbibby, and then recently edited by Aa42john: Kola Ogunmola, Elmfield College, List of rocket, mortar and other attacks by Israel in 2008, Early photographers of York.

On some articles, Aa42john is restoring edits that were originally made by Johnbibby, then removed.:
 * - Johnbibby
 * - Aa42john

Both also are/were frequent contributors to the Current event portal, with a tendency to add items that portray Israel and/or Jews in a negative light, or Palestinians and Muslims in a positive light:
 * - Aa42john
 * - Johnbibby

Filing this case was the thirteenth edit of (their 10th edit was at WP:AN/I) and they show a surprising familiarity with Wikipedia jargon and procedures for someone who has only been registered for six weeks. Curious. Rhomb (talk) 07:34, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

Self-endorsing for CheckUser attention. Rhomb, you were thinking the exact same thing I was. That and the behavioral evidence is similar but not quite precise enough to block on my own. –MuZemike 07:37, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Johnbibby is stale, of course. However, I've blocked MyCanada for abusing multiple accounts. --jpgordon:==( o ) 19:26, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

My Canada has been blocked and tagged as a sockpuppeteer. I'm assuming that the socks are not to be disclosed at this point. Archiving, SpitfireTally-ho! 21:06, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
