 * Suspected sockpuppets

Identical pattern of arguing and edit-warring on the "Pro se legal representation in the United States" article, particularly wrt expansion of resources and OR discussion of pro se as a legal right. Kay Sieverding is blocked, purpose of the case is to establish connection between InternetReader2, the IPs, and Kay. Avruch  T 18:45, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Note: I ran a checkuser on InternetReader2 last night and have confirmed that it is a sockpuppet of User:Kay Sieverding, although the IP addresses listed above are not currently involved. User:InternetReader2 is already blocked and I thought I had tagged it last night; if not, then it can be tagged as confirmed. Risker (talk) 18:55, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

Both users are editing at Pro se legal representation in the United States, adding substantially the same information as Kay. Kay was involved in protracted litigation and eventually sanctioned for her actions. In particular, see this diff with extensive background information about Kay's case. Comments on the talk page are also quite similar to Kay's style (see archive 4 of the talk page). Kay was blocked quite a while ago, so CU would be stale. Probably a behavior decision only, although possible to tie the two accounts listed here together. Ravensfire ( talk ) 17:51, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

NOTE TO CLERK - The header on this page says to open under InternetReader2, but the note under the InternetReader2 says to use Kay Sieverding. I think Kay is the correct page, but if you wouldn't mind changing one of them so my brain stops running around in a loop ... Ravensfire ( talk ) 17:58, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Editor has made two edits to the Pro se legal representation in the United States‎ article, Kay's most recent target. Both edits, make vague, broad claims about courts limiting pro se litigants and cite specific court cases that just "happen" to use a case Kay was involved in as part of the reasoning. <b style="color:darkred;">Ravensfire</b> ( talk ) 23:42, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

New user that has added material to one of Kay's favorite articles - Pro se legal representation. Information is specific to 10th circuit court and makes the usual broad, unsupported claims. <b style="color:darkred;">Ravensfire</b> ( talk ) 22:38, 30 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Added new user, Practioner, after similar edits to the same article. If possible, please check for possible sleepers from Kay since she's apparently got two socks at the moment.  <b style="color:darkred;">Ravensfire</b> ( talk ) 17:02, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

 * I kind of doubt there are sleepers, they were making new accounts for practically every edit today, but if CUs could look into a range block or at the least were aware of the range that would be a good thing. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:12, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
