The original user appeared on the T-90 article here. Afterwards, another IP address appeared in this edit. Notice how this IP address notable identifies with the last one. Finally, another IP address appears and are all fanatically trying to vandalize the page. Khazar (talk) 15:58, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

 * I've moved the case to M60a3tts, as the article history shows that it's clearly him evading his block. He was editing from a couple of web hosts, particularly Linode. I've blocked a number of ranges he was using and extended the article and talk page protection to 6 months. If it keeps up elsewhere, let me know so I can block the additional ranges. I'll also file an abuse report to the ISP. Mike V • Talk 00:01, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

On the T-90 article, the sock master attempted to alter the information in a deceitful manner. He went on to create and account name M60a3tts which ended up being banned indefinitely along with an entire battalion of IP addresses. The same thing is happening now at the Pokpung-ho article. Please respond ASAP multiple socks are in effect now. Khazar (talk) 22:14, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep in mind that this person has been convicted before hand but the original IPs ban has expired. Khazar (talk) 22:27, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Well since there are too many mediocre administrators, I'll have to lay the obvious evidence myself.

1) This all started on the T-90 when this revert was made. He insisted that his unreliable sources were reliable.

2) These are the edit war diffs: diff diff diff diff diff diff

3) This vandal foolishly chose to be less subtle and created an account.

4) Here are the diffs for the reverts made by the account: diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff diff

5) These antics led to him being banned for about a week. This includes the original IP

6) After the block was lifted, he came back: diff diff diff
 * Edits by M60a33ts:

diff
 * Edits by the IP:

7) He had the nerve to report me here but was himself blocked for a month for sock puppetry by User:Bbb23.

8) He then created multiple IP adresses to disrupt the T-90 page. These are the following IPs: 85.195.116.174 104.200.28.5 104.237.143.46 66.228.43.154 98.126.87.109 98.126.59.24 115.88.156.52 108.171.209.82 104.237.137.195 23.239.13.169 50.116.38.83 209.15.222.178

9) After all this damning evidence, the page was locked for 6 months by User:Mike V and the the sock master was banned indefinitely. by the clueless admin commentating right now. Apologies. The admin that banned M60a33ts was User:Bjelleklang, not User:Vanjagenije.

Keep in mind that those probably aren't all of them.

10) Afterwards, I noticed a coordinated revert attack on the Pokpung-ho article. It started with this revert here by 1.233.171.186. Afterwards, the original IP address immediately revealed himself here because his monthly ban was over. Then, the following IPs showed up: 223.63.28.119 123.228.81.161

The latter had this in an edit entry: 하 씨발새끼 좆같은 유태인 새끼가 어디서 내대냐. 자료를 주면 곱게 쳐먹을것이지 diff

That's an explicit anti-Semitic attack. Please remove that ASAP.

11) The page is locked but the original IP address 220.76.25.116 is not blocked despite the fact that the user M60a33ts is blocked indefinitely . Khazar (talk) 16:28, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

 * , please provide evidence for everything you said. Provide some wp:diffs to show how those IPs "attempted to alter the information in a deceitful manner". Provide diffs to show that M60a3tts was banned "along with an entire battalion of IP addresses". Provide diffs for the "thing happening now at the Pokpung-ho article".

 * , as you can see, I've moved this to the correct SPI case with the named account as the master, not an IP address. Whether I, Vanjagenije, or someone else evaluates the evidence you should have presented but failed to until asked, I don't know. However, you are warned that personal attacks against other editors are not permitted. If you do it again on this page, you risk being blocked.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:48, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
 * i've blocked 220.76.25.116, and 1.233.171.186 for 3 months, as the behavior shows that it's M60a3tts and it appears to be a static IP. I've issued a 1 week block to 123.228.81.161, as only time will tell if this IP will be used in a similar manner. Mike V • Talk 17:04, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
