 * Suspected sockpuppets:

Landed little marsdon was created on December 5, 2008, and immediately began edit warring on Parapsychology, a topic MartinPhi (who was ostensibly on a WikiBreak at the time) was previously an editor of, his first edit including intermediate knowledge of wikipedia phrases ("rv"). His next two edits were the creation of his user and user talk pages.
 * Evidence submitted by Hipocrite (talk)

After a few more edits to Parapsychology and Talk:Parapsychology, the account went dead untill 20:06, 10 January 2009, when it suddenly became involved in the highly controversial List of topics characterized as pseudoscience. Martinphi was indeffed at 15:48, 12 January 2009. Much like Martinphi, Landed little marsdon has, aside from some edits made after a previous editor raised sockpuppetry almost soley contributed to articles on fringe-science on the side of more-credence.

While LLM was granted noblesse oblige untill now, he has returned to reverting Science Apologist, which was exactly what MartinPhi was indeffed for.

 * I'm of the opinion that this particular user is probably someone else: Sockpuppet investigations/Landed little marsdon. The geolocation for this user is UK, from whence hails. ScienceApologist (talk) 14:58, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I also do not think this is Mr. Phi. A previous checkuser on him came back unrelated.  I would assume the checkuser would have discovered any sockpuppetry by Mr. Phi upon that check.  However, per the links above it's clear that LLM is not a new user and is engaging in disruptive behavior on these articles, so I formally request a checkuser.  If that's the protocol.

Can a clerk merge this into Sockpuppet investigations/Landed little marsdon, where it is more relevant (the editor is unrelated to Martinphi)? Thanks. Dominic·t 20:19, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
