Edit warring on Doctor of Education (see history). There can be no doubt that these accounts and the 115.41.214.24 are all the same person. I suspect that a checkuser will reveal more. The four 108.7.x.x dynamic IP's, which go back quite a way in the article, also look like the same person. Biker Biker (talk) 14:45, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

I'd like to add Exactbird and Shippingpage. The former arrived on the scene less than two weeks after Goodwillforyou et.al were blocked, both Exactbird and Shippingpage have short contribution histories (see here and here, and all edits (but one for one user) are to the Doctor of Education page.  The type of editing and the content under dispute is striking similar to that when user:Goodwillforyou and attending sockpuppets were involved with an edit war.  For example, see Goodwillforyou here Exactbird  here, Shippingpage here (and take particular note of the antagonistic edit subject line).--Lhakthong (talk) 21:47, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

I've blocked and. is already indef blocked. No comment on the IPs as yet. Ged UK  19:05, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I've also blocked 115.41.214.24 for a fortnight. Not surea bout the others, they're not as vitriolic. Ged  UK  19:08, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the swift action. The way I read the article history is that the IP's kept getting reverted, the user got progressively more pissed off, created his/her first account and so the plot unfolded.... --Biker Biker (talk) 19:11, 30 August 2011 (UTC)


 * All the other socks and recently active IPs have already been blocked. I'll leave the master unblocked for now, but relist if there are any new developments. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 02:51, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

The most obvious: compare the edit content and subject line of this with those of this and this. Quack. Lhakthong (talk) 19:32, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Arg! I did not mean to put this under User:Onemoreforyou. Frankly, I think it might be the case that these are sockpuppets of the same, but the evidence is not so clear as the three above being linked together. Sorry. I don't want to delete what I already submitted for fear that might be worse.--Lhakthong (talk) 19:36, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Here's evidence that these three are possibly linked to Onemoreforyou. Exactbird arrived on the scene 13 days after Goodwillforyou (sockpuppet affiliated with Onemoreforyou) et.al were blocked indef. (and that IP was blocked for two weeks). Exactbird, Shippingpage, and Experwinner have short contribution histories (see here, here, and here; and all edits (but one for one user) are to the Doctor of Education page. The type of editing and the content under dispute is striking similar to that when Goodwillforyou and attending sockpuppets were involved with an edit war.  For example, see Goodwillforyou here Exactbird  here, Shippingpage here (and take particular note of the antagonistic edit subject line of this last one).

New user with short edit history dedicated to reverting edits on the page to versions previously made by Onemoreforyou's sockpuppet, namely the sockpuppet Expertwinner. See, for the clearest example, this and compare to this. Please also protect this page from new and anon users. Lhakthong (talk) 18:23, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

New user Zealander1 with short edit history, focused solely on the Doctor of Education article's talk page, starts same battles as puppetmaster Onemoreforyou and his/her sockpuppets, though now the user is at it on the article's talk page (the article was semi-protected after this person's other socks were disrupting and evading blocks).

User in question says here (point 3) "I keep creating ids because you somehow block my id." Quack. This is getting absurd. Can we semi-protect the talk page? This person has made no effort to understand Wikipedia guidelines, continually engages in personal attacks, makes false accusations, does nothing to try to reach consensus, and is committed to engaging in an ideological battle. I really don't know why I foolishly keep try to explain things to him/her.--Lhakthong (talk) 14:21, 22 November 2011 (UTC) Lhakthong (talk) 14:21, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Once again, new user with no edit history pops up after another of Onemoreforyou's sockpuppets is blocked so that user can continue battle. See here. I suspect this pattern will continue unless something more than blocking the user is done. This is at least the fourth time this user has created new sockpuppets, and the IP block didn't seem to have much effect. I have requested checkuser because of this last fact.

Once again, a new user, user:Nypd1919, shows up to make similar edits to the sockpuppet master and whose only edits in the edit history are for the page Doctor of Education. See for example, this edit, where the user reinserts an old passage about Teachers College that was deleted because it was not referenced (notice the old citation needed tag at the end of the paragraph), and removes the cited passage about the college that demonstrates a perspective the editor disagrees with. Generally in this same edit, the new user removes cited content in more than one place in order to establish the same POV. Compare to this edit by sockpuppet master user:Onemoreforyou.

Onemoreforyou's last sockpuppet was blocked on January 15. These sockpuppets were all causing disruption on Doctor of Education. At the same time of the last block, the page, Doctor of Education, was semi-protected. Less than two weeks later, another new account shows up, with the only editing (with rare exception to four edits to one other page) being done on the Doctor of Education talk page. There was peace on the article's main page for months (and it received high page ratings). Now that the protection is lifted, [User:PaterEst] is editing the page by deleting sourced research material that opposes the POV s/he hopes to purvey (that the Ph.D. and Ed.D. are categorically the same or equivalent), the same POV battled for by User:Onemoreforyou. There has been so much editing by Onemoreforyou's sockpuppets, it is difficult to find the exact edits that would match up to the recent one's by User:PaterEst, but here is my attempt:

First notice this diff 1, where the sockpuppet master, User:Onemoreforyou deletes cited research comparing the Ph.D. to Ed.D that does not support his/her view, and keeps the comparisons that do support it.

Then note how (a) User:PaterEst adds comparisons (by individual a example) that show how the Ed.D is equivalent to the Ph.D. here, and (b) where s/he deletes cited research comparing the two degrees that show them not being equivalent here.

Diff 2 and diff 3 show PaterEst and IP 98.158.115.187 are the same (note the emphasis that the claim does not apply to other countries), and this is important to show because the IP address a citation needed tag (on claim supporting PaterEst (and allegedly Onemoreforyou's) POV is removed without providing evidence here.
