 * Suspected sockpuppets

The user account of Gdniken was created only an hour ago and its only article edit thus far (in Jussi Halla-aho) has been to duplicate the (POV and OR pushing) recent edits of user Opfinland, a new user, who has had issues with me regarding the article. Both users have also been complaining about me in similar rhetoric. Jaakko Sivonen (talk) 12:23, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

The account itself seems to be a single-purpose account, as the only edits are about right-wing populism, racism and far-right. Not all edits were harmful, but especially the edits in the article Umayya Abu-Hanna were highly biased. Opfinland wrote in the article: Quotes from the article are likely to be the best description of the Finnish mentality around 2012: "On a Finnair flight to Paris, there was once a forty-something Finnish couple that came up to my daughter who was then two years old, standing next to the baggage claim. I smiled, because I thought they were about to say something cute. Instead, the husband thrust his head in front of my daughter and snarled, “Damn nigger, get your paws off the bags!”"

Thus it's quite clear his edits are not very constructive, and it's fishy a person registered to Wikipedia just to help him revert edits. --Pudeo' 12:56, 21 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Pudeo, that's not the only thing fishy about Gdniken. He registered mere minutes after Opfinland's most recent edit, created a user page in which he says that he is Swiss, and immediately moves to edit a page about a Finnish politician. That doesn't add up. Clearly, Opfinland has created the account as a sock, and is claiming to be Swiss as a false alibi. RedSoxFan2434 (talk) 15:08, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
