 * Suspected sockpuppets




 * User compare report Auto-generated every hour.

The user under investigation has repeatedly replaced "Serbian American" with "Montenegrin American" at the article for Karl Malden, despite numerous messages via edit summaries and the user's talk pages that this issue has been extensively discussed at Karl Malden was a Serbian American. Please see examples of recurring edits: diff 1 (1 of 3 similar edits under the original anonymous IP address geolocated to Brighton, England, UK), diff 2 (1 of 2 similar edits under the second sockpuppet) and diff 3 (1 of 6 similar edits under the third sockpuppet). There is no question that the description Serbian American is appropriate and correct for Karl Malden, as confirmed by the subject himself and in the sources and material included in the article. Such a label does not imply anything about the actual country of origin, which is controversial, since Serbians have migrated to countries outsde of Serbia and it is difficult, if not impossible, to determine the family root of origin. Therefore, to avoid conflict, the article (after consensus by discussion) holds to the version that Malden himself promoted, which is that he was "Serbian" and, having been born in America, also an American.

The sockpuppet, who continues to inject his own personal bias into the aritcle, without getting involved in the discussion at Malden's Talk Page, is performing outright vandalism and must be stopped. Any further sockpuppets performing the same pattern of erroneous and unfounded additions to this article, will be added to this list. Skol fir (talk) 21:56, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
