 * Suspected sockpuppets

Waaway and Gennapa are pretty obvious per the first posting a note, taking it back, then reposting it with a new name.. As both are posting in response to a new, fairly inactive user talk page, seems highly likely like all three are the same person with multiple accounts. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 08:09, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

I only have one account: PharaohKatt. This is also my email address, and my blog name, the same name I use everywhere. Please check the IP address, you will notice that it is the same for this account, the one that made recent edits, but NOT for the other two accounts.

As for Gennapa and Waawa being the same person, I do not recognise any of those usernames and thus cannot comment -- PharaohKatt (talk) 08:24, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * It seems odd to me that you haven't been active since your attempted mass terminology change that you ended around 7 am, yet as soon as this report was filed, you reappeared to defend yourself... -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 08:26, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * First, time-zone differences. I finished updating at 11pm last night, my time. I only just came back to wiki to read something, noticed I had a message, and was working on a reply for it. While I was working on my reply, these replies were added to my page, and I was accused of sockpuppeting. When I noticed this, I stopped modifying my reply so I could defend myself. -- PharaohKatt (talk) 08:30, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Added another that just randomly popped in from being a non-editor to jump to PharaohKatt's talk page and defend their attempts and sanitizing articles. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 02:21, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Self-endorsing for CheckUser attention. It's either socking or some strange coincidence. –MuZemike 02:10, 3 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, there's this for starters. That's two accounts ✅ as being the same;




 * The other accounts are ❌ to either each other or the above. It's strange that most of these accounts have been dormant for years, then starting up around the same time. On behaviour, they may indeed be known to each other & they all geolocate to the same country - A l is o n  ❤ 05:07, 3 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Conclusions
 * Somethings up here, I am just not sure what. As such, I am only blocked the two confirmed accounts. Leaving the others unblocked right now. Tiptoety  talk 10:10, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
