 * this ip address also appears to be hisJaabaat (talk) 17:09, 26 September 2012 (UTC)


 * his edits have three things in common- no sources, original research, and synthesis.Jaabaat (talk) 18:23, 26 September 2012 (UTC)


 * he also isn't just doing disruptive editing, he is flagrantly violating the sockpuppet policy by using them to restore edits from his other accounts which were reverted by other users. It isn't a case where he is innocently operating different accounts without abusing them.Jaabaat (talk) 18:26, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

 * - - The amount of common articles, overlap and potential confusion in those, plus the possibility of more being out there makes me strongly believe that a checkuser is justified here. Dennis Brown -  2&cent;    &copy;   Join WER 18:27, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

All three accounts are ✅ matches to each other. Also, found an additional account:. They appear to be editing from a rather static IP, so I can block it if further socking continues. Of course, no comment on the IP address. Elockid  ( Talk ) 18:36, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Overlap is such that it look like trying to create confusion across a general topic more than a single article, but still falls outside the accepted uses for multiple accounts. 2 week block for master, first time, indef for socks.

Profwujiang was banned previously for using sockpuppets to add disruptive, and mostly uncited original research to articles on how the history of various provinces in china are non chinese. After the block expired he resumed adding original research and created another sock account, Epp22. I suspect he has more sleeper accounts.

"The region was populated by the mysterious Baiyue people."

"Although much of the written records were destroyed and submerged by Chinese historical accounts, "

"As a result, any written records of the region was destroyed by the Qin, as it happened to other conquered states after the emergence of the first empire of Qin."

"The Yue state was distinct with its own religion, written script, culture, and material culture"

" for a brief period, before the Seclusion policy was imposed to force all the residents near the Pacific Ocean to move away from the coastal line. It cut off the lifeline of those people, leaving many to starvation. The policy continues even today. "
