Evidence submitted by Fezmar9
An anonymous IP changed the genre field on a couple artist and album articles (Congregation, A New Hope and Vanna) on October 28. These edits were quickly reverted by myself, as reliable sources backed up the previous genres. If whomever is reviewing this case is unfamiliar with music related articles, a humorous essay at WP:GWARRIOR outlines the widespread opinions of those of us that see these types of edits daily. Shortly after the edits were undone a brand new user, Savagebladez, performed the exact same edits within minutes (Vanna, A New Hope and The Great Misdirect). After attempting to reason and warn the editor of his actions, he continued to edit war with a "my way or the highway" mentality. After being blocked, Savagebladez left rather negative comments on my talk page and in his unblock request. Today, two days after the incident, the same IP has returned to perform the exact same edits (Vanna and A New Hope) and has even left a little note on my talk page.

I would like to add that this is my first CheckUser request. I was unsure if this should possibly be filed under code letter B, but the summary stated that B was for "dozens" of incidents. This issue seems a little smaller than that... Fezmar9 (talk) 06:51, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

User:Savagebladez was banned within two hours of creating his account for pushing his POV regarding musical genres, and sending serious personal attacks to myself and other editors. Attacks that also continued outside of Wikipeida shortly after his ban. He continued to be disruptive and follow similar editing patterns using his IP address, 173.34.129.168. A previously filed SPI (here) determined that this was in fact Savagebladez, resulting in a block. After the IP's temporary block expired, the banned editor continued harassing me (here) and reverting the genre at Vanna (band) (here). Now it would seem that Savagebladez has returned as User:Iamhorney, who is continuing to harass me (here) and revert Vanna's genre (here). Fezmar9 (talk) 01:48, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

As with previous sock accounts, this user continues to push his POV of the genre of the band Vanna and continues to harass me on my talk page. Previous sock accounts had bogus "about me" style statements on user page which also continues with Objective11. Fezmar9 (talk) 05:22, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

WP:DUCK – The edits of Savagebladez, and his socks, mostly consisted of altering the genre at Vanna (band) and harassing me on my talk page. Today, this user left a comment on my talk page as his IP and altered the Vanna's genre as a brand new user Savageknife. And obviously there is a similarity in usernames. This user seems hellbent on performing the exact same nonconstructive edits and bites anyone that gets in his way. How does one go about requesting an indefinite block?

Savageknife blocked indef per duck. Also how convenient that when I blocked Savageknife, the IP listed which was blocked multiple for block evasion was autoblocked. IP reblocked for 3 months.  E lockid  ( Talk ) 15:29, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
