Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Skanter/Archive

Evidence submitted by CaliforniaAliBaba
Skanter was blocked as part of Suspected sock puppets/Troy86. It wasn't really clear that he was actually a sockpuppet of Troy86, but himself had edited abusively while logged out and while using an alternative account, and so was blocked indefinitely. A few days later, he also went on to use throwaway accounts Skanter2 and Skanter3 for a brief time, but hasn't made any edits from those two accounts since December 2008.

The latest account, SkanterBrazil, is also a pretty clear WP:DUCK from the name and the topic area in which he edits (immigrant groups in Brazil, black people around the world). I let him alone for a while in the hopes that he was making a fresh start since a year and a half ago. Unfortunately, from all the warnings on his talk page it's pretty clear that he still just doesn't get it; he causes all the same problems as before:
 * 1) Creating non-notable articles
 * 2) Puppetmaster: should be obvious from deleted contributions
 * 3) Skanter2: not sure, see deleted contributions
 * 4) Skanter3:
 * 5) SkanterBrazil:
 * 6) Uploading unfree files and ignoring warnings
 * 7) Puppetmaster:
 * 8) Skanter2 and Skanter3: None
 * 9) SkanterBrazil:
 * 10) Only edits in user talk namespace are removals of warnings from own talk page
 * 11) Puppetmaster:
 * 12) Skanter2 and Skanter3: No edits whatsoever in user talk space
 * 13) SkanterBrazil: --- except for two most recent edits, which consist of ...
 * 14) Making obscene sexual comments, which refer to him being a black person --- JustBeingSkanter: ; SkanterBrazil:
