Most of the BLP vandalism on Laci Green during the last two years has been slight variations of the same line of criticism. The point of view is espoused at length in this post. The above SPAs and IPs have all repeated the same things on the Laci Green article and a few others related to gender issues and feminism. The physical location of the IPs points back to the same location.

If a checkuser can confirm that all of this vandalism is the work of one person, and if a range block is feasible, then the ongoing page protection of that article wouldn't be necessary. Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:39, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

 * I already reported some of them here, at the Administrators noticeboard, in June 2014. Regards, Jeff5102 (talk) 07:51, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Indeed. But you can't request checkuser at ANI, you have to come to SPI for that. I'm not trying to get stale sock accounts blocked. It's just that page protection is an undesirable last resort, and if we're protecting a page for no reason except the vandalism of only one person, there are sometimes better ways to deal with it, like a rangeblock. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 18:19, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Of all the named accounts, all are except for  and . Some, but not all, of these accounts (including the older ones) are clearly the same person. GABgab 00:06, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Of all those accounts only two are not stale, but I don't think there is conclusive evidence to link them. Even those two seam to be abandoned now. Others, including IPs are very stale and there is no need to investigate them. I'm closing this case. Page protection should stay.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  08:13, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
