 * This appears to be another attempt to discredit me. Please provide me with the IP address of this Mitsukurina. I think I know what's going on.Toolen (talk) 01:04, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Looking at the behavioural evidence, this is proved way beyond all doubt. The evidence cited above is just a fraction of the total evidence of sockpuppetry, with much more there. Even without the CheckUser "possible" result, this would be a clear-cut case. I have blocked the master account for a month, and the sockpuppet indefinitely. The IP address is a college one, and I shall look at its editing history to see how much, if any, constructive editing it has produced recently before deciding whether to block it.

 * Odontomachus = Mitsukurina. Megalodon22 i dare rule at the time being, though further review may help.  please follow the procedure at WP:SPI to file a case so we don't have to fix the formatting. --  DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  04:08, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I've blocked the sock and extended the main account's block to 2 months. I'm holding off on Megalodon22, as with only 3 total edits there's not much behavioral evidence to demonstrate a strong connection at this time. Mike V  •  Talk  02:14, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
