Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Tvidenbe/Archive

Evidence submitted by Kingpin13
Tvidenbe originally created a unreferenced BLP on Gary A. Pope. I deleted the page under. I was later informed by a member of staff at the University of Texas, who told me they had received threats from "Tvidenbe", saying he was planning to create pages about Gary, among other members of staff. Also, much of the page on Gary was made-up (it included information on his religion etc.) With this new information I blocked the Tvidenbe account.

I later got into a discussion with Tvidenbe via email, after he emailed my through Wikipedia. Basically asking me who I was, to explain the block, and to unblock. I denied the unblock request, explained that the page did not meet Wikipedia's BLP/CSD/V/N policies to him. A few days later (yesterday) I received another email from him, saying I had again blocked his attempts to "tell the truth", and that he had tried to make some edits "spinning the truth into [his] favour" - in his words "how bad is that LOL".

Since this most recent email coincides with Stephan Matthai being tagged by, I suspect the page was created by a sock of his, the creator being. Funny-games' first edit being to the Cockrell School of Engineering. The IP addresses edits also firstly focused on the Cockrell School of Engineering page (as did Tvidenbe), their combined edits here, being very similar to Tvidenbe's edits to the page here. I suspect Funny-games78 as they are editing in a similar area, also creating unreferenced BLPs, they started using Wiki-markup very quickly, and started editing soon after account creation.

Would like CU because not sure enough about the Funny-games78 account to block under DUCK, and would like a sleeper check. Kingpin13 (talk) 14:40, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Note that I have blocked Anders.haugenson for excessive BLP violations as a result of the coordination/possible socking going on, independent of the CU results. –MuZemike 22:16, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
