Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/UberCryxic/Archive

Evidence submitted by The Four Deuces
The IP appears to support UberCryxic's view on Liberal Democrats and is from the same US state (Virginia). The Four Deuces (talk) 00:29, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

I added the additional IP, but on reflection it is probably forgetting to sign in or coincidence rather than an attempt to abuse accounts. The Four Deuces (talk) 05:02, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

These accusations against me are completely baseless. I have no need to abuse other accounts. The mere fact that an IP originates in Virginia does not mean I'm using it. And actually, the above user is seemingly underselling his or her case, since the IP also happens to originate from George Mason, which is where I go to school. As it turns out, I was not in school today (I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays if you want my schedule!). I have never used that account to make edits in Wikipedia. This here is the IP under which I edit for this account, and under which I have edited for the last four years. I have been a regular editor on Wikipedia since early 2006, I've made over 11,000 edits, and I've written five featured articles as well as opened portals and wikiprojects. I'm very offended by these allegations and I hope they are quickly removed.

The above user mentioned the article on the Liberal Democrats, which is currently witnessing an ongoing conversation about the lead. I have had strong disputes with this user in the talk page of the article (as well as on other articles at different times), and I would not be surprised if this effort represents an attempt to eliminate me as an opponent. This user, in fact, has a lengthy history of accusing other people of sockpuppetry, and this user also has a lengthy history of squabbling in talk pages, which account for 62% of the user's total edits on Wikipedia, an obscenely high proportion. I would ask the user, from now on, to please let me continue contributing to Wikipedia without harassment. Thank you very much for your time, and I hope you dismiss these ludicrous charges.UberCryxic (talk) 02:17, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

As for the second IP that the user just added: that's the IP for which I provided a link in the first paragraph above. That's my home address, the IP of this account. If you take a look at its edit in the talk page of the Liberal Democrats article, I quickly remembered that I was signed out and signed right back in to sign my statement. That mistake only happened once there and I apologize for it.UberCryxic (talk) 05:21, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm not seeing abusive sockpuppetry here. Tim Song (talk) 16:46, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
