 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by Guyzero


 * User:99.255.173.155 asked to have a criticism section added to Presidency of Barack Obama. The sinebot signature of this addition was removed replaced by User:Xinyu so they are apparantly the same person.
 * User:Xinyu indef'd 6 June for POV/conspiracy theory pushing on Presidency of Barack Obama and impersonating an administrator.
 * User:Dard Lord XXXIII created 5 July. Third edit was to User:Xinyu, complaining of the block and recommending him to be an administrator. Fourth edit (12 July) was to add a non-sourced criticism section to Presidency of Barack Obama, as Xinyu had been advocating.

Appears to be a WP:DUCK case of circumventing a block via sock. regards, --guyzero | talk 22:21, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

I was about to file on this myself, but Guyzero beat me to it. I will add that Xinyu's old user page shows a marked similarity in style (capital-T Truth) and interest (Bilderberg) to Dard Lord's writing. PhGustaf (talk) 23:25, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Looks like a WP:DUCK case to me. Blocking. -- Luk  talk 06:31, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
