Checkuser is advised. See edit histories. Izzedine 21:28, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Evidence submitted by Izzedine


 * Comments by accused parties    See Defending yourself against claims.
 * I want to know what the reason is for this accusation, I didnt violate any rules and I dont know who user XrAi is. I want to see some evidence, its very easy to accuse people. Neftchi (talk) 21:33, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Neftchi is a nationalist who is pushing his position, and my neutral positions are all opposit to his. In fact the only agreement we had was about Mesopotamia, as the way it was worded was misleading. What's this fishing about? —Preceding unsigned comment added by XrAi (talk • contribs) 21:41, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Please mind your language XrAi, calling somebody a nationalist if uncivil behavior but it does not surprise me as you are Armenian. I have never encountered you on Wikipedia before and I only wish to contribute to Iraq article, I have no interests to gain from my suggestions at Iraq article on Azerbaijani language. Also if you agree on Mesopotamia issue please reflect it in the talk, we could solve this matter. Neftchi (talk) 21:58, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Izzedine you accuse me of socketpuppetry, I would like to see some evidence and reason for your accusations. You cannot just randomly nominate people for socketpuppetry and wait out a checkuser. I hope you did your homework. Neftchi (talk) 22:02, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I see now Izzedine is accusing me as a "problem editor". See here, I qoute: "This one seems like a problem editor. If you have further concerns about him and decide to report it, let me know." I would like this eloborated. You also failed to give a reason for your accusations, I hope your not misusing your rights on Wikipedia, I would be forced to report your behavior.

*Interesting that you're 'both' online at the same time, edit the same (Azerbaijani-related and Leonardo da-Vinci) articles, and use similar wording in your edit summaries. You have nothing to fear from a checkuser (if you are telling the truth). Izzedine 21:49, 3 December 2009 (UTC) *Accusing the other of being this and that (good way to throw off suspicion). Izzedine 22:21, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Comments by other users
 * Yes (Neftchi), perhaps an edit-warring report needs to be opened in addition to this, as it looks like you are causing disruption to many editors. Izzedine 22:45, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

The user who reported this has now twice blanked the page and asked that it be speedy deleted. I don't think that is appropriate, but obviously there is no need to pursue a checkuser and this can be closed up. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:54, 3 December 2009 (UTC) I agree that I don't think there is sock puppetry going on here. Everyone here needs to disengage from each other and go your separate ways, OK?

 * Clerk, patrolling admin and checkuser comments
 * A checkuser could still be done, but I withdraw the investigation as I think it unlikely these are actually sockpuppets. Izzedine 23:59, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
