 * Suspected sockpuppets


 * Evidence submitted by NJGW (talk)


 * Yasis was initially blocked in July 2008
 * Ah Poh was created in July 2008, but was dormant until now


 * Yasis has returned recently as multiple IPs recently to vandalize my talk and user pages (logs of this are at Wikipedia talk:Suspected sock puppets/Yasis)
 * Ah Poh has become active in the same period


 * Yasis has made edits in defense of a fringe petroleum origin hypothesis.
 * One of Ah Poh's first edits was in defence of the same hypothesis.


 * Yasis was initially blocked in part for edit warring with L0b0t at Carroll Quigley
 * Ah Poh has been edit warring with L0b0t at Carroll Quigley

The 3 IPs above demonstrate the 3 ranges Yasis is known to have used. The first two were used by him/her recently, and the third was used in September.

User Indefiance is an SPA only used on Carroll Quigley. It was found before to be "unlikely" linked to Yasis, but I'd like to resubmit with the two additional IP ranges above as behaviorally both were interested in emphasizing a link between Carroll and Bill Clinton in the article.

Please provide a code letter with the case. --Deskana (talk) 03:53, 16 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Conclusions

Given that IP range involved in recent vandalism on User:NJGW's pages appears to be an ISP proxy pool that doesn't pass xff, behavioral evidence is likely to be more compelling then CU results. -- Versa geek  22:12, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
