Evidence submitted by Ryulong
ZHU Yeyi is attempting to keep his synthesized method by which to romanize the Shanghai dialect of Chinese on all Wikipedia projects, particularly with my nomination of Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Rjanag/Latin phonetic method of Shanghainese and my increased attempts to get the page deleted on other language projects. Today,, who has had no involvement in any aspect of the dispute on any language project (ZHU Yeyi canvassed for assistance in Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Rjanag/Latin phonetic method of Shanghainese at the English and French Wikipedias), appeared to cast a malformatted "Keep" vote. Based on the fact that Great Guru has never edited anything outside of phonetics articles, I find his involvement in this debate dubious. Also of note is the fact that both Great Guru and ZHU Yeyi had edited the article in mid February, both adding other language versions of the article. Bollywood25 has never edited the project, but appears to be a related account. The IPs listed are known to be ZHU Yeyi based on his constant removals of delete tags on other language projects.— Ryūlóng ( 竜龙 ) 09:01, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

ZHU Yeyi is now attempting to attack the reasoning for Great Guru being a sock of his by showing congruence with between his edits and those of, because both have edited topics about Shanghai and Wu on en.wiki and zh.wiki. However, the issue is that both he and Great Guru have been editing other articles on both en.wiki and zh.wiki, and Great Guru is the only user who has come without any impetus on en.wiki or fr.wiki to edit the MFD page.— Ryūlóng ( 竜龙 ) 23:08, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Comments by other users

 * I'm not sure about all the IPs, as two are in Lyons (France) and one in Anhui, China. There was another IP that commented in the MfD that I also checked, but it was from Zhejiang, China (a province next to Anhui). At the very least, though, they are probably canvassed meat puppets (other people acting on Zhu's behalf): since this is an MfD, not an AfD, and the page was noindexed, there's very little chance that random people would have just stumbled across the page. They were most likely 'mustered' by Zhu. r ʨ anaɢ (talk) 21:43, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * At the very least, we can tell that 83.145.72.70 is Zhu Yeyi, based on this (and similar edits at the MfD mentioned above). Not sure how much that means, though; Zhu told me yesterday that he was just "logged out by accident", and off the top of my head I don't remember if there was any votestacking from this particular IP. Just something to keep in mind. r ʨ anaɢ (talk) 07:25, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

. The two users' contribs on zhwiki overlaps on a rather diverse set of topics, and coupled with the behavioral evidence on enwiki, I think there's enough for a check here. Tim Song (talk) 16:15, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
 * ✅; All IPs and users (no apparent sleepers). Proxy in .cn blocked (apparently the superpower is Amazing Proxy Use), and a short zero-collateral rangeblock applied to the others.  &mdash; Coren (talk) 23:45, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * So are you saying ZHU Yeyi went out of his way to find a proxy in the PRC just to be found innocent?— Ryūlóng ( 竜龙 ) 23:48, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Blocked and tagged. Tim Song (talk) 23:56, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

Coren has fixed the rangeblock. Nothing left to do here. Tim Song (talk) 08:32, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
