 * I added and blocked . Both it and the IP (which is now auto-blocked) are obvious ducks. Master blocked for one week. If they resume this kind of behavior, they get upgraded to indef. Favonian (talk) 09:17, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Zenkai apparently has a history of sockpuppetry, and was blocked for edit warring at 04:01, and last commented on their talk page at 04:05. Ten minutes later at 04:15, a new user appeared and proceeded to continue Zenkai's position on Talk:Genesis creation narrative. User:The Correct Human's only edits were to essentially repeat Zenkai's wording on an RM, and then to create his user page (someone else added a welcome to the talk page before they had a chance to create it after creating the user page). Both accounts then stopped editing for 12 hours. Zenkai then began editing again at 16:10 (followed five minutes later by The Correct Human).

The similar wording and timing of the two accounts appears to suggest that User:The Correct Human was created for the purpose of block evasion and the appearance of consensus. SudoGhost 16:33, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' I suggest an indefinite block now. Short of that, I'll take it to ANI for a topic ban (for the third time). Choyoołʼįįhí:Seb az86556 > haneʼ 17:04, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

The Correct Human and Zenkai251 are matches to each other. TN X Man 17:01, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Sock and master both blocked indefinitely. Master was already blocked temporarily for repeated edit warring and has a previous block for sockpuppetry. Enough is enough! Favonian (talk) 17:08, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Zenkai has self-disclosed his active sockpuppetry off-wiki. I do not know if this is actionable or not. He has not disclosed his current username or IP. Elizium23 (talk) 00:39, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

 * Unfortunately, the checkuser data from past accounts is only stored for a certain period of time, which has elapsed since the last sock was caught. This means running a check won't be of much help here. We'll just have to keep our eyes open for accounts that match his past behavior, or hope that his conscience gets the better of him. Closing now. Mark Arsten (talk) 02:36, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
