 * Evidence
 * Disneysuit likely is the former plaintiff in a highly publicized lawsuit against The Walt Disney Company alleging copyright infringement over the Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl motion picture. Nearly all first-day edits by Disneysuit on July 25, 2008 involved adding references to the lawsuit throughout Wikipedia, including a link to the plaintiff's website. Additionally, Disneysuit twice created a presumably autobiographical article about filmmaker Royce Mathew, the lawsuit's plaintiff, both of which were deleted. When immediate concerns were raised about WP:COI and WP:AUTOBIO, Disneysuit began posting lengthy argumentative messages that included sentences such as I am seeking to file formal complaints and I DEMAND THAT YOU PROVIDE A SUPERVISOR. Eventually the user was indefinitely blocked for making legal threats. An archived WP:ANI report is here. Note that Disneysuit apparently followed his or her block with a legal threat sent to an administrator through Wikipedia's e-mail system.


 * Edits by IP address 72.189.4.182 and 68.202.250.31 appear to be coming from the same person. They show the same tendentious qualities, the same hostility to Wikipedia policies and the same determination to promote the lawsuit against Disney and the plaintiff's website. Curiously, the website reveals that the plaintiff dismissed his own lawsuit. It appears that the former plaintiff is now seeking to press his case outside a courtroom. Additionally, 72.189.4.182 is now engaged in wikistalking editors who have challenged his or her edits, accusing them &#151; and Wikipedia itself &#151; of bias, conspiracy and corruption. WP:AN/I reports are here and here. Also, someone tried to add similar information to Wikinews ; the articles since have been deleted.

 * The IP 72.189.4.182 has continually harassed me, as well as others (including administrators who have blocked him). In addition, he has concocted false claims (look at links; e.g. that I work for Disney when I am clearly not old enough to) and is legally threatening us and others. There are several forms of proof, e.g. here ; ; ; ; ; ; . This user is none other than Royce Mathew (the previously blocked User:Disneysuit, who is continually breaking several Wikipolicies.

 * NOTE: I was the blocking administrator and was the admin he sent the email mentioned above to. I still have it and will provide it to any investigating administrator or checkuser on request; it's practically the same things that got him blocked in the first place.  Please note that I am only returning from vacation and thus am not familiar with the most recent incident. -Jéské  (v^_^v Bodging WP edit by edit) 04:30, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
