Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Edipedia


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the case of suspected sockpuppetry. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this page. All edits should go to the talk page of this case. If you are seeing this page as a result of an attempt to open a new case of sockpuppetry of the same user, read this for detailed instructions.

User:Edipedia
User:Edipedia has been blocked 48 hours for his fourth violation of 3RR. He is currently using a sockpuppet, User:Editor 1, to make his edits in articles Han Chinese and Overseas Chinese, e.g. Edit by EdipediaEdit by Editor 1, and Edit by Edipedia Edit by Editor 1. Editor 1 has also removed the 3RR report that I filed, which Edipedia was blocked for. Editor 1 made the same edits in the two pages that Edipedia has edit warred in ; counting Editor 1's edits, he has made a total of 7 reverts under 24 hours in an article and 5 reverts under 24 hours in another. Editor 1 has also uploaded an image with a false license, the same false license that Edipedia used to upload his ~10 images. Moreover, Editor 1 makes the same grammatical mistakes that Edipedia makes. Lastly, Editor 1 tells us to "discuss" per this edit, but in fact the account has not started a discussion before that. Only the account Edipedia has made a discussion in the article, so the connection is obvious. Aran|heru|nar 02:33, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Please add User:Yepre to the list of his suspected sockpuppets. Account was made after User:Editor 1 and User:Edipedia were banned for violating 3RR, and edits are similar to that of User:Edipedia.  --- Hong Qi Gong 19:07, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem like he's going to stop sockpuppeting. Epedia is another sockpuppet (I forgot to mention it, though it's tagged already now). The new account Yepre has broken the 3RR already. I'm going to file a report to get the account blocked first, before we start taking action for his sockpuppeting. Aran|heru|nar 02:21, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Edipedia is trying to remove the sockpuppeteer tag from his User page. He has removed it three times already, and will most likely keep going until an admin stops him.  --- Hong Qi Gong 16:14, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Edipedia is now trying to remove the sockpuppet tag from one of his sockets. --- Hong Qi Gong 18:09, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Fourth sockpuppet (Contributions). A quite obvious sockpuppet. Apparently he thinks Wikipedia is a game. I suggest some harsh actions - if he changes, fine and welcome, if he doesn't, an indef block will be nice. Aran|heru|nar
